BIG TRACK MEET AT SEATTLE
Tspecial to The Sentinel. ]

Seattle, Wash, June 2S.-For the
first time in the history of American
athletics, the best track men of the
West will compete on d Western field
against the East, in the great Am
erican Amateur Athletic Union track
meet at the stadium of the Alaska
Yukon-Pacific exposition, Friday and
Saturday. August II and 10.
Although western athletes have
often made good in the East, no
strictly Western team has ever com
peted successfully against the East
ern stars. 1t has been complained
that this is on account of the fact that
few Western men have been entered
in the Eastern meets and because of
the change of conditions.
From the records that have been
made in Pacific coast athletics in the
past few years, this should be one
of the greatest track meets in the his
tory of the country. Against the ex-
perience and numbers which the East
has rat its command, the Western
athlete will have an offset the fact
that the meet is held on western
field and amid familiar conditions.
Intense interest over the outcome
of this meet has been exhibited all
over the Pacific coast. The records
that have been made on western
tracks have always been held in
doubt by the critics of the East. This
meet will decide whether or not the
Western track men are the equals of
those from the East.
The entries for the meet will in
clude many of the most prominent
athletes in the United States. Prac-
tically all of the college stars of the
large eastern colleges will compete
and many of the men who achieved
fame in the Olympic games at London
will also be seen.
From the West there will be a
large representation. The men will
come from all parts of the Pacific
coast, nearly all of the athletic clubs
having signified their intention to
enter teams The list of contestants
will also include many Western col
lege stars. Huston of Oregon and
Nelson of Washington State college
are sprinters who are counted on to
make a good showing. Huston has
run the hundred yard dash in 4-5
seconds and Nelson is credited with
the worlds record time of 3-5 sec
onds. This record has been presented
to the intercollegiate record commit
tee but the matter has not been set
tied.
The track at the stadium of the
| exposition is one of the fastest on the
coast and it is being constantly work
ed to put it in condition for the great
meet.

BONWELL'S ROAD BILL

We are pleased to see that Chair.
man Bonwell of the committee on roads
and highways has introduced bill
for the making of better roads through
out the state. AS we understand it the
bill provides for aid from the state to
such towns and townships as are will
ing to expend money in this way. If
Mr.. Bonwell can secure legislation
that will lead to the making of good
highways in Iowa he will be entitled
to an expensive monument in honor
of such achievements.
Mr.. Bonwell has also introduced o
bill to require railroads to run motor
cars on such parts Of their lines as
are not accommodated by their regu-
lar passenger trains; and to authorize
the commissioners to require better
connections at junction points when il
can be done. We suggest that he pre-.
pare one to provide that the morning
papers shall reach Audubon on the
same day they are printed in Des
Moines.

NEW LEGAL HOLIDAY

The first bill signed by Governor
Carroll was the one passed by the
legislature to make February IL, OF
each year a legal holiday in honor OF
the birth of Abraham Lincoln, the
great Emancipation ami the martyred
President So from now ON, February
IL will be Lincoln Day, The birth,
days of Lin3oln and Washington
come too close together. We believe
it would have been better to combine
the two as Washington and Lincoln
Day, either on February %, or some
other date agreed upon for the oele.
bration to honor the Father and the
Savior of the country, Some legisla-
tor had the good sense to offer an
amendment to drop New Year az q
holiday, but 1t got no support, We
oan see no reason for making that
day holiday Five holidays in a
year are enough. Lincoln and Wash.
ington Day, Memorial Day, Fourth
Of July, Thanksgiving and Christmas
should be enough to satisfy ali classes
of people.

MARkING THE BALLOT

In contest down at Keosaqua
Judge Anderson ruled that the intent
of the voter should govern when count
ing contested ballots. In that county
as in many others some voters had
made cross in front of the name OF
Taft or Bryan and generally the judges
of election had thrown such ballots
out. But the Keosaqua judge decided
that such mark was not for the pur-
pose of Identification but to show the
intention of the voter This view of the
matter seems to be so reasonable that
it will be adopted in all further con-
tests that may be decided. The con-
test committee in this county followed
the same plan in counting the votes
on the candidates for sheriff. In order
to avoid these troubles and contests
the general assembly should put the
circle back just as it was when the bal
lot was first adopted, for which action
there is an insistent demand through
out the state.

INTEREST ON COUNTY FUNDS

We call the attention of our readers
to the semi-annual report of George
e. Kellogg, treasurer of Audubon
county; and especially to the interest
drawn on county funds. This plan was
advocated in the campaign two years
ago by Mr.. Kellogg who said that if
he should be elected he would recon-
mend its adoption by the county board
This was done soon after he entered
upon the duties of the Office in anuary
1907. At the end of the year it was
found that for the ten months he had
received 1926. 33; and at the close of
1908 the amount for the year had reach
ed $500. 81. making total for the year
and ten months of 1926. 30. This amount
was received at the rate of and q
per cent This year the amount
will probably be larger because the
rate received from the Commercial
Savings Bank, which was the highest
bidder, will he 81 and A. Four
and half per cent on time deposits
and three and half per cent on daily
balances. This matter Is receiving
attention at Des Moines and law
will probably be passed requiring
county boards to put funds at interest
and at the same time pay the expense
of the bond required from the treas
urer which would be matter of equity
and justice to that officer.

AT the present time the subscription
price of The Nonpareil is less than

we're heartily given even though with
feelings of sadness.

local society here for some years and
have had frequent services in the evan

it becomes necessary to reOrganiae in

ment Is that one minister will have
