suaded that he can do his country
some service by accepting the nomina-
ton for United States senator. With

What he does not know is that a
ring of senators and lobbyists has
made his election possible In order
that his vote may aid them In a
scheme for their own enrichment

SMITH HIGHLY HON0RED
Our Member Of Congress Chosen for
Committee on Rules

One OF the highest honors of the low
or house of Congress is membership
OF the committee on rules consisting
OF the speaker, two republicans and
two democrats. Vice. president Sher-
man had been member, but his cleo
ton caused vacancy; and Hon Wal
ter |. Smith has been chosen by the
the republican caucus to fill the place,
which indicates that he has u high
standing among his republican coll
leagues In Congress. Heretofore the
speaker has appointed the committee
on rules and has In that manner had
full control as to what should or
should not be considered by the house.
Because OF vigorous fight made by
the "insurgents" against such auto
cratic power, two members were selected
by the republican caucus and two by
the democratic caucus, as members Of
said committee, Smith received ten
votes for speaker, most of them being
from the members for Iowa. This re-
cognition OF judge Smith not only
confers II high honor but affords him
an opportunity to become u leading
candidate for speaker OF the next
Congress.

THE B0NWELL BILL

Why should there be opposition to
the Bonwell good roads bill?
1t offers state bonus to counties
and townships that will build roads
under the supervision Of competent
engineers and grade and drain them
properly.
The bonus is small; it is arranged
so that no one county can get much of
the money and cities cannot get any
Of it.
New York State gives half ofthe cost
of all roads built under direction of
the state engineer. Pennsylvania gives
IS per cent of the cost. The Bonwell
bill does not offer much more than 20
per cent.
Why should not Iowa make VEN
ture other states have found practca-
BILE, especially when the state Is safe
guarded in. every way against large
expense?
The Bonwell bill does not mean
stone roads. 1t means In the main the
King drag dirt roads. No specific road
is demanded or recommended. All thai
is asked is that anyroad the state gives
bonus to shall be permanently grad
ed and drained under the inspection
OF men who know. -Des Moines Tribune

SPEAKER CANNON ONCE MORE

The sixty-frst congress met at noon
on Monday, March Is, in special ses-
sion, for the purpose of making re-
vision of the tariff. The organization
of the house attracted unusual atten-
ton, the galleries being crowded with
visitors. 'Uncle Joe Cannon" was
elected speaker without any struggle,
having 204 votes to 166 cast for Champ
Clark his democratic opponent When
Clark introduced the speaker he re-
marked that Mr.. Cannon was only the
second man who had been chosen
speaker four consecutive times. A
ruction followed over the adoption of
of the rules. and several important
amendments we're adopted by com.
bination of democratic and republican
votes. The speaker however names
the committees the same as heretofore
and continues to WELD power second
only to that OF the President.

THE BAND QUESTION
Satisfactory Proposition Made by the
Commercial Club

The prospects for Audubon having a
good band are very bright and if the
undertaking falls through it will not
be on account of inactivity on the part
of either Prof. Geo. w. Jaeger or the
Commercial club.
Alta meeting of the Commercial club
held on Monday evening prefer of
assistance in making it possible to or
ganize and equip a good sized band
was made to Prof. Jaeger which we
have later been informed is satisfac
tory to him in every way and will be
accepted at a meeting of the CONNER.
cial club which has been called for
next Monday evening.
Prof. Jaeger has not been inactive
in his efforts to organize the band and
has had talk with the male pupils of
the high school. A number of the
pupils have signifed their willingness
to join the organization and stand
ready to begin practicing as soon as
they can procure instruments, num-
Der Offering to buy their own. This
encouragement has so greatly satisfied
Prof. Lager that band can'be or
ganized here that he says he on Tues
day morning sent an order for 60 in
stuments to be sent here at once, the
order being placed with Carl Fischer
of New York.
The professor is very enthusiastic
over the results that have come from
his initial effort and declares that he
will have the band ready for service
by Decoration day. He says that as
soon as his organization is perfected
and ready for practice the question of
uniforms will be taken up and he has
no doubt but they can and will be pro-
cured before long. AS there are
number of good muiicians in Audubon
it is his intention to get them to join
the band, and they, he concludes. will
help greatly with teaching and break
ing in the raw material he will secure
from among the high school pupils.

A Question of Grammar

The legislature down at Des Moines
has been greatly exercised over a
question of grammatical construction.
In one of Senator Cosson's bills it is
made the duty of the sheriff and his
deputies ito file information against
all persons who he knows, or has
reasons to believe, have violated the
laws of the state" This was passed
by the senate, but when the house had
it under consideration an amendment
was adopted changing who to whom
in order to make it correct grammatic-
ally. The Senate refused to concur.
We respectfully refer the question to
the schoolma ans of Audubon county.
