The Same In Audubon

The republican party in Guthrie
county should and are going to make,
a strong effort topoll the full party vote.
Republicans everywhere are alive to
the situation, and are going to improve
the opportunity now afforded them but
once in two years. General apathy
should be chloroformed and relegated to
oblivion. Corn is fast maturing, and
will soon be in condition to crib, and the
farmers are well along with all their
work. Decide at once that you are GO
ing to attend the coming election and
contribute your share to republican
victory all along the line. -Guthrie
Times.

Work And Vote The Ticket.

The Progressive Telegraph of Allan
tic rightly says:
The way to be republican is to
work for the ticket: announce your
intention to support it; stand
square-toed against the nominees of the
democratic party. And do it all the
time. The true test of republicanism
is sticking by the party when its
nominations are made. No one ever
expects great organization like the
republican party to run along forever
without any differences. Too much
progress is made in the party not to
stir up muss once in awhile. When
decisions are made in primary or caucus
they should be abided by especially in
the absence of any fraud or dishonOr.

Another Escape From Jail.

We see by the Grinnell Herald that
'Scotty Gibson" who was in Jail at
for burglarizing McKara-
hans store has escaped. Instead of
keeping him locked in cell, where he
belonged, he was allowed to roam around
the corridor on pleasant afternoons from
which he made his escape by the use of
a poker. 1t seems a pity that some
counties cant elect sheriffs who can keep
burglars and horse thieves locked up SO
they cannot get ont and run away.

by nll odds the greatest example OF brute
education the world has ever known.
Trained senl acts OF the past should not
be thought Of In connection with these
new ones. As jugglers. acrobats, gym
nasts. tumblers and balancers they are
vastly more accomplished In their per
formances than any human circus actor
that ever breathed. They Jugsle flaming
brands with absolute exactness and
never miss; they toss balls high In the
air AMI catch them on their noses; they
play on musical instruments real old
tunes that every one In the audience can
recognize. They skip the rope, ride
horses. discharge firearms and play BILL
linrds. There Ia only one thing they can
not do-and that ls talk.
There are three herds of the best train
ed elephants In the world, performing In
three rings at the same time. Their feats
are all new to the public. Three COM
ranics OF dog actors perform with them.
At ono time during the number these ele-
plants form gigantic pyramid. The
animal MT the apex o. the group Is 20 feet
from the ground. He holds his trunk os
high as he can above him. On the very
tip of the trunk sits n dog.
