SOME ABSURD RUMoRs.

The report given some circulation
by sentional newspaper to the effect
that President Taft is opposing the cleo
ton of Green for congress in the Ninth
district may be set down as fabrica-
ton pure and simply. There is simply
nothing to it.
Such effort ON the part of the presi-
dent would be absurd. Moreover, il
such effort were made it would react
in Green's favor.
Likewise the report that republicans
are divided and fighting themselves may
be so classified. The truth of the situa-
ton is that the republicans were seldom
more united in the district than they
are at this time. Judge Green will get
Glove to unanimous republican vote
and he will get practically as many
democratic votes as he loses republican.
The tide is running strongly toward
Green. Reports from every section Of
the district are more favorable than the
most sanguine of his supporters antici-
pated in the beginning of the campaign.

Though last Sunday was dark and
cloudy and somewhat rainy it did not
deter the veterans and other citizens OF
Audubon from giving proper observance
to Memorial sunday The services
were held at the NJ. E. Church where
the members of the Grand Army Post
and the Women's Relief Corps attended
in a body The Choir furnished appro-
pirate and inspiring music. Rev. j. H..
Freedline, the pastor, delivered an ex-
cellent address upon the Transforms
ton of the Sword" Rev. Ed. b. Cous-
ms, a member of Allison Post, made
the closing prayer in words and manner
that touched the hearts and minds OF
the entire audience.
DECORATION DAY EXERCISES
Tuesday morning looked dark and
gloomy. The outlook was not good for
Decoration Day. The morning was
much like that a year ago. But as 1t
did then the clouds began to lift about
or 10 o'clock and the sun shed his
light and warmth over all the beauties
of nature. The afternoon was delight
full and large crowd of people came
in from the country to join in giving
suitable recognition to the day, and
what it represents.
The exercises were held at the Meth
odist church. Following the usual
custom the Grand Army Post and Re-
lief Corps attended in body. They
were led by about twenty-five young
girls carrying flags. The church was
crowded and many outside. Following
we give the program:

Heroes" was strong and forceful but
tender and eloquent. The services at
the church being over the march to the

drum. At the monument to the "Un.
known Dead" ritual service was

a fine voice for outdoor speaking and
the crowd could easily hear him pay q
fitting tribute to the patriots who gave

done. Long live the day or
which our people will meet and dc

Women Want The Ballot.

Newspaper reports say that the club
women assembled at Sioux City last
week were much surprised when Mrs.
John A. Nash of Audubon, chairman
of the committee, read the first resolu-
tions which declared in favor of ballot
box free to all without regard to sex.
But it seemed to strike their fancy and
it was unanimously adopted. These
women will probably keep pounding
away until the men are tired out and
will make no further resistance to their
demands. Chancellor Day of the great
Methodist University at Syracuse, New
York is evidently giving up the contest
according to the following statement
which is charged up to his account.
DR.. Day says:
You can't control women, even
though you claim to be the head of the
family You will learn to obey her
commands meekly-especially when she
insists that she is being robbed of her
rights. This is getting little on the
border of the suffragette and / am frank
to say that don't know where am on
that question. am in favor of letting
woman have what she wants and of
letting her do as she pleases.

Some chautauqua News.

The work among the children this
year will take up the new Scout"
idea. This institution is spreading over
the country like wildfire. The boy
Scouts" and Camp Fire Girls" move
ments will be adapted so as to be work
ed together during the Chautauqua.
There will be Chautauqua man along
ahead of the opening day who will send
up some big paper balloons that will
let loose orders for free tickets, and the
lucky boy finding these will get to go
to the Chautauqua free.
Much speculation has been INDUCED
among the lovers of the lower animals
as to whether horse can understand
human speech. The little pony that is
carried with Garretta's collection of
trained animals and birds shows every
indication of understanding speech.
And yet it is probable that he is only a
well trained performer that has learned
after patient drill and discipline the
fact that certain combinations of words
require him to do certain things.

that are clamoring for Canadian reci-
procity, and after Canadian recipro-

they could better afford to do without
free wood pulp than without business.
III the farmers are made to suffer, so
will those who have business with

What Free Trade Never Did.

Free trade has never raised the price
of land on its products; never raised the
wages of the laboring man; never pro-
duced sufficient revenues to defray the
the running expenses of the government,
or decreased the rates of interest on
money loaned. Every war in which
the United States has been engaged has
been substantially paid for by revenues
produced by protective tariff.-Leon
