Remedy for BaIky Horse

A new balky horse remedy was
tried in Sherman recently which
proved very effective. A grocery
merchant hitched a new, purch ase
to delivery wagon, and the animal
refused to start. After trying for
about an hour to get the animal in
the notion to work, man came
along and offered what he termed
an Infalllble remedy. Taking a
bottle of turpcntine he sprinkled
some of the fluid on the horses
fore legs and breast. The driver
then took bis seat in the wagon
and held his lines tight. In few
minutes the horse commenced to
prance and show signs of wanting
to 90, but was held in restraint for
a moment. When the driver hnal.
ly spoke the word the horse went
off at fine gait and showed nc
more signs of baking.

Judge Green Names Richardson.

Green will recommend Ed l.. Richard
son, editor of the Cumberland Enter
prise for postmaster at that place.
While some papers in Cass county were
bolting Judge Green's nomination Mr..
Richardson gave him the most earnest
support. The Telegraph further says:
Republicans of the county in gen
eral and of Union township in parti-
cular, will strongly commend Judge
w. r. Green for his recommendation
of Ed l.. Richardson of Cumberland
for the position of postmaster at that
place. Mr.. Richardson is good re-
publican, bright newspaper man.
enjoys the confidence of the people,
and will give excellent service as
postmaster. Where there are two or
three candidates for postoffice, the
congressman of course, can only re-
commend one. Mr.. Bond, who was
q candidate, is a thoroughly capable
gentleman and Mr.. Richardson has
conceded it from the first. The con.
test has been carried ON in a gen.
tlemanly manner without any mud
singing. The Telegraph does moi
hesitate to commend Judge Green fol
his selection and this paper shall ex
pect to hear of Ed L. Richardson
making a record in the Office which
everyone will be proud of.

Press dispatches from Spirit Lake
state that Professor Stanton of the
civil engineering department of the
college and his class of fifty students
doing field work about the Iowa great
lakes have made an important dis
covery-one that puts beyond all
possible dispute the fact that in the
lake region is the highest point be-
tween the Allegheny and Rocky
Mountains. At a point near the
Beulah church east of East Okoboji
the Ames engineers have discovered
q point of land twenty -one feet higher
than what has heretofore been
considered the high point. This
puts out of the running all other
places which have claimed to be
about the same height as the old high
point. This discovery is an important
one in view of the movement now afoot
to have established there United
States weather observatory because of
the high altitude. The new point is
about 1.721 feet above sea level Be
cause of this high altitude it is being
urged upon the government weather
bureau that this would be good place
for an observatory.

THE CANNING FACTORY
STARTED YESTERDAY.
New Buildings, New Machinery, New
Water Plant and Electric Lights
Are Fine improvements.

Since closing down their plant last
fall, The Audubon Canning Company
has remodeled all the machinery andplac-
ed it in No. condition for this season.
They have also installed a new mixer,
new can-dipping machine and a new
capper, to put the caps ON the cans thus
saving the labor of two persons. They
have also built new store room, 40xlOO
| feet two story high, new generator room
and added new third story on the east
side of the main building. The new
store room has cement floor put in by
the Manager, r. j. Loveland There is
an elevator in it and the southwest
corner has four compartment label
locker for the four different brands of
labels they will use. There is $1,000
worth of barreled sugar and SOC, 900 cans
already in the store room to begin with.
There is a forty foot driveway between
storeroom and the main building and
runway connecting the two at the Sec
ond floor. The third floor of the main
building is double, interlined with tar
paper and lead jointed, making it water
proof. The cans to be filled start from
the storeroom and roll ON a gravity
conveyer to the filling machine at whose
entrance is an automatic device that
keeps the cans right side up. thus saw
ing the company great deal of ex-
pense.
A good drainage system is all through
the building and each room is supplied
with tank of water where the en-
ployes can wash The machine betting
is boxed around where necessary so as
to avoid accident or injury TO the help.
There are four cutting machines from
which the corn goes to the silzer, then
to the automatic mixer where the syrup
is run through a pipe from large
tank and automatically mixed with the
corn before going into the filler The
cans when filled go under the capp-
ing machine and then on to soldering
machine. If any air holes are left in a
can they are soldered by men and made
air tight before placed in steel crates
and lowered into the cookers. They
have new Westinghouse generator and
their own electric light plant. The
light plant was installed under the man
agement of Carl G.. Hoover, who is an
expert in electricity. They have water
system of their own, independent of the
city and will have all the water they
need, having a well dug from which the
water will be used for the. corn and
syrup and will use water from the creek
near by for cleaning purposes.
They have in stock 80, 900 cases and an
expert box maker in Mr.. Fred Hoenke to
supply them with more All in all the Au-
dubon Canning Co. have as fine a plant
as will be found in this part of the state.
They began operations yesterday and
will employ from 1875 to $50 people dur
ing the canning season and some all
year round which means a great deal
TO the people of Audubon. Visitors
will be yssicoaarto es1sne and Inspect
the plant and will be shown the work
ings of the concern by the manager or
curteous employees.

The Carroll Sentinel Retires.

After life of thirty-six years the
Carroll Sentinel having been sold to the
other papers in that city retires from
business. The Sentinel has been one of
the best papers coming to our table and
we regret to lose it from our list of ex-
changes. Mr.. Colclo, the editor decided
to withdraw from the field because four
papers in Carroll were too many for
success. There was time when most
anyone who could geta case of type and
little job press could start paper.
But now it is different. 1t takes money
and ability to meet the demands of the
times in order to succeed. Editor
Colclo says he has lived in Carroll
county SO years and for the present at
least he expects TO remain there The
Republican joins many others in wish
ing him well.

Rush Benedict Capable Man.

This paper is firmly of the opinion that
the very best man the republicans of
Iowa could name for secretary of state
at the primaries next year is G. r.
Benedict of Shelby county. Mr.
Benedict is not an office seeker in the
sense that he has his hand out for
something all the time. He has, how
ever, served as chef clerk of the lower
house of the Iowa legislature several
terms and has been the most proficient
man in that capacity that the state has
ever had. So valuable has he been in
the capacity of clerk that he has times
without number saved the state many
thousands of dollars and the Legislators
from serious blunders. Rush Bene-
dict, as he is known to all his friends,
is capable man in any capacity but we
believe he would prove particularly
useful to the state in the office we have
named. The writer has known Rush
Benedict for many years and never once
have we found him other than square"
in every particular. We believe that
the friends Mr. Benedict has made dur
ing the years given to the performance
of the duties of chief clerk owe it to
themselves and to the state to turn and
make him secretary of state. Charles

From The IndianoIa Herald.

OF late Mr.. Ingham has shown some
independence of thought which is not
just the way of Senator Cummins
thinking, hence the forgetting of Mr..
Ingham in his letter of confidence.
The Herald is of the opinion that Mr..
Cummins never would Eave arrived in
any political position in life, had he not
been championed by the Register and
Leader, which in season and out of sea-
son defended him. And had it not been
for that paper he could never have re-
covered and re-established himself in
the confidence of many of his friends
after some of his extreme ''slop-overs. T"
in his speeches.
We are noted for being very sympa-
thetic with those who meet with dis
appointments in life and are betrayed
by those that they expect the most
from, but we must be hard hearted in
this case, as we are rather enjoying Mr..
Ingham's embarrassment, for he knew
better-for he had previously tasted
the bitter fruit from the same tree.

Good Example To Follow.

Bro. Briggs of the Anita Republican
says: "A few years ago we set out a
little row of apple trees along the side
of our little Anita home, just out side
the sidewalk. They were Whitney No.
20 crabs and Yellow Transparents.
Some of the neighbors laughed at us de-
claring 1.-THE boys will take all the apples
and they will do you no good. Well
the trees grew and the Transparents are
about done for this season and we have
had lot of them and the Whitneys
win soon be ripe, and there will be as
many as we can use and probablymore.
We are now quite sure that those apple
trees have been more use to us than a
row Of naples or box elders would
have been.

CONGRESSMAN GREEN
MAKES MAIDEN SPEECH
His Discussion OF The Hosiery
Question Elected Response
From Chairman Underwood
And Applause From Re-
DubIicaus

Our special correspondent in Wash
ington writes as follows; A majority
of the Iowa delegation in Congress side
in with President Taft for deferring
the revision of the tariff schedules, as
was indicated by the vote taken in the
House on the motion of Congressman
Payne to recommit the Underwood Cot
ton bill to the Ways and Means com
mittee with instructions to formulate
its report upon the findings of the tariff
board in December.
Congressman Green of the Ninth
district and Congressman Prouty of the
Seventh district were the only Iowa
members who spoke on the bill Prouty
attacked the cloth schedule pointing
out that it raised the tariff on cheap
cotton cloth manufactured by the
southern mills and was sectional in its
makeup. Judge Green took up the
hosiery schedule especially that part Of
the report of the Democratic committee
which declared that the Payne bill dis
eliminated against the poor man and
that the tariff on the cheap grades of
hosiery had been greatly increased
thereby. The congressman from the
Ninth district showed complete familiar
ity with the schedule and commanded
the attention of the House when he
demonstrated by facts and figures that
the report of the committee on this item
was erroneous. In conclusion Judge
Green said While cotton has advanced
nearly 100 per cent, the skill of the
American workman and the ingenuity
of the manufacturer, developed under
the protective system, furnish today to
the American workman a cheaper and
a better hose than he ever purchased
before
to his feet in hot rebuttal, claiming that
very few of the cheaper grades of hose
were used in this country and that
there were few imported. Judge Green
pointed out that, while there were not
many pairs imported, that there were a
great many worn and that there were
an enormous amount made by American
mills which would be closed up by the bills
reported by the committee. In closing
his debate with Chairman Underwood
Judge Green was greeted with applause
from the Republican side of the House.
1t is understood that the President is
now preparing his veto messages for the
Wool and Free list bills and that they
will be returned to Congress very soon
after the bills are delivered to him.
This action on the Presidents part it is
thought will indicate so conclusively
that he will veto any and all tariff
revision bills presented to him before
the report of the tariff board in Decem-
Der, that the Democrats will close house
and Congress will adjourn. This is
looked for about August Is though some
of the more skeptical say it win be
September LIST or later. -
