spring chicken in the business He is
"a plumb good onel" as the boys say.
and he will give the people the worth
of their money. We hope to see him
repeat at Audubon the successes he
realized in Fl. Madison, Richland and
Colfax.-Colfax Clipper.
We have received the first number of
the Audubon Republican under the
management of its new publisher, II. j..
Hoogenakker 1t is seven column
quarto and Judging from the amount of
news it contains, its advertising patron
age and the general make up of the
paper, it looks as if it were published in
at least an eight column town. Audu-
bon is the county seat OF Audubon coun-
ty, town of about 1000 population,
and as can be seen by the advertising
accorded the Republican, is wide-a-
wake city. -Donnellson Review.
A. G. Ross, editor and publisher of
the Audubon Republican for the past
six years, has disposed of that paper to
III. ]. Hoogenakker. Mr.. Ross was one
of the ablest editors in this part of Iowa
and made the Republican one of the
best newspaper properties in the state.
Mr.. Hoogenakker is young man with
lots of push and energy and we predict
that he will still keep the Republican
in the front ranks of Iowa newspapers.

We received this week the Audubon
Republican and perused its columns a
little more thoroughly than usual on &C
count of it being the first issue under
the management of H. ]. Hoogenakker
Mr.. Hoogenakker while here only about
two years had won place with the peo.
pie of Guthrie Center and we predict
that he will do likewise with the people
of Audubon. What's Guthrie Center's
loss is Audubon's gain. This is an old
saying but quite true in Mr.. Hoogenak
ker's case. Guthrie Center Times.
We are in receipt of the Audubon Re
publican, published at Audubon, Iowa
and III. ]. Hoogenakder is its editor ant
publisher We were surprised to learr
that Henry had again INDUCED in hi,
fancies, but we always knew he coult
not give up his first love. However WI
can safely say that he will give the
good people of Audubon and vicinity {
live newspaper and if they know agooi
| thing when they see it they will keer
him at the helm. Success Henry. Pei

H. J. Hoogenakker, formerly of the
Clarion at Richland, is now owner and
editor of the Audubon Republican. II
is good newspaper property, in a live
town and county and we predict that
Mr.. Hoogenakker will give them Q
paper that they will be proud of, fol
that is the kind of a newspaper boy he
is. Success to you Hoegie. -Keokuh

A letter from one of the prominent
attorneys of Audubon, says of our friend

We hope our readers will pardon us
for personal mention, but we have 9
long list of personal friends who have
written us recently regarding our news
paper work and extending to us Their
hearty well wishes. Among the mum
Der is a letter from dear. friend who
was our pastor for three years. He is 6
man who means what he says, and fol-
that, If for no other reason, we prize
his letter very highly. He says in part
My Dear III. j. Hoogenakker: II an
not surprised to know you are back in
the newspaper business. 1t is your
throne and place of power. / hope fol

Richland, Iowa, when editor of the
Clarion, and your success was grand
there. When you left no man was, OF
could be, more missed. All the citizens
and especially all the business men re

to welcome your return. The people OF
the churches expressed their sorrow
when they learned of your departure

soon have the hearts and friendships OF
the people of Audubon"
