THE STATE WIDE PRIMARY

We take the following clipping
from the Pennington Republican. a
newspaper published in Van Buren,
county, the home of Father Rowley,
who was overwhelmingly defeated
for Governor:
THE result of the Primary Elec-
ton last week was considerable of a
surprise especially to the people of
Van Buren, county. Many of our citi-
zens believed that Mr.. Rowley stood
a good show to be nominated on his
own anti-capitol grounds platform,
but it came out as We predicted 1t
would. The state of Iowa is too
big and too really progressive to
stumble over a little u mill levy for
making a much needed Improvement
at the state capitol.
The endorsement given Gov.
Clarke by the republicans of the
state at the primary last week
should settle this matter so far as
the party is concerned, and all fac
lions should unite to elect the en-
tire republican state ticket this fall.
Gov. Clarke received a larger vote
at the primary this year than he did
two years ago Notwithstanding
the bitter fight made against him.
this year His vote proves without
doubt that Gov. Clarke is popular
with the republicans throughout the
state and will be stronger in the
election this fall than ever before.
His magnificent run in the primary
has inspired confidence in the repub-
lican political circles and strength
ened the belief that the entire repub-
lican state ticket can be elected next
November"

SPECIAL MEETING OF COUNCIL
City Council Met at Council Cham
Der Monday Evening to Take
up Sewerage Question.

The city council met in special
session at the council chamber Mon
day eveningto lay out definite plans
and to investigate further into the
matter of sewerage for the town of
Audubon.
After thorough discussion, the
council decided to employ a civil en-
gineer to make plans and speciflca-
tions and survey the town. When
the estimate of the cost of installing
the system has been determined, the
matter will be submitted to the
voters at aNspecial election for their
approval or rejection. We believe
the council has acted wisely. IL a
majority of the people of Audubon
favor the much needed improvement
we believe it ought to be made, but
If they are not ready for it at this
time, those of us who feel the need
of the Improvement will simply have
to wait. However, we have great
confidence in the people of Audubon
and have every reason to believe
that when the matter is submitted to
a vote that the project will carry by
a large majority.
The council ordered the refund of
a number of water works bonds.
Another meeting will be held in the
near future to make the necessary
arrangements for the special cleo
ton

met defeat second time in a closely
contested game. 1t took ten inings

in Brayton's victory at toll. Aud
ubon made 5 hits and errors
while Brayton made : hits and z
errors. Kilcoin and McManagal

clever on the diamond and put up
a good stiff game from beginning
to end.
Guthrie Characterization Game
Sunday afternoon the team from
Guthrie Center came to give the Au-
dubonites a workout. This time
they were successful in winning by
8 to 3. Audubon made 13 hits,
errors and strikeouts while the
visitors had hits, S errors and 8
strikeouts. In the first half of the
third inning 1t looked as though
Guthrie Center was going to take
lead in the score when by errors
on Audubon's part the first two bat
ters up reached End and 3rd, with no
outs. 1t was then that Booton
showed his skill and level headed
ness by striking out the succeeding
three batters in one, two, three or
der. This broughtS Audubon out
of bad hole and filled the fans to
overlooking with enthusiasm. Guth-
rie Center retired without a score in
this inning.

hustling progressive set. 1t was
some few years ago that this lodge

mitted them to pay off the mort

WHEN THEY WERE BOYS.

The following is from the pen of
A. e. Armstrong. a former Audi
bon county resident. He writes
much interesting news in the Guth-
rie Center Times under the caption
Southwest" Mr.. Armstrong has an
entertaining way of saying things
and his writings are eagerly read
While in Panora we went on q
search for our friend and old time
neighbor, DR.. Colee. The genial
doctor and Southwest were pion-
GERS of Audubon county. There
was no town of Audubon. Those
prairies were then mostly inhabit-
ed by the prowling cyote and vici-
ious rattlers. When we old neigh
bors get together we like to talk of
old times. They say it's a sure
sign of coming old age when one
goes with his trousers unbuttoned
and inquiries about old time
friends. Now, while our toilet is
complete, we do have a liking for
old-time friends and acquaintan-
-ees."
