FOR CHILD
WELFARE CONFERENCE

The selection of delegates to repre-
sent the Audubon Womans Club at
the Child Welfare conference at Iowa
City, October. 25, 26, and 27th. was
left to the wisdom of the president
who has been finding it very hard
task TO make a choice among so many
efficient workers.
After considerable thought she de-
cided that it would be most pleasing
to the club if she would just appoint
the officers in rotation; and this she
has done, naming Mrs. Harry Nor
thup. vice-president and Mrs. John
Wagner, recording-secretary the two
delegates and Mrs. John Graham, cor
responding secretary and Mrs Pat,
rick Mcmahon, treasurer as the al
ternates. If none of these find it pos
sible to attend the conference, the
next names in the list will be used,
Mrs. H. G.. Rice, cairman of the
Board of Directors and Mrs. Chas.
Sunberg, the newly appointed assist
ant secretary.

COMPLETE FIFTY-YEARS
OF HAPPY COMPREHENSIVE

Yesterday, Mr.. and Mrs. w. B.
Davis of this city had the honor of
completing fifty years of welded life
together. Few of their friends were
aware of this fact, they preferring to
observe the day together alone in each
others company We doubt IL there
are any other two people in Audubon
who are in higher esteem than Mr..
and Mrs Davis. They have been re-
sidents of Audubon and Audubon
county a number of years, being
among the pioneer residents. Fifty
years is long time to look back,
but Mr.. and Mrs. Davis recall the days
of their early welded life and hard
ships with pleasure. Their Journey
through life has been a happy one and
they have lived an exemplary life,
winning for them the admiration and
esteem of all who know them. 1t is
the wish of their friends that they
may live to enjoy many more years
of happy wedlock.

HEREFORD SALE is
A DECIDED SUCCESS

The Hereford cattle sale of Will
Jams & Lille, of near Extra, was held
at the pavilion at the fair grounds
on Monday afternoon. A large crowd
gathered for the sale. The sale was
the choicest offering of their herd
and contained 25 bulls and 35 cows
and heifers. One bull brought
$4,000 and a number of other indi-
viduals brought high prices. The
average for the sale was in the neigh
borhood of 1871. We were unable
to secure list of the purchasers and
the prices paid, but we venture to
say that the sale fully measured UP
to the expectations of Mr.. Williams
and Mr.. Lille. They have already es-
tablished a reputation for raising
splendid Hereford Cattle and the sale
of Monday was convincing evidence
that both gentlemen were deserving
of the merits with which they have
been credited

HUGHES MAKING
GOOD IMPRESSION
Republican Candidate For President
Meets Enthusiastic Reception at
Omaha and Sioux City

Charles II. hughes closed his cam
paign in Nebraska Monday with ad-
dress to four audiences of farmers at
Hastings, Grand Island, Columbus
and Fremont, and meeting in the
auditorium in Omaha at night. The
station, the nearby viaduet and the
streets in the vicinity were crowded
when the Hughes special reached
Omaha. The nominees way to the
hotel for much of the distance was
between lines of parked automobiles,
whose occupants cheered and sounded
their sirens in welcome that drown
ed out the music of the brass band in
lead. Crowds lined the sidewalks
the entire distance from the station
to the hotel and many of those who
welcomed him at the station fell into
line with the automobile parade and
accompanied him.
At the auditorium it was stated by
many who had attended both Monday
nights meeting and the one at which
President Wilson spoke recently, that
| the Hughes crowd was the larger of
/ the two. Every seat was occupied,
the standing room was all occupied
and the crowd overflowed into the
lobby and into the street. 1t was es-
timated that nearly 1000 people
heard the presidential candidate.
Meeting At Sioux City
Mr. Hughes special train reached
Sioux City shortly after D. m. Tues

with foresighted people, anxious to

Seventh street hundreds clamored for

when the guards at the doors insisted
that no more could enter, and that
! Mr.. Hughes and Mr.. Harding would
be heard at an overflow meeting at
the courthouse. These hundreds
gathered at the courthouse but the
promised addresses were not made,
because the Hughes special was In
waiting and its departure time had
been fixed for IL p. m. Mr.. Hughes
and his escort went straight to the
train from the Auditorium.
Mr.. Hughes was introduced by
Lieut.. Gov. Harding. Mr.. Harding's
introduction was short, put II brought
the crowd to its feet with yell of

FIXING THE BLAME

Former State Senator Shively, of
Indiana, at South Sioux City apollo
gized for the presidents recognition
of Carranza by explaining in effect
that the president was forced to recog-
niZe the present de facto head of the
Mexican government because the
ISouth American members of the sec
Iond conference on Mexico. insisted
upon such recognition, and, being out
numbered and outmaneuvered, the
president was forced to yield and ex-
tend the recognition of the United
States government to the shifty and
unreliable CarranZa. Possibly the ex-
PLANTATION is correct. Possibly Wilson
did recognize Carranza under duress,
as he forced congress to pass the
Adamson increased wage bill under
pressure from the brotherhoods. If
true the explanation is not to the
credit of the president of the United
States and is not calculated to cause
the American people to glow with
pride over the achievements of the
present occupant of the White House.
On the whole the administration would
have been much better off IL II had
not sent Mr.. Shively, of Indiana, forth
to make that sort of explanation of
one of the queerest acts of the Wilson
administration.
The effort of the Hoosier to place
the blame upon Theodore Roosevelt
for the South American delegates
action in forcing Wilson to recognize
Carranza, too, is interesting, but is
scarcely convincing. Mr.. Shively claim
that Roosevelt had caused the South
American countries to dislike the
United States so intensely that when
Wilson summoned them to a confer
ence upon the Mexican question they
grasped with eagerness the opportun-
ity to put Wilson, In hole by forcing
him to recognize Carranza. Surprising
this statement to be true, does II re-
fleet much credit upon the president?
If he did not know what he was get
ting into when he invited the South
American delegates to the conference
who was to blame-the president,
who brought about the conference
sentiment of South America was to-
ward the United States. or some pre-
decessor on the job? If the Indianan
wanted to be quite logical he,should
have gone back much farther than
Theodore Roosevelt and placed the
blame for the whole Mexican middle
upon the democratic Polk administra-
ton. If Polk had been "too proud to
fight" Mexico still might retain a big
slice of territory now owned by the
United States and Mexico and South
America might feel much more
friendly toward the United States
than they do.
