CITY ELECTION
CAME MONDAY
Two Tickets In The Field Brought
Out Large Vote. Question OF
Paving an Issue

Last Monday was election day in
Audubon when a mayor, two council
men at large, one councilman for
each ward, assessor and treasurer
were to be elected. Audubon like
many other towns in the state failed
to file the regularly nominated tickets
with the town clerk fifteen days be-
fore election according to law, and
for that reason the voters were un-
able to vote printed ballot, but each
voter was compelled to write the
name of each candidate for whom he
wished to vote. BY so doing many
failed to put a cross in the square
opposite the name and according to
law such a ballot could not be count
ed. 1t was very confusing and made
voting very slow.
There were 400 votes cast in the
two wards of which H. J. Mantz re-
ceived 215 for mayor and e. M.
Johnson 1876. For councilmen at
large F. C. Miller received 211, w.
s. Roberts 14S, F. L. Taylor 141,
Chris Thompson So. For assessor, A.
L. Viewer received 1856. s. B. Morris

MILhoN DOLLAR CONCERN

Last week the First National Bank
of this city published its report of
the condition of the bank at the close
of business March 7th, which was
made in compliance with the laws
governing all banking institutions.
The footings run over the million
dollar mark, to be exact $1,06S,433.
IL. This is a wonderful showing,
though not quite as good as it would
have been earlier in the month. The
officers of the bank are we'll pleased
with the business that has been ac-
corded them and they are doing ev-
erything in their power to merit the
confidence the public has placed in
this sound banking institution.
The publishing of the statement
has ELECTED a great deal of comment
among the business men for they.
like the rest of the people of the
county, scarcely realized that right
here in our midst is an institution
that is doing a larger volume of bus
mess than is being done by many of
the banks in some of the larger cities.
The officers and directors are to be
congratulated on having coached the
million dollar mark with a good mar
gin to spare.

SPECIAL SERVICES
AT M. E. CHURCH
Former Pastors Are Among Those
Who Are Assisting Local Pastor
In Weeks Services

The members and friends of the
Methodist church are enjoying spec
ial services each evening this week.
On Monday evening Rev. A. A. Wal
burn was to have preached, but ii was
impossible for him to get here in
time for the services, so the evening
was spent in social way in the base
ment, which has just been remodeled
at considerable expense.
Tuesday evening Rev. Elias Handy
of Atlantic preached splendid SER
mon to a large congregation. Last
night Rev. d. B. S. Prather, of Ell
lott, former pastor here, filled the
appointment for Rev. J. H. Freedline
of Guthrie Center, who was unable to
fill his appointment. Rev. Prather
will also preach at the church to-
night.
Tomorrow evening comes the big
banquet and over two hundred per-
sons will be seated at the banquet
table. The speaker of the evening
will be Rev. E. NJ Evans of Des
Moines.
The occasion for the special SER
vices this week, is rejoicing over the
completion of necessary improve
ments in the basement of the church
The ladies aid society and the pastor,
Rev. Jackson Giddens, have had full
charge of the improvements, and they
are to be congratulated upon the sue
cess they have achieved. The pro-
ceeds of the banquet will be used to
defray the expense of the improve
ments.

CELEBRATE TENTH
WEDDING ANNIVERSARY

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. Ralph
Herbert one and half miles south OF

ding anniversary and the 61st birth
day of his mother, Mrs. j. X. Her
bert.

tinuation of both.

WE WILL VOTE
ON COMMITTEEMAN

The Iowa member of the repub-
| lican national committee has been
nominated heretofore by a caucus of
| delegates to the republican national
convention. This year the voters are
to have the privilege of naming the
national committeeman directly at the
presidential primary. They are to ex-
ercjse this responsibility under cir
cumstances which make the problem
almost as easy as voting for president
when the favorite son has no opposi-
| ton. Nominally there is a contest
for the Office of national committee
man this year, but actually there is
no excuse for contest and the event
probably will show general realiza-
Ition of this on the part of Iowa re-
publicans.
John T. Adams of Dubuque is a
candidate for reelection. He has
served one term as national commit
teeman, his period of service covering
the most critical time in the party
history since the early days of it's or
ganization. In his first term Mr..
Adams has gained recognition as
one of the strong men of the national
republican organization. When Mr..
Adams assumed the Office of commit
teeman the republican party of Iowa,
like Gaul, was divided into three
parts. There was more or less bit
terness in all the relations of these
divisions. Three years ago it did not
seem possible that 1916 could see as
close a reamalgamation of the party
as is now found to exist. The process
of rehabilitation has been materially
assisted by the general disposition 20
get together in support of an Iowa
man for the presidency. Committee
man Adams has contributed perhaps
more than any other one man to the
cultivation of the harmonious spirit
now prevailing Iowa republican ranks
Mr.. Adams ought to be elected
without opposition. There is no OPP
position of political Importance. John
Olson of Forest City, has exercised
his right to project an Independent
candidacy for the place. So far as
known, however, the leaders on both
sides of the old factional line are
heartily supporting the incumbent
and he ought to be reelected by a
bullying majority. He will be il the
voters take the trouble to post them
selves as to the facts.-Sioux City

new. LANDLORD
AT THE PARK
Building VIII be Remodeled and The
Hotel Put i'm First Glass Condi-
ton For Service

The Park Hotel, has been sold by
Geo. Kellogg, who bought it last
week, to Lial Ross, who not only
buys the fixtures, but the building
as well. He will take possession of
the property on Saturday morning
of this week Mr.. Kellogg felt that
the work would be more than he
could handle, so disposed of his in
terests at the earliest possible mo-
ment.
In an interview with Mr.. Ross we
learn that he contemplates many nee
essary improvements. He was some
what reluctant about giving us any
information as to his plans, but we
got enough out of the conversation
to state that the Park Hotel will be
thoroughly overhauled and converted
into hotel of the first rank.
1t will require a large outlay of
capital to put the hotel in proper con-
dition, but Mr.. Ross has confidence
enough in the future of Audubon to
take chance. He ought to receive
the hearty support of every business
man in town, and they will no doubt
boost for him from start to finish.
Mr.. Ross is pleasant and affable
young gentleman who believes in
progress and we wish him all kinds
of success in his new venture.

CELEBRATE BIRTHDAY

Last Sunday at the home of Jack

merriment and feasting was enjoyed.
1t was the 66th birthday anniversary
of Mr.. Savage, so his friends and
neighbors to the number of so con-
gregated at the home to take part in
the festivities. A most delicious din
ner was served and enjoyed by all.

taken all in all, proved to be swell
affair. Before departing for their re-
spective homes, the guests to show
their kindly feeling and the respect
in which they hold Mr.. s. made up
a collection and presented the hon
ored host with substantial sum of
money. The Republican joins Mr..
Savago's friends in wishing him
many more such happy birthdays.

ARE STILL AFTER VILLA

Somewhere amid the grim and for
hidden extinct volcanoes of the great
continental divide Pancho Villa is
fleeing southwark today. Hard on
his trail the cavalry of the United
States army are straining every nerve
to catch up with him before he can
reach the wastes, almost unknown
to any but Mexicans and Indians, in
which he began his career as bandit
years ago.
In the absence of any official news
of the chase, the border at Ell Paso
has settled down to speculation, bas-
ed on such slim facts as are brought
back to the United States by Amer
lean mining men and ranchers who
straggle in by ones and twos.
The little optimism that is express
ed regarding speedy termination of
the task before General Pershing's
columns, is based on the fact that
Villa is contending for the first time
against American soldiers equipped
with every device that science has
contributed to modern warfare.

ACCEPTS NEW POSITION

March Jones who was deputy treas
urer for NJ e. Mortinsen during his
first term of office, and who has been
engaged in other occupations since
his return from California where he
visited his mother, will enter the en-
ploy of Arnold, Ross & Rasmussen
beginning the first of April. Mr..
Jones will probably spend most of
his time in the insurance department.
He is well qualified to fill the posi-
ton and we are pleased to learn that
he has decided to remain in Audubon
and to associate himself with such a
responsible firm as Arnold, Ross &
Rasmussen.

C. H. REYNOLDS FOR SHERIFF

C. H. Reynolds, the present deputy
sheriff announces himself in the Re-
publican this week as a candidate
for the Office of sheriff on the DEM
ocratic ticket, subject to the wishes
of the democratic voters at the pri-
airy to be held in June.
Mr.. Reynolds has filled his present
position capably and very acceptab-
ly, and in political parlance, is in line
for the office. He has been resident
of Audubon over eight years and dur
ing that time has made a wide ac-
quaintance. Before coming here he
lived in Guthrie Center where every
man, woman and child swears by him.
If Audubon county is to have dem
ocratic sheriff we can see no reason
why Mr.. Reynolds wouldn't be ac-
ceptable to the people of this county.

FOOT BADLY INJURED

Mrs. M. |. Masterson injured her
left foot quite badly this morning
and physician who was called to
administer relief found that two
small bones had been broken. She
permitted table to fall on the foot
which caused the injury. She is
resting as comfortable as could be
expected at this time, but it will be
several weeks before she will have
the use of her foot. 1t is to be hoped
that the injury will not leave any bad
effects which would cause trouble in
the future.

pronounced in favor of the public inn
