AK MURDER CASE
IS A live TOPIC
Though Being Tried i'm Red Oak
People Here Are Greatly Inter-
ested In Progress of the Trial

Through four witnesses who were
on the stand Wednesday in the trial
of Rev. Lyn j. Kelly at Red Oak, for
his connection with the Villisca ak
murders the jury was told that the
accused man was of unsound mind
when they talked with him regard
ing the murder. Horace Houghton
of Sioux City, ]. ]. Ferguson of Coun-
Gil Bluffs, w. c. Ratcliff of Red Oak
and o. E. Jackson, formerly of Red
Oak, but now of Norwich, were the
four persons who tetified that they
considered Kelly not mentally re-
sponsible.
The most interesting feature of
Wednesdays proceedings was the
story of what transpired during the
long hours of the night of August
80, when Kelly related the weird
story of how he murdered the Moore
family and two little Stillinger girls
and 1t was revealed through the read
ing Of the transcript of the short
hand notes of j. ]. Ferguson. Coun-
Gil Bluffs court reporter. Mr.. Fer
guson was present in the sheriff's Of
flee at Logan when Kelly was ques-
toned for several hours by Attorney
General Harvner and J. j. Hess, one
OF the attorneys for the state, and
was called by the defense to read to
the jury the story of what took place
at that time. Mr.. Mitchell, of Kelly's
counsel, promised in his opening
statement that the jury would see
the inside" Of that transaction.
The confession of Kelly which was
made public several weeks ago, and
which was read before the jury fol-
lows in full.

THE SATURDAY CONVENTION

AS was seen by our issue of last
week, the call for the county conven-
ton of the temperance forces has
been made asking that all who ia
vor the amendment, upon which we
vote October 23. be present. The
meeting will be called at = O'Clock.
Mr.. G. E. Ferguson, OF Des Moines,
has been assigned the work of organ
izing Audubon county, is now in the
county, already attending to his du-
ties as organizer. He hopes to
meet may who are interested, but
in case he should not be able to get
to interview you, don't let that keep
you from the convention. The time
is short. Only four weeks from last
Monday, the people of the state will
decide whether they want the saloons
done away with forever, or whether
we will simply let the matter pass
in an indifferent way. OF course
very few want the return of the sa-
loon. But if we tail to record our
vote against it in the coming cleo
ton, It might be reasonable be taken
for granted that we would as soon
have the saloon. Many people are
is too important matter to let 60
be default. There are perhaps
third of the voters of the state who
will go to the polls and vote against
the election. We cannot get but a
full vote; that is sure. And the fell
low who stays at home is the fellow
who will be responsible for the de-
feat There is only one way to
4. g. hot se, 60 n
go to the polls and register your vote
for the amendment. Mr.. Ferguson
will tell you of the Importance Sat
urday afternoon. We want to make
this the last liquor fight in Iowa.
1t is an undesirable matter of con-
tention. Let us settle it once for
all and for the right. Come to the
convention. and let US get started
right. Better spend little time
now than to have to make this fight
all over again.

HOME FROM CANADA

Hans Hansen. the happy cOngenial
real estate dealer who is taking hun
dreds of Audubon county farmers to
the new Danish colony that is being
established near Standard Alberta,
Canada. returned Friday from his re-
cent excursion to that section. In
the last two excursions II persons
from this vicinity constituted the
party.
The weather was ideal and every
one had a most enjoyable time. In
fact the Canadian Pacific Ky. Co.,
chartered a street car at Calgary and
gave the party trip over the city:
This was only one of the delightful
instances Of the trip.
In the party were men who were
looking for place to make their
homes as well as others who sought
investments. Mr.. Hansen told us
Saturday that 5000 acres of land
were sold and that another 1000
acres was under consideration.
The new colony embraces ter
ritory covering an area of so miles in
width by 60 miles in length. CT
course 1t is not as thickly settled as
the Danish colony in Audubon and
Shelby counties. but it will be with
in a few years. Many former Audi
bon county farmers are harvesting
this year Is to 40 bushels of wheat,
25 to 80 Of oats and to Is of flax.
This is considered remarkable from
the fact that the season this .yeaI
has not been as favorable as 1t has
been in the past.
When 1t is known that land sell
ing from s13 to SIG an acre is pro-
ducing such crops. it is no wonder
that our farmers are enthusiastic
about making investments in Canads
land.
MIR. Hansen said a number of those
who went on the last excursion had
no intention of buying. but were sc
taken with the country and Its pros
perity that they concluded to have
a share In 1t by buying some OF the
land.

RETURNS FROM HIS
HUNTING EXPEDITION

D w. Wood who with his fancy
hunting dog has enjoyed a two weeks
hunt in the northern part of South
Dakota. returned home Sunday. For
twenty-five years past Mr.. Wood and
his intimate friend, Lyman T. Powell,
of Superior, Wis, have made annual
trips to this same spot II u a time
when both gentlemen lay aside bust
Ecss cares and go out for little
Snort Both IF them have fancy
hunting dogs and these ANIMALS ap-
parently enjoy the outins as much as
their masters. Hunting anu trout
fishing were as good this year as
ever, but the stringent laws of the
DakOtas and Minnesota make it al
most impossible for hunters to bag
a great surplus of game.
On his return home Mr.. Wood
stopped in st. Paul and by accident
he met Chas. White in a restaurant.
Mr.. White is in the officers train
ing camp at FIT. Smelling, Mimi, and
was greatly pleased to see Mr. Wood
Our old friend Charles is looking
we'll and is standing up under the in
tensive training. Just now all of
the men are going through a series
sible for great deal of the misery
most of the boys are encountering.
AS soon as they have passed through
this stage successfully they may be
relied upon to regain their usual
good health and the added strength
and vitality brought On by proper ex-
ercise and training. Mr.. White sent
his best regards to all Audubon peo-
pie, and in turn we can speak for
them in sending their best regards
and well wishes to him.

TO BOOST FOR A
GREATER IOWA HERR

The Greater Iowa Association has
set the week of October to 6 for
the meetings to be held in each coun-
ty of the state and prominent speak
ers have been assigned. The meet
ing in Audubon is to be held al one
O'clock on the Afternoon OF Tuesday,
October End. The speakers will be
II. E. Slack, of Carlisle; Philo Clark.
of Red Oak; and r. B. Wallace, of
Council Bluffs. The object of these
meetings is to boost Iowa and Iowa
made goods.
We have all heard the story of
1owa's progress in agriculture, in
manufacturing, in road building and
in education, but a Greater Iowa, in
the big broad sense of the term. does
not mean merely an increased pro-
duction from our soil or more and
buster factories; it does not mean
merely good roads and more and bet
ter schools; a truly Greater Iowa
means a homogeneous combination
of all of these things.
To achieve q Greater Iowa we
must first acquaint ourselves with
Iowa as it is today,-with it's his
tory and its opportunities. We must
IOWA. and with this know
ledge will come a more intense state
pride and deeper interest in what
Iowa is doing and can do.
To achieve Greater Iowa we
must do away with that age-old pre-
judice between urban and rural dis
tricts. The population of Iowa is
divided between those who
live on the farms and those who live
in the cities and towns. These two
great classes of our citizenship must
develop a mutual confidence and CO.
operation or our hopes for a Greater
Iowa never will be fully realized.

new RULING ON
DRAFT EXEMPTION
Only In Case of Error or Misapplic-
ton OF The Law May he APP
pealed to Governor

Men summoned for service under
the draft and who have been denied
discharge by local district boards be-
cause of dependents have still
means of appeal where they can
show there has been error or mis-
application of the law in their cases.
On such showing governors of states,
to whom appeal may BIO taken, are
authorized to request local boards
to reopen cases.
There is no appeal to the president
however. except where exemption has
been sought on the ground of indus
trial employment and denied by the
district board. The rulings COM
municated last night to state officials
make this clear in the following
The only cases in which there is
a right of appeal to the president
are cases of claims for exemption or
discharge based upon engagement in
industry or agriculture. Further
than this it is impossible to 60.
II any of the millions of individual
cases within the original Jurisdiction
of local boards are 60 be considered
in Washington, then all ought to be
open to consideration. This is i'm
possible. Therefore, administrative
authority will not address itself to
particular cases in the Jurisdiction
of local boards.
1.-THE president has directed the
war department to decline to discuss
cases pending before local or district
boards or entertain any communi-
cations. suggestions or statements
concerning them"

STORE TO OPEN SOON

A large force of workmen have
been employed during the past two
weeks in the double store room on
Lower Broadway which is soon to
be occupied by Henricksen Bros.
Department Store. The building is
especially adapted for the mercan-
tile business and many important
changes have been made. The room
has been thoroly fumigated. new pa
per on the walls, all the wood work
reprinted and the steel ceiling given
special decoration. A new system
of lighting has been installed which
will turn nighttime into daytime.
The new stock of goods has been
shipped to Audubon and these young
business men hope to open their
store to the public some time next
week II possible. The definite time
of their opening will appear in their
advertising elsewhere In this paper
The three boys are sons of Chris.
Henrickensen, who has for years
been associated with the business in
terests of the town. They have had
splendid training under the tutor
ship OF their father and elsewhere.
They are courteous and obliging and
will without question secure their
share of the public's patronage.

IMPORTANT BUSINESS CHANGE

A great surprise was sprung Mon
day morning when 1t became known
that Evans Marquesen, known as the
merchant prince of Audubon. had
disposed of his large department
store to James Gray. gentleman
who Is travelling salesman, but
who has an interest In a chain of
stores throughout the country. Mr..
Gray has sold goods in Audubon so
long that he Is to all intents and
purposes an Audubon business man.
He has associated with him other
men of unlimited capital who have
come to this city to become a part
of the town. The firm will perhaps
be incorporated, and known as The
Alderman Co., with H. j. Halvorsen,
of DEBORAH, Iowa, as the resident
member of the firm.
Monday morning the doors were
closed for invoicing and Mr.. Halvor-
sen arrived on the early train to
assist the regular force. This has
continued all week and it is the in
tention of the new firm to be ready
for business by Saturday morning.
The new firm comes to us with
the best of recommendations and
tuC hdhdSOi II. iidiNoloCh hCi
aided as one of the most capable dry
goods men in the state. He is
thoroly familiar with big business
projects and will give Audubon a
real live mercantile establishment.
He is a man with a family and as
soon as he can rent a residence prop
erty his family will come to make
Audubon their permanent home.
1t is with much regret that the
people of the vicinity learn of Mr..
Marquesen's determination to with
draw from the mercantile field. He
has been a live wire for. the town
and has conducted the business
along lines that has made the store
household word in every home.
He has not made any statements as
to his future intentions, but We learn
that he will continue to reside in
Audubon and may later engage in
other business pursuits. The well
wishes of a host of friends will fol-
low Mr.. Marquesen wherever he
goes.
The people of the city and COM
munity will extend most hearty
welcome to Mr.. Halvorsen and his
family and will do their utmost to
make their stay in the city both prof
liable and pleasant. F

GONE TO NJ. f. CONFERENCE

Rev. Jackson Giddens. pastor Of
the Methodist church, left for Indian
ola Tuesday morning where he will
attend the Des Moines District con-
ference OF the church. The con-
ference will remain in session over
next Sunday. The official board Of
the church here voted unanimously
for his return and IL present plans
do not miscarry, Rev. Giddens will
come back. There are, however, a
number of vacancies in the larger
cities of the conference and it may
be that unlocked for changes will
be made, and in that case no one
can forsee the ultimate result of the
appointment in Audubon. and all
Audubon charge is at the head Of
the list in the Atlantic district, and
the district superintendent will send
pastor to us who will be able to
handle the work.
II change should be made,
there would be a great deal Of dis
appointment in Audubon, and all
trust that it will not be necessary to
do otherwise than to accede to the
wishes of the official board.

service and who have been notified
to report in Audubon Thursday to
be taken to Camp Dodge tomorrow

FAIR OFFICERS ARE
ELECTED FOR THE YEAR

The annual election of officers OF
the Audubon County Agricultural
Society was held at the fair grounds
on Thursday afternoon of last week
The officers elected were F. L. And
erson, president, F. C. Miller, vice
president; F. C. Sampson, treasurer
and G. l.. Carter, secretary. All of
the old officers were reelected but
the secretary, John Honing, who re-
fused to consider the place, he hav-
ing served most efficiently two years
in succession.
Much credit is due Mr.. Horning
for the painstaking manner in which
he conducted the affairs of the Of
flee. For weeks he worked indust-
riously to make this years exhibit
ton a marked success and everyone
who attended the fair last week
knows how we'll he succeeded in
carrying out his plans. The other
officers and the directors gave him
splendid support and with a unity
Of purpose the 1917 fair will go
down in history as among the best
this year will exceed that of any pre-
Niouo sCdis
Everyone interested in this great
institution will continue to give the
officers the support they deserve.
The new secretary, Mr.. Carter is a
young business man of the city who
has made a success in his own bust
ness endeavors and it is reasonable
to suppose that he will carry on the
good work already started. We be-
speak successful fair under the
of Mr.. Carter and we
know of no one who could fill the
place so creditably as he can.
The township directors elected
were as follows: Audubon-John
Tibben; Cameron-Carl Ross; Doug
Mendenhall; Exira-A. w.
Harvey; Greeley-Fred Reynolds;
Slayton; Leroy-G.
A. Foley; Lincoln-Ol Mease; Mel

ASKS SAFE CONDUCT
FOR GERMAN MINISTER

In private sources it was learned
by the Associatiated Press today that
the Argentine government has ask
ed Spain to take the responsibility
of obtaining from the American and
British governments a safe conduct
for Count Won Luxburg. the German
minister who recently was given his
passports, arguing that the count is
to leave Argentine for Spain on a
Spanish vessel. Accordingly, 1t was
said, the Spanish ambassador has
asked the Madrid government to mi
tiate negotiations to this end.
The course taken by the Argentine
foreign office is not in accordance
with diplomatic usuage, but the gov
eminent, it is understood, wishes to
escape the necessity of extending
to the expelled German minister
the usual courtesies.
