AUDUBON WILL CELEBRATE

Audubon will celebrate the glor-
ious 4th this year. The celebration
was decided upon to comply with
the wishes of the president, who has
asked the people of the nation to
hold patriotic programs wherever it
was possible.
The matter was taken up with the
local military board, and the board
placed George Carter at the head of
affairs to represent them and appoint
ed Evans Marquesen to act with him
to complete the necessary arrange
ments. Up to the hour of going to
press this morning we were unable
to learn the names of the speakers,
but we have the assurance that
prominent speakers will be secured.
The celebration will not be of the
kind held in years past. The pro-
gram will be practically confined to
patriotic program in the morning,
afternoon and evening. The bands
of the county will assist in furnish
ing the music.
The people are requested to bring
their dinners and all unite in picnic
dinner in our beautiful shady park.
Bills will be printed la;ar, which will
give all the desired information.
1t is hoped that people from all
parts of the county will join in this
celebration this year. Let thousands
be present to hear the speakers. all
of whom will have a message dear 10
the hearts of every true, loyal Amer
lean citizen.

AUDUBON COUNTY BOYS
SENT TO ANOTHER CAMP

E. M. Cole received a letter from
his son, Charles Cole. who has been
located at Camp Cody, neming, y. NJ.
stating that they had been moved
from that place to Camp Merritt, n.
j., where they are probably await
ing ships to be transported to
France. With Charles are Otto Clark,
George Dawson and Howard III
rich.
Enroute the soldier boys made a
number of stops, among them Hor-
nell, II. Y. All along the way the
boys were shown every possible cour-
tesy. but at Hornell they were ac-
corded special attention. Everything
the boys wanted was free or was paid
for by civilians. An ice cream man
ufacturer gave all the soldier boys
who called at his place of business
a quart of ice cream gratis. These
special favors made the boys feel
good and as long as they live Hor-
nell y. Y, will have a warm spot
in their hearts. 1t was striking
contrast with the hold-up methods
at Deming, where people seem to
have the notion that soldier boys are
to pay high prices for everything
they buy There appears to be some
hold-up scheme in operation that is
working quite successfully.
We are pleased to state that all
of the Audubon boys are in the best
of health and eager to go across and
fight in the trenches OF Wherever
they could be of service.

NO MORE WRESTLING
UNTIL AFTER THE WAR

Wrestling in the heavyweight class
where the championship is at stake,
is due for a long rest ana it is doubt
full as TO whether Earl Caddock will
meet any more of the contenders un-
til after the war.
Having wrestled all the leading
contenders for his title and defeated
them. The champion now intends
to spend his time working for Uncle
Sam.
The champion however. has sew
eral minor bouts arranged bit they
are only to keep the home fires
burning" and he will meet no SER
ious opposition in them.
Four matches promoted by Oscar
Thorson in Des Molnes have proved
successful.
While the receipts of the last match
did not run nearly as high as the
Zbyszko -Caddock bout. great
throng witnessed the battle and a
drop in the gate receipts was expect
ed on account of conditions.
Hussane. Zbyszko. Olln and Lewis
have all fallen before Caddock in
Des Moines. Wrestling fans are more
than pleased and while a champion
ship bout every now and then would
no doubt draw a crowd. close fol-
lowers of the game say it is no time
for big matches.
Caddock is matched to meet Hus-
sane at Casper. Wyo., on July las
the headliner of big athletic enter
tainment to be staged there that day
While Hussane is a tough wrestler
the champion should have no trouble
in disposing of him. This bout viii
probably be one of the champion S
last as his division is expected to be
on its way to the front before many
weeks.

Iowa must contribute 1882 Of
its young men TO the army before the
first OF August. A draft call received
from the provost marshal general at
washington by Adjutant General
Logan today. directs the drafting OF
the number in the five day period
beginning July %.
The men who go at this time will
not have the advantage enjoyed by
large proportion OF the lOwans in
former drafts. OF getting their train
ing close at home.
Every man of them will so TO far
away camps. The provost marshals
order reveals that 5,292 will be sent
TO Camp Gordon. Atlanta, Ga, and
1857 to Camp Pike, Little Rock,
Ark
1t was estimated by officials in the
adjutant generals office when the
call was received. that it will almost
completely exhaust Glass One in the
state.
Thousands of new brides will suf-
fer double sorrow. Their husbands,
just put into Glass One under orders
from Washington, must not only put
on an olive drab in 4 little less than
a month but will be taken to train
ing camp hundreds OF miles from
Iowa 1t was estimated recently that
about 24000 men are in Glass One in
Iowa Since then the class has been
both increased and reduced. A call
for 5000 who will report at Camp
Dodge June "a. and numerous small
err special calls have taken new bride
grooms and some by general reclass-
flying in districts where the proper
ton of class one men is Unfortunately
low.

GOVERNOR TOLD PREACHERS
THEY MUST OBEY HIS ORDEI

Foreign language churches are
universally dropping the use of for
eign languages in the conduct of
church services, according to reports
to Governor Harding from county
Councils of defense. The custom Of
preaching in English and giving op-
portunity for those who wish to re-
main TO hear the same sermon in
their native tongue is being followed
ont by many of the ministers. 1t is
reported that it is not necessary in
many of the churches to repeat the
sermon in the foreign tongue.
The defense council workers re-
port they are having trouble shut
ting off talking over the telephones
in foreign tongues. For the most
part. however. Governor Harding's
language proclamation is being gem
orally obeyed.
A delegation headed by Lars Boo,
former legislator from Winnishiek
county, conferred with the Governor
Wednesday about service in the Nor
wegian churches. These churches are
observing the proclamation to the
letter, they report.
From Sioux county comes the re-
port that the Hollanders in that
county are observing the Proclama-
tion in their church services.

ATLANTIC MAN Is LOYAL

After an all day session in which
the testimony of fifty witnesses was
heard the military affairs COMMITTEES
of the Cass county council of defense
has rendered a decision completely
generating Emil Rothschild. veal
thy Atlantic grain man. of charges OF
disloyalty and criminality. Not par
ticle of dependable evidence was pro-
duced to sustain the charges, says
the committees decision.
Mr.. Rothschild, who is a native of
Germany. is head of the Rothschild
Grain Co. in Atlantic. His concern
has numerous elevators throughout
southwestern Iowa and does an inn
mense grain business. Mr. Roths-
child himself holds memberships on
the Omaha grain exchange and Chi
cago board of trade.
Although a native of Germany,
with his parents living in that coun-
try and with four brothers in the
German army, Emil Rothschild has
repeatedly stated that he would
rather see them killed than to see
the allies lose. He has made num-
erous patriotic speeches and has
been a most liberal giver to the Red
Cross and army war fund of the Y.
NJ. c. A. His company owns $SS,000
in Liberty bonds.
For several months wild rumors
were peddled around Atlantic and a
few neighboring towns, regarding
Mr.. Rothschilds loyalty. Recently
he was challenged to produce his
naturalization papers.
He was accused of being a spy and
paid agent of the kaiser. Finally
an affidavit was secured from a dis
charged employee of the Rothschild
Grain Co purporting to disclose an
,attempi by Rothschild to have the
plant burned.

ANOTHER MEXICAN REVOLUTION

There is story current among
the stock brokers in Wall street, the
information upon which it is found
ed said to come from men interested
in oil and mining, that there will
soon be a new revolution started in
Mexico that promises to overthrow
the CarranZa government. 1t is said
that young Diaz, who has been liv-
ing with his family at New Orleans,
is again in Mexico, after a perilous
voyage in which the schooner in
which he sailed was wrecked. that
he got unnoticed to the city of Mex
leo, met the leaders of his adherents
there, sent out the word to his fol-
lowers to meet him at certain point
and that large number of men an
swered the call and that at the head
OF this force he is in close connection
with Zapata who has 5000 men un-
der his command and that very soon
they expect to capture the capital
and set up new government,
The story goes that the formation
of eight regiments of Texas rangers
to take the place of the United States
troops on the frontier, has been brot
about by the fear of this new revo-
luton. These are state troops. to be
armed, equipped and paid by the
state. That there is no more prom
Use of law and order and safety for
the life and property in Mexico now
than there was four years ago, is
generally conceded. The endangering
of the oil supply is matter of very
great interest to both Great Britain
and the United States. What would
happen if a new revolution should
break out no one can tell, but one
thing is certain, that oil supply will
be preserved for the use of the allies

MORE THAN 1875 MEN
PUTIN CLASS ONE

The local exemption board has
been exceptionally busy the past
week going over the questionaires of
the men in Audubon county who
were in deferred classification and as
a result about l25 men have been
placed in class one. This action was
necessary in order To meet the de-
mands of the provost marshal for
men in the July and August drafts.
The recent order of the war de-
partment specifies that men with
wives. but no children or expectan-
cies, are to be considered as class
one men. To meet these instructions
the local board has already sent in
the names of so mef and today will
forward so more names. We will
not he able to publish the names OF
the men until the papers have been
sent back by the district boards. who
have the responsibility of re-classi.
fication.
On July 22nd Iowa must furnish
practically $4,000 men, and it is
thought this draft will exhaust all OF
class one. At that time from 125
to 140 men will be taken from Au
/ dubon county.

STILL GET THEM MINED

Pity the poor postmaster at Fort
Dodge! Each day, in addition to the
multiplicity of burdens incumbent on
all postmasters. he must redirect and
forward a vast quantity of mail in
tended by anxious wives, mothers
and sweethearts for loved ones at
Camp Dodge. The similarity between
the two names has been the cause of
much confusion and delay in the de-
livery of the mail, even though,
when the error is apparent, the mail
Is redirected in transit
Those who have been guilty in the
misdirection of mail however. should
console themselves with the report
that an army officer, full of pep and
efficiency, upon being ordered to re-
port at camp, secured his transporta-
ton from Chicago to Fort Dodge,
and actually arrived at the latter
place and began searching for the
cantonement, before he was aware of
the error.
The army itself, it would seem, is
not entirely free from confusion due
to the similarity of names.
