AUDUBON MERCHANT
COLD in DEATH
MFELESS BODY FOUND HANG
ING FROM CEILING IN EMP
TY STORE ROOM

The people of Audubon were. hor-
rified about noon last Saturday
when 1t was learned that J., H. Baker
had taken his own life by hanging.
When he did not reach Ibis home
promptly At twelve o'clock his wife
teiephoned to the store but got no
response. She Immediately tele-
phoned A. e. Bates who went to
the store and found the body OF Mr..
Baker.
Several persons saw Mr.. Baker in
his store about twelve O'Clock.
When Mr.. Bates went to the store
the, curtains were pulled down but
the front door was unlocked. On
making the gruesome discovery he
summoped help who with the assist
ance Of officials and DR.. Brooks
took the body down, which was
hanging by q small rope from a
banana hook In the ceiling. From
all Indications he had been dead but
a short time.
The exact cause for this rash act
is not known but those who were
close to him are profound In their
belief that his mental stability was
shaken by undermined health. For
some time past he had not been feel
ing well and 1t was noticed during
the past month especially that he
was not himself.
Mr.. Baker had been In the grocery
business in. this city about sixteen
years, occupying the same room on
South Park until the time Of his
death. About six weeks ago he
was unable to secure a satisfactory
lease on the building and decided
he would close out the stock rather
than meet the increase in the rental
asked. He conducted a special
sale and sold out his entire stock in
less than a. month.
He regretted to retire from bust
ness and this worry and etrain
combined with the condition of his
health no doubt were responsible for
his -untimely death.
All deplore his tragic death. He
was man who was universally liked
and considered OF good sound bust
ness judgment.
James Hartwell Baker, the son of
Samuel Rand Elisabeth Baker, was
born in johnson county, Iowa, Feb
ruary 1, 1862 and after IS years Of
life on earth passed away August 28.
1870. He was one of a family of
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1920-09-02

four sons and two daughters. The
boyh0od and early manhood of Mr..
Baker was spent at the home in
Johnson county. In 1884 he came
to Audubon county where the re-
mainder of his life was spent. He
engaged in farming in this county
from 1885 to 1902. In the fall of
1903 Mr.. Baker came with his fam
lily to Audubon where he entered into
business III which he remained until
just before his death.
On April 10, 1887 he was united
in the bonds Of marriage to Miss
Hattie Eddy. To this union we're
born two children, Donna and Escol
j., both Of whom survive him.
Mr.. Baker was a member of the
Odd Fellows lodge and also of the
Modern Woodmen. The testimony
Of his friends in them is that he was
highly esteemed In both orders.
He also was q member of thu
Methodist Episcopal church which
he Joined in 1902 and was counted
a member in clear standing at the
time Of his death.
Those surviving him and bereaved
by his death are his widow, Mrs.
Escol ]. and Donna Baker; his three
Hattie Baker: his son and daughter.
brothers, Jacob H. Baker of Lewis,
Iowa; Robert w. Baker of San Jose,
Calf; Birney p. Baker of Berkeley,
Calif.: his two siters, Mrs. Charles
Roberts of Takamah, Neb.; and Mrs.
Norval d. Snyder of Des Moines; bis
step-mother, Mrs. Emma Baker and
his half-sister, Miss Luella Baker,
both Of Colona. Iowa.
Mr.. Baker was q man highly re-
spected in the community where he
has been known for good many
years. He made friends easily and
kept them firmly. Inclined to De
rather quiet and Vnostentatious he
did not seek any heights of fame but
sought simply to do his duty as a
man and a husband and father In
his home. He was dearly attached
to those close to him and never was
untrue to their welfare. The SYM
patty and esteem of all who knew
him as friend and citizen and a
brother are very tender to those be-
reaved In hts family and to all who
mourn his departure.
Funeral services were held at
the Methodist church Wednesday af-
ternoon at two O'Clock, conducted
by the pastor, Rev. d. J. Shenton.
Out of respect to the deceased, all
business houses in the city were
closed from two to three o'clock.
The Odd Fellows attended the
funeral in q body and had charge
Of the service at the grave. Inter
ment was made in Maple Grove Gem
etery.

GOv.sCOx AND his PROOFS

j. OOVs NAVA AMI lXIo
The reason why Governor Cox pres
ferred to submit his proofs of the
great republican conspiracy to buy
the presidency ON the hastings rath-
er than in the witness chair, is now
perfectly plain. VIZ
The fact isy that the governor has
no evidence worthy of the name to,
submit. SHes has suspicious, accus4<
tions, differences and q mysterious
list Of cities upon which he says,that
certain quotas Of tribute were to VI
levied. But facts he has nonS.
Names Of contributors great or small
he has none. Proof of the sinistsr
conspiracy he so truculently charged
he has none. III,
Restricted by the rules OF evidence
he would make q sorry spectacle on
the witness stand. But on the plat
form he can use the arts Of the spa
cial pleader and the political orator,
to make his case seem plausible TO
the unthinking.
Yet when he had swept along q
sympathetic audience at Pittsburg
by his eloquence, his sarcasm, his
marshalling of charges and suspit
cions. Governor Cox was stumped By
q single -hard-hesded man In the au-
dience, At the alnpe he had inquir-
"a with 4ne sthsorvtieai effect X ~
eryone was convinced. This Tnap
arose and said he was not. The goy-
ernor demanded to know why. The
man replied: MI
Because you have not named 4
single individual or a corporation
that has contributed one penny"
The hero of hundreds of Quick-
wited victories over heckiers seems
to have been completely routed BY
this simple statement. He could
only reply that the republican Leah
ers could supply the missing name&
But taking Governor Cox's story
at its own face value, its absurdities
appear upon analysis. His mysteFi-
Gus list totals $1,000 900. ID the
presidency to be purchased for that
meager sum-or for any sum that
can be named, for that matter? And
what has become Of the 100000
900 corruption fund alleged in the
first democratic story, Of the $780,
100000 which Fifth Cousin R0ose-
welt talked SO glowingly about. Of
the 100000 at which Governor
Cox set the figure?
Even these 100000 Of the gov
ernor melt down to single $1,000

July II

Belated short covering and rather
light receipts started corn higher, but
the market encountered selling by east
ern houses and responded readily, as
new demand was of distinctly small pro-
portions.
Despite the decrease in receipts, the
cash market shows no strength. De-
liveries on July contracts have totaled
about 100000 bushels and there is prob
ability of further deliveries before the
month is completed.
Thorough liquidation Of unnecessary
holdings viii make it possible to rally
prices without much opposition, but, at
the same time, there is nothing in the
crop news or the cash demand to war
rant any protracted advance.
The market gives indications Of await
ing developments before taking any de-
cided trend. Crop conditions probably
will be Of more influence than recently.
Rather high temperatures in the ex-
Of December oats by cereal interests,
have given the market a degree Of firm
ness.
Beyond the buying by industries there
is no important demand.
UnfavOrable weather may rally prices
to some extent, but the action Of the
market is to be found in the trend of
corn prices.
Offerings Of cash wheat from the coun-
try were on fairly general scale and
at lower prices.
The British commission is reported to
have re-entered the market. Neverthe-
less, the buying power in the futdree
was negligible.
There Is a possibility of higher tenn
peratures in the northwest which may
rally the market.

Stock Market ReUie,D

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE Evening
Sun stock market review this afternoon
said:
Trading fell to small volume, while
price movements were uncertain and mar
row.
1.-The selling movement of yesterday
appeared to have pretty well run its
course, vet there was no disposition to
turn to the buying side and mark up
prices, although such little news as there
was overnight was constructive.
Railroad stocks We're very irregular,
with price changes for the most part
inconsequential and representative of
little more than professional operations.
1.-THE steels, equipments and oils rose
fractionally.
"Crucible Steel responded to the an
nouncement of another stock dividend
declaration by advancing S12 points to
1854 in the early trading, followed by
a partial reaction"
