the invitation of man who has since
boasted that he voted the straight
democratic ticket two years ago. After
the masterful address of the chairman
of the convention along the progressive
lines of the state platform, the conven-
tion was not anxious to hear a 'sstand
pat speech from one who left the re-.
publican party several years ago and
supported candidate for the presi-
dency on a platform which relegated
the tariff question to the different con-
gressional districts for such decision as
the people might desire. Neither were
they anxious to hear discussion of the
money question from one who was OPP
posed to putting the "Gold Stand
ard" plank in the st. Louis plat
form in 1896. From this it is evident
that while the colonel is now making
"stand pat speeches, he has not always
practiced what he now preaches.'

DROPPED DEAD IN HIS FIELD.
Harvey Rambo, a Highly Respected
Farmer Dies from Heart Failure.

Harvey Rambo, one OF the best known
farmers OF Decatur county. living Il few
miles northeast of Leon, was found
dead in his corn field last Thursday
afternoon, his death being caused from
heart disease from which he had been
a sufferer for number of years. He had
been feeling as we'll however as usual
and was making arrangements to rent
his farm and take life easy. After din
ner he hitched up his team and went
out in the corn field for load of corn,
and not returning his wife went to look
for him couple Of hours later and
found him lying in the field, the team
standing close by, with his hands clasp
ed over his heart, which was position
he always assumed when his heart
troubled him.
The deceased was born in Greenbriar
county, Virginia, on the 10Th day OF
April, 1881. He moved with his parents
to Gallipolis, Ohio, when he was three
years old and two years later to Knox
Co. Illinois, where on the 10th day of
December, 1860, he was married to Mar
tha Allen. Ten years after their mar
riage Mr.. and Mrs. Rambo came to Iowa
settling in Decatur county, where he
continued to reside until his death
which occurred September IL, 1903, at
his farm in Center township. Mr.. and
Mrs. Rambo We're the parents Of ten
children, all of them living except
Maude, who died last March at Hast
ings, Neb. He was converted a few
years ago and especially since his
daughters death, has been trying to
prepare for the worst to come. He was
an uncommonly Industrious man and his
farm which few years ago was forest
is now a model of neatness. He was a
great lover OF music and his natural
musical abilities were such that he
could execute the most difficult music
on the violin with ease learning it all bv
ear. No lover OF music who ever listen
ed to the matchless strains OF Cncle
Harve's violin Will ever forget it and
but few professional violinists could in
terest a crowd after Uncle Harve had
played for them. He was lover OF
nature, skilled hunter and there are
standing today several trees with bees
in them marked with Uncle Haryes in
itials Mr.. Rambo will be remembered
by all who knew him as an honest. vir-
tuous man, who was absolutely free
from hypocrisy and dissimuIations; one
who was true to his family and his
friends. He died while alone in the
field, and was found by his wife and
a neighbor lady; his faithful dog was
with him and it was by this means
he was found. The interment was at
High Point cemetery. The daughters
were all present but by some means
the boys who are in Washington were
unable to get the word and consequent
ly We're not at the funeral. The funeral
services were conducted by Rev. Chas.
Reeder and the church at High Point
was not large enough to accommodate
the large concourse of people who at
tended the funeral

| On motion the nomination was made
unanimous, and there were loud calls
for Sankey. He was not in the hall and
a committee was appointed to inform
him of his nomination and escort him to
the convention hall. He shortly made
his appearance and as gallant old
| fighter, both in the civil war and the
many political battles which lowed,
came stumping up to the platf with
his artificial leg, he was Civ nova
tion which must certainly havs lpress-
ed him and assured him that he stood
very close to the voters of Decatur
county. Mr.. Sankey said:
Gentlemen of the conventions;
81 have not sought this nomination,
and take it with considerable reser-
walton. Still, if you think am avail
able and can be elected, / am not
the kind of a democrat to funk. | will
accept the nomination and will make
the best fight can for you. will say
that if elected so far as | can / will
serve you faithfully, and l will not be
in the employ of a corporation either"
| The next office was that of county
treasurer, and of course there was no
opposition to w. Fl. Young, the present
popular and efficient treasurer and he
/ was nominated by acclamation:
Young said:
Gentlemen of the convention:
| thank you for the nomination. |
feel that it is an honor conferred upon
me by receiving the nomination by ac-
clamation. Two years ago pledged,
before like convention, that | would
use all honorable means to secure my
election, and if elected would endeavor
to conduct the business of the Office in
such manner as to cause no one to
regret having cast his ballot for me. l
will say to you gentlemen that | have
done that to the best of my ability, and
if elected again shall try and serve
the people in more acceptable manner
1 than before. ] believe | can do this
because am better qualified than was
two years ago.
For sheriff there was only one name
presented to tire convention, that of
Thomas Wallace, of Leon, who made
the race two years ago, and came
within Is votes of being elected. Mr..
Wallace was rendered the nomination
by acclamation, and in accepting it he
said:
"Mr. Chairman, Gentlemen of the CON
vention:
81 thank you for the honor. want to
say that shall do all in my power to be
elected, and if elected, | shall do my
very best to fill the office to the best of
my ability"

stranger things had happened right
here in the state of Iowa than the cleo
tion of Mr.. Sullivan. Mr.. McGinnis' ad-
dress was a rare treat to the delegates
and was most thoroughly enjoyed.
AT the close of his speech Mr..
McGinnis announced that important cli-
ents We're waiting for him in this office,
and asked the convention to excuse him
for short time, calling M. Woodland to
preside during his absence.
! The report of the committee on reso-
lutions was then called for, and were
read to the convention by Mr.. S. W..
, Hursts, chairman of the committee, and
were adopted by the convention with
out dissenting voice.
We, the democracy of Decatur county
in convention assembled, by your COM
mittee report as follows:
We affirm the principles of democracy
| approved in the declaration of Ameri-
can Independence; that all men are
by nature free and equal; that they are
endowed by their Creator with certain
unalienable rights; that among these
are life, liberty and the pursuit of hap
piness; that to insure these rights gov
ernments are instituted among men,
deriving their just powers in the CON
senttof the governed.
| We re-affirm the national democratic
platform adopted at Kansas City, as far
as it applies to the present conditions
that equal rights for all men and special
lnUnc n
tion of political economy. That we
pledge ourselves to promote and carry
out these principles in county, state and
nation, by every honorable means with
i'll our power; that abuse of these princi-
pies, have resulted in protective tariff,
| collected from the many for the benefit
of the few "standpatters''- in proof of
this, refer to the vast aggregation of
unearned wealth, in the hands of the
trusts and corporations, controlling
every avenue of wealth, debating the
policy of the republican party and this
administration resulting in policies
antagonistic and dangerous to the inter
ests, peace and harmony of the Ameri-
can people; and we appeal to all voters
who believe in equal rights for all and
special privileges to none, to aid us in
for the people and by the people.
The resolutions as adopted seemed to
| please everyone, and the committee was
| complimented for the able manner in
which they had performed their duty
The democrats of Decatur county are
united and harmony prevails. The cam
paign will be fought on democratic
principles and the prospects for the
election of the county ticket are good

mere talk, but is a well-prover
fact.
The GAZETTE has had many
editors who have achieved for the
paper reputation at home and
abroad. We know of them only
by the impress they left on this
community. Within the recollec.
ton of people now living there have
been o. P. Baldwin, who after.
wards became engaged with the
Baltimore Sun in an editorial
capacity; then G. G. Baldwin, who
lived the whole of his life in Rock
bridge, and died near Balcony
Falls about twenty years ago, a
profound lawyer and scholar ;
James T. Patton, a.man of ability
and u local historian of note, and
for six years Judge of the County
Court of Rockbridge; Alphonso
Smith, who was mortally wounded
at Port Republic; David P. Curry,
q captain in the 25th Va. Infantry !;
Col. James X. EdmondsOn. Prof.
John Z. Campbell, W. W. Scott,
Josiah McNutt and others during
the war period. After the close of
the war, its first editor was Col.
HI. Letcher, and he was
followed by that brilliant writer,
John j. Lafferty, who sold out in
1878 to Barclay d Co. BY this
transfer A. T. Barclay and James
L. Patton became It's editors, and
with a slight change in ownership
It was conducted by E. H. Barclay
until the period of his untimely

,e important factors in building it

An Appeal.

The following appeal made by Miss
Myra b. Payne of Manassas, Va, OF
behalf Of thee Lexington Chapter
Daughters of the Contederacy, has
been received by Mr.. j. Med. Adail
with the request that it be publ ished
in the Lexington papers:
At the convention of the Grand
Division of the Daughters of the
COnfederacy, in Lexington, Va,
Oct. 8, 1902, an appeal was made by
Miss Mary Nelson Pendleton, secre-
tary of the Mary Gusts Lee Chapter,
of Lexington. asking that the
Daughters assist the Lexington
Chapter in buying Mrs. Jackson's
home for the sum of 5000, to con-
vert it into hospital for the sick
and suffering of our land.
This appeal came from the heart of
Mrs. Jackson herself. who is almost
blind and in reduced circumstances.
With loving, sympathetic hearts we
take up this work, and beg the earn
est support OF Virginia's sons and
daughters.
1t was on the battlefield of Manas-
sas, in the first battle in which he
engaged, that Thomas j. Jackson
won the immortal name OF rs tone
WALL and those who followed hi,o,
footsore and weary, from Manassas,
to Charlottesville, and know that
in instinct and feeling no cavalier
that followed King Charles ever lore
a knightlier heart" we turn and beg
that if they have anything to give
they give il now. Let it be added to
the Jackson memorial fund, that
Mrs. Jackson's last days may lie made
comfortable.
o, veterans and daughters of the
Confederacy, let us not wait to build
for her monument of stone, but let
us crown her with a wreath of love
and sympathy as the widow, the
counselor, the friend of one of the
noblest men that ever lived.
