The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1904-10-27

Said a prominent republican the other
day, "In regard to voting for county at
torney this year, look at it just as if
was going to employ an attorney to look
after my own business, and therefore l
shall vote for Geo. w. Baker, the demo-
cratic candidate This is the correct
view to take. If the voters will take
the matter home as this gentleman did,
and ask themselves if they had case
in court and had to pick between Geo.
W. Baker and w. B. Kelley as their at
torney, which one would they employ,
in nine cases out of ten they would en-
ploy Mr.. Baker, and this is very
strong argument as to why he should be
elected, for the county attorney is
simply the attorney for all the tax
payers in the county.

VOTERS ATTENTION.
Read the Following Carefully and
Consider Before Yeu Vote for
the Amendment.
RESOLUTION ON BIENNIAL ELECTION. I,

RESOLUTION ON BIENNIAL ELECTION.
Whereas, There is now before the
electors of Iowa a measure known as
the biennial Election Bill" which pro-
poses to abolish the elections on Off
years, be it therefore
Resolved, by the City Labor Con-
gress of Clinton and Lyons, Iowa, That
this body be opposed to the proposed
change in the election laws for the fol-
lowing reasons:
"First-it will bring the important
state elections and important congress
sional and national elections at the
same time, thus confusing the minds of
the voters, and under the Australian
ballot system make it more difficult for
them to express their wishes on candi-
dates and measures.
"Second-It will make it more difficult
to defeat unworthy candidates for
county and state Offices, as the atten-
tion of the voters will each year be
taken up with national politics either in
congressional or national campaign.
"Third-It is important that the can
didates for public Office be made to
answer to the people for their acts. A
number Of labor measures Child labor
bill, etc., were defeated by the enemies
Of labor in the last legislature, and
should the biennial bill be carried, it
means the extension of the terms Of
Office of these senators and representa-
tives, covering an additional session OF
the Legislature, and making it impossible
to introduce and pass any laws in the
interest Of labor for at least three
years.
"Fourth-We believe that state and
national politics should be kept sepa.
rate, so that the voter can express him.
self clearly on each issue, and on eacI
candidate seeking his suffrage.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1904-10-27

1t is agreed on all sides that the coun-
try has not in century had duller
national campaign than that now drag
ging on toward the November election
day. 1t is only occasionally that men
are heard to talk of politics and what
political talk is heard is generally about
the chances of some local candidate.
The enthusiasm of the few political
meetings is the dullest enthusiasm ever
seen in campaign. 1t is of the mechan-
zeal kind and is that of Office holders
and Office seekers.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1904-10-27

L. A. Brown is making most effective
campaign for the Office of county audi
tor, solely on his record and his merits
and the best feature of his candidacy is
that nothing can truthfully be brought
against him. Even the most straight
laced republican can accuse him of
nothing worse than being democrat
which he does not deny. Politics aside,
very few men doubt which of the candi-
dates for auditor would give us the best
service in this Office.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1904-10-27

We need good substantial man as a
member of the board of supervisors, who
is familiar with business methods, for
the board is the the business agent of
the taxpayers. That is the kind of a
man S. H. Covington, the democratic
candidate is. He has been successful in
managing his own business affairs and
would take with him on the board the
necessary business qualifications to
save the county many dollars each year.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1904-10-27

Hit the biennial election scheme
rap. when you go to vote. 1t is.in the
interest of the corporations, combina-
lions and corrupt politicians. 1t places
all elections in the same year. 1t
brings congressional and state and
county elections all in the same year.
You cannot run a campaign on state
issues alone, if you adopt the biennial
election bill. Vote against it, and keep
the elections as near to the people as
you can.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1904-10-27

There are eight national tickets in the
field this year, as follows:
Democratic-Parker and Davis.
Republican-Roosevelt and Fair
banks.
Populist- Watson and Tibbles.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES and Carroll
Socialist-Debs and Hanford.
Negro Liberty -Corregan and Cox.
Lincoln-Penn and Jones.
Observation-Disclosures and King.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1904-10-27

Don't forget to vote for "Jim" Cozad,
the democratic candidate for clerk. He
is a cripple and has made his way in the
world under very adverse circum-
stances, but has proven he is not an
idler, and would made competent and
obliging county official. Nobody can
say ought but good of Mr.. Cozad, and
everything points to his election, so
help the good work along and reward a
worthy young man.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1904-10-27

The many complimentary remarks
made about the democratic county ticket
from men of all political parties is a fine
Indication Of how the people are feeling.
The convention that nominated these
men was composed of the rank and file
of the party, and the selections were
carefully made. The best of satisfac-
tion is felt in all parts of the county
over the nominations and the feeling of
unanimity in the party indicates large
vote and loyal support.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1904-10-27

A. G. Bunny, democratic candidate for
county recorder, is citizen whose
record as an honest, upright gentleman
is one all should be proud of. He does
not profess to be a politician, and has
never before been candidate for Office
and is simply a hard working citizen
who is deserving of the Office to which
he aspires.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1904-10-27

Republicans who are tired of the die
tation of the Leon ring should hit them
a rap this year by voting for the demo-
cratic county candidates, and if the ring
is defeated again this year perhaps they
will realize that the people can not be
voted like cattle as they dictate.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1904-10-27

The largest presidential vote ever
polled was 14,700,000 cast in 1896; in
1900 the total was 13,967,000. 1t may
reach 15,000,000 this year, but probably
will not, as the indications in some
quarters point to a rather quiet cam
paign.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1904-10-27

Voting is not only privilege, but a
duty. Every man in Decatur county
should go to the polls and do his duty.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1904-10-27

Democrats will give the county ticket
their solid support. Every man on the
ticket can and will be elected if demo-
Gratis do their duty.
