The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1904-09-15

After their recent sorrow Mr.. and
Mrs. Grover Cleveland are prepared to
bury themselves in the seclusion of a
far-away homestead, and they have
leased a comfortable farmhouse near
Sandwich, N. H., for the summer. This
is most historic place, being one of the
Oldest farmhouses in the country and
being one of the best preserved. 1t
formerly belonged to Silas Frye, a
wealthy farmer, who put in it furniture
of mahogany and plate of pewter. 1t is
said the Clevelands may buy the prop
erty and use it for summer home. The
Frye farm is eleven miles from West
Ossippee, the nearest station, which
shows that the former president and
his wife wish to cut themselves off from
the world in general. The death of
little Ruth Cleveland has crushed her
parents, and some of the closest friends
of Mrs. Cleveland have not seen her
since the child's death. Within few
days the spacious Cleveland house in
Princeton will be closed.

of Iowa. twas started in 1858, and the
fair of this year will be the fiftieth held
in the state, as the first was held in
October 1854, and one, that of 1898, was
missed on account of the Omaha
exposition. There have been twenty
three presidents during that period and
six secretaries. the premiums have
grown from 81 900 to $4,000 during the
period, and the receipts now are about

Resolved, by the democrats of Deca-

that we hereby endorse the platform OF

lieving that the election of the demo
cratic national ticket will promote
peace and industry, and protect the
rights of all.
We congratulate the people of Deca-

will honor the party and conserve
public interests.
On motion the report was adopted by
unanimous vote.
On motion the convention then pro-
ceeded to the nomination of candidates
for the various county Offices, the first
ballot to be an informal one.
The first Office was that of auditor,
there being three candidates for the
nomination, L. A. Brown, of Davis City,
L. ]. Barr, of Lamont, and Jesse Wion, of
Bloomington township. The nomination

On motion the nomination of Mr..
Cozad was made unanimous and he was
called out. His appearance on the
stage standing on his crutch was the
signal of hearty applause, and he was
hailed as sure winner. He contented
himself by simply thanking the conven-
tion for the honor and said he would try
his best to be elected, and had reason
to believe he would be.
For the Office of recorder there were
five candidates, but the nomination
went to A. G. Bunney, of Garden Grove,
on the first formal ballot by good big
majority over all. Like Mr. Cozad Mr..
Bunney had been in the field for some
time and the nomination was conceded
to him before the convention met. The
other candidates were F. w. Sears, of
Center, John Hannah, of Decatur City,
]. w. Ownby, of Decatur City, and L. Q.
c. Pryor, of Leon. The result of the
ballots for recorder were as follows:
