journed sine die.
The platform favors tariff for reve.
nue. only, the election of United States
senators by direct vote of the people
and demands the enactment of such
legislation as will effectually destroy
all trusts. The platform expresses
sympathy with the purposes Of ma
tional labor organizations, as set forth
in recent address by Samuel Com
pers, John Mitchell and others calling
on labor to assert Its political rights
at the ballot box. A resolution was
adopted pledging to William Jennings
Bryan the support of Iowa Democrats
for the presidency in 1908.
The ticket nominated follows: Gov
ernor Claude R. Porter, Appanoose
county; lieutenant governor, John D.
Dennison, jr.. Dubuque county; secre-

haska county; treasurer, L. F. Dam
forth, Calhoun county; attorney gen.
eral. Fred A. Townsend, Monroe coun-
ty; superintendent public instruction,

supreme court. L. M. Fisher Of Scott
and E. M. Carr of Delaware county;
clerk supreme court, T. w. keenan,,
Page county; reporter supreme court,
H. M. Parker, Muscatine county; rail.
road commissioners. w. L. Carpenter,
Polk county, and E. X. Stoll, Henry
county.
The first ballot on governor re.
suited: Claude R. Porter, 1852; John
u. Dennison, 245h; George w. Ball,
231h; H. B. Boies, 1870; Donald Mac
rae. SO. The second ballot showed
slight gain for Porter. The name
of Macrae of Council Bluffs was with
drawn after the second ballot. The
third ballot gave Porter 3Ss. Dennison
249. Ball 179. Boies 16S. The fourth
ballot was started when Ball with
drew. Porter was then nominated re-
ceiving 5o7 votes; Botes 29s and Den
nison 13z.
John D. Dennison was nominated for
lieutenant governor by reclamation.
Both Porter and Dennison were called
before the convention and spoke
briefly. Other nominations were made
by reclamation until judges of the

roads say they are unable to fathom
the reason for this step by the Wa
bash and declare they will take no no

however, is that the Wabash, with its

followed the settlement of the recent
war on proportional rates between
the Missouri river and st. Louis.

TWO OLD PIONEERS

Home. Son Died and They
Have Moved to
Daughters.

Grandpa and Grandma Greenlee,

Will, and family, in Cameron town
ship, came down to the home of
their daughter, Mrs. w. A. Clark,

mainder of their days at this pleas

MIR. and Mrs. Greenlee, becoming
too old to live alone longer, took up
their abode with their son two years
ago and have made that their home
until death entered the door of that
family and took from them the son
who had incidentally cared for them
for 80 many years.
We learn that Mrs. Greenlee, wife
of William H., the deceased husband,
will sell her stock, machinery, ETC.,
this fall and move to Audubon wheI
