You Should Vote for these Candidates.

court is one which requires man of
good judgment, education and business
training. These are qualifications which
are possessed in unlimited quantities by !
John l.. Mendenhall, Of High Point town
ship, the democratic candidate for this
office. Mr.. Mendenhall was born and
raised in High Point township, and is
considered one of the brightest young
men in that part Of the county. He re-
ceived a good education and is an extra
fine penman. Although all his life he
has been farmer he has for number
of years held the Office of township
clerk of High Point township and his
books are models of neatness. He is
tireless worker aud if elected to the
his entire time to the duties of the
Office and they would be discharged as
they should be. He would not be run
mig around visiting and attending to
other business good part of the time.
Johnnie Mendenhall is one of the best
young men of Decatur county, and not
single man can be found WHO has any
thing but good words to say of him. He
is methodical in all his business trans
actions, and with him in the clerks
Office the books and papers would be
kept in the very best shape. The clerk
OF the court comes in contact with
many persons during the year who have
business i'll the district court and every
one would receive courteous and prompt
service from him. Mr.. Mendephall has
never held a county Office and this
t ling of keeping one man or a set Of
men in the county Offices for half their
life is getting to be an old story with the
voters Of the county. There are too
many good men ami to- few county
offices % bn filled AMI it is time the"e
should be Il change. Mr.. Mendenball
has been making an active campaign
and in every part of TIL" county has re-
ceivea many pledges Of support which
if they are delivered next Tuesday will
elect hi n clerl; by good big majority,
and there Is no mon in Decatur county
VINO deserves better IT, atmeut at tho
hands OF tbn vntcrs han he does. When
you go to vote next Tuesday just keep
johnnie Mendenhall in mind and be
sure and mark a cross in the square in
front of his name.

OF all the county Offices there is one
which can be filled just as we'll or
better by lady than 4 gentleman, and |
that is the otiico Of county recorder,
and the democratic party has this year
honored one of the brightest young
ladies in Decatur county with the nomi-
nation for this Office, Hiss Susie Sears,
of Decatur township. The work of the |
recorders Office is entirely clerical,
consisting of copying the deeds, mort
cages and other Instruments to be
placed on record. Miss Sears is a
young lady who was born and raised in
Decatur county, being the daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. ]. Sears, one of the
pioneer families who settled in High
Point years ago, where they resided un-
til few years ago when they moved to
Decatur township. Miss Sears received
a splendid education in the public
schools and then attended college in
Des Moines, and has been employed in
office work for several years as we'll as
a teacher in the schools. She is an
extra fine penman and tirst-class stem
ographer, both of which accomplish
ments being very useful in tho record
er's Office. While it is true that lady
is handicapped in campaigning, Miss
Sears has proven tireless worker and
has visited nearly every section of the
county, and has received hearty words
Of encouragement in her race for a
county Office. She is young lady OF
character and would make model
county recorder and the books would
be kept in the very finest condition.
Don't you think that once in while
the ladies should receive some recogni-
tion and be elected to some of the
county offices which they are qualified
to fill? If you do don't let party stand
in your way when it comes to voting
for county recorder next Tuesday.
There is no political issues at stake in
electing the county recorder, and all
there is to do is to elect some one who
will ably discharge the duties OF the
Office, and it must be conceded that
Miss Sears is eminently we'll qualified
to do this. A vote for her next Tues
day is an endorsement Of your respect
for the ladies and it is splendid oppor
tunity for the gentlemen Of Decatur
county to show their gallantry. See
that you make no mistake in marking
your ballot and be sure that you place
a cross in the square in front of the
name of the only lady who appears on
the official ballot.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1908-10-29

party is not misplaced, and should the
voters of the county see fit to place the
same confidence in him and elect him to
the Office he would we'll and faithfully
discharge the duties of the Office, keep
ing in mind at all times that he was
the servant Of all the people of Decatur
county and that his work should be in
their interest. His opponent has been in
Office now TO- four years. Is not that
enough for one man where the salary is
the incentive for filling county Office?
A change in any public Office once in a
while is a good thing, and it would be
a good thing if a change was made this
year and Walter Osborn was elected as
as county auditor. See that by all
means You place cross in front of his
name on the ballot which you vote next
Tuesday. You'll never have reason to
regret doing so.

The Office of sheriff of any county
should be filed by a man of known
courage and integrity, one who will
never shirk the responsible duties Of
his Office, oven at the risk Of his life,
and such man the people Of Decatur
county have an opportunity to elect as
sheriff in the person of "Bill' Lloyd, of
Decatur City. Mr.. Lloyd comes from
the good old Lloyd stock, always con-
sidered one of the best families in
building up Decatur county. He is just
plain "Bill" Lloyd to all his friends, and
all who know him are pleased to be his
friend. He is made Of the kind of ma
terial that it takes to make good
sheriff, and everything indicates that
he will receive tremendous vote and
big majority next Tuesday. He has
never held county Office, nor been re-
jected by the voters of Decatur county.
Two years ago the majority of the
voters of Decatur county said by their
votes that they did not desire his
opponent to be their sheriff, notwith-
standing he was the candidate Of a
party having a big majority in this
county, and thoy are going to reject
him again next Tuesday. 1t is being
claimed that Lloyd will even carry his
opponents own township, notwithstand-
ing the big republican majority in that
township. We are not abusing Mr..
Andrew but believe that Mr.. Lloyd will
make the best sheriff and in all the
county Offices the best man should be
elected, for it is the man, not the party,
who will give the best service. If Mr..
Lloyd is elected sheriff he will make an
ideal officer, and will bring to the Office
that indomitable pluck and energy
which has characterized the man all
through life, and there is not more
popular man in Decatur county. Vote
for the man, and you will vote for Mr..
Lloyd. Mr.. Lloyd has been . success
full farmer, stock shipper and business

Candidate for County Treasurer.
The Office of treasurer OF Decatur
county is one requiring unbounded hon
esty and integrity, for the county treas
urer is the Gust, dian of all the money
paid in by the taxpay ers of the county.
He is your financial agent and repre-
sents you in handling the ak money.
In the person of W. G Cozad, of Morgan
township, the democrats have caDdi-
date who has the repute tion Of being
one of the few mer "whose word is as
good as a government bond aud a man
who is eminently we'll qualified to fill
this most responsible position. Mr.. CoZad
has been resident Of Morgan township
all his life, more than half century,
and it is common remark down in that
part of the county that there is no use
Of any man trying to beat Honest Bill
Cozad. He has held township Offices
for great many years and has always
discharged his duties in q careful man
ner which has won the approval Of
everybody, regardless Of politics, and
it has become hard matter to get any
one to take nomination against him.
MIR. Cozad is one Of the influential farm.
ers of Decatur county, heavy tax
payer and one who has always taken
great interest in public affairs. He
would make an ideal county treasurer,
being one of the most accommodating
men in the county, while at the same time
he would scrupulously look after the
interest of the county and see that all
the taxes levied are collecte and that
none escaped paying their just taxes.
A county can lose thousands Of dollars
by having treasurer who does not
look after the collection of delinquent
taxes, and if treasurer attends to his
duties he can save his salary to the
taxpayers several times over in the
matter Of delinquent collections alone.
Elect W. G. Cozad as treasurer and you
will see that the taxes are collected as
they are intended to be collected by
law. II Mr.. Cozad was as we'll ac-
quainted with the voters in every town.
ship Of the coul ty as he is in the south
east corner where he has resided for so
many years there would not even be a
question as to his election. He has been
making an active campaign and has met
many voters, but OF course cannot see
everyone, and we want to commend him
to all who don't know him personally
Cast your vote for Cozad for treasurer
and you will never have cause to re-
greet it.

catur county to the candidacy of Hon.
r. j. Sankey, the democratic candidate
for representative in the legislature.
Mr.. Sankey served term in this capac-
ity, and it was conceded that he we'll
and truly represented the people and
not the corporations. He is splendid
speaker and his opinions were always
respected and favorably commented
upon even by the opposition. While in
the legislature he started the move
ment for two cent passenger law in
Iowa, introducing bill fixing two cents
per mile as the charge for travel on all
railroads in Iowa. His bill was defeated,
but he made such a gallant fight for it on
the floor Of the house that the attention of
the entire state was attracted, with the
result that at the following election both
the democratic and republican platforms
contained planks pledging their party
to support such a measure and it was
finally enacted into law, and the peo-
pie can thank E. J. Sankey for being
able to travel now for two cents per
mile. Other measures which he intro
duced were bills requiring state exam
alton of private banks, valued insur-
ance policy law, one for uniformity Of
school text books throughout the state,
one requiring railroads to furnish
necessary private crossings where farm
ers owned land on both sides of the
railroad right Of way, one to prevent
fire insurance companies from insuring
property for greater sum than it's ac-
tual cash value, and every voter in the
county knows that each one of these
bills were in the interest of the COM
mon people. Compare the record of
Mr.. Sankey with that of Mr.. Dye who
served in the last legislature and then
decide as to which of the two men will
best represent you. The one is fear
less and controlled by no clique of pol
iticians or railroad and corporate in
fluences and the other, WE'LL look up
the record and see what Mr.. Dye ac-
complished as member of the last
legislature, and you will find that the
principal thing which he did was to
bolt the caucus of his own party and
prevent the election Of Gov. Cummins
as United States Senator. Decatur
county should have real representa-.
tive in the legislature, one ever ready
to fight for the rights of the people
and one who will be credit to the
county and it's citizens. Such a man is
E. ]. Sankey, the gallant old veteran
who responded nobly to the call of his
country, and as the result of so doing
is today minus !f&b, but his physica
disability does not affect his menta
| ability. The people need such men a.
E. ]. Sankey in the legislature and wher
the votes are counted next Tuesda,
night there should be big majority fo
E. ]. Sankey.

SohuNotS lOA SouHty nuullOIs
The above is the likeness of Walter
Osborn, the popular young man from
Burrell township, who is the democratic
candidate for county auditor, and he is
Decatur county product, having been
born and been continuous resident Of
Burrell township ever since, residing on
the farm upon which he was born. If
there is any preference to be shown in
the selection of county officials surely
Decatur county people should have the
preference and many Of the voters are
getting tired of having some fellow
come in from another state and live
here few years and then bob up for
office. Mr.. Osborn is farmer, not a
politician, but he is an excellent young
man who has shown his ability as
good farmer and he would make just as
good county official. He is quiet and
unassutning, and does not try to push
himself forward, but he is one of the
best young farmers to be found in De-
catur county. and not a single word can
be said against his character. In the
vicinity where he has resided all his
life there is no man who enjoys the es-
TEEN and respect Of the people in a
greater degree. He is one Of the most
popular men in Burrell township. He
was not an office seeker, but in casting
around for an available candidate his
party selected him and he felt that
under the circumstances it was bis duty
to accept the nomination and make the
best race he could for the Office. The
confidence placed in him by his own
