Laurel Circuit Court nearly year
ago for the murder of Sherman Mere
dith and given a life sentence, was
convicted last week in the same
court on the charge of having kill
ed Meredith's wife. The verdict this

THE AGRICULTURAL SPECIAL
The agricultural train has made all
the points scheduled during the last
week, and from reports in the press
1t has been received enthusiastically,
great crowds viewing the exhibits
and listening to the lectures. The
train arrived at Berea, Friday evening.
and so many were at the station to
study the displays that meme could
either see or hear anything owing
to the crush. Good crowds, however,
attended the lectures at the Chapel
which were good.
Although tho stops are Of such
short duration that almost nothing
can be gained, yet the very fact
that two things are emphasized by
the sending out of this train and
these lecturers, much good is newt
able. No one can be SO blind and so
deaf as not to realize these things
that Kentucky is away behind IN
agricultural matters and that great
improvement is possible Dull indeed
must tho farmer be then, who will
not get to thinking and reading, and
who will not use improved methods.

No man is better qualified to fill
the duties of clerk of the district
court than E. E. Beck. He has serv-
ed as deputy clerk for the past four
years and is familiar with the work
of the Office. He is careful and
painstaking official and believes that
county official should devote his
time to the duties of the Office. He
has never held a county office aside
from serving as deputy clerk, and if
you want to see worthy and COM
petent man in the clerks Office you
will vote for Ed Beck. He can fill
the Office in such manner that the
people who vote for him, as we'll as
the citizens in general will have no
cause for complaint over the manner
in which the clerks Office IS run.

r. E. Mclaughlin has faithfully
served the people of Decatur county
as county auditor for nearly two
years and he is entitled to a second
term on the ground that faithful
county official should be given a
second term. No man can find any
fault with the capable manner in
which Mr. Mclaughlin has conduct
ed his office, and a good and faith
full servant of the people should be
rewarded He has endeavored to
serve all the people, has employed a
competent deputy, and between
them the ardous duties of the audi
tors Office have been most carefully
looked after, and the records and
business of the county kept in a
business like and neat manner. Vote
for Rube Mclaughlin the popular
candidate for second term as
county auditor.

Democratic Candidate for Re-Elec.
ton as Member of the Board
OF Supervisors.

Two years ago there was de-
mand from all Earts OF the county
that a good businessman be elected
as a member of the board OF super
visors in order to assist in getting
the countys financial affairs in good
shape. The voters decided they
wanted Patrick Griffin to fill the Of
fee and we'll and truly has he per-
formed his duty, without fear or
favor. Pat Griffin has offended
some men since he became men,
Der of the board because he insisted
on doing his duty, whether friend or
enemy was effected by his action.
He has done his duty as he saw it.
and will continue to do his duty as
long as he remains on the board. If
his election depended on his own
action in many cases where it re-
CURED him to neglect his duty, he
would not hesitate a minute, but
would go down to defeat rather than
fail to perform his sworn duty. De-
catur county cannot afford to have
Patrick Griffin retire from the board.
He is needed there, and if the tax
payers vote for their own interests
he will be reelected by an increased
majority.

w. H. Snyder, the democratic can
didate for the term as, m ember of
the board of supervisors commence
ing next January, to fill the vacancy
caused by the retirement from the
board of S. P. Wiley, is the kind of
a man who Is needed on the board.
Honest, fearless, Straightforward,
that is the kind of man w. H.
Snyder is. He will If elected do his
duty according to his conscience,
and will have no pets to reward or
enemies to punish. He will look
after the business affairs of the
county as if they were his own and
all who know him are aware that
Mr.. Snyder Is a safe and conserva
tive business man, and his counsel
as a member of the board of super
visors would be of assistance to the.
other two members in their arduous
duties. He believes that the county's

a loose or slip shod manner, but that
the money expended should secure

ss-.. .,.....;...a Attorney: i,.s. j, !. ].
Geo. W. Baker, the democratic
candidate for county attorney, has
made a record in that office during
the several terms he has been elect
ed to office. as being a fearless
prosecutor, but while doing SO he
has at all times kept the interests
of the taxpayers in view and has
always made it his aim to keep down
the criminal court expenses to the
very lowest figures, while at the
same time doing his duty as public
prosecutor. He is able to handle all
of the criminal cases which come TO
trial and does not have to employ
assistant counsel in order to try. a
case. The people of Decatur county
know what kind of county at
torney George Baker is, and they
have made up their minds that they
want him to take charge of the Office
of county attorney again. He is one
of the very best prosecuting attor-
neys in the state, and his legal
knowledge will save the taxpayers
hundreds of dollars every year.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1912-10-31

Honest Bill Cozad, who has filled
the office of county treasurer for the
past two years is going to be re-
elected for a second term to look
after the funds Of Decatur county.
In every settlement with the board
of supervisors the funds have been
accounted for to penny, and he has
faithfully performed the duty OF
collecting the taxes levied upon the
citizens of Decatur county, and dis
bursed the money on the proper
warrants. He is a safe man to
handle the thousands of dollars
which pass through the county trea-
surer's hands every year. By right
of precedent he is entitled to his
second term, for he has been an ac-
comodating and efficient county oftic-
ial Don't forget to vote for w. c..
Cozad for treasurer next Tuesday.

The Office of sheriff is one in
which the farmers generally take an
interest, for majority of the sher-
ifs elected in the state are farmers.
The democratic candidate for sheriff,
Chas. R. Piercy, is farmer, one
whose whole life has been spent in
Decatur county. He would make an
ideal sheriff, brave and fearless in
the discharge of his duty, and a man
who would never finch in the face
of danger. Charley Percy has al
ways done the tasks assigned him in
any vocation in a thorough manner,
and if elected sheriff, he would be a
man of the people, devoting all his
energies to discharging the duties of
his Office. He would see that the
laws are enforced and that no guilty
microscopes. Cast your vote next
Tuesday for Chas. r. Piercy for
sheriff.

The Office of representative in the
legislature is one in which the citi-
zens of Decatur county are vitality
interested, and the man who should
represent Deca tur county in the next
general assembly is M. F.. Thomp-
son, the democratic candidate. Mr..
Thompson is a man whom the best
interests of all parties can support
and he has the assurance of receiv-
ing a big republican vote from that
faction of the republican party who
were dissatisfied with the republican
nominee. You will make no mis-
take If you cast your vote for Mr..
Thompson, and if elected Decatur
county will have a worthy represen-
7 tative in the legislature.

Superintendent. =.

There is but one lady candidate
for any county office in Decatur
county this year. that being Miss
Mabel Horner. the democratic candi-
date for county superintend ent, an
office for which she is eninently
we'll qualified. She has the educa-
ton, the years of experience as an
instructor, has taught in both rura :.
and graded schools in DeCatul
county, and the voters sho see
that she takes charge of the school
affairs for the coming two years.
Her education has been such as to
specially fit her to fill this most i'm.
portant office, and if you want to
see Decatur county have the best
schools kept up to date, you will
cast your vote for Miss Mabel
Horner for county superintendent
next Tuesday.

The Office of county recorder is
one which requires a careful and
painstaking official, for mistakes
made in recording deeds, and other
instruments may cause endless liti-
CATION and trouble in years to come.
In the democratic candidate, P. E.
Shirley, the voters will have no OPP
portunity of voting for a man who
has always attended to any task
assigned him in thorough manner.
He never neglects anything If he
was recording your deed or mort
gage it would be recorded exactly as
the instrument was written. Mr..
Shirley is man who enjoys the re-
spect and esteem of all who know
him. He will appreciate your sup
port at the polls next Tuesday.
