THE friends of John Brown do not
claim he is a saint. If he were they
wouldn't vote for him. A saint could
not fill the office of sheriff. They do
claim though that in point of charact-
er he is fully OH par, to say the least,
with his democratic opponent. They
claim that he is an honest man. q TEN.
perate man, good citizen and man
who pays his debts and supports his
family. They claim he is a brave
man, and who will deny it? They
claim he is man of "sand," nerve
and discretion "sand' to do his duty
faithfully, no matter who opposes !;
nerve to handle and control the rough
characters placed in his charge; dis
erection, to use and not abuse with tyr
amy or rashness the great power of
the office. That is the kind of a man
John Brown is and. that is the kind of
a man Allen county wants for sheriff.
