Humphrey IS recognized throughout the
county as an energetic, competent and
honest lzsn. His long service as Jus

TO escape serious burns and to ex,lng1ish
the flames with water.

this style: The public record OF IiOnal
Webster. who has the gall TO ask the
people 10 place him in the position CT
attorney general shows him 10 be utterly
unit for the place, lie has neither
ability nor the first qualification for the
position.
