this, Judge Stone has placed himself
in a position to Judge fairly and i'm

Of century has made Carson his
home. During all OF this time he has
added friends to his record. as his
actions have been fair and fearless
With this as qualification, he asks
the voters to treat his as they have
at the past election. and he will give
them the same careful and Just ser
vice that ne has in the past.
Another point is that Judge Stone
