CAPTAIN HANDY Is
OUT FOR SHERIFF
ISSUES STATEMENT TO THE
VOTERS OF JEFFERSON COUNTY
IN WHICH HE SETS FORTH HIS
PLATFORM.

To the voters of Jefferson county:
In offering myself as a candidate for
the office of sheriff of Jefferson county,
l think it nothing but right that | should
declare my platform and let the people
know how | stand upon the questions
that must necessarily confront the ex-
ecutive officer of this county.
First and foremost, | hold that the
execution of law and order so far as
the sheriff can execute 1t. must and shail
be done. There can be no enjoyment of
life. liberty and the pursuit of happiness,
as guaranteed under our constitution and
laws. without the observance of law and
order and the enforcement thereof, and
IL elected / shall use every endeaver
within my power to bring 1t about with
out fear or favor.
The humblest and the greatest alike
must be protected and made to feel safe
and secure under the laws of our land.
There can be no enjoyment OF our legal
constitutional rights without that feeling
of safety that is guaranteed to us. The
sheriff is the chief executive officer Of the
county and responsible in a large measure
for the execution of the law and protee-
ing life and property. I will If elect
ed assume the responsibilities and bur
dens of the office, knowing full we'll what
these burdens are, with the full determi-
nation to carry out the law without fear
or favor to anyone.
Second-I propose II elected, to employ
lot Of good deputies. well mounted, tc
pay them well and to feed their horses.
I will not myself. nor shall any deputy
sheriff in my employ, ever receive any
reward for the capture OF any criminal
The idea prevalent among some executive
officers that they must lay back oil
wait for a reward for the capture OF 6
criminal is not productive Of law ant
order in any community, ard should n
be countenanced Frequently desperate
criminals go unwhipped Of justice, eithei
en- account of slow, tardy and underpait
officers. or because of the desire to real
a rich reward Such conduct Is repre-
hensible and II is therefore my intention
| TO refuse all rewards. both for myself ant
! NV deputies, to employ good men, pa,
| them we'll and exact good service from
| them.
Upon the foregoing platform I plac'
myself before the people. as candidate
| for the office of sheriff Of Jefferson coun
| ty. subject to the action Of the demo
| cratic marty. Yours truly,
| sss JOHN d. HANDY.

OBJECT TO REFORMS.
Is Rumored That Prominent Russians
VIII Resign Positions.

st. Petersburg, December 10.-As re-
suit of the usual attempts of Grand
Duke sergius. uncle of the emperor and
encouragement Of Moscow. and M. Mu-
ravieff the minister of justice, to block
the liberal movement both are reported
to have resigned. According to the story
Grand Duke Sergius advised the EN-
peror not to concede anything and told
him he must choose between him and
Interior Minister Svlatopolk-M irsky.
Therefore when the emperor indicated
his purpose to support Prince Sviatoplk-
Mirsky, the grand duke rendered his res
ignation. Muravieffs retirement, which
will be preceded by the usual leave of
absence abroad, is directly connected with
the movement for reform of the exist
ing laws.
