man who has proven his ability to
assist in successfully managing the
affairs of Sullivan county. He was
born and reared in this county, his
interests are here, he is a large tax

the administration of the affairs Of
the Office.
Mr.. Bennett Is Il successful farmer
aud lumbrrman. BY hard labor
and progressive methods he has
made farming a financial success.
His land is well cultivated and very
productive and his buildings are
always kept neat and attractive.
His farm, although not large, is a
model in every respect and its pro
ductiveness, condition and appear
anee bear testimony that the owner
is both capable aud industrious.
Some years ago Mr.. Bennett be-
came associated with Mr. Fred Peale

ness. The firm has been conspicuous
ly successfully. Their business ha-
been large and Mr.. Bennett has had
such experience in this connection
as would make him peculiarly we'll

We recently heard a man who has
worked in the lumber woods in this

years say that the firm of which
Boyd p. Bennett is Il member alway
paid their men the highest wages,
paid them promptly and treated them
the best of any lumbermen he had

he had been lifelong Democrat, he
should vote for Mr.. Bennett for

Mr.. Bennett possesses every re-

he will bring to the office superior
