il a strong one. II Is particularly
strong this year. People who believe In

can do better by so doing, have no excuse
for scratching a Republican ticket this

fee Of county clerk has been in the hands
of Mr.. Connaway for one term. 1t 10 one

better condition than 1t is at present, and
Ford county will never have better Of
ficer than Mr.. Gonna way has been. Dur
ing the past term 1t has been apleasure
for the people Of the county to transact
business In this office, because Mr.. Gonna
wap has exerted himself to serve every
person who has had business with the Of

Sid Reynolds.

Perhaps no man In Ford county has,
either as an officer or as private citizen,
shown more willingness to do things to
accommodate people In Ford county, than
Sid Reynolds 1t comes easy to him,
because he believes In the people Of this
county. There is streak Of the kind of
patriotism Ia Sid Reynolds, that makes
him believe that the people of bis own
county are the best people on earth, and
it Is a good kind of patriotism. He likes
the people and shows it 10 his daily life.
AS a county officer this quality makes
him many friends. 1t was a pleasure to
transact business with the office with Mr..
Reynolds In charge. Added to the
quality OF pleasing people Mr.. Reynolds
has the ability a0d the character to be
desired In public officer. He Is asking
for an important Office in Ford county,
the Office of County Treasurer. The very
fact Of the importance Of the Office ought
to be strong argument for Mr.. Rey.
nold's candidacy. He Is cafe man for
the place, and competent man and be
will without doubt be the next County
Treasurer Of Ford county.

They are almost tie on good looks, but
the Republicans have the best Of 1t on
weight, as their candidate has always
given Mr. Crane the worst of 1t in taking
on fat. 1t NAV be said to the credit of
both candidates that their nominations
we're a straight out case OF the office
seeking the man, as neither asked for the
honor. Mr.. Smith has knowledge of
civil engineering and would fill the office
aoceptably, if elected. IL is understood
that each of these candidates will vote for

loyal TO the man that they most certa nly
drafted, Mr.. Smith will be elected In
spite of bis vote 10 the contrary.

There are many matters Of great impor-

isnot man in the county who weuld be
afraid to trust Judge Preston in his own,
or in public affairs. For his first term he
carried the county by majority of $50
