Simple Justice.

In Justice to myself n d
friends; l am compelled to deny
the statement published in The
Falls City News of last week to
the effect, that I should have
said, that | never did or never
would vote for a democrat.
Some people seem to think
that anything is fair during a
little campaign like this; the
same us anything is fair in love
and war, but beg leave to take
exception to this proposition,
and am frank to admit, that if |
cannot be elected without max
ing false statement of saying
a harsh word about one or my
opponents or any one else; |
will gladly accept defeat.
want the good people of our
city to know that | have no
friends to reward or enemies to
punish either before or after
this election. My motto shall
continue as IT always has been;
Justice, kindness and good will
toward all, both rich and poor
alike.
If the voters desire such d
man as this to manage the af-
fairs OF their city for one year,
and handle your money the
same as a good business man
handles his own; | assure you
kind friend; your support will
be appreciated, and | will con-
duct the affairs of your city in
such a business like way that
at the close of my term you can
say, that there is one man who
has kept every promise, and
done more for our city than we
expected. With kindest regards
| beg to remain,
Respectfully Yours,
