profession since being admitted TO the
Bar. a personal acquaintance with
him will inspire the same confidence
and respect of all voters of the county.
While Mr.. Brown is 80 years of age
and always been q republican,, he has
never held an office, and for that reason
has not come In contact with as many
men in different parts of his county as
his opponents; but the above endorse
ment is a sufficient guarantee TO those
who do not know him personally, that
he is well fitted for the position Of
Prosecuting Attorney, and justly en-
titled To the support of the republican
voters at the Primaries September lst.
In the contest between the present
incumbents of this Oili"c, il is claimed
- 4 81. l. hot IT,
Moore has held the Office two terms,
which is as long as it has been held by
any person, and that he should retire;
while on the other hand, Mr. MoOre's
friends are insisting that Mr.. George
has been in Office practically ever since
he has been of age, and that he Is hard
ly qualified by age or experience to I'LL
this important position.
4 great many voters in the county
who have been investigating the mat
ter are inclined TO believe that the
friends of both are correct in their con-
illusions, and the consensus of opinion
is at this time that Fred b. Brown is
the logical candidate.
He has the age, experience and sound
judgment required to protect the tax
PAYERS i'm the expenditure of from
twenty to thirty thousand dollars,
which is yearly expended in criminal
affairs. He also has the ability and ex-
perience as a lawyer to ably protect all
cases which should be prosecuted.
If nominated, it will be by the votes
of the people; and he will be in a posi-
ton without fear or favor to impartial
ly, fearlessly and conscientiously dis
charge the duties of this Office. We
unhesitatingly and cheerfully recon-
mend to the voters Mr.. Browns candi-
dacy, believing that he will make one
of the best Prosecuting Attorneys If
nominated and elected that the county
has ever had
