The circumstances of Mr.. Johnson

might have some weight with some
of the voters, but that in itself, with
out fitness and ability, would be no
reason why we should vote for him.
The fact that he is man of good
character and no question as to his
honesty and integrity, he having held
the office he is now seeking the past
two years and made an excellent rec
ord, proving his competency by con-
Quoting the same in such an impair
tial, courteous and prompt manner
that he gained the confidence Of all
who came in contact with him in his
official capacity. That is a valid rea-
son why he should receive the sup
port of all Republican voters. He
needs the Office and is worthy Of it.
