saying that he has lived in this
County for twenty two years and
he never asked the people for all
Office and yet he seems to blame
them for not having one, while so
many men have as ked the people
for IL job and have failed to secure
it, and yet bear the matter more
phI'isophlcally than my opponent
does. Apparently my friend be-
leves that those things should
be passed around to everyone
alike, at least once every twenty
two years. He also concludes by
saying that he was appointed to
this office by the Governor and
that he is qualified to fill the Of
fee. [ wonder if he believes
that a mere appointment to an
Office by the Governor is suffi-
Gent qualification, or does he be-
lieve that the law is such a shall
low affair that a man without any
previous experience whatever,
should be qualified and able to
deal and hand it out to whole
County without making even
slight mistake, or does he know
better but want the people to be-
licve merely what he says?
fail to agree with my oppo.
nent there. for [ have read and
practised law for the last sixteen
years and while it has been
somewhat on small scale,
have put in all my time at it and
| very often discover some mis-
takes that [ have made; not in
tentionally, but from the fact
that the law is so complicated
that even a. man who has quite
large experience in it will make
mistakes. This you will recog-
Mise from the fact that even
good many of our decisions from
Circuit Judges are reversed by
the Supreme Court and so on.
My opponent has also seen fit to
print statement in his own news
paper last week showing the econom~
zeal Way he conducted his Court and
the money he saved the County
while he was Judge of this Court for
one year. Under another head in
this issue will be found what this
Court has cost the County during
Mr.. Savage's Administration, Mr..
Trips and my own, and these
figures are taken from the dockets
Of the three Judges which are in nv
office and in nv possession.
Now, my friends, Ihave endeavor-
ed to explain wnere my opponent
stands on different things in this
matter, and the criticisms he has
made Or me and tried to show you
whore he has pointed at his virtues
and his qualifications, and l would |
not have burdened you with all this
stuff, had he not seen fit to attack |
me.
As to my own qualifications and |
virtues, | will not say anything !
about them, as most of the people of |
Bayfield, County know me; besides
being a poor hand at blowing nv
own trumpet, or speaking of my )
own virtues, and my faults l hardly I
ever mention
l would therefore conclude by say
ing that am a candidate for re-
election to the office of Municipal
Judge and if you think you should
have this Court conducted on the
same lines that it has been for the
last term, and that I should have
the office for second term, vote for
me.

Captain Harry Brewer predicts

crossed the wind was from the south.
It has been demonstrated by years
of observation that whatever way
the wind is blowing at the time the
san crosses the equator, that this
wind will be the prevailing one for
forty days. So the sun being from
the south Sunday evening indicates
that the prevailing wind for the
next forty days will be from the
