cupied a number of positions. That

evidenced by the fact that I was for
two years Deputy Sheriff of this
County, and during the past year
and half I have occupied the posi-
tion of Under Sheriff. My record
as an official and my personal stand
ing is open to all and will bear the

I hereby announce my candl-

ton for the Office of sheriff of
Bayfield, County to be voted up

is one of dignity and response

not only to enforce the laws, but
also by his daily conduct and
example to command respect for
the law.
