A LETTER
From ". A Osborn to the Rpub.
Ii.an Voters of Lawrence Co.

MY DEAR SIRS:
My needs, more than my desire to
mingle in politics, have prompted me
to appeal to you in the coming cam
paign. Weak as my poor efforts hayt
hoen, have always tried to stand
for the right. For this deserve 10th,
ing more than that accorded to ev-
cry honest man.
The office Of County Clerk is a
gift with the people, and were l
able to take up an occupation that
would in any way promise q fair live
!ihood, / am sure that / would not
think of contending for this office,
and would leave it to some one Of
my worthy opponents.
| If you believe that my strength
Of position would insure victory in
November, and If you believe that
my standing as man would war
rant your support in the coming pri-
mary, / can assure you that no one
would appreciate 1t more than /.
The aid that l am asking from
you cannot impoverish you in the
least, but may very materially en-
bance my prospects for the future.
/ have but lately started out In
life to maintain and provide for \
home that l may call my own, and
/ do not believe that ! am asking
too much Of my friends when I
ask them to give me chance.
Both of my opponents have q
good start in life, and are able
te cope with the duties and respon-
sibilities of life in any line. With
me It is somewhat different. Nature
has seen cause to limit my action
In the field Of labor and the various
avenues Of success are limited to a
great extent. Fate has deprived me
OF many Of the opportunities and
advantages which they enjoy.
l only ask you for your vote and
the weight os your influence, and
] trust that am not asking for
more than you can give. would
be glad to see each voter In person
before the primary comes off, but the
time is too short and 1t is impossI-
bic to do so. You herein have my
wishes and / trust you to consider
them just the same. Vote for the
one you belive would be successful
In the final contest. If l am not
that man then ! do not ask or ex-
pect your support. l now leave It
sll to you, and remain
Very Truly Yours.
/ A. w. OSBORN.

A company this week leased the
lands on Wilson Creek to drill for
oil. The lease requires well to be
completed within six months or the
lease will be forfeited. This means
that the town of Wayne will have
either oil or gas in short while,
as experts who have gone over the lei
ritory are free to express themselves
as being confident of success in this
field.
The Lincoln Oil Company has start
cd to drill again on the ridge at the
head of sycamore. Another test WE'LL
will be drilled in the head of Rich
Creek. The prospects for large field
Of oil and gas in that vicinity is SO
flattering that this company will con-
tinue to make tests. They have al
ready drilled five wells, in two they
have found oil in paying quantities
and in three wells large flow Of

number of horses, cows sheep, and
