q. B. GREER.

1t goes without saying that @.
B. Greer has made us a splendid
Trustee, and that the finances of
the county were never in better
condition nor in safer, ablerhands
Mr.. Greer is too well known to
need an introduction from us, and
no man stands higher in the conf
dence and esteem of the people.
In every walk Of life the record
of Mr.. Greer will bear the closest
scrutiny. AS public official, as a
Christian, as high minded. cour-
teous citizen and gentleman, his
life is without reproach, and his
Democracy is unquestioned.
With such record he goes be-
fore the people asking an endorse
ment for a second term, and is
making the race without opposi-
ton. His announcement will be
found in this issue of The CHRoN-
IoLE, and we point to his record to
emphasize the fact that the public
favor has been we'll bestowed, and
that there can be no mistake in it's
continuance.
