Christian county ranks among the
wealthy counties of Kentucky with
taxable property amounting to more
than $4,000 900. A man to proper
ly assess this property should have a
general knowledge of all values of
farm lands, live stock and other
forms of personal property. The
county has had some good assessors
in the past of both political parties
and it has slsu had some with but
little if any fitness for the important
position they found themselves in.
1t is a pleasure to state that the
Democratic nominee for assessor is
a young man who will undoubtedly
make a conscientious aud efficient
officer. He is intelligent, energetic.
reliable and capable. He is without
experience as an Office holder and
will bring to the position new, clean
and up-to date methods, with no
faint of machine politics and ring
rules. This exceptionally strong
and popular young man is Lucian j.
Harris, Jr.. of the East's School
House district. northwest of the
city. He is a son of DR.. L. J. Har
ris, one of the most prominent Con
federate Veterans of the county and
a leading physician. He is serving
his second term of four yearslas the
member of the Democratic County
Committee from his district. An
earnest, straightforward deserving
young man. his character and quail
fications appeal not only to voters
of his own party, but to those of
other parties as well. Vote for him
and you will never regret it.
