scope there is very much TO interest
him in the heavens. Due south he will
at once notice the Scorpione whose
principal star Antares, even 10 the
naked eve, is seen TO be much redder
than the blue star Vega above IT. And
between these he cannot fail to notice
the wonderfully complicated structure
of the milky way, how the innumer-
able suns of which it is composed are
here gathered into great clouds and
streams by forces of whose nature we
have no conception.
Above Vega there shines out the

To the voters Of Sumter County:

To the voters Of Sumter County:
Owing to the fact that the office Of
Auditor will be vacant and that the
citizens Of this County are to name
someone to fill this position 1 hereby
announce my candidacy for the
same, subject to the rules of the
Democratic primary.
This Is one of the most important
positions in the county and the fin
ancial condition Of our county de-
pends largely on the safe and thor
ough manner in which this office Is
conducted.
l do not believe i exceed the
modesty that becomes us all when 7
say that I feel assured that I can and
will fill the office acceptably If elect
ed.
My years Of experience as an ac-
countant will enable me to SO conduct
the office as 20 prove prostab's to
the county and a pleasure and pride
to myself.
L am before the voters solely on
my ability to fill the position and do
not want any man to vote for M
unless he believes ! am able to nc.
ceptably fill the place.
While / realize that some will vote
against me because of the following
declarations. yet the voters have a
right to know how l will run the
office If elected. AS to the clerical
work. shall use the same care and
business method, that I have always
used In other business. As to re-
turns l wish to say that 1 will not
rest until every particle of taxable
property and every taxable Doll is
on the tax list. There Is class Of
tax dodgers that infest our country.
They come into our town and coun-
" cross roads every fall with, Il
stock of goods and come IN compe-
tltion with our merchants who are
taxed year by year and when the
money season is over these wander
ing merchants fold their tents and
quietly steal away, leaving the bur-
oens or taxation on our land owners
II L become Auditor these same gem
tlemen will have to walk up to the
treasurer's office and pay their part
dodgers is the man who owns no
property but should pay his poll tax.
Sumter should get five or six thous-
and dollars year that 1t does not
get from this source and I promise
that If elected I will make it hot for
him. Another species is the negro
tenant who owns COW, mule and
some other personal property and he
Is continually jumping from town
ship to township and never paws one
penny of tax. If l become Auditor
he Will certainly contribute his mite
towards the government.
| can only say that if elected
snail use all my brain and energy
for the best interest of my county.
In conclusion | wish to say that if
you see fit TO support me / will ap
preciate the same and strive with all
my might to deserve your condolences:
but your first duty is to your county
and | only wish you to do to me as I
always strive to do to others. that is
study the matter we'll, weigh each
candidate and then vote for the man
"hom you honestly believe is the
most competent.
thanking you for whatever YOU
may see lit to do for me l beg to be.
Your fellow citizen.
=. Ct. BOWMAN.
