As Center District has not had
a sheriff since the days of John
w. Bell, and the north end of
this county has not had a County
since the late Robert Means was
member of the County court, and
the voters have become indig-
nant at one faction controlling
this county, and if there is not
something done to prevent the
kicking of every young man that
asks for Office, the Democratic
party will meet its Waterloo.
So here goes my suggestion:
Give us A. II. Jackson for Sher-
if, Bruce Terrell for Prosecuting
Attorney, and distribute the 9TH
. er Offices over the county. Re
member it will not work to try
to force the favored ones on the
I people TOO long.
Remember the fate Of II. G..
woodward two years ago fail
warning to the favored ones.
The others who have been sug
gested are all good men in every
respect. But have they not haC
enough at the hands of the vo.
ters.
Now we suggest that we nom
mate a good, clean ticket, will
good clean men, and we will hav,
a good victory. Otherwise
cannotsay.
