Mr.. Main believes that prosecut-
ing attorney should enforce the laws
as they are found on the statute books
regardless of what that officer may
think about the propriety Of the law.
He will, if elected, treat all persons
fairly and will not permit cases to
be prosecuted when there are no good
grounds for prosecutions nor will he
refuse to prosecute cases where there
are good grounds for prosecution. He
will not let personal feeling play a
part in the conduct of his office. 1t
will be his purpose to conduct his
office economically and will not file
large number of cases simply fol-
the fees to be secured by doing So
The Herald does not hesitate to
recommend Mr.. Main to the people of
this judicial district. His every day
life is book open to all and not
one word can be said against his
character. All voters should look well
into the merit of his claims for the
office.
