SEES large Lynden Audience

Hon. E. G Mills, of Seattle. Pro-

b. Sampley, John Aitken, and r. G..
Wewetzer.
Clear, incisive and patriotic. the
address of Mr.. Mills was heartily
applauded and won for him the ad-
miration of the large audience. His
intelligent and clear presentation OF
the commendable measures promised
by the Progressive party, and his
fearless denunciation of the wrongs
inflicted upon the public by the pre-
sent order of things won for him
and his party the approval of all
intelligent citizens who had the
pleasure of hearing him.
Mr.. Mills fully demonstrated that
he has not been wasting his time
while engaged in public service as
state senator of Wisconsin and as
United States Government attorney,
which position he held for eight
years, resigning to come to the state
of Washington. to resume the prac-
tice of his profession, that of law.
He has carefully and conscientiously
studied the important public issues
of the day, and is well equipped for
the position to which he aspires.

and personal ambition and pride TO
become Judge OF Probate of Van Buren,

OF my candidacy for this honorable and
dignfied office.
A certain degree OF reluctance sur
rounds my announcement IN this re-
spect. The primary law, while it is ab-
solutely right 10 spirit, is weak In re-
gard to the possibility Of campaign
abuses and does not sufficiently safe
guard the purity Of primary elections.
The lavish and indiscrninate use of
money 10 campaign is travesty on
decency. No public Office should be
subject to barter. 1t should not be
sold to the highest bidder
hereby pledge to the people Of Van
Buren, county:
That the week before the primary
election ia August 1912, | will file with
the county clerk sworn, itemlzed
statement showing all sums paid, and
all sums promised to be paid, in my
campaign to date and that | vii, cause
the same to be published in newspaper
of the county, 10 the issue before such
eectiop and further, that on or before
five days following the aforesaid cleo
ton | will file my final statement show
ing total campaign expenses paid, or
promised to be paid, and will publish
same iu like manner as first statement
shall be filed and published.
The law does not require that this be
done, but the people are entitled to
know all conditions and particulars sur
rounding the campaign.
The probate office carries a reason
ably good salary and if nominated and
elected to this important office, pledge
NY entire time and attention to the
duties appertaining thereto.
Believing that | can satisfactorily
discharge the duties of this office | most
earnestly and respectfully solicit your
support at the primary on August 81,
1912 w. G.. MosIER.
