advice for the incoming county oHI-
to consider.
Our advice to the county officers
needing deputies is to appoint thoes
persons deputies who are by nature AMI
experience best fitted to nn the du-
ties Of the places to which they are
appointed.
The people who vote chose the or
GERS who are elected because they
had perfect confidence 10 their abii-
ity to run the offices to which they
are elected.
Straight party tickets aid not ele1sI
any people TO Office. The successful
ones were not elected because they
belonged to any party or faction.
The people will not hold any part,
or faction responsible for the proper
conduct OF any of the offices in the
court house. They will hold respon-
sfble only the persons Who were
elected TO office.
And the success or failure of an
officer win depend more or less on
the deputies Who are APPOINTED.
So the logical conclusion is II a1
county official wants to gise the
best service possible to the county
he will choose the deputies he thinks
best fitted-not necessarily the ones
who succeeded in getting the most
endorsements from organization or
faction men.
