many of Madison county's most promi-
nent citizens and mature consideration

sented to become candidate and the
next jailer of Madison county, sublecL TO

the people, as he is well and favorably
known TO every man, woman and child
in the county. He was born on a farm
80 years ago and has been a farmer all
of his life. He is a member Of the old
est and most influential families in the
county, both by birth and marriage.
Likewise, he is worthy and ster ing

a conservative business man, yet active

didate in the democratic primary for
sheriff of Madison county. He had very
strong opposition, some of the most
prominent men, Oldest and most influen-
tial political workers being lined up
against him. But in the race, he came
in on the home stretch an easy winner
against the field. This was one of the
marvels of Madison county's political
history. He had a wiilk-over in the fin
al election. and on January l, 1910. he
was sworn in as sheriff and since that
time his ofiice-has been conducted on a
high plane. He has been obliging, po-
lite and efficient lie has made splen

with justice and impartiality. The peo-
pie can congratulate themselves upon
the splendid record he has made as their
highest presiding peace officer. He has
never betrayed the confidence of the
people, and the people viii surely not
relinguish their hold upon such a valued
public servant.
