Campaign Chairman,
Issues Statement

To the Citizens and Voters of Knox
County -
The Republicans have made q
fair, and honorable campaign, and
have + resented the facts to the peO-
pie, We have u ticket made up of
Republicans, who are honest and
honorable men, and who will give
to Knox county, as ! believe one of
the best Administration il has ever
had. The Republican party is in
favor of good roads, and in favor Of
progress all along the line. But in
this connection the Republican Par
ty also stands for honesty and econ
omy in the administration of the
affairs of the county. Judging from
the records published in this paper,
there appears to have been o waste
full, extravaganza and disregard for
the law, In the present administra-
ton. Judge Sampson left u full
Treasury, and there has come into
Judge Stamper's hands in four
year something like $50. 10000 in tax
es, and the county is now thousands
of dollars in debt, so that i'm all
Judge Stamper has expended, and
used something like 500, 200 90, and
while there has been some work
done on the roads, the complaint
that the people have, is that much
more should .have been done than
has been done, and we pledge the
people that if Squire Hammons and
the Republican Ticket is elected,
that more roads and better
roads will be built, than has
been built, and that the peoples
taxes will be reduced, and that the
affairs of the county will be con-
Quoted on an economical basis and
according to law. The Republican
Party seems to be in fine shape, and
If the Republicans will do their dn-
ty, each and avery candidate of tn e
Republican Ticket will be elected
by u large majority. We want ev-
cry republican and citizen to be on
their guard, and to see that his
neighbor goes to the polls and votes,
and see that the candidates live up
to the affidavit made by them.

A CAMPAIGN LIE

ty for printing or advertising was
presented at the regular term OF
the Knox Fiscal courts and there
passed upon and allowed by that
court while presided over by
Judge Stamper.
One statement | want to here
denounce as a lie is that which
saws that when the ballots had
been printed for the last primary
election that there were ne e.
lection certificates included with
each ballot book whereby the e.
lection officers could certify to
the vote and that these were
left out of the election. The
Mountain Advocate took the con-
tract for the printing of the bal
lots and not having u job press
big enough to print such a ballot
on took the copy to, Louisville
and employed the Standard
Printing Co. to print them COM
plete. furnishing that was neces-
sary and acceptable to the Clerk
of Knox County. The underssgn-

precients. and did not know that
they were omitted, and proba bly,

| understand the law the County
Judge CANNOT ALLOW ANY CLAIMS
,EXCEPT IN AN EMERGENCY, ana
then he cannot allow any CLAIM
THAT EXCEEDS 5000. | expect To
n ave these claims allowed accord
ing TO law, and to require persons
holding claims to present them To
the Fiscal Court, which is composed
Of the County Judge and the Mag
istrates, and to have the advice and
the assistance of the magistrates in
passing upon these claims. The
County Judge is the Chief officer
of the counts, and he should con-
duet his office and the affairs of the
County according to the Law. If
the voters will observe the financial
statement published byJudge SIAM
per for 1911, they will find that
Judge Stamper allowed nearly Sll,-
10000 in claims, himself, and with
out giving the magistrates an oppor-
tunity to pass on these claims. The
Emergency claims amounted to
very little, and Judge Stamper had
no right TO allow any others, him
self. He allowed nearly s6,0OO.00 in
claims that ranged above 5000 and
$4,000, and this was in open viola
