Fine rains fell the latter part
of the week. The dry situation
was becoming serious with the
farmers. Small grain and grass
were fast damaging, but with the
abundant rainfall much will be
regained that before was thought
to have been lost. Corn, which
is pretty much all planted, is
coming up nicely aud will now
grow surprisingly if the weather
will properly warm up.

ANNOUNCEMENT.
Stanton, KY, May 10, 1913.
Editor of Clay City Times,

EdltOr OF Clay Olly lines,
Sir:
You Will through the columns
of the Times say to the good
people of Powell county that |
am Il candidate for re election to
the Office of County Attorney,
subject to the action of the Dem
0crats at a Primary to be held on
the 1st Saturday IN August, 1913.
There are, none, as yet, to my
knowledge, who want to GUST me
of my office. For that feel very
grateful, and i do hope that no,
one will want to antagonize me
for this my second term, as it is
always customary to give to the
trusty servant a second term. |
don't know just how | have
pleased the people in the dis
charge of my past duties as your
attorney, but. do know that |
have done everything in my
power for the benefit and up
building of our county; to pay its
debts, to decrease taxation; to
build and maintain a better sys-
TEN of public rO IDS; to fight
graft; to suppress crime and to
maintain the dignity of the law.
/ hope to have chance before
this election closes, to address the
people of the county in each vot-
ing precinct and give to them my
experience in county affairs, and
to place before them a plan by
which our county will not remain
in the list of pauper counties,
but will lift high its head, its
credit, and its fair name, and
place it in the rank with counties
to which it properly belongs.
And to do this let me implore of
you to select and elect competent
men from Justice of the Peace to
your County Judge. A man be-
cause he Is a clever man is not a
qualification for an officer. Com
petent means ability, will-power,
nerve, push, energy, sobriety and
honesty. Get this class of men
for your officers and l will assure
you a prosperous county. Iwish
| had space to say more, but
thanking you for your past infu
ence and support, again be.
seech YOU to stand by me IN this
my last effort to be your County
Attorney, beli~ing as l do, that
my past experience has eplight.
ened me to do more good for the
county in the future than | have
in the past. Realizing that |
submit my claims to trustwor-
thy people, believing that they
have confidence in me that | will
stand by them and never forsake
them or their cause until We
build this our county upon lev
ell financially and morally with
our neighbOring counties.
Under the law no candidate
has the right to spend money or
other things to influence voters
to vote for them, or to bring IA
bout any undue influence to make
a voter vote contrary to his God
given right of purpose. | will
not violate this law, and will to
the best of my ability stand by
this law and prosecute any and
all offenders, so help me God.
am your servant, and most
respectfully ask all lovers of the
land to vote for me.
