PERRY cLEMANs FOR
STATE AUDITOR


Perry Clemans, Of Hamilton, has aD
nomced his candidacy ior the Demo.
cratic nomination for state auditor an
will probably be the only Democratic
candidate for state office from the
Fourth District. He was nominated
for auditor by the Democrats last year
but was defeated by Auditor W. E.
Davis.
Clemans is cashier Of the First Ma
tional Bank IN Hamilton, Greenwood
county. He went to Greenwood from
Linn county 20 years ago, spent sew
eral years as a school teacher and
was twice elected county clerk 10 q
county which has a nominal majority
of 500 to 700. When Clemans enter
ed the campaign last year he was an
unknown quantity in in state politics
The Kansas politicians knew just as
little about Clemans as Clemanf
knew about the Kansas political
game. But before the close of the
fight the Democrat scouts were sing.
ing Clema1s' praise in the state head.
quarters.
The few things in which Clemans
is different from the average Kansas
politician commended him to the vot.
ers and made him strong. Somehow
Clemaus couldn't learn the trick Of
talking endless vaporings into the
ears of the voters and he didn t
know how TO straddIe or play the
finer points Of the political game. He
merely walked into the fight with
both eyes open and fought for all the
votes that we've loose. He went into
the fight but little known outside his
own county and closed the campaign
with a fighting following in every
county in the state. On election day
he gathered 24,SS6 more votes than
did Jonathan G. Miller, the Demo
cratic nominee for auditor in 1910;
and he reduced the Davis majority of
AZ, 152 in 1910 to 1918.
Next year Clemans expects to
begin his fight early and will visit al.
most every county in the state be-
fore the primaries.
With Clemans in the race for this
position next year, there is but lit
tie doubt Of how the people of Bar.
ton county will vote. The voters Of
this county were greatly impressed
with Mr.. Clemans during his cam
paign of a year ago from the fact
that instead of being finished poll
uiclan he was simply a plain business
man who talked to the people in a
plain business way and did not rely
on pulling political strings to secure
votes. Less politics and more busi.
ness is what the people are demand.
ing in their administrative affairs,
and that is what they will secure in
the election Of Perry Clemaus.
