D. [. King for Circuit Judge

MIR. King is one of the best law
yers in the circuit, and is we'll suited
for the position to which he aspires.
lie has been very successful in the
practice OF law which he has been
following for many years, and has
been overruled IN the Supreme
court probably as few times as any
attorney in the state, who has had
as many cases taken up as he.
lie has been repeatedly bonored
10y the people Of this county and has
never betrayed the trust imposed
upon him. As state Senator from
this district he won a great deal OF
prominence by his work in that
body. in which he was one of the
leaders. lie made the race in 1910
for the position which he now seeks,
against Judge j. w. Meeks, the
pre-. ent incumbent. vino is very pop
ular in the circuit, and the votes he
received in that election Indicate
very clearly tho high standing of
Mr.. King IN the circuit. In that
campaign Mr.. King was a late entry
in the race aud did not canvass the
circuit as thoroughly as he would
liked to have, still he was defeated
by a margin Of II votes by Mr.
Mecks, the successful man. In the
three counties where the candidates
lived, Mr.. King had a plurality of
277 votes over one Of the candi-
dates, and so7 votes over the other
and ran second to Meeks in the 9th
er two counties of the circuit.
There is not a man IN this part Of
the state who has done more Faith
ful service for the Democratic party
than has Dave King. Whether in
or out of office, he has always given
literally TO his time and efforts,
without pay, to the furtherance OF
the party interests.
As a private citizen or public OF
fetal, he IS known by our people,
and they are willing to express their
approval of mis- record as such,
whether at the polls or In prison.

looks as if the Washington Senators
were in line to take second honors in

all depends upon Johnson. With him

Griffith would have To be content with
second division berth.
Last ear Johnson worked in AZ
games, or almost one-third of the
total played by the Senators. He was
on the firing line in 346 innings. more
than any other pitcher in the Ameri-
