Oakley G. Jordan is a candidate for
re election to the office of marshal of
the city Of Lexington, and submits bis
name to the consideration OF the voters
in the ensuing municipal primaries.
Mr.. Jordan has held the position for
two terms and has made most credit
able record. He is temperamenially
we'll suited for a police officer. being
quiet and unruffied. not in the least
irritable or irascible. When he finds
it necessary to make an arrest he does
so quietly and does not publish the
fact from Dan to Beersheba. He is
held in fear by all of lawbreaking
procliyities for his resolutene3s and
absolute fearlessness. Among the du-
ties of the city marshal is to serve as
street commissioner. and all will readi-
ly admit that the streets of Lexington
are now in better shape than ever be-
fore in the history of the municipality.
As a tax collector Mr.. Jordan has also
made pre- eminently good-in fact his
record in all the departments of his
office is one to be proud of AMI will bear
the closest scrutiny.
