The attention of the voters of this county is called to the candidacy of Judge w. F. Wilkinson for state audi tor. Judge Wilkinson served his county for two terms as judge of pro- bate, and since that time has given a great portion of his time to the study of the revenue laws of the state, and has kept up with the rulings of the courts where they affected these laws. We believe the head of this depart ment ought to be able to construe these laws, that he can render to the people of this state the greatest help in handling the states revenue.
 The auditors office is the revenue department of the state, and the in- auguration of the auditor will be at a critical time, the legislature will be assembled, and new governor, and this body will demand statements of the states finances, and the cooperation of the auditor in framing new revenue laws. Judge Wilkinson is capable of rendering this service.
 The best test of a mans fitness for any office Is the opinion held of him by those with whom he comes in con tact, and in our own county it's officers have more business to transact with the state auditor than anyone else, who make their annual and monthly settlements with the state through this office. The indorsement given Judge Wilkinson's candidacy by our county officials is given below, so that the voters of Jefferson can see the es- innate placed upon Judge Willinson's ability by the men and all others in this county who are in a position to judge him.
 Birmingham, Ala, March, 1914. This is to certify that we are per sonally acquainted with Judge w. F. Wilkinson, know him to be qualified in every particular to fill with credit to himself and to the satisfaction of the people of the state, the important office he seeks, and we commend him to all our friends as worthy of their support.
