To the Voters Of Ellis County.

10 the voters OF EIlI8 GOuntYs
Did it ever occur to you that the Of
flee of Probate Judge is Judicial of
fee? That some of the most intricate
and difficult questions Of law come be-
fore it for judicial determination, that
the value of the property which psses
through this court annually is many
times greater than the amount of pro-
perty which passes through the district
court, that the Probate Judge OF your
county is the General Guardian Of all
Minor Orphan Children, Lunatcs, I'm
beetle, Insane and Feeble Minded per-
sons. and has general care, custody
and control of their property; that it
has the appointment of all Guardians
and Administrators and admits or re-
jects the annual settlements and final
report of such Guardians and Admin
istrators; that it is by Statute made
The Juvenile Court, before which all
dependent, neglected and delinquent
children under the age of sixteen years
are tried; that it has the appointment
of the Probation Officer or Officers of
your county; that it has original con-
current jurisdiction with the District
Supreme Court of the State of Kansas
in habeas corpus proceedings; that all
wills are admitted or rejected proba
ton in this court, the Judge thereof
passing upon the sufficiency and COM
potency of the evidence in regard to
the execution of the same; that it is
open and transacts business every day
in the year except Sunday; in short it
is by far the most important Office in the
county, an Office which in our judgment
should be filled by a person possessed
of some legal experience and training
before entering upon the discharge of
the duties of the Office; that it is s
matter OF great Importance to you to
make no mistake in selecting your can
didate to fill this important Office, one
that will bring an improvement to the
Office and insure TO the people of tna
county the best services.
To those it has not been our pleasure
TO meet in this campaign we will kindly
ask your support.
If elected to this important office of
confidence and trust, we shall enter up
on the discharge OF our duties, feeling
that we are equal to the Importance OF
the occasion and that it will be IN
necessary to educate US at the expense
of the tax payers of the county.
In conclusion we will say that we
shall be very grateful for your support
