10 the Voters of Caldwell Par
ish:
You, nc doubt have heard it
said that1 will be candidate
for Assessor of State and Parish
Taxes in and for the Parish of
Caldwell at the primary election
which will be held some time in
the month of January 1916.
However, if you have not heard
such news, this is to inform you
that | will be a candidate fer
that office, and | will make an
effort to see every voter in the
parish before the primary comes
off and lay my claims before
you. In the meantime hope
you will consider this an individ
ual solicitation for your support,
and that you will not commit
yourself to any other candidate
until you have given me an cp-
portunity to be heard.
My announcement will ap-
pear later.
Yours faithfully,
REM II MILLER

To the People
Special to The Waterman:

Special to The Waterman:
Through your valuable paper,
Il wish to express my sincere
thanks to the people of Caldwell
parish for their liberal support
in the recent election for the
convention in which | was a can
didate for a member thereto, al
SO, for their many courtesies
and hospitality shown me dur
ing my candidacy.
| wish to state to the voters
that the article which appeared
in The Waterman was an injus-
tice to me, also to you as voters
and was only calculated to mis-
lead you and thereby defeat the
wishes of the people as there
was nothing real in the article.
The law to which the author re-
fers only applies to a primary
election and does not have ref
erence to a general election as
suggested by the article in ques-
ton.
As many, if not all, voters
know, made clean and open
campaign for votes without seek
ing any advantage or saying
anything that was unjust to my
opponent or his friends. Had it
fallen to my lot to represent the
people of Caldwell at the pro-
posed convention, | should have
done so without hope of reward
or fear of punishment as my
past record will teach you is
true. wish to call your atten-
ton to the fact that the
writer of the article which ap-
peared in The Waterman studi-
ously avoided signing his name
thereto, knowing, as he did,
that his signature would detract
much from the results of his ar
ticle, as the people know him in
the capacity of a political trick
ster and has heretofore stood
very high as man, an officer
and a politician is now a politi-
cal corpse. Mr.. Voter, | think
it is time to turn deaf ear to
the calls of such political trick
sters and render our support to
men who have our interes. at
heart.
Again thanking you for your
liberal support,
am very sincerely
P. w. CARR.
