JOHN REEVES
Candidate for County Clerk

In presenting my name to the voters of Faulkner county, Ark, for County and Probate Clerk, one of the highest offices within their gift, I do so, be- lieving that the time is ripe in our commonwealth for clean, progress sive young man to be elected, one that is free from the turmoil of personal political strife, one that is a candi- date for no faction or clique, one that is in favor of two terms and then step down, one that will favor the poor as we'll as the rich, one that will attend to the office and not use the office as a means to electioneer for another office, one that is opposed to political bosses, one that is opposed to life tenure in office, one that is op- posed to ring politics, and one that is qualified to fill the position if elected and not depend on the other fellow
 I was born and reared on farm near Conway, am the son of Henry Reeves, and grand son of Dr. J. J. Reeves, one of the pioneers of the county, for whom the settlement known as Reeves Schoolhouse was named. My father died when l was but 15, leaving me the oldest son in the family of 10 children making 1t a hard struggle for me to aid in edu- eating myself, brothers and sisters. However I have had nearly three years work in the State Normal, have had several years experience as book keeper and accountant, have taught school for the past four years, hold ing first grade license, therefore, l feel competent to fill the position II elected.
 have never before sought or held a public office, but, if elected, l pledge Faulkner county that the clerk office will not be a laboratory for experl- ment with political theories, but a systematic work house with open doors for rich and poor alike. l shall enter the office free from political en- tanglement, and Democracy en- nobled by achievement.-advt.
