the son OF L. 7. Carnallan, o

laboring on the farm, and by hi

a successful and influential man
equipped with broad education
and We believe there is no man II
the district possessing better
qualifications than he for repre-.
senting the district in the Mis-.

Here In Carter county, where
Mr.. Carnahan has long been
identified with many OF the lead :
ing business interests, he is well
like'i and will have practically
the undivided and whole. hearted
support OF the Democratic yoters.
He is q very sociable gentleman,
of pleasing personality, q good
mixer, and is quite popular in
adjoining counties Of the district.
He % also well known to the De-
mocracy Of THE county, having
served three terms as Circuit
Clerk and Recorder, receiving
the nomination for recollection
two terms without opposition, and
IS now filing his first term as
Prosecuting Attorney. He also,
served two terms as School Conn
missioner, several years ago.
His long service as q public Off
cial in this county has met with
the hearty approval OF his con-
stituents and. too. his official rsc. J.
ord is without blot or blemish.
Another indication Of his popn-
larity IN his home county evi.

nomination, hts candidacy hav-
