Broadbent's Position

Considerable pressure has
been brought to bear on me to
make a public statement Of my
position OH the county fair, in
view Of the fact that my oppon-
ent has made the emphatic state
ment that Is, and always has
been, opposed to the county buy
ing it.
As this matter is before the
present board OF county commits
sioners with ample time to set
tie it either before or after cleo
ton l certainly do not feel call
ed upon to give an expression as
the price Of votes. There are
so many things of Importance
desired by some interests and op-
posed by others on which I could
promise certain interests this
and others something else.
However, 1 am free to say and
here make the GENERAL PRO-
MISE that, IL elected, will give
the best that is in mo in the in
terest of the whole of Crowley
county in economy and n clean
county government. As an EN-
ployc of the people I can be ap-
preached on their affairs at all
times, and will consult with all
persons interested in any matter
of Importance which may come
up.
While I very much desire to be
elected to the Office for which 1
am asking, yet 1 would rather
lose than to go in bound hand
and foot by prediction pro-
misses. 1 have been asked to say
what l would do. about many
things other than the fair as the
price OF votes and support, and
at times the pressure of the big
club was very thinly veiled, to all
Of which 1 have said, and now
say, 1 will not enter office at the
sacrifice of my self-respect, or
without tho freedom to use my
best judgment on each problem
as and when 1t presents itself.
With this brief statement Of
my position l will leave the de-
cisiOn to you, and hoping to mer-
it your support l am,
Yours very truly,
VIM. BrOadbent.

ANOTHER ONE OF OUR BOYS
A Former Chalmers Boy Is Honored
by the People in Western Home

The many friends of Ollie S. Nit
chell living in Chalmers and thruout
White and Benton counties will be
pleased to hear of his nomination to
the Office of county treasurer on the
Republican ticket in his county in
Colorado. He is located at Ordway,
Colorado. where his father is now
visiting. He received the nomination
in the Republican primary without
opposition and will no doubt be elect
ed to that office for he is man who
deserves the support Of the people of
his county.
Ollie Mitchell resided here until
about ten years ago when he moved
to Ordway. He is well known here
and is the son of j. E. Mitchell, one
of the well known and best farmers
in this section of the country, resid-
ing seven miles west of Chalmers
where he has highly improved 800
acre farm.
Ollie's friends will await with much
interest the outcome of the election
in his far west home, for they want to
see him elected. He Is a substantial
farmer, and being a successful bust
ness man he will be a successful man
in office. His word, too, is as good as
his money, and he will make most
excellent county treasurer. We ex.
tend our best wishes for his success.

This IS THE BEST

Intention of trading his property here
for a home in some other state, then
have him return and insert an I'D
something like the following, means
something:
"To Trade-Five acres Gulf
coast land for Ordway vacant
lots"
That Is what Fred Hoffman has
done. He was called to Mena, Ar
kansas several days ago ON account
of the illness OF his mother. He left
declaring that he would trade his pro-
perty here while away and move. He
came back after a trip made to Kan
sas City, down thru Missouri and Ar
kansas, then thru Oklahoma and Kan
sas.
"Not for me; not on your life,
would l trade Crowley county pro-
perty for anything saw while away,
he stated. Sometimes we think 1t
but you'll get that out of your mood
lie" if you'll Just take trip" Hoff-
man is now wanting to trade for more
stuff in Ordway. even vacant lots will
be accepted!
In this connection the following
taken from last weeks King Center
news proves Hoffman's statement
true:
Arthur Johnson who moved
| his family to California in the
| early spring came back last week
| with his family. Mr.. johnson
! says "give me Colorado and es-
| pecially Crowley county every
