JUDGE G. A. MCMILLAN
ANNOUNCES CANDIDAC,.
TO THE VOTERS OF BOURBON
COUNTY.

TO THE VOTERS OF BOURBON
COUNTY:
[ take this means of announcing to
you that am a candidate for re-elec.
ton to the flee of Judge of the Bour-
bon County Court. My present term
as County Judge is my first term anu
may add that it has been customary
with Democrats to compliment an Off
Ger with a second term when he has
endeavored to do his duty the first
term. This was done with Judge
Matt Turney, Judge Russell Mann,
Judge Henry G. Smith and Judge
Denis Dundon. My opponent will no
doubt admit this custom as he, him
self, is now enjoying under this Gus.
ton a second term as County Attorney.
which was conceded him without op
position. Such endorsement the sec.
ond term of office | likewise ask at
the hands of the people of Bourbon
County.
II l am reelected the public will
have a continuation of the faithful
and efficient services of my appointea.
Mr.. Ben F. Bedford, Jr., as Road En-
gineer, and also the capable and polite
services in my Office of Miss Grace
Haskins.
If reelected, l shall continue, as
during my first term, to devote my
time to the duties of the Office without
attempting to practice law at the
same time.
The intimate knowledge of the many
things that pertain to this office, in
Guiding the turnpike work, have &C
quired during my present term, make
me more serviceable to the county the
next term. submit that it would re.
dound to the best interest of the coun-
ty for the work l have set on foot
during this term to be continued
through another term. My opponent
has published that he is not on any
slate OF lineup or a member of any fac
ton. | do not suppose he means to
say he is the only candidate so stu.
ated, though some might give his card
that construction. For the benefit o.
such, ! will say that | am just as free
as he is from the Objectionable
things he mentions, and if reelected
can say as he does, 81 propose to give
You real business administration and
to devote my time and energy to the
duties of the Office. To personally see
that no favOritism is shown in awar1-
ing contracts, to also see that the sss
pixies receive their just proportion of
the money expended in improvements
lit is possible for THIS to be done at
this time, as during my present term
have caused all of the main turnpikes
to be put in good order and at this
time | have secured sufficient machin-
cry to repair the side pikes) and TO
impartially, faithfully and efficiently
enforce the law and in all matters to
give you the best service within me
l will make you no promises which I
know / cannot fulfill, only to obtain
your votes" This I have done in the
past and expect, if reelected, to con-
tinue doing.
During my present term we have re-
constructed most Of the main turn
pixies of the county, erected sixteen
concrete bridges that are permanent
and will never have to be reconstruct
ed, and have also secured an up-to-
date construction outfit, together with
two large road trucks for the repair
ing of turnpikes and have the same in
operation every day at the least posi-.
Bile cost to the county.
If you feel that 1 have made you
a competent official and am entitled
to the endorsement l seek, will be
very grateful for your surrport.
1t remains without saying that
have always been and will continue
to be good Democrat, and have
given my time, my money and all that
is within me in support of our party
and will always continue to do so.
AS soon as the duties Of my office
permit, l will make a personal and
house to house canvass in order that
might see you each in person and ask
for your support, which l now take
this means Of asking.
c. A. MCMILLAN.
