TO THE VOTERS OF LITTLE RIVER
COVNTY:

sion as to my Qualifications should l
be elected Judge l feel it my prive-
ledge to say a few words in my own
behalf.
If had not known that could ad-
minis ter intelligently over the affairs
of the Judges office l would not have
asked my friends to put me in the
office.
When it comes to the practical, COM
mon sense and economical duties of
the Judge Go not ask any man any
odds.
Legal questions of law may come
up but if they do l expect to be equip
ped with the help of the best ana most
proficient attorneys in the district.
Any citizen can recall when some
of the best and most substantial and
practical business men OF our county
acted as County Judge but they were
not lawyers. Any reasonable man
knows that these men awaited them
selves of the services and advice of
legal talent when technical questions
were involved
The contention that l am not quail
fled to fill the office is simply the
doings of my opposers who are like
the drowning man; grasping at a
straw.
l know how to build roads and
bridges and how to build them at the
lowest possible cost. l know how to
do such work in a way that the county
will not have to pay for the same
work again in few months.
l believe further that l know when
claim against the county is just and
right. l believe in paying people for
what they do and what they sell to the
county but do not believe in seeing
the county pay for things that the
people never get.
1t was claimed two years ago and it
is being said now that a certain man
in Ashdown was running me for Judge
and that if l am elected that this man
will dictate my line of action. This is
as black a falsehoOd as any man could
tell. Some good strong men of Ash
down are supporting me all right but
l do not propose to be handled by any
man or any set of men and have no
respect for any man who does not
have the grace and grit to stand on
his own merits and dictate his own
administration and any man who con-
tends that l am not standing on my
own responsibility is too much of a
coward to come out in public and
make his claim.
If am elected will be the Judge.
shall give a patient and careful hear
ing to my friends but l expect to do
my duty is l see it without fear or IA
vor
l will not have time and opportunity
to see each and every voter in the
county but / will appreciate your vote
just the same and will try and show
you my gratitude in good substantial
way.
Those who do not vote for me may
rest assured that will not be SO stu
pid as to feel unkindly toward you You
have right to vote as you please and
it is none of my business If you vote
for my opponent.
My privilege in the matter is to
simply ask your support and assure
you of my appreciation of the same.
The best l can promise is to do the
best l can and I'll do it and l want
ii distinctly known that l do not be-
long to any man or any set of men.
have no interest in any bank or
any other business institution in the
, county and am under no obligations
to any ore in any way l am simply
running for Judge on my own merits
as citizen of the county.
Yours truly,
M MoCOpD

Maarsbergen is the station before

had escorted her from Zrvenaar, the
first Dutch frontier station, to her

here but the drawn corners Of her

EISNER DENOUNCED

Declared Not Euen Citizen of
Germany.
BIZ the Associaftd Prtss.

BERLIN, Nov 29.-"Kurt Eisner Is
beginning to become a tremendous
danger to Germany" says the LokdI-
Anzei0er in commenting upon the Ba-
varian Premier's act in breaking off
relations with the Berlin Foreign Of
fice. A similar attitude Is taken by
the entire bourgeois press, and even
the Socialist Voricderts does not be-
lieve that Eisner has taken the right
road to assure the unity OF the empire
and obtain better peace conditions"
The Berlin press in general con-
dennis him as an obstinate, imprac-
teal dreamer. 1t Is declared that
Elsner was born in Galicia and that
there is some doubt about his German
citizenship. This Is intensifying the
opposition to him in some quarters.
Bavarian Catholics oppose him. and
there is also opposition in certain Rad
ical circles. Rachel Rabinowitz. a
Jewess, writes to the BavarIan Courier
as follows:
"Eisner is neither n German nor a
Bavarian. but a jew and foreigner.
1t Is a thoroughly sound feeling which
makes the Bavarians object to being
ruled by foreigner. We Jews would
non-Jewish head for a Jewish congre-
CATION"
All the newspapers except those of
the Extremist Left declare that Els
ner's attitude creates an intolerable
situation. but give no indication Of the
manner In which to deal with him.

GERMAN REVOLT
UPSETS CUSTOMS
Stern System Of Former Days
Is Swept AWay.

BERNIE, Nov. 81 (delayed). The
amazing changes in Germany. espe.
cially to those who know the stern
system OF former days, are illustrated
by many stories brought to Switzer.
land from Germany by travellers.
A Dutch diplomatic courier tells of
his first trip after the break UP of the
empire. He was unable to get further
than Cologne, because there was no
room in the railway trains. He went
to the Workmen's and Soldiers Coun.
Gil to apply for n seat on southbound
train. He found a group OF common
soldiers seated in a big room, Joking
and smoking.
The leader OF the soldiers asked the
courier what kind OF treatment the
German couriers received in Holland
On learning that an entire railway
compartment was given them the sol.
der said he guessed the Dutch should
have the same privilege in Germany
He told the courier TO go To the mili-
tary commandant's office. There the
courier found an old time officer. who
at first sternly refused permission.
He granted it instantly. however
when told that the soldiers had given
their permission. He advised the
courier to be sure and get wise from
the council before leaving.
On the train the courier found
General at a table. Soon three COM
mon soldiers entered. took of their
haversacks and seated themselves
at the Generals table. Without saint
ing or even noticing the General they
began 10 eat.
Another new arrival in Switzerland
is Russian from Odessa. who entered
Germany by way of .Brest -I;'ovSk
and Warsaw. He was worried est his
insufficient knowledge of German and
his marked Russian accent might
make trouble, so he did not talk for
hours. Finally, however, speech hc-
came imperative. His fellow travel
lers demanded his identity, AMI when
the Russian revealed it they faN
deiuged him with attention.
One traveller offered him a cigar
and another bottle of wine Tra
Germans conversed affahly ard
adopted French, as the Language more
familiar to the Russian.
The Russian reached Switzerland
that the Germans IN over
turning their Government also over
turned most of their one time ,gs-
toms. He said their habits OF thi0h7S
had changed as no one ever htj he
licved possible.
