and fitness are most essential is
the Sheriff. These three, al
though their duties are widely
different, arc officers of the
court, and as such charged with
the maintenance of public order.
The Sheriff is the executive of
hccr of the court, and through
him much of the work of the
Clerk and States Attorney is car
ried to completion. The Clerk
must have certain technical quail
hcations and experience to con-
duct his office to the highest sat
isfaction of the public; the
States Attorney must be a law
yer, and the better lawyer he
is, the better for the public in
terests. For a Sheriff the prime
requisites are that he be a man of
action, of rugged honesty and
fidelity, without physical fear or
moral flaw, and thoroughly ac-
quainted with human nature. Mr..
Dove meets all these require
ments. He has been all his life
in close contact with all elements
OF the population. He has been
successful in his private BUSH
ness and has exhibited all the
traits that the people like to see
in man who aspircs to be the
chief peace officer of the county.

ganization is to secure an amendment
to the state constitution that will en-
able US to vote bonds to the extent
OF ten per cent Of our assessed valu-
alton. This will enable us to raise

government aid would give Us $5,-
900, 900. which would be enough to
give us paved highways along the
trunk lines, and one Of these is the
road to Ashland. The secretary Of
the new organization was instructed
to communicate with the various
cities in adjoining counties, asking
for their cooperation"

will be glad to have the hearty and
whole-souled assistance OF Ashland
and Jackson county In this move
ment. II the amendment to the con-

ty will pave the road to the Jackson
county line, and put II up to the lat
ter county to do the rest. IF you
are going to travel our gait" Mr..
Murray said, you will have to go
some. for we have taken running
start and nothing that We cap con-
ceive of is going to stop us. Are you
In the race?" ,,
