To The Democratic Voters

1t has been circulated that l have
been Commonwealth ATTORNEY for
two terms and am seeking election
for the third time. The facts are as
follows: In July 1913. Mr.. Rush NJ.
Williamson. who was elected Com
monwealth's Attorney in 1911, resign
ed the position and | was appointed
to fill his unexpired term OFF, years
and months. | was candidate for
the Commemorative Attorneyship In
the election Of 1915, and vas elected
for the first time. In August 1917, l
resigned from the position to enter
the army after serving but twenty
months Of the term. have therefore
been Commonwealth Attorney for
but Four Years and One Month, and
am therefore not in fact seeking the
nomination for the third term. l
trust that the voters In the Democratic
Primary will bear this In mind on
Saturday, August the 10th.
Respectfully,
PHILIP WILLIAMS.
