man of fine character and accommo-
dating to all who have dealings with
the office and deserves the hearty sup
port of the voters.
For Sheriff-There is little need to
tell the voters who Johnny Simpson
is. He was sheriff of Prowers coun-
ty for six years from 1909 to 1915,
and made record as terror to
wrong doors that was state wide. The
people of the county know that with
him in charge the law will be enforced
vigorously, fearlessly and with favor
itism to robody.
For Assessor-The taxpayers of the
county without regard to party or
class regard A. j. Davy as the best
and fairest assessor the county could
get and they just naturally vote for
him ms matter of course. Davy is
a popular favorite and you couldn't
beat him with a club.

For missioners-Prowers coun-
ty is facing the problem for the first
time in its history of electing all three
OF its county commissioners at one
time. The republican party has plac-
ed on its ticket for these three places,
A. p. Knuckey Of Holly, II. F. Deck
er of Bristol and Ray McGrath of
May Valley. No better known or
more able men are to be found in the
county, all three are heavily interested
in all the county's chief industries, all
are heavy taxpayers and able TO handle
successfully all business problems that
may come before them. The voters
can not find three men more deeply
interested in the welfare of the coun-
ty's government and it is fortunate
that they could be induced to offer
themselves for the suffrages of the
voters.

In the representative district COM
posed of Baca and Prowers counties
Hon. w. B. Gordon, one of the leaders
of the Prowers county bar and man

socialistic innovations in legislation.
