ATTENTION, VOTERS.
To the Voters Of Adair County:

~ OuO V NOU0IS Vi AudlT SOuQUy.
Some weeks ago the governing au.
thority of my party met in convention
and unanimously requested that be-
come a candidate for the office of
County Attorney at the coming No
Vember election. Added to this, also,
has been the personal solicitations of
many Republicans asking that 1
make the race. All this has been
without solicitation on my part.
Knowing the condition of affairs In
Adair county as l do, and knowing
the necessity that something should
be done, 1 consider these request made
on me as call to duty which l feel
that l am compelled to heed.
The County Attorney IS the most
important County officer which you
elect because Re has, or can have,
more influence in shaping the fiscal
affairs Of the county than any other
man in the county, and in him, and
within his reach, is vested almost ex.
clusfVely the means to bring about
the enforcement of law.
The condition of YOUR fiscal affairs
is, perhaps, not fully known to all of
you, but you do know that you are
paying more taxes than you ever paid
before. You have paid during the
first three years of the present
administration, the year, 1921, not
being considered, because the taxes
this year have not yet been collected,
an average Of over fifteen Thousand
dollars per year more than was COL
lected by the administration preced-
ing this one for local purposes.
Notwithstanding the fact that
there has been exacted from you these
large sums in taxes, the County Treas
urer informs me that there has been
presented to him for payment claims
allowed prior to 1921 amounting to
over Thirteen thousand dollars, and
that he had on hands no money to pay
these claims,
The law makes the County Attor-
ney the legal advisor of all the county
officers, and also makes it his duty to
be present at each sitting of your
Fiscal Court and to see thaG the court
does not go beyond the limits provid-
ed by law in making allowances, and
to see that no claim without merit
shall be allowed, and you are to, Judge
as to whether the present County At
torney has been as attentive to his
duties as he should have been espec-
tally since he has drawn in salary dur
ling his term twice as much as any
other man who ever held the Office.
1t seems needless that l should call
your attention to the inexcusable and
deplorable lack of law enforce.
ment in this community, because this
fact of failure to enforce law has be
come a matter of common knowl-
edge to all men.
believe in the enforcement of law
regardless of who the offender may
be, and believe iu the economical
administration of your financial af-
fairs, and should you elect me,
pledge to you that will employ ev-
cry agency provided by law to accom-
plish these results.
shall shortly have an appointment
in your neighborhood at which time
will fully place these conditions be,
fore you. Ad
Yours very truly,
Gordon Montgomery.
