LAST CARD.

To The Democrats Of The Third
Appellate District.
Permit me at the close of the
campaign for the Appellate Judge
ship nomination to say that | have
served as County Judge of Hart
County, and as Commemorative S
Attorney of the Tenth Judicial
District, and am now serving my
second term as Judge of that dis
trict, which is the largest in the
State, having four weeks of court
scheduled for every month in the
year. Further, during this year
every court in that district has
been regularly held, all the dock
cts are now clear, and not case
nor a motion has been continued
on account OF my candidacy. In
addition to this, during this year,
have assisted other Judges by
holding four terms of Court out.
side the district.
My friends think these varied
experiences would help one in the
discharge of the duties of the Ap'
pellate Judgeship. While my du
ties in Court have prevented me
from making a close canvass,
trust my course meets with you
appreciation, and feel that you vii
give my claims proper considera
ton. | submit my candidacy tt
your wisdom and judgment.
Truly,
D. A. McCandIess.
