Mr.. Casados received for his last
year in office si6,O6335. Caldwell
received the year following sii,-
O29.9j. or a difference OF S2,0S3.iO
in favor Of Casados. After deduct
ing approximately $500 for fees re-
coived by Mr.. Casados but left un-
recorded at the expiration Of his
term Of office, there would still be
a balance in his favor of S533.i0
But here is demonstrated Repub-
lican economy: With only this
slight difference in fees, the eX-
penditure of Mr.. Casados for 1920
was Si3,3i956, while 1891 Mr.. Cald-
well gave an efficient administra-
lion for $82it.67. In other words,
the S2,O33{0 received by the Dem
ocratic administration over the Re-
publican year only cost the county
50, 1879. Rather expensive isn't it2
Now, if anyone had rather have the
figures for 1919, they are easily OBJ
tainablc, and will tell a like story.

bent Mr.. c. c. Caldwell, with gross
extravaganza and waste in the con-
duct Of his office, and that he has
made a family affair or the dispo-
sition Of the patronage while in Of

the court house his wife, sister and
sister-in-law. while many capable
and efficient service men were un-
employed"
Mr.. Caldwell is charged with ey-
lravagance, yet he reduced the op-
Grating expense by more than
S5,O0O0O his first year in office
besides putting in operation a sys-
lem Of efficiency that really serves
the people and reduced the working
force one-half.

sister and sistcr-in-law have never
been employed in his office, and
his wife only for a period Of ronr

being available.

A REPUBLICAN TICKET

Our present Board Of County Com
m'ssioners has ever been mindful
OF the county's needs. They have
worked faithfully for the unbuilding
OF the county and have by coop
Grafton and careful expenditure of
The county's funds built more miles

than have previously been built IN
The history Of Uuion county. They
have paid off the entire county
bonded debt during their admin

ledge and Grant Denny for re-elec-
ton and know that they will give
you the same efficient service that
they rendered during the past two
years.
Mr. Jack Zurich would not con-
sent TO longer service, therefore the
Republican party selected Mr. Perry
Best of Hayden, n. NJ, to be the
third member of The County Board
of Commissioners.
Perry Best was born in Missouri
in 1888. He is a farmer and stock
man who knows the needs of the
producer. He has had broad ex-
perience in road work, railroad
grading and surveying both in and
out Of New Mexico. He came here
in 1907, has been successful in his
own business and is known all over
the county as a booster for better
schools, better roads and economy
in public business.
Perry knows the value of a dollar

KENNEDY MAKES ATTACK
ON C. C. CALDWELL

Wv W W eilIgNEIh
In the issue Of the Citizen, under
date Of October 20th there appears
paid advertisement Of the Demo-
cratic County Central Committee in
which a number of the present
candidates on that ticket make a
number Of charges affecting the
present Republican administration,
looking toward economy.
In this article we expect to dis
cuss freely and in an impartial man
ner the questions that have been
presented in the advertisement con-
cerning our present Incumbent in
the clerks office, C. q, Caldwell, and
the aspirant, Bruce Kennedy.
We do not propose to attack the
character Of Mr. Kennedy; he is well
known in Union county, and we do
not believe that il is ever neces-
sary 20 sling mud or inject person.
alties into a campaign, but we DO
believe that in the name of good
government and efficiency The
News should Join The good citizens
Of the county in an effort to correct
the following statements given out
under Mr.. Kennedy's signature. and
reflecting upon the Judgment of the
people who elected Mr.. Caldwell.
Mr.. Kennedy was ill-inlormed when
he made the following statements:
T. c. {. Caldwell spent his time
in the service taking sea baths and
eating fresh fish and oysters in
Florida
This Statement is Incorrect be-
cause Mr. Caldwell during his term
of service was stationed at San
Antonio, Texas, and at Newport
| News, Va. Mr.. Caldwell says he
was never in Florida in his life.
But this has no bearing whatever
on the race for county clerk. Eat
ing fish and oysters and taking sea
baths would hardly dsqualify Mr.
Caldwell for the office. The real
important thing in the whole busi-
ness is the fact that Caldwell was
i'm the service and subject TO the
orders OF his government If they
saw fit TO keep him in the L. S
that was their business, and he had
absolutely no voice in the matter

, Mr. Caldwell earned less than Si2,-
I 10000, at a cost TO The county OF
, over Si30OOO. Republican efficiency
is expensive.
