made thorough preparation 10 discuss

suspected of Oriental discrimination to

There was a dignity in their demeanor
that commanded respect.
No delegation showed more tact than

lproof against misrepresentation. 1t
was their custom not to commit them
selves without notice that Toxic had
been consulted. At all times they were
scrupulous to be understood. and when
they took a position, as when they
made a stand for the warship Mutsu,
they were ready to agree TO compen-

judges. The judges of the
county court have charge of the
whole business of the county
adjustment of the taxes, audit.
ing and payment of all bills
presented to the court The
business of the county concerns
US all. In view of all the Sc facts,
we should cast our votes for
capable business men, men that
have made a success oftheir own
business affairs, men that are in
terested in the public welfare of
the community in which they
reside, men that have had ex-
perience in the transactions Of
business for the public. Joe H..
Dennis, candidate for associate
Judge of the south district. is a
man having all of these gualifi-
cations. He was born and rails
ed in the county, lived in the

public schools, is our neighbor
and friend A Vote for him is
certainly a step in the right

. A Statement.


Because OF the fact that l may
not have had a personal talk with
some of the voters of this Co., /
take this method of introducing
myself to you as a candidate for
Recorder of Deeds.
l will first say: That l have
made a clean, fair and honorable
race to.date and will 40 continue
until the end of this campaign.
I understand that some few
voters have been told that l serv.
ed only three monthsin thearmy,
but, in order that you may know
the facts, will inform you that l
served from May, 10Th. 1917, to
February, 1st. 1919, being more
than twenty months.
l am aware of the fact that
many frivolous reportsare always
circulated just proceeding any
and all elections and also know
that all. reasonable persons give
such reports little consideration
In regard to the duties of a
County Office, l feel that he
should be at his post at any and
all business hours six days in
the week, fifty two weeks in the
year and every year of his term
I consider county officer in
the same relation to the public
as l do a hired hand to the farm,
er with the possible exception,
that, the officer is responsible
for his acts and the discharge of
his duties.
Should l be nominated and
elected, my system will be as
follows:
To treat you with the utmost
courtesy. To use every effort
and any length of time in aiding
you in searching the records for
any information which you may
desire. To place any and all
deeds, mortgages and other in.
struments of writing upon the
records as per original and in
the event l detect any errors in
the original instrument, l will
promptly notify you Of such
errors in order that same may
be corrected before being made
a matter of record. l will file
each and every instrument as
soon as l receive same. l will
be as prompt as possible in re-
cording and delivering your
deeds etc. l will attend to any
matter of business you may
place in my hands, whether it be
connected with the Recorders
Office or otheE business.
Thanking you in advance for

Republican primary congress.
ional campaign in the 10Th
district. Both of the can,
didates reside in the same town;
both are former newspaper pub
fishers and both fled for the no
mination at the "11th hour" as
the time for filing closed.
Senator Phil A. Bennett and D.
M. Rush, both of Buffalo, are
the candidates.
Mr.. Bennett because of his
outstanding service in the State
Senate through his efficient
service as an inspector for the
Federal Land Bank and for many
years publisher of the Buffalo
Reflex, an outspoken and in
fluential Republican organ, is by
far the most widely known of
the two men. As a brother of
Mrs. r. Il. Lemdns, the wife of
a former publisher of the Mirror,
he is especially wellknown in the
Richland vicinity and this will
give him added strength here.
Mr.. Rush has had no legislative
experience of any character, 50
far as we can learn and has re.
ached an advanced age which
would render him physically
unfit, no doubt to render an
efficient service in Congress if
nominated and elected.
Speaking for itself, the Mirror
feels that Senaaor Bennett is
the only one of the two men who
possesses in any measure those
qualifications which are required
of a member of Congress if he is
to represent his constituency
with any measure of success.
Aside from his extensive and
unusually successful Legislative
career, he has had a wide bus.
inessexperience, has anacquaint,
ance with public men and affairs
which would be indispensable in
the successful discharge of
Congressional duties andpossess.
es that energy and spirit of in.
dustry which would enable him
to render a good account of him,
self.
AS the date for the primary
election approaches we feel that
the Republican voters of the
district will accept this view
generally and that Senator Ben
nett will be made the nominee by
a decisive majority. From the
Richland Mirror, July 10.
