Third Judicial District

The many promises of loyal
support and the encouragement
we are receiving from all over
the district assures us that Mr..
Joe H. Ford will very likely be
nominated for Circuit Judge in
the first primary, August 18th.
The constituency has had time
to investigate him in every way
and we want to thank all those
who were interested to that ex-
tent for their fair and impartial
consideration Of his claims. All
that is necessary now for his
nomination is for every voter to
go to the polls calmly, unpre-
JUDGED, uninfuenced by rumor
and vote his sentiments. When
this is done we have no fear of
Mr.. Ford's being the next
Circuit Judge. He is conducting
his campaign on the very high
est plane of respect and courtesy
to every one; these chRracteris-
tics coupled with his past life's
motto of good will and fair play
to all has won for him the sup
port he is receiving.

supporters remain loyal regard

safe.

To the Voters of the Fourth Con-

Ladies and Gentlemen:
have been actively engaged
in the campaign for Congress
for the past seven months. and
as near as possible made house
to house canvass of all the coun-
ties except my home county of
Clay and Webster. These two
counties seven years ago elected
me State Senator in the first
primary over three strong oppo-
nents.
From a careful calculation of
the District, taking everything
into consideration, the large
vote / will receive in Clay and
Webster county and the wide
acquaintance in the other nine
counties, | will be in the second
primary.
My grandparents settled in
Clay County in 1874. My father
was a Confederate veteran. 1
was left an orphan at ten years
old, worked my way through
college, graduated at the A. &
M. College, Miss, and attended
Cornell University, New York,
two years. My record as a citi-
zen, State Senator. and a pri-
yate soldier in the World War is
an open book, and if you think
The common people should be
represented by a qualified far
mer, rather than always a law
yer, | shall appreciate your ac-
sive support in this race.
Yours for service,
