To The Voters of Dickinson
County:

Some months ago l had pub
lished in the two newspapers of
this county the manner in which
l was regularly nominated by the
Republican County Committee,
which completely disproved the
false report being circulated by a
few of my personal and political
enemies to the effect ''that l was
running as an independent can
didiate for the office Of Common
wealth's Attorney in the coming
election" and as a few of my
friends who were not readers of
the papers containing the publ
cation at the time did not see
the article and few of the I'M
scrupulous and untruthful sup
porters Of my opponents. in at
tempting to mislead the few so
uninformed as to my regular
nomination by the Republican
County Committee, who wonder
why two Republican candidates
are running for the office of
Commemorative Attorney this
time, and for the benefit Of those
so uniformed friends as to the
manner in which I was nominal
ed as the regular Republican can
didate for Commemorative At
tOrney, to be voted for at the
November election, I feel in JUS
tice to myself and thase friends
that | should republish the SOL
emn declaration of the Republi
can County Committee nominal
ing me as such candidate, and I
should further add that the pur-
pose Of my early nomination
being November 20, 1912, that
! hundreds CT our Dickinson coun-
ty prospective voters were at the
time being indicted into the war
and taken away to the army and
navy for war services and need
ed assistance in the way of
REG ISTRATION which had to
be done in person and payment
Of thir poll taxes in order to
vote; hence the necessity for
early action.
The following is an exact copy
of my nomination by the Repub-
lican County Committee nomin-
ating me and filed with the Clerk
Of the Circuit Court with my
notice Of card dacy, certified by
the Clerk and being the only can
didate now running for office

NOMINATION FOR
COMMONWEALTH ATTORNEY

Whereas, the time limit in
which to pay poll taxes in order
to vote at the next election for
county offices is less than six
months and the burden of the
candidates to be voted for at said
election could and would be
greatly lessened by seeing the
voters at the treasurer's sittings
in the months of November and
December of this year for the
purpose and we the undersigned
members of the Republican coun
ty Committee recommending and
requesting that the Republicans
who expect to be candidates at
said election take immediate ac-
ton to this course in seeing the
voters to pay same and it appear
ing that ]. C.. Smith is the only
Republican candidate spoken of
who will accept the nomination
for the office of Commemorative
Attorney in said election, we,
therefore. name and select him as
the Republican candidate to be
voted for at the November cleo
ton, 1913, and request him to ac-
cept the said nomination and
take such steps in conjunction
with any other candidates for the
other county offices in securing
payment Of the unpaid poll tax
es Of the Republican voters.

A Word From
EVerette 3. STANLEY
Candidate For Clerk

back and help the other fellow
along the best we could. It would
be a new experience for a mem
Der of my family to be elected to
public office
l am qualified for the office,
and to be frank with you, need
the office. AS you know the teach
ing profession is the most I'M
derpaid of any profession in this
country. In order to meet all the
requirements and to give the
children the best that is possible
it is necessary that teachers spend
large part Of their time and
earnings in school in order that
they may retain their positions
as teachers. AS a result teachers
give a life Of service to their peo-
pie and remain poor at the end.
My election will make it possible
for me to hold what little l have
been able to accumulate teaching
school. and at the same time put
me in position to do things for
my family that I will be unable
to do if I am defeated. In max
sng up you mind as to how you
are going to vote in this particu-
lar race I would appreciate it if
YOU would take into consideration
the future welfare Of my boys.
Consider my case from the stand
point of need, and remember that
the person that needs public Of
flee the worst is the one that will
appreciate it the most when he
gets it. He is the one that will
know you and will do the most
for you after the election.
I earnestly and hopefully So
licit your support, and if elected
l promise you that for the next
eight years you will receive an
efficient, courteous and impair
tial administration in the office of
County Clerk. I believe that am
acquainted with practically all
of the people in the county, and
I trust that most Of you know me
and have the confidence in ms
that I have always aspired to OBJ
tain.
I want to take this opportunity
of thanking each and everyone
for your thoughtfulness and kind
ness in past years, and I want to
assure you that you will never
regret any support that you give
me in this campaign through any
act of mine. In return for your
support, I promise a fair and
honest administration, and one
which will be devoted to the best
interests Of the people Of our
county.
With best personal wishes to
you and your I am
Very sincerely yours,

DEAR VOTERS:

personally, l am taking this OPP
portunity of giving you sume
facts for you to think about ana
to discuss with members of your
family, friends and neighbors.
AS you know, am a candidate
for Clerk, and whether or not
realize this lifelong ambition de-
ponds upon your support in the
election on November End.
l am not conducting a mud
Singing campaign and have ad-
vised my friends and supporters
accordingly. l have nothing DIS
paraging Or uncomplimentary to
say about my opponent or anyone
associated with this campaign.
My opponent is a member of one
If the most prominent families
in the county. His father was the
first Clerk land served in this
c9pacity for several years. From
1923 to 1882 another member of
the family served the county as

am the son of Mr.. and Mrs. JIM.
Stanley. I am "a years of age and
married and have two sons. l was
married on Jan. 3, 1881, to Beuna
Reedy, the daughter of Rev. En-
Dry A. Reedy.
I got my education in the days
before school buses came to Dick
enson County. l rode horseback
from my home to the nearest
high school, seven miles away. I
got my college education in
piecemeal fashion. taught dur
ing the school year and went to
college during the summer. To be
exact I attended twelve summer
schools before I was awarded my
Mester's Degree in August, 1887.
1t was necessary that I get my
education in this manner as my
parents were financially unable
to help me. By first-hand exper-
fence | feel that | am well &C
quainted with the problems of
the country boys and girls.
For the past fifteen years [
have been serving as a teacher.
For the past ten years I have
been principal of the Ervinton
High School at Nora. / invite
each Of you to inquire into my
reputation and character as a
teacher and public spirited citi-
zen. I have done nothing that |
care for the public knowing at
this time. All I ask is that you
get and act on facts and not on
tales that are usu"lly circulated
On candidates during the cam
paign.

will show that my family was
one of the first families to settle
in Dickinson County and not a
member of my family has ever
