To The People of
Dickinson County

Due to the short time from
now until election day, I shall be
unable to see all of you in person
and l take this method to say to
those who l may not have the
pleasure of seeing, that most OF
you know me well and OF my
past official record as Common
Wealth's Attorney of this county,
and if upon this record you feel
that your interest will be best
served by my election again to
this office I shall highly apprecl-
ate your support. l note from
publications in the newspapers
and handbills you are appealed
to by other candidates for sup
port from many angles in the
way of religious affiliation, pow
erty, photographs and other
means. but few of them speak Of
qualifications for the respective
offices as their reason for asking
your support and since my friend
Holiday Sutherland has referred
to me personally in his self
praised adj of his unequaled ac-
complishments, "That since he
had entered the race he had not
heard of me using the words, J"
QUALIFICATION and DILL
GENCE," inferring that since he
had entered the race with his self
praise, accomplishments of learn
ing in the law he had knocked
me out of the ring On the first
round. In my previous short ad.
some time ago, I asked the voters
to take my record as Common
wealth's Attorney of this county
for sixteen years service, with
out using one word Of self-pralse

Election
(From page one)

paign wakes warmer hourly -
among the candidates.
During the past week several
meetings have been held at vari-
Gus points within the county by
candidates and party leaders on
both sides and plans are being
made to deliver the maximum
vote possible under the circum-
stances.
Of course no single candidate
or party leader has conceded de-
feat at this stage of the game and
neither is any person likely to do
so until the final tabulation is
made. "Hope springs eternal in
the human breast" However, in
confidence many persons concede
that two or more races will be
decidedly close. But in the main
such predictions are merely per-
sonal opinion and no person can
predict when the minds of the
voters can be opened for inspec-
ton.
There are many estimates of
the mail vote to be delivered in
the coming election. These esti-
mates vary from 1900 to 1000.
There is no question but what
the mail vote will be the deciding
factor. should it reach a high fig
ure.
Dickenson County herald. [volume] (Clintwood, Va.) 1939-195?, 1943-10-28

for myself, upon which to cast
their votes in the coming election,
this being the only simple and
correct way to present my case
to the people and my friend
Sutherland offered you MOTH
ING except his self praise Of his
great speeches, and briefs in the
Supreme Courts and court in
structions in text books upon
which to cast your votes, and I
have always understood that self
praise was not the BEST, and if
one half of what Mr.. Sutherland
has said of himself as to his le-
gal accomplishments is true l
think that a Commemorative At
torney's place for a county is too
small for such ability and that
he should have something larger.
You owe it to yourselves and
your people to support and elect
men to office who will best serve
and protect your persons and
property. and especially from the
over burden of heavy taxation,
which will evidently come in the
future from the present Govern
ment indebtedness.
If I am again elected, I shall
endeavor to continue to faithful
ly and impartially execute the
duties of this office to the best of
my ability. and thanking you all
in advance for your favorable
consideration and any support
you may give me, remain,
Sincerely yours,

SAVE TIN CANS

For months Kennewick house,
wives have been needing the de-
mands of the government to save
their tin cans. In many cases the
accumulations have become bur-
densome and no word has been
received as to what could be done
with them. Now most women have
come to the conclusion that it was
another "wolf" cry and they have
ceased to be as careful.
At long last is the word that now
provision has been made for them.
Sponsored by the local Kiwanis
club, arrangements have been
made for their collection and ship
ment to Yakima where the car
loads will be assembled. Of course
the same provisions are made for
the cans-they must be cleaned,
delabeled, and the ends cut out
and the bulge flattened. Then they
are to be taken to the bin and left
in their containers SO that the
truckers can handle them without
undue work, as the transportation
is being handled free. .:-
So save your tin cans and help
with the war effort. ~-.s.

Since it has been impossible for
the city to spend any considerable
portion of their street and alley
money during the past couple of
years, there should be a sizeable
fund accumulated for street inn
provement work by the time ma
terials are again available. There
is probably no town of comparable
size in the United States which
has such terrible main street
so far as the so-called paving is
concerned. This replacement
should be one of the city's first
postwar activities. AS it is, the
surfacing his served its usefulness
and has long passed its term OF
life. New materials, new tech
niques developed during the war
should provide a smooth, skid
proof, durable surface for many
years to come-and still be within
the bounds of reasonable cost. We
hope the city fathers have this

Now if only the business sec

require that the speaker confine
his remarks to the matter being de-
bated. All that is required is that
he continue to talk. This is some
times done for hours and even
days. Our courts have worked
out much more sensible rule
which does not permit the admis-
sion of any testimony that is not
pertinent to the case on trial. By
this means the immorally wasteful
practice of filibustering is not pos
sible. The same means should APP
ply in Congress. Only discussion
obviously pertinent to the question
should be permitted.

must be destroyed" Carthage was
the chief city of the Phoenicians.
When it was finally destroyed by
the Romans the buildings were
leveled, the ground where they
stood plowed, and sowed to oats,
SO that no evidence of the existence
of the city remained. We are drop
ping the suggestion for the bene-
fit of those who are wondering
what to do with Berlin.
