I am more than willing to stand on the record I have made in the conduct of the office for the past three and a half years. During that time I have tried to render to the citizens of this county an efficient, courteous and faithful service and have always refused to allow anyone to use the office for the purpose of persecution or venting personal spleen. In other words, I have endeavored to use common sense and good judgment in the performance of my duties and with a view of giving the people of this county a sane and not a fanatical administration. If my three and a half years of service along these lines meets with your approval I respectfully solicit your support and vote, and if renominated .and fleeted I shall endeavor to continue to so conduct the office as to" merit the respect and hearty co-optration of the citizens of the county. I do not feel it would be fair to the people of the county to neglect the duties of my office in order to make an extensive campaign for renomination, and as only about a month remains before primary day it will be utterly impossible for me to personally solicit or meet a great many of the voters. Consequently I take, this, the only method available to me, to announce my candidacy and solicit your vote. I want every voter to know and feel that if I had the time and the duties of my office would permit me I would be more than glad, as in my former campaign, to meet each voter personally, and I am making this explanation so that there will be no misunderstanding as to why I cannot visit each voter V.
