I believe in a square deal for every­ body, high or low, rich or poor, in court or oiit of it. 1 believe in protecting to the fullest extent the interests of widows and orphans, in court or out of it.

I believe that the law should be obeyed and enforced and that a judge should know neither friend nor foe in its application. I believe that all public officers should do their duty under the law without fear or favor, and more partic-* ularly if a judge of the county and pro­ bate e6uVts. I believe that a judge should be a man of berve, a student of the law, and fearless in its application, and, in the discharge of the functions of his office, should not be subservient to the will or caprice of any man or set of men. I believe that the probate court should be open at all times as required by law, as it has been during my term of office and as it will be in the future if I am elected. The above is the platform upon which I stand. I respectfully solicit the Republican voters of McHenry county, who can endorse these princi­ ples, to vote for me for county judge at the coming primaries, -Wednesday, September 9, 1914. 1 want to take this opportunity to thank all those who have shown their unbounded kindness to me in the past, and can assure all my friends and my enemies that they wijl find me as cour­ teous to them, unger all circumstances, in the future as I have been in the put. 1 !>• T.
