That as State's Attorney he omitted to make any of his annual reports to our county court, of cash received, as then required by our state law. 3. That his own figures, in the reports rendered by him as State's, Attorney to our Circuit Court show he went out Qf office ow­ ing our school fund the sum of 9556.00, which has never been paid. Every voter and taxpayer should remeiiH ber that up to this time Mr. Lumley has remained silent as to whether he stands with or against the farmers and taxpayers on the following important issues of this* campaign: 1. As to compelling our present State'I Attorney to disgorge the thousands of dol­ lars of school money that he is now wrong*- fully withholding from our taxpayers. 2. As to our taxpayers bearing the un­ necessary burden of a paid assistant state's •attorney at a salary of $1200.00 per year, ij! jjuidition to the $3900.00 per year paid to our state's attorney. With this record Mr. Lumley is now ask­ ing the voters to nominate him for State's Attorney. Comments on the above from, me are entirely imnecessary. * Everyone knows I earnestly supported Mr. Lumley for State's Attorney in 1908, but, like many others, I did not know bis record in relation to our school funds until the same was first published by D.
