To The Citizens Of CasweM
Fc!!ow Citizens: .
I was born and raised on a farm
in Caswei! County, my forefathers
having tived and owned land in
the County before and since the
Revoiutionary War. They as
we!! as myseif have fought with
the farmers upon every question
for their betterment and good,
and no one realizes more keen!y
than ! do that Caswe!! is de
pendent upon its farm !ands. 8$
to 90 pet cent of its taxes coming
from this source. My every in
terest is that of a farmer and if
I go to the State Senate I go as
your servant to protect your in
terests. A vote cast by me against
the farmers of this district wou!d
be cast against my own fatuity.
! have stated pubticty that no
indebtedness has been incurred by
Caswe!L County under any act
passed by me. Whatever indebt
edness that has been incurred
w.i- created under State wide
\cts which were passer! try a
: former legislature of which ! was
Hot a member. If etected IshaM
devote my energies in co-opera
tion with your representative, and
County Boards, to secure more
State aid for schoois and roads.
The ctaims of rural counties are
just and I witi battle to the last
that they may continue to make
progress without prohibitive
taxes.
I wit) repea! the CasweH Coun
ty Dog Law, co-operate in pass
ing an act requiring future bond
issues in CasweM County to be
submitted to a vote of the peop!e
—-due regard being had for con
stitution^) requirements and un
foreseen emergencies—a!so a bust
ness tike budget for the Boards
of our County. Sha)! a !awyer
without any rea! estate in the
County, a Kaitroad Agent, Or a
Farmer, represent you? The wit)
of the majority expressed on )une

judgment I wi!) yhcerfutty how
