Either on.e of a half do/ccn gooii average citizens would make a good avi^rage Sheriff. Either one <loing the average Vvork of the ofiice as Y.xdl as the other. At this critical time in the develop ment and higher civilization of our county, the great^’st work that our shcriiT could and should do, is that of standing for law and order without fenr or favor. A man w’ho will execute all of the laws require<i of him by law. A man who has the greatest desire, skiil and nerve to make this stand. Do not give us a man v/ho will hold with the hare nnd run with the hounds. ' The office routine collecting taxes ect., is easy, give us a man who will do the outside work enforcing all the lav-s whieh is required by law of evei’y good sheriff. Let all who desire this office at the hands o fthe citizens of Transylvania county ‘‘speak out in meeting” so that we can see where they stand. C. W. H. THE REBUILDING O TOXAWAY: ERMENT ASSO.
