We know Mr. McKinney has nftde a splendid member of the Board, and know that if we should lose Mr. McKinney's pervice a? County Commissioner, that Madi son County would lose one of its most valuable assets on the Board, and would be. detrimeneal to the interest of the taxpayers of Madi son County.

We only ask that Mr. McKinney be elected as Chairman of the Board in view of his fitness and wide ex perience on the Board, and in do ing so we feel the Tax Payers will have made no mistake.
