FOR SHERIFF.
To the Voters of Polk County:—!
have, for some time, contemplated en
tering the race for Sheriff of Polk
county. I have withheld a public an
nouncement for a settlement of the
question as to whether or not a white
primary would be held lor the selection
of county officers, being unable to buy
votes, and also opposed conscientiously
to vote buying, even if I were able to
btiv them. That question being settled,
since nearly all the people of the county
who have expressed their wishes and
opinions on the subject have pro
nounced in favor of a white primary,
and the Committee the people elected
to manage it have called lor a white pri
mary to be held on August the 15th for
the selection of county officers, I feel
that there is an open field and a fair race
for all, whether 4 rich or poor, upon tneir
merits and qualifications for office. I,
therefore, announce myself a candidate
for the office ol Sheriff, subject to the
white primary on the date aboye men
tioned. It I am not the nominee of the
white voters of the county for that of
fice, I am for the man who is. 11 elected.
I shall endeavor to show ray apprecia
tion of the confidence my fellow-cPi-!
zens repose in ine by making the best
officer m my power.* My Deputies will
be announced later. J. C. Knight.
