FOR SHERIFF.
To the Voters of Poi.k County:—I
have, for some time, contemplated en
tering the race for Sherilf ot Polk
ftomily. I have withheld a public an
nouncement for a settlement of the
question as to whether or not a white
primary would be hold lor the selection
of county officers, being unabio to buy
votes, and also opposed conscientiously
to vote buying, even if I were able to
buv them. That question being settled,
since nearly all the people of tlie county
who have -expressed their wishes anil
opinions on the subject have pro
nounced in favor of a while primary,
and the Committee ttie people elected
to manage it have called lor a white pri
mary to lie held on August the 15tli for
the selection of county officers, I feel
that there is an open field ami a fair rare
for a!!, whether rich or poor, upon their
merits and qualifications for office. I,
therefore, announce myself a candidate
for the office of Sheriff, subject to the
white primary on the date aboye men
tioned. It 1 am not the nominee of the
white voters of the county for that'of-
fice, I am for the man who is. it elected.
I shall endeavor to show my apprecia
tion of the confidence my feliow-ci'i-
zons repose in me bv making the best
officer in iny power. My Deputies will
bo announced later. J. C. Knxoht.
I hereby announce myself a candidate
for re-election as County Surveyor, sub
ject to the White Primary to lie held
Aug. 15th. Charlie R. Pittman.
Keep your premises well limed.
