FOR SHERIFF.
To the Voters of Pork County:—!
have, for some time, contemplated en
tering the race for Sheri 11 o/ Polk
county. I have withheld a public an
nouncement for a settlement of the
question as to whether or not a white
primary would he hold lor the selection
of county officers, being unable 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 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 he 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 rich or poor, upon their
merits and qualifications for office. I,
therefore, announce myself a candidate
for the office of Sherilf, subject to the
white primary on the date above men
tioned. II 1 am not the nominee of the
white voters of the county for that of
fice, I am for the man who is. II elected,
I shall endeavor to show my apprecia
tion of the confidence ray fellow-citi
zens repose in me by making the best
officer m my power? My Deputies will
be Messrs. T. C. Hagan and W. A. Hack
ney. J. C. Knight.
FOR TAX RECEIVER.
I take this method of letting the
voters of Polk county know that 1 am a
candidate for the office of Tax Keeeiver
of Polk county. Should I he elected, I
will do my utmost to make the people a
faithful officer, and will very much ap
preciate their help. Election, Wednes
day, Oct. 3d, 1900. Bespectfully,
Em era C. Kingsbery.
FOR TAX COLLECTOR.
Thanking the people of Polk for past
favors, T hereby announce myself a can
didate for re-election as Tax Collector,
and solicit your support.
