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.
