For Clerk
I hereby announce myself inde
pendent candidate for Clerk of the
Superior Court. I solicit tlio sup
port of every voter and if elected I
promise to serve the people faith
fully and impartially. Holding that
to serve the people is the llrst duty
of every public official, if elected, f
shall strive at all times to make the
office serve the majority and not the
minority.
DEED BIRD.
Having received strong solicita
tion from many good Democrats ami
citizens generally, I have decided to
announce as a candidate for Clerk of
Superior Court of Walker county.
1 believe in (lie good old demo
crat'r doctrine that the expressed
wishes of a majority of the people
should lie respected in the public
affair* of the county, and earnestly
ii«k the support of every voter.
When an official has received the
endorsement of a majority of the
people, I regard it as tiis duty to
respect the rights and interests of a
majority by performing his full
duty impartially under the law; and
if he fails td do so, he has no just
claim to their further support.
If elected, I promise to faithfully
perform the duties of the office im
partially, and without favor to any
das.:, person nr faction. Ft. will be
my pleasure, as well as duty, to
serve all parlies with equal prompt
nos and fidelity.
