Hale makes his. o mul announce menl in this issue of The Times ii>' a candidate for re election to the office for the third time, and gives his reasons below for making the race. A s is well known to every \ oter in the county, Mr. H ile is a high toned gentleman; a very deserving young man and has made an ex cellent officer. If is experience has better fitted him to discharge the duties of the office than ever Before and the only thing that can possibly be brought up against him is, that he has held the office a long time. He has held the office quite a while., but no one seems to be against him, for that or any other reason as there are no prospective or announced can didates for the place. See what Mr. Hale has to say below: f 7 To the voters of Dade County : I hereby announce myself as a candidate for re-election (lor the fourth term) to the office of Supe rior Court‘Clerk ami in so doing 1 justify mvself by saying that I pro posed some months ago to my friends if they had some one else o offei for clerk, that 1 would not a candidate for re-election, hut was ready to support (he other asp: idiit. Not a mari with whom I advi.-ed ever -aid for me not to run, hut on the contrary thny have all exjiressed themselves as Fatis hed. At this late hour ojiposition would sound to ( me ' (intelligentfy interpreted) as political scheme, put forth to perfect sorrie secreted plan, or rather to effect , some one else, rather than me. I am assmed tlmt my frfeiids are satisfied with my administrations, therefore 1 feel nodelicacy (though . this be a fourth time) in making this announcement.
