Announcements
, To the Voters of the Dublin Judicial ’
Circuit: L
l
I am a candidate for the office of i;
solicitor general of the Dublin judi-'
cial circuit, subject to the result of :
the primary election to be held in ' l
1912. In event of my election I shall 1
strive to discharge the duties of the ■
office rigidly, impartially and faithful- j i
I iy l'
I believe that a solicitor should pros
ecute the rich and the poor, the high I
and low alike. No man’s money, nor
his social or political standing should '
be used to defeat the ends of justice;
-.hat all who violate the law should be
made to endure its penalty.
I am in favor of abolishing the fee
system, placing solicitor generals on
salary, running the courts with dis
patch and economy, strict and due en
forcement of the law, rigid obser
vance of the election law, stamping
out and forever obliterating the use of
liquor and money in elections; a heal
thy sentiment that is the exponent of
the majesty and supremacy of law
and good government.
I respectfully solicit the suffrage
of all the voters of the circuit.
Yours truly,
E. L. STEPHENS.

Danger!
Danger!
NEIGHBOR, IS YOUR LIFE INSURED? YES.
IS YOUR HOUSE AND BARN INSURED? YES.
VERY WELL, THEN, YOU SEEM TO BE TAKING PRECAUTION
AS IF SOMETHING TERRIBLE WAS GOING TO OVERCOME YOU.
STILL THIS DOES NOT SHOW BAD JUDGMENT IN YOU, BUT
RATHER SHOWS THAT YOU AR E A PROGRESSIVE AND SAFE
BUSINESS MAN.
One More Question We
Would Ask You: Is Your
Money Insured?
HAD YOU EVER THOUGHT OF TH^T?
HOW ABOUT THAT MONEY THAT IS LYING BACK IN THE
TRUNK? IS IT INSURED? IF NOT, YOU ARE THE PERSON WE
ARE LOOKING FOR.
WE OFFER YOU A SAFE PLACE TO LEAVE YOUR MONEY
WHERE IT IS INSURED AGAINST LOSS. NOT SIMPLY FROM
FIRE, FROM ROBBERS AND THE LIKE, BUT INSURED AGAINST
LOSS.
THAT WORD, LOSS, COVERS THE WHOLE CATEGORY OF
LOSSES. A FELLOW DOES NOT HAVE TO GET HIS MONEY
BURNED UP TO LOSE, HE DOES NGT EVEN HAVE TO BE HELD
UP AND ROBBED TO LOSE IT. BT OCCASIONALLY HE MAKES A
! BAD LOAN AND LOSES. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE IF HE
LOSES IT?
fF YOU HAVE MONEY THAT IS IDLE AND YOU WANT
INTEREST ON IT, WE WILL TAKE IT AND KEEP IT FOR YOU
AND PAY WOU FIVE PER CENT. INTEREST ON IT.
YOURS FOR SERVICE AND SAFETY. •
