DEPUTY J. B. KIRKLAND
ANNOUNCES FOR OFFICE
, JOHNSON CO SHERIFF
it to my opinion that any
candidate for public office
should give the voting pub-
lie all the facta concerning
his qualifications fa such
office.
I, J. B. Kirkland, am a
candidate fa the office of
Johnson County Sheriff, one
of the highest offices in the
county. I
I have been a deputy
sheriff serving this office
• since 1951, a little more
than 13 years. Most of this
time has been spent as .
night deputy, which gave me
a chance to observe the
criminal operation in the
county. In 13 years, I have
come to know the mode of
operation of criminals in
thia area. This makes it
much easier fa any peace
officer to apptehend law- I
breakers.
