W. N. McGAHA
CANDIDATE 1 OR
RE ELECTION
— » — -
To the Voters of Precinct No. 3:
In making announcement of m
candidacy for re-election for a second
term to the office of Commissioner t‘
Precinct 3, I wish to say to the voters
that I have done my very best in try-
ing to attend to the duties of tha‘
office during the short time I have
served.
Shortly alter I went into the com-
missioner’s office the Commissioners'.
Court re-financed the county’s road
C. H. HENSON
CANDIDATE FOR
SHERIFF OF DELTA
To the voters of Delta County:
When I made the race for Sheriff
two years ago, I promised the people
1 r f Delta County that if elected I would
do my best to make a good officer,
that I would conduct the affaire of
the office in an honorable manner, as
X have always tried to do in my pri-
vate life, that I would do all I could
! to see that the laws were enforced.
At the same time I promised that I
would never try to have anyone prose-
^d bridge indebtedness and the fin- cuted whom I did not think was guil-
ances are now in much better condi-
tion than they were when I took office.
I have personally put in practical-
ly all my time in seeing after the
road building in my precinct and tak-
ing care of the county’s road machin-
ery. Being a mechanic and having
had much exjrerience in handling this
machinery I have been able to save
the county a great deal of extra ex-
pense in the repair and operation of
this road equipment.
During this first term I have learn-
ed the various roads of the precinct
and the drainage problems in connec-
tion therewith and how to take ad-
vantage in working the same, and I
feel like I can render you better serv-
ice during my second term than I could
during the first should you see fit to
select me.
I will appreciate a continuance of
the support heretofore given me, and
I will give you the best service of
which I am capable if I am honored
with re-election to the commissioner’s
office. Yours truly,
W. N. McGAHA,
Candidate for Second Term.
--
D. T. Miller Candidate
For Commissioner
To the Voters of Precinct 3 and 6:
Voters from all parts of the pre-
cinct have talked to me about making
the race for Commissioner of this pre-
cinct, in the primary this year, and
I have decided to make the race. I
served the people of this precinct for
four years, and in my four years ex-
perience as commissioner of this pre-
cinct I became well acquainted with
the duties of this office and became
thoroughly familiar with the county’s
finances. I learned to take advantage
in working roads and building bridges
in this preoeinct. With this exper-
ience I know that I can enter imme-
diately upon the duties of this office
if elected.
I also promise, if elected, to use
my vote and influence to hold the
tax rate as low as possible, and while
sitting on the board of equalization to
give each property owner 3 fair and
impartial rendition.
If elected I will do my best to treat
all parts of the precinct fairly and
impartially, and try to treat the cit-
izens in the same manner. I am a
strong believer in the road drag, and
promise, if elected, to drag as many
of the roads as the funds will per-
mit.
I expect to see as many of the vot-
ers as possible before the primary end
personally so'ioit your vote. Hoping
you will give me a fair consideration
Years respectfully.
D. T. (Turner) MILLER.

Clarence L. Cates
Is Candidate For
Public Weigher
Mr. Clarence L. Cates announces he
will make the race for Public Weigh-
er of Precinct 1 and 5 in the Demo-
cratic primary.
Mr. Cates has never been before the
public, as lie has never asked for of-
ficial perferment before, but he is well
known to the fanners who patronize
Cooper cotton yard, as he has worked
at this yard for the past five years, do-
ing the laborers work of trucking cot-
ton, He is a man of good repute
and during these yeras has rendered
honest service for his employers.
Five years of experience at the yard
has fitted him for the duties of weigh-
er and he believes he is capable of
rendering the kind of service the pub-
lic is entitled to. Always courteous
and obliging he believes the people
will reward him for his patient years
of toil in caxing for their cotton.
He is a man of family and reides
on a small farm 5 miles east of Coop-
er which he is endeavoring to pay
for.
He is soliciting the support of the
people of these precincts and hopes
to make an active campaign and see
the voters later on.

ty of violating the law. I aLso prom-
ised that, when I could consistently
do so, I would cooperate in every way
possible and work in harmony wuth
all the other officials of the county,
as well as of the city.
While I am aware of the fact that
I have made mistakes and have done
nothing to brag about, I am con-
scious of the fact that I have tried
to keep these promises, having in mind
at all times the one aim to do my
duty as best I knew how.
As is customary, I am asking the
I>eople to elect me to a second term.
In making my announcement I can
promise nothing more than a continu-
ance of the same kind of service that
I have been trying and am still try-
ing to give, except that I feel that
my experience the last two years in
familiarizing myself with the duties
of the office and renewing my ac-
quaintance with the people will be
of much value to me in performing
the duties of the office the next two
years.
After due consideration, if you feel
that my record is such that I am en-
titled to a second term, I will appre-
ciate your support in the coming elec-
tion.
Very sincerely yours,
CHAS H. HENSON.

and in 1918 was elected weigher of
these precincts, which office he held
four years, giving general satisfaction.

There’s just one way to
kill weeds that spread by
means of their roots, and
that is to completely destroy
their underground stems and
roots. You can dig out all the
root network of quack grass,
Canada thistle, sow thistle
and other weeds, bring it all
to the surface to be raked in
piles and burned, if you use a
John Deere Weed Destroyer.
The spring teeth of this de-
stroyer penetrate deep and
dig thoroughly. They are
quickly adjustable to depth
desired, by means of levers.
Because of their shape and
set, they will not skid over
tough root centers or hard
ground.
You’ll get good results with
this machine in destroying
any kind of weeds that rob
your crops of moisture and
plant food.
You’ll like the thorough
way in which it cultivate^ al-
falfa. Once over your fields
with this machine after each
cutting will keep your alfalfa
in a thriving condition and
free from weeds. It is an in-
valuable help in preparing
good seed beds.
Frame is wheel-carried six
inches above ground — good
clearance. Lever adjust-
ments for penetration are
convenient and easily han-
dled. Machine runs steadily
in the most difficult condi-
tions. Does not clog.

lomplications, hastens recovery
Never has a Chevrolet car won greater
praise for its appearance than the new
Chevrolet Six. Its new Fisher bodies
reveal in every detail the artistry that
has made the Fisher name famous
throughout the motor car world. In
beauty of line and color, in balance
and harmony of design, they represent
one of the greatest style triumphs in
Fisher history. Upholsteries are richer
and more durable. The instrument
panel carries a new and more attrac-
tive grouping of the control instru-
ments. Seats are wider and deeper.
In fact, not a single feature has been
overlooked that would
add to the comfort and ..... ......... .... .

THE GREATEST
IN UWVaOLL-T UlSTOaV
In addition to its new beauty, the new
ChevTolet Six represents a remarkable
advance in every phase of perform-
ance. Its Improved s ix-cylinder valve-
in-head engine has been increased to
50 horsepower—giving faster acceler-
ation, and greater reserve power.
Steering has been made safer and easier.
Four Lovejoy hydraulic shockabsor hers
provide exceptional riding comfort.
Fully enclosed, internal-expanding,
weather-proof brakes give positive
braking control. And numerous struc-
tural improvements add to the car’s
dependability, endurance and long
life. Come in today
