In the July Democratic Primary the voters of
Fayette County will elect a Sheriff. We unquali-
fiedly favor and endorse T. J. (Jim) Flournoy’s can-
didacy for re-election.
He is qualified in every way to continue as sher-
iff of Fayette County, because of his many years of
distinguished service as a peace officer. A* our sher-
iff he has established an enviable and excellent rec-
ord of public service and_ impartial law enforcement.
,We believe that his .administration *x sheriff has re-
flected credit and honor to the people of this county.
No t»ne can deny the fact that Jim's policy and
principles appeal to every man and woman who
places the county’s welfare above sentimental feel*,
ings. Fundamentally, conservative, he stands for a
fair deal to all.
Mr. Flournoy has made no campaign promises;
he stands on his record of public duty well done. He
is without doubt one of the best known and respected
law enforcement officers in Texas. His personal con-
tact and acquaintance with other officers in Texas
makes it a ’cinch” to give us that same feeling of pro-
tection we have enjoyed over a score of years.
Jim has made and kept his pledge to stand guard
against the infiltration of criminal elements into our
midst. In many counties of Texas narcotics (dope)
has been introduced to high school boys and girls,
but not in Fayette County, because Jim Flournoy has
declared war on any criminal element who would de-
stroy our children. We know that he is qualified to
cope with the toughest criminals because his record
proves this to be a fact. Our adjoining counties, the
bankers, the ministers, the businessmen all speak
highly of him and are vitally interested in his re-elec-
tion as our sheriff. The State Sheriffs’ Association
has endorsed him as their next president and he will
be elected to that office in September.
Jim is calm, deliberate, fearless and a man of
the highest character and has a splendid personality.
^Ie is a married plan and knows the value of security,
so do riot fail to re-elect a man'who not only looks
like a “high” SHERIFF, but in reality is every inch
the part. , Let’s not lose this man who is the envy of
every county not so fortunate to be privileged to bal-
lot on a man of such outstanding character and one
so thoroughly qualified in law enforcement. This
IS NOT THE TIME TO CHANGE! REMEMBER,
good sheriffs do not justscome along every day; they
are bom with natural instinct*.
Re-Elect J. J. ‘Jim’ Flournoy
Sheriff of Fayette County
