Strong Ticket All Of Payne County Is Supporting
A
Holbrook a Souare Shower
olbrook a Square Shooter
Asking For Sheriff's Office
No braggart is Arthur Holbrook
substantial Perkins farmer and
business man an '89er and a
Equare-shooter Arthur Holbrook
tells the people frankly that he
believes he is as well qualified for
sheriff of Payne county as any
man who has run for the first
time
""rhe people of Payne county
have had some mighty good sher-
iffs" Holbrook says "It is my am-
bition to make them as good a
sheriff as they have ever had and
I shall make every effort to realize
that ambition if elected Novem-
ber 3"
Arthur Holbrook has reason
believe that he is as well fitted for
sheriff as any candidate who
ever came before the people for
the first term He served the peo-
ple of the third commissioner dis-
trict as coun4 commissioner for
eight years
As county commissioner the
Perkins man became well familiar
with the office he now seeks Ev-
ery penny spent by the sheriff's
office during that period of time
was checked through the commis-
sioner's office: every meal for
prisoners every expenditure for
raids " every traveling expense
of the office of sheriff was a fam-
iliar item to the board of county
commissioners
Holbrook is not a man to con-
fine himself to his own individual
affairs As county commissioner
Iv' sometimes accompanied the
sheriff and deputies on raids as-
sisting them bearing arms and he
has several times accompanied the
officers to state penitentiary with
convicts The routine of the job
he now seeks was learned by him
in previous years and that experi-
ence would stand him in good
stead if elected
What sort of a man is Arthur
Holbrook? The best place to find
the answer to that question is in
his home district When Holbrook
ran for the nomination as sheriff
he was opposed by three candi-
dates He made no general cam-
paign "If the people of my par-
ty want me all right" he said
They did want him—and by
such an overwhelming majority
that he needed no run-off elec-
tion And the Perkins folks the
entire third district flooded tho

ARTHUR HOLBROOK
Candidate for Sheriff
ballot boxes with votes for Hol-
brook He was a landslide winner
at home That is the place to
Judge a man Why was this true?
Probably because they remember-
ed his record as their commission-
er Probably because they remem-
bered the times they had gone to
Arthur Holbrook in hard times and
ivked for help and had been han-
ded a ham or a load of feed They
say Arthur Holbrook could have
been a rich man if be had not
been so generous with his people
Perhaps he is richer in friendship
Holbrook promises - strict en-
forcement of the law points to his
almost life-long residence in
Payne county reminds that he
knows every road from long ser-
vice as a commissioner and pre-
sents himself without alliance as
a man who will prosecute the dut-
ies of office with all the vigor and
fairness at his command And
those who know Arthur Holbrook
will add that he will make a fear-
less officer and an intelligent one
lie asks your vote as the surest
guarantee that Payne county will
carry on the line of strong sher-
iffs that it has established He is
the man to whom the people are
turning in this campaign
he taught five years in one-room
schools and then married
Quitting the teaching profession
he entered the confectionery bui-
iness in Cushing and remained
there seven years Selling out the
business he returned to the farm
and farmed seven years While
farming he received a call to
teach Harmony school two miles
southeast of Cushing He took
over the principalship of this four-
teacher school and taught there
until this fall a period of nine
years This fall he W itS made
principal of Central school

of the state's outstanding rural
schools and it became so during

Government whether it be national state or county gov-
ernment will rise no higher than the candidates the people !
elect to offices in that govcrnment The only way to improve
the handling of the people's government is for the people to
elect candidates who are bctter fitted for office through their
experience their success in their own affairs and their will-
ingness to give the pcople 100 per cent service when elected
Without speaking one word of disparagement against
their opponents the candidates represented in this supplemen-
tary sheet have made every effort to carry a clean strenuous
campa:gn this summer and fall Since it obviously is impos-
sible for them to see each of the 12000 voters of Payne coun-
ty personally they take this method of presenting their can-
didacy to the voters They ask that you study this sheet hop-
ing that it will enable the voters to make a better evaluation
of their worth as candidates
Many who have heard these men present' their reasons
for asking support and many who know these men personally
through business and social associaton w:th them are insist-
ing that these men form the strongest group of candidates!
who have sought office in Payne county in many years This
is be:ng said without any indictment upon former officers of
the county Many are the strong officeholders who have
helped build Payne county in the years that have passed But
helped build Payne county in the years that have passed liut
it is believed by many that this is the strongest group from
top to bottom that has come out in many seasons and asked
for the people's support Whether that be an over-statement
or not the candidates in due modesty would hesitate to say
but the growing sentiment for this group of men being ex-
'
pressed daily has inspired them to do ther best to make good

are
to keep their campaign clea and above partisan politics

They are not urging you to "vote 'er straight" They

urging the voters to give careful study to the candidates

both tickets and then vote as intelligent men and NVOnlen for!
the candidates they deem best fitted That has been Payne '

county's way in the p On
past and it Nvill be Payne county's way i

Much sentiment for these men has been expressed From

the old Cherokee Strip line in the north to the Sac and Fox !
country across the county and from the western county line to r

country across the county and from the western county line to

"Any time a good man files for office in Payne county

Three Outstanding Men Ask Places
On Board of County Commissioners
Albright McConkey Broyles
Know Needs of Payne County
The three COMM issioner districts
of Payne county will name a board
of county commissioners in Nov-
ember Thc nominees presented herein
come to the people with qualifica-
tions so indisputably Ntrong that
support is being gathered to them
on all sides
From the Third district com-
monly called the Perkins district
comes Harry G Albright seeking
a second term as county commis-
shiner Such uniform support is
being given him among his neigh-
bors of the third district that his
return to the office seems assured
The reason for this is not hard
to find He hai inade an out-
standing official with the knack
of making the county dollars go
as far as possible He has been
progressive but not to the extent
of unwarranted liberality
Albright is a typical Payne
county Pioneer He knows his
district from end to end its needs
its desires and what it is entitled
to Albright says "The county
commissioner in a way has al' t
taken the place of the old family
doctor Folks come to us for Just
about everything We have to be
sympathetic to their needs but
firm iu the practice of treating
all alike I have done my best to
do this I can't promise to try
harder to make the third district
a good commissioner but I think
my experience will enable me to
make a better conunissioner in
the coining term if I am returned
to office"
Leslie E McConkey is the can-
didate for commissioner from the
Second district or the Stillwater
district He has successfully con-
ducted a farm southeast of Still-
water and a hatchery business in
Stillwater for a number of years
His interests therefore are both
urban and rural He realizes the
scope of the Job he is asking
Much of his support is streng-
thened by the fact that he is the
type of progressive citizen who
should enter politics if politics are
potitie1
p national state or county troy-
mi11 hnq PICIIrOgA011 FrOnl I
1
saying about Payne county i s
to be raised to a higher plane
McConkey makes not the slightest
attack upon his opponent lie is
running entirely upon his own
merits He is vigorous successful
competent and familiar with the
Job before him if elected
McConkey brings new and vig-
orous blood to the body of county
officials He has ideas on road
working that are born of long use
of the roads He believes the
district Ehould make sure that it
sets eight hours of work for eight
hours of pay on its road mainten-
ance jobs He has promised no
jobs nor will he to gain the office
lie offers a square deal to the tax-
payers of the district An ener-
getie man McConkey has taken
time to engage in Stillwater's civic
activities is a member of Lions
club Chamber of Commerce and
other organizations within the
city as well as holding high rank
among poultry associations and

"The job of county clerk to my
way of thinking calls for a work-
ing man who has background suf-
ficient to fit him for the clerk-
ship" That is how W S Grahani
of Cushing candidate for county
clerk describes hitt idea of what it
takes to make a good county
The county clerk must devote
his entire time to his job and be
should be a man of pleasing per-
sonality willing and eager to
meet the requests' of the public
with whom he will come daily in
contact He should be experienc-
ed in the keeping of records
W S Graham considered those
qualifications and decided ' lie
could meet them "Heretofore"
he says "when I wanted a job and
decided to apply for it I had but
to see one man and impress my
ability upon him He said yes or
he said no and that was all there
was to it But in seeking this Job
I must ask the people of all of
Payne county for the place and
that is Something new to me I
am no orator but I am a worker"
That is the way Graham is making
his campaign talks and if one
may judge by the reaction of
those who have heard Graham
they are of the opinion that a wor-
ker is what is wanted
Graham is 40 years of age and
Oklahoma has been his home most
of that time He has lived in
Cushing for many years except-
ing for a period when the oil com-
pany for which he worked trans-
ferred him to the field
He is married and has a daugh-
ter aged 12 years When the
World war broke out Graham an-
swered the call to the colors
As a Legionnaire he has won
the respect of his Crashing budd'es
to such an extent that they elect-
ed him commander of his post He
has been one of the "wheel-horses"
In Cushing civic projects
Jobs that he believes have tJest
fitted him for the office tic seeks
were the position he held as
oil company employe and a period
of school teaching which he com-
pleted before entering the oil bus-
iness As a business man held in high
esteem in his home community he
comes before the people asking
county office He has made a
tireless campaign and friends have
been quick to aid him Each day
of the campaign it begins to look

A Fighting County Attorney
Is Needed
George R Taylor candidate for
county attorney comes before the
people of Payne county with a re-
cord behind him of fourteen years
of law practice in Payne county
He is not asking that the county
take him an inexperienced attor-
ney and allow him to gain a
knowledge of the law while serv-
ing in public office and drawing
public pay
In his fourteen years of practice
in Cushing and Stillwater Taylor
has gained his experience the
hard way—in the school of hard
1 knocks pitted against the best
civil and criminal lawyers the
county possesses This experieme
he offers as the best reason that
he should be named to the office
he seeks
Taylor's principal belief is that
Payne county needs a fighter in
the attorney's office a man who
dhearselelsaerlotefdphriivsatreepcultieantitesn and an
defense of private clients and d a
attorney free from alliances
law firms He promises that be
will serve the people without dis-

that there s all be no "crown

GEORGE R TAYLOR
County Attorney Candidate
In 'flat case until he knows he
has a case He believes 'many civil
matters can be decided by friendly
arbitration and not taken before
the courts He expects to guard
the civil rights of the county
elected and not devote all his time
to criminal prosecution He
pledges to protect the state's wit-
nesses from persecution when
they are on the stand He believes
much time Is wasted in 'inexperi-
enced presentation of the 'county'S
cases and that such waste of time
is a waste of money for court and
