J. C. Gambill, The People's
Candidate For Sheriff.
The office of sheriff is one of
the most important offices in the
county. Without a good sheriff
it is impossible to enforce the
laws. It is not a charitable of-
fice. It takes a man who is will-
ing to get up and go, day or
night, hot or cold, wet or dry,
when he is needed and where he
is reeded.
Experience has taught J, C.
Gamble that night is the best
time to catch crimnals, for most
of the crimes are committed in
the dark. He is in the prime of
life and has had the experience,
and has made a good record.
He made the fight two years
ago against two salaried deputy
sheriffs at $60 each per month
claiming the office could be run
with one deputy, and the office
has been run since with the as-
sistance of one $60 man. A1
though he was defeated, his fight
has saved the taxpayers $720.00
a year, or $1,440.00 for the last
two years, and will save the
same amount annually for years
to come.
He believes in enforcing all the
laws. He is a strong believer in
prohibition, and practices what
he believes. He is a hard work-
ing sober man and in dealing
wi^h the public has made a rec-
ord of treating all men alike, and
if elected you can rest assured
he wi[l have no pets. All people
will be treated alike, regardless
of where they live. You will

him.
A Political Lie.
Since it is being circulated
that R. D. Miller, a candidate at
this time for County Attorney,
defrauded the S. A. Hunt estate
while acting, as attorney there
and the undersigned having act-
ed as a board of arbitrators to
settle all differences between
Mr. Miller and Mrs. Hunt do
hereby state upon our oaths that
any reports of dishonesty or un-
fairness'on Mr. Miller's part are
wholly without foundation; that
no man of any calling or pro-
fession could have been any
fairer and any one hearing this
report should in common honesty
and decency totally disregard it
because the entire matter in ev-
ery respect was adjusted to the
entire satisfaction of all parties
concerned. Mr. Miller without
solicitation went so far to do the
right thing in this estate, which
involved about $10,000, in pro-
perty to send a receipt in full to
Mrs. Hunt by a member of this
committee without first having
received one cent attorney fee
for his services in the estate and
the money received by Mr. Miller
was after he had already receipt-
ed in full for the money and the
payment made wholly a volan-
tary contribution on the part of
Mrs. Hunt and was entirely
satisfactory to her and she so
stated.

(Seal)
I desire to state that the above
board of arbitrators who adjust-
ed the matter therein refered to
consulted the lawyers of this
town and that they found that
the charges I made were in ab-
solute harmony with the charg-
es of other lawyers here, and I
did not locate in the community
to be a scab but tfo maintain the
customs of the people who had
pioneered here. You ask this
board whom they talked with
and they will give you the names
of the lawyers they talked with
and it might surprise you.
At the time I gave the receipt
I did not know that I would get
one cent and the board used it as
they saw fit and I feel that a
man could not be fairer.
R. D. Miller.
During The A. & M. Encampment
We learned that Oklahoma is loosing over
TWO MILLION dollars each year on account of
not taking care of her poultry. We were
also shown by "facts and figures1 that it
pays us to take care of milch cows and other
live-stock.
Two Million Dollars
is a whole lot of money and no doubt Harmon
County is loosing her part of this
