Citizens of Knox County
In coming before the people ofKnox county for the second ternof office I do not desire to do so
without first thanking them forwhat they have already done for
meI have always found friends ineverything I have undertaken inthis county j even when a boand not able to pay my way inschool I found friends who toolme up and helped me throughMay God bless them j I shall always praise them
After I began teaching I foumfriends who procured for me someof the best schools in the countyThey stood by me from year toyear and carried me on
And then beyond the hope ofmy boyhood beyond the dreamsof lIlY youth even at the timewhen misforbun had overtakenme when what little earnings Ihad eathered together had beenconsumed and were exhausted j
when I had been battling between life and death for eightlong months j when the hope andsparkle of my youthful ambition had almost lied away somekindly spirit some kindly influence I know not what somereasons which seemed to me as aninsignificant boy could not possibly exist Wrought upon the mindsand HNlrts of some of tlje goodinenb this coiuuutyiheide of thevacancy thou existing in the of

I have not words to cxpresmy thankfulness to the good peo-
ple of this county From myheart shall over flow one contin-
uous and unbroken stream ofgratitude and praise
I It seems to mo that I havebroad reasons to thank tho pec
pie It seems that anythinshort of honest services and canestly looking after the iutoresof the people as best my abilitwill allow would be gross ingratitude and proving myself 11n
true to the sacred trust they haybestowed upon me With thisview of my position I guaranteto the people that I have doneand will do only that which inmy best judgment I believe tobe right and which moots theapproval of an honest conscience
It seems that the favor Ims
been coming from the people to-
me up to this point There wasno special reasons for my selection the first time I had no
special ability or knowledge ofthe schools or the office I haydone the best I could I have trieito grasp every opportunity foimprove and elevate the schoolsand educational interests I annow acquainted with the ofliciin the fullest degree I knovwhat is needed and know how toproceed to put forth efforts tha t-
will bear fruit for Julie good
of the people I know of evereffort that needs to be madeand how to make it I am famiiiar with all the conditions ofthe county and have a lesson already at my command whiclwill take any new man one ternto learn No man- who is no tacquainted with the peoplewho is not acquainted with tinschool business and who is notfamiliar with the duties of tinoflice of County Superintendemcan take it and run it with thebest results for three or foui
yearsIfI accept an office at the
hands of the people I do it noimerely for the compensation illit but for tug interest I have indoing the work and for the gratification of realizing that my workis benefitingthe people as wellThere is more work that I wouldlike to do than I have boon ableto do in one term Aside from thecompensation and the hon or thatit would be to me forttlie peopleto select me for thellecond termI have work which I want to ac ¬
complish for you believe thatI am able to do more for thepeople in my second term thanany new man could do in hisfirst term I believe my reelec ¬
tion is to the interest of the peo-
ple¬
It has been customary fora County Superintendent to bereelected and I find from thepeople all over the cQunty thutiny chances are flattering
I am criticised by some for notissuing certificates to every ap ¬
plicant but I believe that onlythe qualified should teach ourchildren
Some criticise me for not be-
ing¬
oppressive in taxation Ibelieve in houses sufficient forthe schools They should ieclean healthy warn and com-
fortable but I do not forget3c6noiiiy ami coininon SOIIPO inschoolltouse buildings the fianfo
is should be used by farmers inbuilding their own houses I donot believe it right for nuiySui ¬
perintendent to cause a housewhich is comfortable and seV
vicealjle to bo torn down andbuild a now one out of the hardearned money of the people ofbhe district for the ihero pur-pose

How pleasant thou in thosetrying hours of despair would
have been the hand of one wInis able to comfqrt and consoleLet me ho not misunderstoodLet mo bo frank I may novoibe in public position but littleMy chances to help and relievethe suHcrings of my fellowcitizens may be but few j but whaltime I do serve whenever the
opportunity presents itself forme to relieve some misfortuneto drive away despair and toscatter sunshine and hope whorethere isdarkness and gloom you
will find me actively engaged indoing so j whdther it be friendor foe black or white rich 01
poorIhave some opposition because
of havingpunished those who hudbeen dabblftig in question podling and school selling It is truethat I helped to prosecute themand saw that they were pun-
ished¬
I did it because I believedit to be my duty as an oilicer Ithought it my duty to protectthe children of the county whosecares and interest 1 hold in ill
hands from such intruders Ibelieve the people will stand byme in that effort as the courtshave done
I believe that every candidatefor County Superintendent shouldrun on some principal I thinkho should have certain ends toaccomplish not for himself butfor the people I believe I cangive the people an honest suc¬
cessful administration I thinkI know what the people want aiulneed I believe I can do moretoward tho upbuilding of oureducational interest titan anyother aspirant However I be ¬
