CANDIDATE For PROTHOXOTARY
To the Republicans of Wayne
County:
Pursuant to tho requests of my
many friends in tho county and the
general understanding three years
ago that I should again offer myself
as a candidate for the nomination
for Prothonotary at the coming pri
maries, September 30, I would state
that after a short -start by way of an
education in the public schools of
Wayne counly, I completed a course
at the A. M. Chtsbro Seminary in
Monroe county, Now York. My post
graduate course was about thirty
years In the School of hard knocks
as a farmer and lumberman In
Wuyne county. Have met many peo
ple in the varied relations of a busi
ness man and this long experience
has enabled me to meet many whom
1 esteem as tiy friends and gain at
least enough knowledge to appreci
ate the needs and requirements of
my fellowman.
My aim has steadily been to deal
honestly, frankly and fairly with
all and to dearly cherish all of our
country's Institutions, and to en
courage nnd assist every true effort
to maintain and advance them. I
invite the fullest investigation of my
record and with pleasure refer you
to the expression given at the polls
by my home district three years ago
as indicative of the feelings of those
who knp,w me best. Although al
ways a resident and large taxpayer
In Wayne county, I never asked for
office except on the afore mentioned
occasion when I was defeated by M. J
Hanlan who, though opposed to me,
never, to my knowledge, said or did
anything detrimental to me. I
therefore earnestly request your
support and promise If nominated
and elected to faithfully perform the
duties of the office to the very best
of my judgment and ability and In
all things observe the spirit of the
Golden Rule.
Faithfully yours,
WALLACE J. BARNES.
