Mr. John M. Grant, democratic candidate for sheriff, asks your sup port, not on partisan grounds, but because of his past record as a peace officer he feels that he is well qualified to give the people a capable and satis factory administration of the affairs of the office. Having lived all his life in Polk county, everybody knows him, and they know that he is peculiarly and particularly fitted and educated for the important office of sheriff. John M. Grant was born in this county ; he received his education in the schools of the county, and the record of his life is an open book, with not a single act to mar its pages. It is a significant fact that his most ardent supporters In this campaign, regardless of politics, are his boyhood friends and schoolmates. No higher testimonial to a man's real worth could be given. There is no hypocrisy or deceit in John M Grant's make-up. A de scendant of one of Polk County's best pioneer families, honesty, fearlessness and generosity are his priceless in heritance by birth.
