PAGE THREE BILL PLEA FOR VOTES FOR JUDGE DAY To th People of Jackson Oo.t X fctv known Earl Day, Republican candidate tor re-election aa county judge of Jackson county, subject to the primaries to be held tomorrow, for a long time. I have observed his work during the two terms he was a member of the state legislature. While In the legis lature he was highly respected by other members of that body. He was active in behalf of every measure that was for the welfare and betterment of Jackson county and the state of Oregon. Since his appointment as county Judge of Jackson county, I have had close contact and personal observa tion of his conduct of this office. I do not hesitate to state that he la a good business man who has, with other members of the county court, placed Jackson county on a sound financial and economic basis. In his handling of probate matters, which bringa him in close contact with our homes and children, I find him with a sympathetic understanding of their various problems. Earl Day has made good as Judge of Jackson county and when an of ficial Is filling his position in a satls factorv way, good business sense de mands his continuation In office. The people of Jackson county and their Interests- will be best served by his nomination. I bespeak for him your support in the primaries tomorrow. W. J. WARNER. & Medford, May 17.
