LYNDES L. LATIMER Candidate for Commissioner Southern District.

Does History repeat itself? When Kosciusko County tourt House was erected, it was the largest venture of the County up to that time. Washington Bybee was one of the County Commissioners in charge of that project. This same Mr. Bybee is grandfather of the present Candidate for County Commissioner for the Southern District, Mr. Lyndes Latimer. Mr. Latimer was born, reared, schooled, and has ever since resided on a farm in Franklin Township. In his home community he is known as a substantial and progressive farmer and stock raiser, capable in all affairs of business. But his activities have extended far Outside his home township.

highest ideals. With a profound knowledge of the law he brought to the bench the judicial temperament, a sense of justice and a clear conception of the equities of each case. His decisions are held in the highest regard by the bench and bar of Indiana, and are rarely appealed. His mind is in its full vigor and he is at the very zenith of his powers. His court is a busy one and he is never absent from the discharge of its duties. His retirement would be a distinct and definite loss to Kosciusko County. * * •

ARNOLD SCHULER Candidate for Joint Senator.

I Ji «i ' &

In too many cases, both the voter and the candidate regard a political office as r job. The better view is that of a selection of a public servant. Arnold Schuler, as a candidate for Joint Senator (Kosciusko-Wabash Counties) should be classed under this later view. It has been said that Mr. Schuler does not need the “job. ” Mr. Schuler readily admits that as a “job” he has no interest in that place, but as an opportunity to serve he seeks support. Mr. Schuler is recommended because of his clean, clear cut view of the social responsibility which is placed upon a legislator. Arnold Schuler is a farmer. His early years were devoted to education, as a teacher in grade and High Schools. He was two terms trustee in his own* township, and his record there is still an object of pride in that locality. Mr. and Mrs. Schuler have three grown children, two of whom are college graduates. Members of the Schuler family are found in the profession and as leaders of the communities where they reside. No words here can give an accurate impression otf this candidate. Regarding hfrp/we say “Ask the man who knows him.”
