To The Democratic
Voters
Of Independence County:

Franklin Perrin, known to many of you as
“Uncle Frank," is now serving you faithfully
and efficiently as County Treasurer.
He desires, through the columns of this paper,
to thank you for your past loyal support, and to
respectfully ask your vote for re-nomination as
Treasurer at the Democratic Primary to be held
Wednesday, March 27, 1912.
Uncle Frank promises only as close attention
to, and as faithful performance of duty in the
future as in the past, as his BEST is all he can
give at any time.
His many friends realize that age and physical
infirmities prevent him from making a personal
canvass of the County, but he is counting on the
same loyal support this coming Primary that he
has received from them in the past.
He assures them their kindness will not go
unappreciated.
