FOR SOLICITOR
1 am a candidate for the office of
Solicitor of the Eighth Judicial
Circuit (comprising the counties of
Abbeville, Greenwood, Laurens and
Newberry) in the coming primary
election, according to the rules of
My Friends:
When I entered the race for Solicitor of the Eighth
Circuit, I did so with the determination to make a
good Solicitor, if elected. All my life, I have worked
and prepared myself thoroughly in the law so that 1
would be qualified to seek this important office. Twenty
years of practice in our Courts have given me the
background and experience to represent all the people
as Solicitor.
Your words of encouragement, your help with
those you know in other counties, and your promise
of support on July 8th have made me more determined
than ever to live up to what you have a right to ex
pect of your Solicitor both as an officer and as a man.
Believing that the Solicitor should hold the respect
of the people, I have tried through my humble efforts
in the Church, Civic Organizations, work with the Boy
Scouts of America, and our Schools to prove myself
acceptable. The moral fibre of any man can be best
judged by the opinions of those among whom he lives.
If I should be elected your Solicitor, I promise to
so conduct myself that you will have no cause to re
gret having supported me.
Please believe me when I say that I am humbly
and sincerely grateful to you for what you hatj&^Che,
and are doing, in my behalf.
(Editorial in The Newberry Observer of June 20)

A Good Man for the Job
One of the campaign placards of C. E. Saint-Amand,
Newberry’s candidate in the race for the solicitorship of
the Eighth Judicial Circuit, reads: “A good man is Saint-
Amand—for Solicitor.” Newberrians know what this means.
They know that he is a man of ability, impeccable charac
ter and untiring energy. They like his pleasing manners and
admire him for his legal abilities. They know he has the
qualifications to fill the office of solicitor, as they have seen
distinct evidence of these qualifications in the twenty years
in which he has practiced his profession.
• However, Mr. Saint-Amand’s abilities extend beyond his
legal qualifications. He has a pleasing nature that makes
friends quickly, and holds them. While his profession keeps
him busy, he is ever ready to help and assist in civic af
fairs. He has served in many civic capacities in the com
munity and has devoted a great deal of time to Scouting,
realizing its worth to the youth of our day.
Newberrians hope that the citizens outside the county
will inquire into the life and abilities of her candidate, who
can and will fulfill faithfully the duties of the office if
elected.
★ .
Neighbors Favor
C. E. Saint-Amand
At the beginning of the campaign, the voters of Ward
No. 6, Newberry, S. C., assembled in the precinct meeting,
endorsed Saint-Amand. Ward 6 is the home precinct, of
C. E. Saint-Amand.
Excerpts from that endorsement: “He is best known to
those of us . . . his neighbors, who have had occasion to
observe his daily life among us . . . will represent the peo
ple of Abbeville, Greenwood, Laurens and Newberry fairly
and justly . . . endorse the candidacy of Mr. Saint-Amand
wholeheartedly . . . and go on record as recommending him
to the voters of all the four counties without reservation.”
Signed, W. W. Whelan, Secretary of Ward 6 Precinct.
