RED CliOUD, NISHKA&IvA, Nov. 1, 1016.
TO THE .VOTEUS OP WntSTEU COUNTY:
As 1 shall 1)0 unable to meet many of you personally, 1 lake this means of speaking to you.
1 have served one le:m as County Attorney and am asking a re-election at your hands.
The office has been conducted by me without the county paying anything for outside
legal assistance.
I have investigated the facts carefully in every ease before filing a complaint in order
that injustice might not be done anyone and to save costs. 1 have filed twenty-five complaints, as
follows :
Assault, o. Bootlegging, A.
Petty Larceny, 1. Horse Stealing, 1.
Malicious Assault, 1. Forgery, 1.
Delinquency, 2. Assault and Rape, 3.
No License, 1. Drunkenness, 1.
Shooting and Prostitution, 4.
The four defendants against whom complaints for shooting and prostitution were made,
weie taken by the United States Court for white slavery. One defendant forfeited bond. The re
mainder of tlio defendants were sentenced to pay fine, jail, penitentiary or paroled. One was sent
to penitentiary for horse stealing and one for forgery, and two were paroled by District Judge on
payment of costs. Others were sentenced to jail and the remainder paid fines.
The records of County Judge and Clerk of District Court and Justices show that the total
fines and costs paid the county by these defendants total about $GG5.00. There has been $350.00 in
fines paid in in bootlegging cases alone. That judgment was rendered against the other defendants
for about $170.00 costs.
In two cases complaints were filed before I came into office. In one of these there was
no sentence or tine, as tneie was no conviction, out- uvuiy uuienuuiu against wnom i meet com
plaint wiis fined, sentenced or paroled, save the ones that the United States Court took and the one
who forfeited bond. The fines and costs collected by the county greatly exceed the costs in the case
where no conviction was had. In fact the fines paid county alone about equal costs in this case.
I also tried the case of Webster County vs. the B. & M. Railroad and won it for the county
in the District Court of Webster County.
I have tried to serve your interest and hope that I merit your support for a second term.
Truly yours,
FRANK J. MUNDAY.
