Mclntyre as a candidate for the democratic renominate to the office of assessor of Marion county subject to the democratic primary to be held August 6. Backers and supporters of Mclntyre list the following reasons why Mr. Mclntyre should bo renominated and reelected to the important office he holds: "Mr.

"He has given the assessor's office a thorough and business-like administration. He has given everyone fair and courteous treatment and consideration. His office has been open to everyone, both day and night. "His experience and training has saved Marion county taxpayers money.
