P \KT.N KRSHIP OR
CORPORATION
Thinking of going into business
for yourself? Perhaps you andj
Hill Smith ha\e decided to oper-
ate a business together. Should
this lie done as partners or as a
corporation? The answer to this
problem involves many legal1
questions.
Perhaps the most important
factor is that the business or per-
snnal acts of either you or Bill
’may be binding upon the partner- 1
ship. The corporation, however,
can act only through its officers
and agents, and then only within
the limitations granted by the ar-
ticles of incorporation.
A« member of a partnership,
Ixuh you and Bill will be liable
for all of the debts of the busi-,
ness. In the case you have busi-!
ness losses, the creditors of the:
partnership could take all of the,
assets of the partnership, and,
all of the personal assets of eith-'
er you or Bill, or both (except a
I few exempt by lawt, in order to
satisfy partnership debts.
On the other hand, if you form
a corporation the creditors may
go only against the assets of the
corporation so that the most that

I A STATEMENT TO THE
VOTERS OF DEWITT COUNTY
When my announcement pertaining to my candidacy for re-elec-
tion, to the office of Sheriff of DeWitt County, appeared in the local
newspaper a few weeks ago; I mentioned the fact that anyone in poli-
tics was a natural target for rumors and malicious gossip, and untruths.
It has become apparent to me during the past few days that a number
of wild stories concerning me are circulating around the county. Some
of this Is to be expected, as I have often had my judgment questioned,
- and also my actions on a number of occasions; however I have never be-
--fore ever had my honesty questioned. Due to the fact that there are
lfiany people who will believe anything about anyone, as long as it sounds
bad; I feel that I am justified in making the following “xolanation con-
*L ; corning this latest rumor.
I would like to start off by saying that it has been and still is in
almost every law enforcement agency, considered appropriate for the of-
ficers who are in charge to show any person reasonable consideration,
where they feel that it is justified. I have always done this and I shall
continue to do so as long as It is within my power. On many occasions
due to certain conditions and circumstances It has been common prac-
- tice in 99 out of 100 law enforcement agencies to allow some persons who
- have been tried and fined and whom are considered worthy of help, to
pay these fines on a partial payment basis rather than lock them In
jail and have their innocent families suffer; while the county stood the
expense of feeding the prisoner. This procedure has been a common
practice In DeWitt County and many other counties that I know of; and
as far as I know, it is certainly not Illegal.
When I took office from Sheriff Bill Hartman on Jan. I, 1949, he
-* turned over to me at that time money which had been paid him as par-
tial payments on fines. These balances were eventually collected £>y my-
self and turned in to the county. During the time that the late Mr. Nlc
L. Ladner was auditor for DeWitt County, It was his policy for the fines
to be turned In only when they had been collected in full, so as not to
necessitate undue bookkeeping. There 1s certainly nothing Illegal about
this procedure. When the present auditor, Mr. Jerry Koenig took over
his duties, he set about to modernize the operations and bookkeeping
,j5ystems pf most of the county offices, and to set up the county books
* 'under a more streamlined and efficient system. This change over was
accomplished and has proven very successful. After Mr. Koenig had
been county auditor for some time, he suggested to me that I turn In
all of the money that I had on hand as partial payments of fines so that
he could bring the books up to date as nearly as possible. Later on, on a
day convenient to Mr. Koenig, the auditor, Mr. Olps, the county clerk,
and myself, which happened to be a day In October 1955, we got togeth-
_ er. and checked my books and credited the money that I had on
Hand to the various people to whom It was due. This money had been In
my possession, under lock and key, as Sheriff of DeWitt County with re-
ceipts Issued for same. Each and erery penny that was owed to DeWitt
County was turned over to the county, and I was given a receipt
lor same.
— I am guilty of nothing either Illegal or dishonest and I feel that
this rumor Is part of a well planned smear campaign against me. Instiga-
ted by a group of unscrupulous individuals, who are Interested solely In
trying to defeat me politically. I have nothing to hide from anyone and
- tnot only deny that I am guilty of any misconduct of any kind since I
Have been Sheriff of DeWitt County, I also do hereby publicly defy any
parson or group of persons to prove otherwise. I would welcome a Grand
Jury investigation of my actions since I have been In the Sheriff’s Office
I have never known anything that I wanted badly enough to resort to lying
or stealing to obtain lt.( I have always felt and have seen it proven that
jMea will nflrt'hdW up* when the ehlps are down. I also am a firm believer
jjiat the trtlth .vtttk always mike’ Itself known. I honestly don’t believe
Biat. the people of DeWitt County can be blinded by lies perpetrated by
these scandal mongers. I sincerely believe that my many friends In De-
Witt County; who are well acquainted with me will readily admit that re-
gardless of some of my habits I have never been a liar or a thief.
In closing I would like to suggest to these parasites who are
spreading these lies, that they check their stories well for they shall
be given the opportunity to prove them. To my many friends and loyal
supporters, I meiely wish to say .thank you and assure them that their
trust In me has not been misplaced.
I have never since I have been In politics resorted to lies or mud
Swinging, and I do not Intend to do so now. I am of the opinion that If the
attzens of DeWitt County are not satisfied with me as Sheriff, they will
“ most certainly elect someone else in my place without benefit of all
these rumors and unfounded stories concerning me and my family.
