Jackson Sentinel, Maquoketa, Iowa, November 8, 1912

Clarence L. Ely of Maquoketa, a graduate of the Law Department of the State 
University, the private secretary of Congressman I. S. Pepper, is the 
Democratic candidate for County Attorney. His two years in Washington have 
been very valuable as he improved his time to the best advantage possible by 
attending night law school and going through a course at the famous Georgetown 
University, Washington, D. C. Mr. Pepper says Clarence Ely is a studious, 
honorable and capable young man, who has thoroughly equipped himself for the 
practice of law and will make a good county attorney. He was born and reared 
in Maquoketa and graduated from our high school before going to the 
university. He is conducting a clean, manly campaign and has ability as a 
speaker. He has addressed a number of meetings and handles public issues 
without narrow prejudice and those who have heard him speak are satisfied he 
has the qualifications to perform the duties of the office to which he 
aspires. He has practiced law in Maquoketa since 1908, except the time he 
spent at Washington. Your vote for Clarence Ely will be a move in the right 
direction.
