            To the editor:
			 I am curious about the number and statistics I am reading in Mr. 
			Huyett's newspaper ads. The ad claims 835 criminals sent to prison 
			under his position as state's attorney. Illinois is a large state 
			and he has been a state's attorney in Tazewell County also. Is that 
			inflated number a combination of county records? If so, that is 
			irrevelant to Logan County. 
			I would also like to address Mr. Huyett's remarks from the debate 
			with Mr. McIntosh regarding domestic battery arrests and 
			prosecutions in Logan County. I was very amazed that he thinks it's 
			OK to have a bad day and come home and push people around. I'm glad 
			I don't live in his world. 
			Another thing that I keep hearing and wonder its relevance to 
			Logan County is the constant comparisons to Christian County. Quite 
			frankly, who cares. We're concerned voters, concerned about our 
			streets and crime rates compared to our prosecutions and our 
			convictions. 
			My choice for state's attorney is Mike McIntosh. I have known 
			Mike for many years. I know that when he speaks, it is factual and 
			not inflated or self-promoting as needed. 
			Vote McIntosh for honesty, integrity and Logan County family 
			value representation.
