HOWELL § For %e-Eleclion UNITED STATES SENATE Siiiiiiiiittiiiiiiittiiiiitiiiiiiiiiiitiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitifiiiiifiiitiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii I FELLOW CITIZENS The Republican Party in Nebraska presents for your fa vorable consideration these candidates whose names and faces flank this page and ask that you vote for them at the polls November 6th. They solicit your vote solely on the strength of their own record in office and the splendid business record of the party they represent, that they be entrusted with the affairs of state after election November 6th. We address this appeal to you not as the colored race or a separate part of this nation, but as an integral part of the whole American citizenship. By this we acknowledge your merit to equal rights and privileges of all other citizens and that you are vitally affected in whatever manner this great nation of ours with all of i* vast and complex problems of administration is affected. That your interest is its interest and its success your success. In the light of this knowledge, and in an effort to con tinue the most efficient government of both state and nation, the Republican Party has culled out from among millions of men, and marshalled forth for this important task, these men who are of proven ability and long experience. The democrats are making claims that they can satisfy everybody. That party’s head in New York, its tail in j Arkansas, and its body in the solid South, goes forth up and I down the land claiming to be ’he colored man’s friend; offer ing him equal rights and privileges, while the fundamental tenet of their doctrine is to keep forever down the Negro and assert in perpetuity the so-cailed “White Supremacy.” The Republican Party, while acknowledging that it has done many things it ought not to have done, and left undone many things it might have done, makes no such dishonest professions, but promises and strives to do the things which bring the greatest benefits and prosperity to the nation in general and therefore Arthur J. Weaver for GOVERNOR iiimiiiimiiimiiiiiiimmmmiimiimmiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimmiiiiiitiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiii the colored citizens in particular. In the light of this we in vite your careful comparison of the two sets of candidates1 now asking your grant of this great public trust. Ask your self this question: If you had a great business enterprise which required the highest training and technical skill ob tainable to produce success, which set of the presidential candidates would you employ? Mr. Smith comes to you with very meagre educational equipment and no governmental ex perience outside of his own state. Ilis greatest claim to fit ness for the presidency of the United States is his political background. Mr. Hoover, on the other hand, comes to you with the highest technical training—long years of successful business management in his own name, and ten years’ experi ence in the management of the most complex governmental business that this nation has. He has served successfully and continuously under three presidents and undertaken the most difficult tasks of the nation. Now, we ask you, which one of these men YOU would employ for your business? Of course, Hoover! Follow down the list we here present and examine the qualifications of the rest of the candidates. R. B. Howell for U. S. Senator. A man with very much the training of Hoover—a highly skillful engineer. A man active in the pub lic service of state and nation for over a quarter of a century. Willis G. Sears, congressman from the 2nd district, is a lawyer of no mean reputation. He has been THE foremost champion of the needs of his constituency. He has been a fear less, consistent and persistent fighter for the rights and needs of this community and the people at Jarge. Arthur J. Weaver, a successful business man and efficient public servant, is ably fitted for governor of the state. George A. Williams has served two terms as lieutenant governor. Frank Marsh, a successful business man and able official, seeks re-election as secretary of state. L. B. Johnson, a com petent public servant seeks re-election. Dan Swanson, a very familiar name to the people of Nebraska. He is a successful business man and a faithful public servant. W. M. Stebbins, present state treasurer and a very competent public servant, seeks re-election to that office. C. A. Sorensen, a very com petent man, seeks election as attorney general. Charles Ran dall is seeking election to the long term of railway commis sioner. John E. Curtiss seeks election to the short term of rail way commissioner and asks your vote. Likewise, the legisla tive, senatorial and county candidates are all men of proven ability and seek your vote that the tried policies of the Repub lican Party may continue its wise administration of affairs. llllllllllllllllllllllllllltllllllllllimillllllllllllllllllllllHIIIfilllllllllllllUIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIII Charles Curtis ( for VICE-PRESIDENT j iimMiiimmmmimmmmiiimiimmiiiiiiimiimiiimMiuimimmiiiiiiiiimii - LEGISLATIVE CANDIDATES Senatorial CHAS.
