To the American voters: Greeting
The Roosevelt Second Term league by
the votes of the people present for
your patriotic consideration it's nomi-
nees for president and vice president
respectively, Theodore Roosevelt of
New York and Joseph w. Folk, COVER
nor of Missouri.
These men have been selected upon
the advice of thousands of loyal citi-
zens in 46 states of the union. Their
records, political and civil. are open
and honest and unimpeachable Theo
dore Roosevelt has demonstrated his
valorous and undertaking devotion to
the interests of all the American peo
pie. regardless of class or position, oI
political affiliation, or geographical 10
cation, and has enshrined himself in
their hearts.
Governor Folk is the noblest type in
contemporaneous public life. In his
respective executive sphere he has
shown the ability and leonine courage
of the president. Governor Folks con
ception of public duty contains no twi
light zone in which the wealthy Grim
inals who violate our state and fedora
lstatutes can find refuge from Prose
cution.
That this non-partisan, American
ticket will commend itself to all intel
ligent and decent men who have tn
