Albert J. Beveridge. senior United
States senator from Indiana VINO is up
for endorsement at the polls in the
1910 campaign, is notably strong WIFI
the masses because he mas stood con
statently for the public welfare during
his entire career
ON his public record and in the
cleanliness OF mis- private living, Sena-
tor Bevaridga appeals directly TO rhe
millions who believe In the square d'al'
justice and reason.
All classes of people admire the
man who under test, shows the depth
and strength of his convictions or
right and wrong. The average man
believes in the courageous pubic man
who tries to be right rather tnan 20
be powerful. The plain citizen cleaves
instlnctively to the publicist VINO tries

that the behest of politicians and sell
fish interests.
work in the national congress that
commands the approval of common
sense.
The farmer and the laboring man
are united in giving praise to Sena-
tor Beverage and endor sement to his
course.
The business man and the profess
stonaI classes ara heartily in accor
with Senator Beveridge and his ef-
forts, for the plain and simple rea-
son that the horse sense of his states
rnansnip has a compelling force.
II Senator Beveridge had not sue
,ceeded, personally, in winning the es-
TEEN of tne people of Indiana, he sun
would be in a position to gain tns.r
approval OF ais public acts. Given per-
sonal popularity, sound achievement,
earnest service and public confidence,
Senator Beverage appears to be IN
a fair way to sweep Indiana by a vote
sufficient to emphasize the states ap-
preciation of her favorfte son.
The wage earners of Indiana look
upon Senator Beverage as their good
friend. The wage earners of the ma
ton regard Senator Beveridge as fair
minded. whole hearted champion Of
the rights of man, and by that token
they go to him and depend upon nim
as an advocate In the national lesis-
lature when such tremendous ques-
eight hour day. the various life pro-
tecting measures and the laborer
compensation issue are up for discus
sion.
Calls il World Question.
Senator Beveridge says: THE Ia
Dor question not only IS above pa--
ty, even above nation-it Is a world
question"
In his debate with w j. Bryan
Senator Beveridge said:
Certain classes in this country live
too generously for their own good
Other classes live too meanly for tleiI
own good. What 10 needed Is the
striking of that balance which means
the largest human welfare in body,
mind and soul"
The view which comprenends man
kind and which sees the purpose that
works tirelessly for the progress oil
humanity towards equity and nealtH-
full busy contentment is expressed in
a recent utterance by Senator Bev-
srfdge in which ne says:
Here are millions of human be-
ings. Not one of these millions ask
ed 10 be born, yet born we were with
out our consent. Not one of US asks
to die, yet die we must without our
consent. And in the brief space be-
tween birth and death all Of us except
the favored few nave a hard enough
time. What can be done to make the
load of these millions lighter? That Is
can be done to help the American peo-
pie give an example to all the world
OF the progress of civilization and -lu-
man contentment? That is what pub
lie life means to me-"
This eloquent statement OF an earn
est life purpose apnaals with peculiar
force to Indiana people, and especial
~ Is this true of Indiana working
men. For they know that back Of
the declaration is sincerity and grea
hearted determination we'll as
lplendid ability to DO.
These words from Senator Bever-
ldge's lips are more than mere words
They live in his acts and stand fortl
in his deeds. He not only has spoken
achieved large good fo- the common
man. He not only sympatnizes with
the wage Garner but ne works witlou
resting and drives forward with al
mis- magnificent energy and effective
ness to further the cause of human
Justice
