ARTHUR CAPPER
FOR GOVERNOR

We dPPca1 70 Inc citizens
OF Kansas without regard to party
amhations, to support Arthur Capper,
the Republican nominee for Governor.
We make this appeal in the nrm be-
lief that the people Of Kansas are
truly DESTROYS OF securing the most
emcient and the most economical ad-
ministration OF public affairs.
Arthur Capper has never held pub
lie Office and has NO entangling allan
ces with party cliques or factions. He
has no political debts to pay; he il
under obligations to no special inter
ests, no factions, no boss, but will
take the office with clean hands and
q clear conscience, free to serve the
best interests of the whole state with
out favoritism and without prejudice.
He is \ native Kansan who has
shown his ability to handle large at
fairs, by developing and owning at
the age of Al, one of the largest pub
fishing houses in the entire country,
giving regular employment to more
than 500 people.
He looks upon the Governor Of the
state as the Business Manager of the
states affairs, and he can be depend
ed upon to bring to the states service
the same ability, the same efficiency,
the same methods of economy, the
same principles OF square dealing ano
justice, the same rugged honesty,
which has made his own business so
successful.
AS an editor and publisher he has
always stood for the rights of the peo-
pie and has opposed the injustices
which arise from Special Privileges.
As Governor he will make aggressive
war upon all forms of inef1ciency,
graft and political corruption, whether
found within his own party or outside
OF it.
He stands committed to the lowest
taxes consistent with efficient public
service in a growing state; for the
elimination OF graft in all its forms;
for keeping out the hangers-on, the
jobbers and the political leeches who
feed from the put,ic treasury; for
abolishing the Regarding system in
! all county and state offices; for the
elimination of all useless officials,
clerks and commissions; for the re-
duction of excessive salaries and ex-
trsvagant appropriations; for less
technically and more Justice in the
courts; for legislative acts free from
| loop-holes and jokers;. for an inherit
n1ce tax exemption Of not less than
$25, 900; for tie printing of school
books by the state an5 distribution
at cost; for strict and impartial en-
forcement of all laws-in short for
clean and straight policy in handling
the business Of the state so az to
effect the greatest good to the great
est number.
Arthur Capper will not use the Of
nee as Governor as . stepping stone
to another ONCE He will not attempt
to build up a personal machine He
Is making no revolutionary promises:
but no man has higher ideals OF the
public service; no man has greater
ability fer the performing OF the tasks
that confront Kansas today, and no
man can do more to give Kansas .
clean, progressive state government
He viii respect his oath Of once to
the letter; he will be on the job six
days In the week-and You can do
pend upon him

people; you believe in economy in
public affairs; II you believe in keep
