high honor in the nations past. 1t is

course, rally behind Judge Prouty.
Moreover | not only hope, but believe
that good and far-sighted citizens gen
orally, whether republicans or demo-
Gratis, viii also support him. The is
sue raised by his candidacy is one of
much more than mere party signiii-
cance. 1t should represent the union
OF all good, plain citizens who believe
in a square deal for big man and lit
tie man alike, a square deal for the
world of business, and square deal
for the world of labor. The farmer

worker, each and all, will find in
Judge Prou.y that spirit of intelli-
gent and scrupulous adherence to the
right, and of vision in seeing and
striving for the real and ultimate
interest Of the country, which it is of
such great importance to our people
to see developed in our public ser
