The Kansas City sun. (Kansas City, Mo.) 1908-1924, 1915-10-16
BY Walter S. Dickey, of Kansas City,
Missouri, as to the Missouri
Senatorship.

June IL last, over eight hundred
citizens of this, my home city and
county, honored me by presenting the
following petition:
; Recognizing the public service of
Walter S. Dickey, covering a period
of over thirty years in this state, his
unquestioned integrity, his effective
work on behalf of every public enter
prise, and further believing that his
broad experience in the larger bust
ness affairs of the country, coupled
with rare executive ability and genius
for organization, should be secured to
the people of this state, we request
and urge Mr.. Dickey to become a can
didate for the nomination by the Re.
publican Party in Missouri for the
high office of United States Senator,
believing that at this juncture the
state and nation need above all other
things men with these qualifications
This petition evidences the conf.
dences of friends, neighbors and bust.
ness associates in the community
where 1 have spent all the years of
my manhood, married, reared a fam
| lily, established and expanded a manu-.
featuring business, and at the same
time endeavored to- Sexercise to the
fullest the privileges and duties OF
American citizenship.
Born in Ontario, of an Ulster-Scot
father and a mother whose %forebears
came in the Mayflower and fought in
the Revolutionary armies, neverthe.
less my first vote was cast in the
United States and in the state of Mis-
souri,. The fortuitous circumstances
| which brought me to the West and OF
Missouri places me under deep obi
| cations, which l shall never be able
to repay.
While approaching to the fullest ex'
tent the compliment, and while deep
ly grateful for the sentiments ex.
pressed in this position, l have been
also, thoroughly alive to the burdens
the responsibilities and the sacrifices
entailed by a campaign for the sen
atorship, and have felt it necessary to
gravely reflect and carefully consider
before committing myself to an un
d%ertaking fraught with such large pos
sibilities, changing, perhaps the
whole course of my activities.

For many years l have declared it
to be a patriotic duty of busy men TO
take interest in city, county, state and
national affairs, and, when occasion
and the people call, to assume respon-
sibilities of public office. After more
than a third of a century of business
activities as accountant, manufactur
er, importer and exporter, making eX
tensive use of transportation facili
ties and furnishing employment tC
many men, thus affording a broad
acquaintance with our national life

and labor, l feel that if called by the
ballots of fellow citizens, l should be
ready to serve my state and country
at this time, when thoughtful mel

nomination by the Republican part.
for the office of United States senate
and shall gladly accept the help an;
cooperation of my friends every

what their line of work may chance
to be, to improve each day, thereby
bringing it to a higher level. Tow
few of us though, reason along this
line as we go about our daily tasks.
So many who are serving others think
it well enough to round out the al
lotted number of hours each day with
out taking into account the quality of
their work.
Those who are fortunate enough to
have work to do, whether in the
cooks capacity, the school room, or
in the position Of bank president, will
do well to dignity and bring honor to
such work. The question should not
be one Of having thoughts above our
work, but lifting our work above the
level of our greatest thoughts, should
be our highest aim, for the time is
come when persons only who are
thinking and working along such
lines will be chosen to do the worlds
work.
