Candidate for the Republican Nomi-
nation for United States Sena-
ator August 10Th.

William H. Hill, of Detroit, who
has tossed his hat into the ring for
the nomination for United States
Senator from Michigan on the Re-
publican ticket, has a political mes
sage for the people that it would be
we'll to heed.
Mr.. Hill's long experience in the
administration of large business at
fairs has given him a new conception
Of the viewpoint and the duties OF
Office.
A close study Of government at
fairs has convinced him that there is
but one course to pursue in a Fed
eral office That is, to base every act
on the fact that running govern
ment is a business proposition for
business men of experience and judg-
ment.
He believes that the government of
the United States should be regarded
as great corporation in which the
100000 people of this country are
the stockholders; and that the Senate
and the House of Representative con-
stitute the Board Of Directors" Of
this corporation
He believes that the members of
the board" should represent all the
people all the time and not a favored
few; and that the people should al
ways be able to tell where their "di-
rectors" stand.
He asked: Have the people Of
Michigan, the past few years, been
able to tell where their senators stood,
or where to find them?"
Mr.. Hill is we'll fitted for the Office
he seeks and to realize his conception
of it's duties. Years of arduous train
ing in the business world, wide travel
in this and foreign countries and close
study Of history and government have
given him exceptional equipment for
the task. Thirty-onc years Of his life
have been spent in Detroit where he
is a successful manufacturing drug
gist, conducting one of the largest
concerns OF its kind in the country.
A Good Platform to Stand Onto
Act On.
Here are the all-inclusive and pro-
gressive principles on which William
II. Hill is basing his campaign:
1000 Americanism and national Sc
curity.
Improvement Of labor conditions.
Protection of women and children.
Conservation of national resources
A stable foundation for honorable
enterprise.
Rescuing commerce from uncer-
tainty.
Establishing a non-partisan tariff
commission whose work shall be con-
Quoted on scientific and efficient lines.
Mr. Hill urges you to come out at
the primaries August Doth. 1t is only
by exercising your privileges at the
Primaries that you can secure a new
