FOR U. S. SENATOR

Those who know Walter s. Dickey know that he is, first
Of ALL q patriot and after that a Republican whose devotion
to his party is based on his conviction that it stands for what
il best in Nation and State and who is therefore incapable Of
being swerved from party loyalty by any consideration Of
merely personal ambition or aggrandizement, either for him
self or anybody else. That's the sort of Republican Walter
s. Dickey has always been. He gave the party more than
thirty years of unselfish and forceful service before he be-
came q candidate for fsvors at its hands. Mr.. Dickey is
candidate for the nomination for United States Senator be-
cause assurances have come to him from all parts of the
state that his nomination will strengthen the ticket and help
to guarantee its victory. He considers that no man ought to
be nominated for any office unless he is the strongest man
that can be chosen for that place, because he regards Repub-
1ean victory this year Of more importance than any mans
personal ambition.
