of his candidacy for the Uaited
States senatorship. The following
paragraphs from his statement are
significant of the lines along which
his campaign will doubtless be waged.
81 have decided to be candidate
for the Office of senator from Yer
States and to ask the support of the
citizens of the state in the Septem-
Der primaries for nomination as the
Republican candidate for the office.
81 am the more ready to take this
step because it will enable me to en-
phasize various issues and public poll
cies for which l have always stood
and still stand. l am influenced in
reaching this decision by my belief
that such decision will not meet the
approval of paid lobbyists, big inter
ests or such newspapers as may sustain
them. These elements have persistent
l. conducted a campaign of misrepre-
sentation against the constructive leg
islation enacted by the general as
sembly of 1912, and my administra-
ton as governor, and for reasons
which appeal to them, stand today
cnergetically and vociferously de-
handing the reelection of the junior
senator.
"My record is an open book. In the
discharge of official duties l may have
erred in judgment, but have never
hesitated on any occasion to do what /
believed to be right. Whatever course
| have pursued / have endeavored al
ways to conserve the greatest good of
the largest number of my fellow citi-
zens.
"My association with the people of
the state has led me to know their
high ideals and inherent love of fair
ness.

rants the assumption that ] will fear

for the common good and that ] will

duties of the high office to which
aspire.

are vital and well defined. Shall or
shall not the welfare of the common
people of today be promoted and pro-
tected by corrective and constructive
legislation?
