STATEMENT Of PRINCIPLES
TO THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS OF
NEVADA:
Pressing official duties make it i'm
possible and improper for me to absent
myself from my Office to campaign the
State in the interest of my W candi.
dacy prior to the primary election.
Under the circumstances I believe it
sufficient to state briefly the principles
upon which I seek endorsement and re-
nomination at your hands.
If elected
~ I will continue to make my Of
fee the medium for the fullest co-opera-
ton by the State with all war works of
the United States, keeping in mind the
just responsibilities and interests of Ne
vada as an integral part of that Union.
(2) I will continue to use all the
power of my Office to suppress disloyalty
as typifed by the I. w. W.. by prof.
teers and by those who fail or neglect to
discharge their duties as citizens and
| residents.
(3) I will continue to fight for a wise,
practical and equitable plan Of water
| right determination, in the firm convic-
ton that such a determination once ef-
fected, will provide the solution of a
majority of our land and colonization
problems.
~ I will continue my endeavor to
| secure such a division of war burdens
and expenditures as may be adequate
for the Nations need, while just to the
people and industries of Nevada as well
as those of the several States.
(5) I will continue to adhear to my
belief, expressed owe a period of years,
in the economic and patriotic necessity
and e~xpediency of National and State
prohibition.
(6) I will continue to hold myself
independent and aloof from those sinis-
ter partisan and bipartisan political
mechanisms and organizations which
exist to serve private and selfish rather
than public interests.
AS a guide to my probable future
course I call attention to the substantial
accomplishments of this administration
during the past three and one-half years
with special reference to:
The scientific reorganization of the
States financial system;
The holding Of our governmental costs
in wartime to the lowest percentage in
crease of any of the States;
The enormously bettered condition of
the State treasury;
The generous and sympathetic consid-
GRAFTON of the problems of labor;
The liberal and modern support of
education and educational reforms; and
The broad consideration and material
accomplishments of the administration
respecting the essential needs of our in
dustries.
l have consistently endeavored and,
1 believe, with measurable success, to
maintain, both at home and abroad, the
traditional reputation of Nevada as a
progressive, patriotic and intelligent
commonwealth, and I will continue to
do so.
This does not appear to me to be the
time for more than a mere appeal to the
intelligence Of the Democratic voters of
Nevada. I believe that all voters every
where are fully awake in this greatest
OF all National crises to the need for
thoughtful action in selecting public
servants and that you will weigh care
fully the records and qualifications
OF those candidates seeking important
executive offices.
If l am chosen as the nominee of the
party and am selected, I will strive to
do as well as I have done in the past.
II your Judgment be adverse 1 will
c~heerfully accept it and continue to
work for what I conscientiously believe
to be the best interests of the State.
