To the voters of the Tenth Con-
gressional District of Wisconsin:
At the request of many friends
and in accordance with the vote TAX
en- at the conference held at Eau
Claire June 20, 1918, of which due
notice was given by publication in
all the counties Of the district, | will
be candidate for nomination to
Congress on the Republican ticket
from this district at the primary to
be held Sept. 3, 1913,
Among other important questions
pending in Congress are, the traffic
in intoxicating liquors, woman suf-
frage and profteering.
AS to the traffic in Intoxicating
liquors, local option and stringent
laws for its regulation have failed to
prevent its immense wastage of hu-
man energy, moral forces and ma
terial wealth, and believe the only
effective remedy is law prohibiting
its manufacture and sale as a bever-
age.
AS to woman suffrage, all objec-
tons have been fully answered. The
great sacrifices made, the unfinch-
ing loyalty and the indispensable
work of the women of America in
this war entitle them to recognition,
We can do no less than to grant
them the ri hit to participate in the
affairs of government equally with
men.
believe that taking advantage of
war conditions to drive sharp bar
gains. and exact unreasonable profits
borders on disloyalty and that strin-
gent laws should be enacted to pre-
vent such exactions and severely
punish those guilty. Excessive war
profits should be used to defray the
expenses of the war.
| believe the war should be vigor-
ously prosecuted to victorious con-
clusion as speedily as possible. The
great problem now before us is the
winning of the war. 1t takes pre-
cedence over all others. Anything
that may hinder or embarrass the
prosecution of the war or render
war activities less efficient, must
stand aside and give them the right
of way. In this great work one of
our best assets is true loyalty-the
kind not afflicted with indecision or
hesitation.
Steps should be taken to educate
the uniformed and the misinform-
ed and to punish those who are dis
loyal at heart, that we may become
united in the great task before us
which will insure speedy success.
Yours sincerely,
Schuyler G. Gilman.

The Cushman a H. P. is the one Sue
cessful Binder Engine. Thousands are
in use every harvest. Fits any binder.
Engine drives sickle and all machinery.
Since horses have only to pull machine,
two horses will easily handle eft. binder
in heavy grain. In wet harvest Cush-
man Engine saves the crop, as it keeps
sickle going when bull wheel slips.
Very imporfant-The weight of the en-
CINE on the rear of the binder, only 167
lbs, is balanced by the simple cone water
cooler on the front of the binder. This
balancing, anc the water cooling, to pre-
vent overheating on all day runs, are
necessary to successful work in ahot field.
After harvest cushnan engine does all other
sork. Very light weight and easy to move
around, yet runs more steadily than most
heavy engines, because of Throttle Cover
rIor and perfect balance. A H. P. weighs
Z Dnly 100 lbs.; when stripped for binder
only 167 lbs. H. P. only 800 lbs. Also
