a Republican of the N. Y. Tribune
school who voted for Wilson in
1916 and am proud of it; but I
wish to vote for Arthur Capper in
1920 because he is thoroughly quail

"Capper would suit the western
states, and the Socialists would
vote for him" ''His record in the
governors chair is his recommen-

elimination of waste, he is for wo-
mans suffrage, national prohibi-
ton, and better public schools. "
HE is a true champion of prohi-

wrong or dishonest; is well versed
in public affairs and possesses great
executive ability. His efforts would
; be for the best interests of the
masses"
