The Next President of the United States

What is Senator Harding's outlook upon
life? It is YOUR OWN.
Read these extracts from one of his recent
speeches.
This oovernmsRt Is your government,
not that of somebody who ls placed In Of.
Hce."
"You cIothe US with authority. We are
pleased to execute your will. And one reason
want the Republican party in power once
more 10 because we are responsive to the
will of the people Of the United States and
do not try to tell you that what one man
thinks 10 necessary"
No hallucination there, no idea that Hard
ing was made to rule, and YOU, who read
this newspaper, made to be ruled. or preach
ed at from above by your own elected serv-
ant.
The duty of the American. whether he be
President or simple citizen. is not complicated
In Mr.. Harding's mind. He says:
"As said at tho outset, government 10
a very simple thing, government is only the
regulation of our relationships to one an
other. The governments first task Is the
protection Of the minority against auteoracy,
or the domination of the majority that some-
times foroets tho rights of the minority"
al am preaching the gospel of popular
representative government in the United
States, a government that does not know
any class anywhere In all this Republic" y
In his speeches and in his daily life, run
ming for the Presidency or running his coun-
try newspaper, Senator Harding is just an
everyday American neighbor. This is what
he says, as he bids farewell to a crowd Of
friends:
Ing. AS have said, want you to know me,
and am delighted to know you. We are
going to work together for the good of the
United States, and we are going to hold
America first in all our thoughts and In all
our actions"
Women Voting.
Women especially have reason to con-
graduate themselves on the fact that Senator
Harding will be the next President.
Their sons are taken in war; Their hus-
bands and fathers are taxed to pay for war.
They spend the lonely hours of dreadful
anxiety, while the son is away.
They, above all, are interested in having
for President such a man as Senator Harding.
He does not believe that foreign powers
should be allowed to conscript American boys
for war beyond the seas.
He does not believe that a Foreign Council
should send to America for men and money
to settle wars not Of our making.
Senator Harding does not believe that this
country should be taxed to finance the am
billions or the land greed of foreign nations,
and as he believes, so the earnest men and
women of this country believe.
When you cast your vote for Senator Hard
ing, you will vote for YOUR KIND OF. MAN,
the intelligent, Straightforward, unpretentious
American citizen. President Harding will be
an American President, not an international
President.
You will have in the White House a man
of constructive mind, a plain American with
no dreams of world dominion. but with a set
tied determination to restore normal con-
ditions and normal prosperity to this country.
After the War.
After a war that has destroyed old con-
ditions, cost many lives, squandered many
billions in reckless extravaganza and dis
honesty, and weakened respect for the Con-
s~titution, you need for President a straight
forward, constructive American.
And you will have such a man in the White
House after the 4th of next March. for after
that the President of the United States will
be Warren G.. Harding, your kind of man, one
that you would gladly trust with your own
affairs. and the affairs of your country.
