SAFETY WITH PFENNIG.

Il =
Kenosha people who believe in safe, sane,
business-like and intelligent government will
take keen satisfaction in the action of the Re-
pubhcan conference at Elkhorn which named
Charles H. Pfennig to make the race for con-
gresham of the First Wisconsin district.
The nomination of Mr.. Pfennig comes as a
recognition of merit and an ability to serve the
people of the district with intelligence rather
than as a combination of political chichanery.
Few men are better known in Kenosha county
and none are more highly respected by the peo-
pie of the county.
Mr.. Pfennig is an ideal candidate for the
support of the men and women who believe IN
the common-sense craftsmanship OF CALVIN
Coolidge and the men and women who desire
to see Republican principles prevail at WASH
ington. He is man who can be counted on
to be intelligently Republican in his actions
and to give intelligent support to the measures
proposed by the Republican party. He has
never been EXCEPTIONALLY partisan or fractional
and he has always applied the rule OF common
sense and common honesty to all the services
which he has given to the people along varied
lines.
He knows the rank and file of the people.
The silver spoon philosophy is absent from
his makeup and whatever success he has in
life has come as result of his efforts and the
intelligent use of his own ability.
He has served and his service for the people
is the best possible indication of his qualltlca-
tions to go to congress to represent the people.
With Pfennig in congress the people OF the
first district will be assured that the majority
of the district will be properly represented and
that he will go there to represent them rather
than to feather his nest for some future polite
al job or to get some one lined up to secure his
election for another term
Pfennig does not come to the people as an
untried candidate. He has served with dis
tinction He was one of the best sheritfs ever
in charge of that office in Kenosha county. AS
mayor of Kenosha he was progressive and
panstal1ng showing a Willingness to recog-
nize the rights of all the people and to serve
all equally WELL He went to the lower house of
the legislature from Kenosha county and was
known as one of the members of that body to
give intelligent rather than political consid-
Grafton to bills proposed for the advancement
OF the state. In a political career extending
over considerable period of years his integ-
rity has never been questioned nor his honesty
in either private of political life challenged.
He is man of business and he knows that
the first district needs support for it's great bus
mess development. Much of his business has
been with the rank and file of the workers of
Kenosha and he knows the needs of this class
of the people and has always been thoughtful
Of it.
He knows the problems of the farmer be-
cause he has been actively associated with the
farmers of Kenosha county during his entire
life
His life has been an open book to the people
of Kenosha county and there are no smeared
pages or torn out leaves. Mr.. Pfennig comes
before the people as candidate for office with
nothing in his life which he wants to canceal
and nothing of which he is ashamed.
He is in the very. prime Of life, full of enthus-
iasm and full of willingness to serve. He has
no entangling alliances with the organizations
which have sought to break up organized gov
ernment and his patriotic loyalty to his coun-
try and to his home district comes as an en-
couraging thing in his candidacy
Mr.. Pfennig cannot makesthis race unassist-
ed He is not one of the old-style spellsbinders.
His services have always been represented in
work rather than talk, and the first district
needs just such man to represent it in con-
gress.
The home county should give to Mr.. Pfennig
the most loyal support in this nationwide. effort
to return to government of sane business
like legislation and in the effort to get away
from government by politics and hysteria.
