County Clerk Guy, E. Still of Wood- 39 Chas. B, .Harmsen. stock was in town last Thursday aft-' ernoon. Mrs. Thos. Phalin and Miss Eleanor ROBERT F. MARSHAL^ i.. . ' Candidate for County Judge a ^Men and women olthe county are<coming to know and better understand R. F. Marshall, (of Harvard, Illinois) candidate for County Judge, and as they learn his qualifications they give him their support. The methods adopted by Mr. Marshall in the practice of his profession of endeavoring to adjust differences by settlement instead of promoting litigation, his ability to see both sides of the question instead of taking a biased partisan view; his sincere belief in fair dealing instead of sharjf practice; his close study of the law; all tend to fit him for the performance of any and all of die duties of this office. The County Judgeship is probably the one office in the county which most vitally affects the home. And it is this situation and Mr. Marshal'ls peculiar fitness to deal with the , thing, that we wish to particularly emphasize at this time. The administration of Juvenile Court matters is one of the tenderest spots in a County Judee's court, and calls for his keenest intelligence and most sympathetic judgment. This particularly applies to readjusting children's lives in harmony with the law and wherever possible preventing their development into criminals. ' His keen personal interest and efforts expended for boys and girls should be better known--particularly those of 'teen age who have been unfortunate in their parentage and environment and having ir.ade some beginning wrong step, have needed a wise sympathetic guide to help them. * The law provides that the County Judge may appoint or designate a person of discreet character to serve as probation officer during the pleasure of the court. This officer should be a person of excellent judgment sympathetic heart, and high moral standards, whose life should be an inspiration to those unfortunate youths who are placed in his care. This officer should be selected because of fitness for this Work and not merely as a reward for political service. A universal knowledge that a judge is in sympathy with • law enforcement is in itself a big preventative of the breaking of the law. This is especially true of moonshine dis penstjrs who commercialize law violation for their own personal profit; endangering, and in many instances taking, the lives of their customers, with the poison they distribute. The biggest testimony of Mr. Marshall's attitude on this matter is the fact that one of McHenry County's principal boot leggers is at present housed in the Woodstock jail for selling "hooch" in this county, sentenced to jail by Judge Landis tinder prosecution of Mr. Marshall as city attorney of Harvard. Mr. Marshall not only-brought him to judgment, but also number of others who were implicated in boot .egging at Harvard and vicinity. Those familiar with all the facts know that in doing so he was absolutely impartial, not tipping off or warning any of his friends, or "framing or persecuting his enemies. Marshall stands for e uniform, consistent and impartial enforcement of the law. In the enforcement of law, administration of juvenile court matters and apjjointment of a Probation Officer, Mr. *< Marshall will have a wonderful opportunity to serve our greatest Of American institutions, the Home. His home sympathies are.keenly developed; his home ties are strong; his judgment is true; he is a man of deep conviction and charactcr, and his motives are sincere. We can trust Mr. Marshall's character, ability, judgment and sincerity to properly perform the duties of this office.

For instance, 1 bellev# that personally I put in more hours at work than most men and women, »|y hope is t«Kmak« my Wark constructive and of real value to the entire mass of humanity, not only of our district, but tha entire United States, as well. 8ino« 1 have been a member of congress, what has been popularly called labor has always had a substantial number of reyresentatlve* Thay are among my warm personal friends, and we agree on a grea} many subjects. I hava discussed with them every bill that has been preaented. having directly or Indirectly any Influence on the condltlonsof the laboring men and women of this country, believing that they. Ilka the farmers, cannot prosper unless others tfo Labor has appeared before congress at least five or six, times since 1 have been a ^ppresentatlve, with bills to limit immigration. Every time the matter waa up I voted to limit entry to the United Stetes to persons of physical, mental and moral excellence During the war, howevar. It became apparent that we would have a drastic period of reconstruction to go thru with, an4 I announced publicly that 1 would favor, for a limited period, further restriction of Immigration, realising tha absolute necessity of it In readjusting our affairs with those of the rest of the world. My reason for opposing shutting off Immigration la normal tUnes waa this: Healthy and intelligent immigrants have been a help to this country. They have been producers and production /hakes a nation Tha more that is produced, the mora the Individual will Jiave. Wealth la not money alone. It Is every bit of food all the way from the growing grain In the ground to the flour in <»ur bins; every form of, clothing from the wool on the back of the sheep, and tb« cotton In the growing to the finished clothes on our backs and In our closets, and fuel and shelter, school and other books and all forms of private development, and the public forma of water worka. pavings, sewer* hospitals, and everything that lands to the needs, welfare and happiness of our people. Wealth has not done any harm. Some men who own aome. of it hava occasionally been short sighted enough to attempt to do harm, but in itself it has always been man's bast friend. Without ^wealth there can be no schools,' no churches, no hospitals, no shelter, fuel, clothing or fiod. in fact, there could not be civilisation In this world, and therefore the production of wealth is of the first Importance t" mankind. We have'the largest measure of wealth In thla country because we have the greataat number of producers of all tha olvlllied nations and they have produced more In the aggregate and mora per man. In the hope of still further carrying on the great schema of this government, as ordained by our forefathers in 177«. I did not vote to limit the number of the right sort of immigrants. However, when conditions became confused in the readjustment period. It became apparent that the wisest thing to do was to halt Immigration for a period ^o find "where wa are at." • I have no quarrel with the man, ba ha native born or Immigrant, who acquires wealth by creatine something forjhls fallow1 Americans Taka Henry Ford, for Instance To my knowledge. I have never aeen him or any member of hi* family. I have nev.?r had a dollar invested directly or indirectly with any of the enterprises with which he or any member of hla family ia connected. He ts one of the five or si* rich men in the world. But I do not believe that any one of you will denjr that Mr. Ford haa made llfa happier and more livable for nearly 10- per cent of our people. At the same time he has turned his great constructive genius In the lines that greatly reduced the cost of general production and distribution, and you will agree with me that he haa aold his product cheaper than t any other man in the world, and whataT^r ma« have been hla {alr shara of the benefits which he has conferred, vary few people begrudge him the success (e has made. 1 might go thru with a very long Hat of examplaa and show you tha work lhat each one of these man haa performed In making life cheaper and happier for atl clvilixed mankind and particularly for those who live In this country • * There would ba no means of 'livelihood for tha working men If ~ M>ma one had not aaved aome capital and unlaaa capital would work fOr the man who saved it and produce aomething for him thare would ba no inducement ^o save it. and. if you want the beat Illustration tha modern world has ever produced, let roe call your attention to tie condition of Russia today, where more tlian 2O.0OO.OOO human beings will starve to death this year aimplv because a aet of men were carrylag oat • pat theory that tha people of thla world would work and without the atlmulua of a«H lataroat. Bear la aaind Ruaala rtsHar thaa e*r ewa la ea^aat aa« fertility mt Ita •Oil and In" tha abundance and variety oMts natural resourcea If t*la tremendous loss of life Is averted It must be by the voluntary contributions of the people of the other nations who recognise tha neeaa- •Uy for the stimulus which self interest gives. We have been a long time accumulat;ng wealth in thif country and the process was very slow for the first 256 years. Tha entiM wealth of the United States, including every lot, whether built upon or not. In New York, Chicago and every city, town and village in thla qountry, including every farm with ita buildings, fences, drainaft*. domestic animals and machinery, all the banka, railroads, telephone "Companies, electric and gas companies, all the food, clothing, futl. everything, in fact, amounted to a little less than $1,900 In 1910 Iter . each man. woman and child. All the land in this country, the mines, the forests, snd other natural resources were here, before man appeared on this footHtool. It is. therefore, not a aaving from hla labor, aa* i'f.we deduct the value of these «*e total wealth of this country la. , Iflt) would have been a little less than $1,200 per man, womaa aa# chUd. and less than $38 of this would have been in currency, y We almost doubled the wealth of this country in the 1# yeaia from 1900 to 1910. solely because we, aa a people, produced mora la that period than we ever did In our lives before, or than any other race ever did. -- We have not lost our ability to produce. We are readjusting ot|t» selves to the rest of the world and getting ourselves In shape to flat jttat how much wealth we deatroyed during the war, practically tfea entire production of the world tor four and one-half years. We all lost sigh| of the need for economy that had been the guiding principle of every' successful nation. We are now getting an object lesson u< Just as soon as we are readjusted we will have another period exactly like that from the last part of l»97 to the early part of 1»14. when the impending shadow of a great war temporarily blighted industry. 1 believe a man's work should be done by a man. It means • greater prosperity and a healthier nation. For this reason June 17, 191S, I Introduced the first child labor law ever presented to the house of representee tires of the American congress. The Democratic party controlled that congress and no Republican could possibly get the credit for any suok humane law as :his. It was referred to a committee and peacefully slept until th* end of the congress. The very first day of the next congress l reintroduced that bill Dec. 6. 1915. It was again referred <© a committee. A Democrat introduced a vary similar bill several " months later. We still had a Democratic majority in congreas. Tha Democrat's bill waa taken up and passed, solely for the help that It might give; him. as a Democrat, running for the office of Unitedt States senator from the great Republican state of Pennsylvania. 1 was, however, the first man to present such a bill. I do not regret ^ that my' bill waa not passed. 1 am entirely satisfied that a hill dtt i pass and that such a great help to the real Interests of labor In thb ; country should have been brought about, even If my name waa unfairqr detached from the measure. Other labor legislation haa had my votfe • aa the Federation of Labor'a records show, but none, ia my oplai«%:'.! was of such great power for good as that to keep the child out Of % V grewnup's Job. y1 I am a candidate for renomlnatlon at the Republican primary, April 11, as one interested in the welfare of all classea. I never have ha|t~ a' dollar invested outaide of my district. AH myJinterests are local. |can only prosper as the people of my district prosper. The company; In which my principal intereat lies sells gaa to over 90,000 fan.ill«ia In the Eleventh congressional district. There are a few mlllinnairef^ ^ among Its customers. Practically all of its customers are workinS®; men and women; at leaat (0 per cent of them work with their handjt ., for hourly, daily, weekly or monthly wages. When you jtroaper.
