My record during my term for efficiency and economy and faithful service is slid aside that these self-appointed bosses may run things. I have hoped some strong, capable, efficient farmer-business man would come out and 1 would then have left the field, but none has and 1 now announce myself a candidate, and by adveiw tisements such as this would call your attention to myself, my record, and what I hope to do during' the next four years. I af Four year* ago 1 became • candidate because of the wretched condition and I have aided in reducing the expenses of the senate 60 per cent and its employes have been cut one hnlf. i •nor J»d i 2nd. tion committee and I scrutinized every item, every claim, every proposed expense, and no meeting of this committee was held that I was not present, and 1 saved this state money. 3rd. 1 visited, at my own expanse, most of the penal, charitable and educational institutions of the state which call on the treasury for sixty million dollars during the term of a senator, that 1 might know first hand their real needs.

I have seen senators, occupy their seats less than fifty houra during six months of session. 1 took the opposite course. I never missed one minute from the senate while it was in session during my four years, and no bulldozing, cajolery or intimidation influenced my vote. Forty years ago 1 graduated from a leading land grant agricultural college, and then from a good law school, and then worked for one concern for twenty-five years, and have traveled all over the world. Selling my business and agreeing not to enter manufacturing again for five years. 1 came to my farms in Lake County where 1 have farmed and bred purebied live stock and studied the great questions pertaining to agriculture during the past fourteen years. I feel that 1 am equipped to aid in solving some of the most vital questions that will come before the legislature, viz.: those relating to soil fertility, increased crop production or the world will go hungry, good roads to get these crops to market, farm tenancy, prices of farm commodities, and those great questions relating to labor, collective bargaining, control of public utilities, and progressive recreation for all people.
