Furthermore, the business men of Wyoming, in all lines of commercial endeavor, know and realize that the many experiences acquired by Robert D. Carey as the} leading spirit in many associations | and enterprises in this Sta has giv-| en to him an ideal of unique execu-| tive ability essential to the proper| ;iy conduct of State affairs; in fact,| qualify him more than any other man| for the important office as Governor | of Wyoming. The fact that all classes feel that Mr. Carey’s election will mean a new spirit and era of progress | in the State’s career in itself justifies his election. | The further fact that Mr. Carey is} a native son has made a profound| impression on the vast majority of voters who feel that the Governor) should be a man of Wyoming experi-| ences and qualifications of the past} that he may all the more intelligently | direct her course in the future. Mr. Carey’s complete platform) calls for a most comparative policy in the State’s program, and is based| on a keen desire on his part to faith- fully serve his native State in which he has resided the past forty years, and where he expects to spend the remaining years of his life. ' " Voters who heretofore have been| negligent of attending primaries in| the past, owing to harvesting de- mands, now realizing the importance | of having good men on the ticket for} the general election in November, are making it a point to attend this year, | and. it is said that Mr. Carey’s ma-! jority will be greatly increased by the larger attendance on August 20. | Mr. Carey’ tatement as to his) stand on prohibition is said by promi- | nent dry leaders to be the most cleat and concise of that made by any can-| didate for public office in Wyoming, which is as follows: “I favor the Constitutional amendment which will be submit- ted to thevoters of Wyoming, and the National amendment which the next Legislature will be called upon to ratify, providing for prohibition of the liquor traffic. If nominated and elected, I shall do all in my power to induce the Legislature to pass laws to make effective prohibi- tion in the State, and if such laws are enacted, I shall make every ef- fort to enforce them.” This exact statement being a part of Mr. Carey’s announcement of his candidacy made February 12, 1918, with a full realization of the absolute necessity of conserving our food and man-power, for moral and economic reasons. A general summary of the State requirements and of. Mr. Carey’s e perience finds him most eminently fitted to fill the high office of Gov- ernor, and all voters fee] his election will fully justify their every faith and confidence when the gubernatorial honor is bestowed upon him. Make it your duty to cast your vote for Robert D. Carey on August 20th.— Douglas Enterprise.
