“WHO GETS RESULTS A POSITIVE MAN P ' The long and effective record of Honorable F. E. Warren in the United States Senate is the best guarantee as to the future. For many years after the war closes there will be great prob- lems relative to allotments, pensions, insurance, claims, soldiers’ homesteads, as well as the larger aspects of national and international reconstruction. Obviously a man who has been in the United States Senate thirty years is better qualified to help solve these questions than a mere novice in legislation. Why Vote For Warren? | BECAUSE—He is a man of tireless energy, unflagging indus- try. and works night and day for the good of his coun- try and Wyoming. BECAUSE—He works with the same good will and good cheer for the interests of every citizen of Wyoming regardless of that citizen’s political faith, as many a Democrat knows and can testify. BECAUSE—He has been a moving spirit in the livestock in- dustry of the West for nearly a half century. No man in the United States understands better the sheep and wool industry than Senator Warren. BECAUSE—He is equally familiar with the cattle growing bus- iness which has become the business not alone of the big ranches but of the farmer upon the Wyoming homestead. BECAUSE—For years he was chairman of the military com- mittee, which, in view of the rapid growth of the United States and its new position as a world power will give him a place of commanding importance when after-the-war problems are to be solved. BECAUSE—He is a great builder himself and has been in a large measure responsible for the splendid federal postof- fices which have come to Wyoming, all of which have been necessary, and few of which are even now large enough to meet the growth of the state. BECAUSE—As a mere boy he shouldered a musket and went to the front in the Civil war. He knows the trials and hardships of a soldier and is the willing advocate and coun- sellor-without-fee of any worthy citizen who performed service for his country in the Civil war or any other war in which the country has been engaged. There are thou- sands of soldiers and widows of soldiers who have received his assistance. + BECAUSE—He has not only préstige and standing in his neigh- boring states and is thereby enabled to both give and re- ceive assistance in matterspof paramount interest to the West, but he has now and has had always the respect and confidence ‘of every president since he has been in public life. BECAUSE—The influence of Senator Warren’ was acquired by long and faithful service and is a valuable state asset which the people of Wyoming do not propose to throw away. They understand that prestige and position in the United States Senate come from faithful service and long tenure in office, and cannot be transmitted to a successor how- ever able he may be. BECAUSE—It is right to defeat the efforts of the mud-slingers and cheap politicians who, having no material interest in the state themselves, are willing for political purposes to besmirch any man’s reputation and do that which would irretrievably injure the business of the state. BECAUSE—Senator Warren has been a resident of Wyoming for fifty years. What he has accomplished has been thru the old-fashioned process of hard work. All his material interests are in this state, but greater still are his pride and hope for the future of the state; and tothe end that Wyom- ing may take its place in development alongside its more populous neighbors, he is giving the best that is in him. EECAUSE—With his distinguished colleagues he has been in- strumental in passing legislation which brought to Wyom- ing more than ten millions of dollars for the construction of federal irrigation enterprises. The Shoshone project and the Pathfinder project with the Fort Laramie unit are éxamples of what vigilance and industry will do. BECAUSE—Senator Warren was the first man in congress to propose and put through an emergency leave-of-absence law for dry farmers a few years ago when their’ ctops failed in July and August, and under the existing law at that time they. would have been. forced: to remain upon their claims or endanger their titles. Senator Warren's emergency act s¢t the example for all of the liberal leave of absence acts which have followed since. BECAUSE—Senator Warren is not merely a big sheep man, but he is producing crops: by irrigation and dry farming on a large scale. é BECAUSE—He is a big man with big purposes and with no other object in life now than the welfare of the state of Wyom- “ing. f ‘i BECAUSE—In the present great world crisis, when even leading Democrats in the Senate were playing politics or flirting with the pro-Germans and pacifists, Senator Warren stood by the president in all of the important measures affecting the raising of a large army and the fi ing of the war. President Wilson has come to regard him as one of his stand-bys in the upper house. BECAUSE—He voluntarily took himself out of the face for United States Senator in Wyoming and became a candi- ° date only when public sentiment demanded his return to the United States Senate, and even then he refused to con- sider it until Messrs. Hay and Mondell, candidates for the United States Senate, withdrew and requested him to en- ter the race. BECAUSE—The people of Wyoming have confidence in him; a confidence won and merited through successive years of hard work; through his oft demonstrated ability to ob- tain substantial results; because of these reasons and many more which might be named, they will vote for Senator Warren to ‘succeed himself. a The world is entering upon the most important period of all the ages. The United States must take a leading part in rebuilding ‘shattered nations and far-reaching domestic problems will press upon us thick and fast. Men of ability and experience are needed in Washington. DON’T THROW AWAY WARREN’ S THIRTY YEARS IN THE UNITED STATES SENATE, KEEP HIM ON THE JOB UNTIL THE JOB IS FINISHED, .
