EDITION LET’S PUT A REAL MAN ON THE JOB What sort of a man do you want for governor? Is there any sort but one, that is the best MAN tor the job? Does anybody doubt that Bob Hodge is the best MAN sight for the place? he reat final reason why Hodge should be made gover- nor is because HE IS A BIG, SURE ENOUGH MAN. | Never mind about his party label; never mind if in the heat of the fight chances to swallow his label; durn his | platform tforms are but scattered planks of promise bound jtogether with the nails of private ambit to raft some clique jobs. Don't go on pron r theory. You are pick- | in ing a man for a »; take not a stool pigeon, a crafty worker of schemes, a faddist nor a diplomat sET A MAN, a man who will stick on the job every hour of the day |for the square deal; you know you can bet on Bob Hodge 1 . . jdoing about what you would do 1f you had the courage to do it. Put him on the job, he'll do the rest his state has been accustomed to the professional office | holder and his ways so long that it considers a lot of things j essential in a public official and these things are all petty follies jcompared to the big thing, IS THE FELLOW A’ REAL MAN? e “hat’s the test finally In every job; outside of public office st man usually wins because he is hired for what he can DO, not for what he can SAY. A slack jaw, wobbling easily, the inducement that elected men to office all over the country; leave the lip servers at home for a change and stick a man on the job vig There is no real difference between the governor’s work for the people of Washington and his work on any other job. It is only a question of fighting ability and honesty; Hodge has both these qualities And don’t think you are doing Hodge an honer to make his governor. If you do a bulldog an honor when you Jeave {your home under his watch, ad of leaving it to a curled poodle, then you honor Hodge by giving to the best man the best job; otherwise not. Hodge is the sort of a man a man would want to stand by him in a death fight; the sort of a man a woman would want as her protector if she faced big odds; he also is the sort of a man Washington needs for governor Forget all your idéas about dignity, diplomacy, brass braid ,and gilt straps; just consider the governor your chief agent to | save your money, to ward off crooks, to prevent foolish waste; to get the square deal for the plain man. Make a real job out of this place and let go the red tape idea of fake dignity. Do | that and you will of necessity put Bob Hodge on the job, for he is the only live man who is after the place, and one of the \few this state has had the honor and good luck of entertaining jas an office holder. Durn platforms and artificial lines; we want a man who every day is RIGHT, Introducing Governor BOB HODGE.
