Will You Do It?
We invite you to turn the searchlight on the life, character and record of Will H. Ade, Farmer, Business Man and Good Citizen, who is making a winning fight to represent the Tenth District in Congress. The election of Will H. Ade will show the farmer boys of this district that farm life does not mean obscurity or political oblivion. Help swell his majority.
Who represents the biggest business in the United States? The Farmer.” I'pon whose success depends the prosperity of the nation? The Farmer. Who feeds the world in times of war and times of peace? The Farmer. Who pays more taxes than any other business? The Farmer. Who has no representation in Congress? The Farmer. Who neither fixes the price on what he sells or what he buys? The Farmer. Who contends with the floods of spring, the drouths of summer, the frosts of autumn, and a Tariff Tinkering Congress in the winter time and still be prosperous? The Farmer. Mr. Farmer, Merchant and Laboring man, do you know there are over 300 LAWYERS in the present Congress of the U. S., while in all the great northern states combined there is but one lone FARMER? Such is the case. This year for the first time in your life you have the opportunity in this district to give the Farmers a representation, by voting for their candidate, Will H. Ade. He stands for a sane Protective Tariff, a Tariff Commission, Anieri-
can markets for American Farmers and Laboring men, and will not be any Party Caucus, hut will stand for any measure that will be for the best interests of a majority of the people of the Tenth District, whether such measure be introduced by Democrat, Republican or Progressive. He believes in placing HUMANITY above the DOLLAR MARK, PATRIOTISM above PARTISANSHIP, PRINCIPLE above POLICY.
Mr. Ade has waged a gallant fight for your interests, such as no other candidate has ever made in this district, speaking in nearly every township of the district to large and appreciative audiences, composed of men and women of all political faith, who have universally voiced their approval of the things for which he stands and openly pledged*- their support to the man who alone dares to proclaim, that if elected he will be guided in all tilings by the standard of RIGHT and WRONG rather than by any PARTY EMBLEM. Now Mr. Voter, it is up to you. You can do'one of two things, vote for a CORPORATION LAWYER or a FARMER.
if you candidly think that a CORPORATION LAWYER can best represent the interests of yourself and your neighbors in this strictly Agricultural and Manufacturing district; don’t vote for Will H. Ade, but if you feel that the FARMERS and BUSINESS MEN of this district are entitled to representation in Congress, you will cast your vote for WILL H. ADE, and if you do, both the old parties, as well as the Progressives, will be looking for FARMERS and BUSINESS men for candidates instead of Corporation Lawyers in 1916, VOTE FOR ADE. Beveridge for United States Senator on State Ballot. William 11. Ade for Congress on County Ballot.
THE FARMER
