A great wrong has been committed against us. See to it that men are chosen'for these positions, who will not repeat this wrong. Because of the serious charges and convictions against our congressmen, and of the approaching election, we are being ob­ served very closely by all our sister states, and the men whom we select in our April primaries and our June elec­ tions for seats in the upper and lower house of Congress and also for our legislative body, but especially our Congressmen and Senators, will be scrutinized more closely than ever be­ fore. Our honor, intelligence, integ­ rity and good judgment will be judged and gauged largely by the men we send to the National Capital and it be­ hooves us to act wisely at this time. For the love of our state, of our peo­ ple, our homes and ourselves, do not let anyone dazzle your eyes or obscure your vision by postal card pledges, circular letters or printed appeals. Let us study the history of the past for the purpose of wisely directing our acts in the present and future and se­ lect for our congressmen and legislators only men of known character and ability.
