I am a candidate for Congress subject

that as a member of Congress I would
strenuously oppose all extravagant
expenditure of the people’s money and
all unnecessary and burdensome tax

croach upon “states rights” and would
stund unflinchingly and unfalter
ingly against all laws in conflict
with the principle “Equal rights for all
and special privileges to none.”
I believe that this should be In reality
as it is in theory a goverment of the peo
aple, by the people and FOR the people
As your representative I would devote
to the duties of the office my time, my en
ergy and whatever of talent I have and
requests from any citizeu of the District
howevewhumble he might 1h; would ra

If elected I will enter upon the discharge
of my duties without pledge or promise to
