Dudley Doolittle

The Fourth Congressional District is represented
by one of the best young men in Kansas, Dudley
Doolittle of Strong City. Mr. Doolittle served the
people of Chase County four years as county attorney;
his careful oversight of the affairs of the
county won for him many friends and made his
name the household work of the people of Chase
County. At the end of his second term as county
attorney a general demand was made that he be
promoted.

The Democratic party nominated hom for Congress
in a dsitrict that was more than 2000 Republican.
He swept the district, carrying seven
out of the ten counties and was elected by a large
majority. He was the people's choice and party
cut but little ice in his election. He is still the
people's choice and they will reward MERIT by
a re-election next November.

We are pleased to note the fact that there are so
many colored voters numbered with the admirers
and supporters of Mr. Doolittle. We hope to
see that support doubled this campaign for he is
friendly to our people and can be relied upon at
all times to do the right thing. Mr. Doolittle is
of one of the best and pioneer families of Kansas.
He is a Kansan of the very best type, therefore
we appeal to our people to vote for him to the
man and woman. You know him, you have tried
him for four years, he has made good and you can't
afford to take chances on a Republican novice who
will promise eveything and do nothing.

Always on Guard.

No one will charge Mr. Doolittle with the slightest
neglect of duty. He is ALWAYS ON GUARD,
always at his post; he is a member of several important
committees and has been a factor in helping
to bring measures. He can be relied upon to line
up on the side where the people's interests are at
stake. He is a young man with a future and we
can well afford to stand by him. We must show
our appreciation for faithful service; we must vote
for our friends and nor for any man merely because
he is a Republican. Bear in mind that the
Republicans will urge upon you to vote for Miller.
They will not give you one good reason, but will
only say that he is a Republican. They can't point
to one single thing he has done in his life time
for the colored people; no, not one. Then why
should you vote for Miller? Then there is a question
whether he lives in the 4th Congressional
District or the 1st. It is claimed that he lives
in Topeka, but be that as it may, why should our
people vote for Miller, who has done nothing in
preference to one who is our friend and who has
made good? Remember that IT'S DOOLITTLE
for CONGRESS; he is our friend and we should
re-elect him.
