BRADLEY GIVES VIE
CANDIDA'
(Political Advertisement.)
Having entered the race for con-!
gress in the third congressional district
I feel that it is dpe the people
of the district that I state the reasons
and motives that actuate me in
offering, and to give my views on
such national issues as are today before
the American people.
Strictly speaking, as between Republicanism
and Democracy, there is
no real issue except that which has
been cooked up by the Republicans
In opposition to the peace treaty and
the league of nations. Of their inconsistency,
to say nothing of their
unreasonable and vindicative hate
of the Presidentj I will have more to
say later in the campaign. Suffice )'
to say here that their opposition was
"conceived in sin and born in iniquiVy."
and for cold calculating infamy
of execution would do credit to his
Satanic majesty himself.
But the Republican party was in
desperate straits, and an issue had
to be made even if at the cost of
personal honor of its leaders and the
sacrifice of American integrity. So
thoroughly has the Democratic party
performed its pledges t?> the people,
In the passage of the Federal'
Rt.-erve Act, the Land Loan Act. in j
the equitable Tariff Act. the income
tax aci and numerous other ad |
that directly afreet the welfare of j
the people that the Republicans,
even with Conscienceless representation
in congress, have not had liiv
courage to attack them on the eve of
a presidential election. I hope to go
into the merits of these various acts
in the course of the Congressionn'
campaign, showing wherein their enactment
was immediately beneficito
the masses. In as much as Mr.
Dominick was not in congress wire
these acts were passed, he has no
record in Congress touching then
we may refer to. |
Mr. Dominick's Becord.
It so happens, however, that the
most momentous question with which
any nation has ever been confronted
came up for consideration in Con-j
gress during Mr. Dominick's incum |

which the people of the third congressional

ly to the record. I Bhall not willfully

but will throw suck lights on the offects

blackness was over our own land.
Pew there were who did not see that 1
! the very independence of our nation
was threatened. Few indeed were
the representatives in congress who
did not see it, and yet Mr. Dominicl: j
did not see it.
On April 5th. 1917 a resolutio
was introduced in Congress, declar-i

There were 373 votes for it and ' |
votes against it Mr.. Dominlck vo'

The Draft Act.
But here again tlj,e great wisdon
of our Presidnt foresaw the all bu
superhuman task, and set in motiof
that agency which wrought a mirrv
cle. He proposed tne siraigiu con
scripion draft act, which passed Cor
gress by a vote of 397 to 24. Mr
Dominick voted "No" with 23 of Jii:
associates.
Viewed in the light of subsequen
events, the impartial selection of ric'
and poor alike, the all but mirac*
lous massing of millions* of men in a]
incredibly short time and the produc
tion of the most effective army tl:n

the espionage act was proposed in
congress, known as the "Gard'

bul uufllcient has been said to
indicate my meaning, when T saw
that Mr. Dominick's votes in Congress
in the most vital period of our
national history were out of accord
with the majority of .his Democrn*'
associates in Congress, and. as I believe,
did not reflect the sentiment of
his home state.
In the oath prescribed for candidates
for Congress and for the United
States senate by our state Democratic
convention, we find the following:
"I will support the political
principles of the Democratic party
during the term of office for which
may be elected and work in acco'* '
with my Democratic associates in
congress on all party questions." '
The purpose of this oath is evident
would certainly call for th-9
most deliberate consideration by :
legislator before casting his vot?
against a majority of his legislative
associates ?n a question that involve
tne very aesuny 01 our nauon.
It as many people believe Mr
DDminick committed serious error of
judgment in the crucial period o!
war, what assurance have we thai
he may not commit equally as serious
errors of judgment in the lp*ri?
lation necessary for reconstruction;
Owing to the upsetting effects of the
war it is possible that our tariff
'nws will have to be seriously revised.
and in a hundred ways the interests
of this country will have *.r
lie safeguarded in treaty relations
Tn as much as Mr. Dominick was ni'
in congress at (he time the tariff lovwas
passed we have no way of know
ing his views thereon, and, se?n :
the light of his votes on war measures.
we may not conclud" w!1'' v
certainty that his views on tariff revision
will he in accord with hi?
Democratic associates in Congress.

There are three vital processes of
human existence,?the digestion of
food, the extraction of nourishment
from it and the elimination of waste.
Poor digestion and assimilation
means failure to derive full nourishment
from food and that In turn often
means impoverished blood, weakness,
anemia, etc. Poor elimination means
an accumulation of waste matter
which poisons the body, lowers vitality,
decreases the power of resistance to
disease and leads to the development
of many serious Ills.
