A notice explains the official ballot, listing seven columns from republican to nonpartisan judicial. It warns voters to study the ballot, understand voting rules, and cast votes for electors under the president’s name. It cautions against over-voting and instructs on marking squares properly.
The letter advises poll workers and voters on marking ballots, supporting a Republican ticket in Pocahontas County and highlights candidates for county attorney, recorder, sheriff, and representative. It notes anticipated strong Harding support in the county, warns against misvotes, and endorses Judge Theophilus while urging fair, informed participation.
The text argues anger weakens both mind and body in any contest whether mental or physical. A cool, smiling approach keeps one protected and effective, while passion exposes flaws and guarantees defeat. It urges readers to regain self control and resist malice.
The article analyzes a Des Moines ministerial circular and John B. Hammond’s tally of Governor candidates showing Harding’s votes. It lists bills he opposed such as the 1909 state marshal bill and 1911 daylight saloon bill, and those he favored like restrictions near military reservations and druggists permits.
