of the two unicameral legislatures,
lie is not only capable, but a man
of highest integrity and honesty and
hua many friends both at home and
throughout the state. Whether or
not he will consider becoming a can
didate, like President Roosevelt, he
has not yet spoken on the subject.

that might tesult from such fool
hardy participation.
