Frwl CiinmitiiKH AiiHirrrcil. ' BUOKKN liow , NobOut.,009 Fred OutnnungH , Esq. , Cooloyton , Neb , DitAit Bui : Your typo written totter dated Sept , 29 1899 and "poBt-raarkod" ( : Brokou Bow Oct. Oth 1899 , reached j ' f mo on this last date. A reply mnyj ' not seem necessary now , OB it IB gonuerallv known , and also pub lished in the RUPUIIMOAN Sept. SJbth , that on auuouut of the duties of the oflioo whioh must bo perfonuod by mo porHonally , uvnn if I had a oiork wluuli I hnvo not I oould not make a campaign this fall , if I desired to do HO. Yet , as general reports and news paper atntmonts , ao not always hnvo the Hanoliou of candidates , and ns a matter of re- Bpuot , I would say that I deem it to bo my duly , luo eamo as any other man hired by the people1 , to attend to the business for which I was employed , and to not spend my time trying to persuade them to re new my contract for two years. If I attend to thcEo duties I shall have no time to devote to public speak ing , should I think it proper for judicial candidates to participate therein. Besides this , I see from your letter that wo do not agree upon the iesuo had I the time and inclination to accept your proposi tion , asl bolive the iisuo , ao far as you and 1 are concerned , is not , as you ay , what wo may or may not belivo , about national affairs , but which ono of us , including Mr. Wnrriugton , whom you seem to forget , would best subserve the in terest of the people of Ouster co unty's judge when elected. Now all this may bo an "old foggy" idea , yet I bolivo in it , and all parties preach it , and I further belivo that the people are better judges of this question thnn wo are , and that to attempt to advise them thereon , would bo egotistical , and I have neither the time or inclination to attempt to do so. But the duties 1 ewe to the 'county as County Judge , require my time and personal attention to such an extent , that for this reason , if nothing else , I am forced to refuse 1o accept your proposition to discuss national issue with you , or an y other , for that matter.
