"On February 21, after most careful con
sideration, I announced my candidacy for
the United States senate and I notified my
friends that 1 would bo a candidate for
that position and not for the position I now
hold. This announcement was made after
mature consideration. The assurances that
have come to me by letter and by the fftato
press of support nro so general nnd wide
spread that 1 am free to bcllovo I took tho
right course. You arc authorized to stato
that I nm not now and shall not under nny
consideration whatever be a candidate for

accept such nomination If tendered. I am a
candidate In good faith for tho United
State senate. No man has tbo authority to
make tho statement that I shall bo a candi
date for congress, and whoever has done so
has sought to do so to my prejudice and
absolutely to falsify nnd misrepresent. I
want to make this statement as emphatic as
possible. I would be nshamed of myself to
take any other courso after having mado
my announcement."
