If they shall elect me, I shall feel complimented and honored; however, thct shall select somo other per in, I shall abido their action. I ought, perhaps, tn add, that I have neither said nor done au thing at any lime in the past, that contrsvences the purpose I here express, nor have I hesi tated to express myself fully on this sub ject to all persons when called u; on to do so lu a sincere and respectful way. I regret that there are those who seek to injure me, and without nov just cause, by misrepresentation and pcrver sion of facts. I inn sensible of the rec. litude of my intentions and conduct through the wlmlii course of my politi. cal life. I am willing to be j ideed bv the record I hsve made.
