He states -that should he enter the rnee, it will be by reason of the fact that duty fnJIs him to do this, aa be Li'l'tvea that the time has eome for 'lie people of' thSs atate to be represented by a man of rirogresaive views. He will declare jn thas bcgluning, aa be has for ninny years iist, that he is for woman's suffrage, and this is counted upon to give hi in great auuitionai airongin, as it is almost certain mat women win vote in both fhe June primaries, and the eeneral eUtttioni next fall. ..""According to friends of Mr, Brooks, be ia the logical man for the position nt tills time, aa with him nominated by the Democrats, the strong advocacy of this amendment by the Republicans would lose much of its weight, ai, in the opinion of hia admirers, he stands head stud shoulders above any other man in tbe public eye ia this state ai as advo cate mf votea for women. ; - -.- Ilia friends atate that personal reas ona would not incline him to think of now, has a lucrative law practice' and. ! entirely1 content, and he states himself that he has long since lost any desire fo- public office for personal reasons, and that if he is a candidate fer the nomination, it wiH be frem a nrm eon v let ion that he ia needed for service to the country, and that it is his plain duty to go before tha people and aak their auffrage.
