ruled out ofthe Democratic Association of
Adams county, The same year he rcluS-
ed to sustain the Iuly nominations Of the
democratic party, and aided by few law
yers, brought out a bond-paying ticket for
Governor, four bond paycrs for Congress-
and aided in establishing the Statesman at
jackson. He also in November voted for
Williams for Governor, and four bond

nation for Pres't, and would not promise 10

nominated for Senator in Congress, when
not more than onc-ienth Of the democratic
