Gen. TAYLOR and the Presidency.

1t will be seen by the following letter from Gen.
TAYLOR that those who understood that his letter to
Capt. Allison was the last which he would write
on the subject of the Presidency, have msunder-
stood his intention. He has not only written the
letter below, but in it he has cordially approved of
the political sentiments I" contained in the pre-
amble and resolutions - passed by the meeting at
Baltimore. We have not the proceedings of that
meeting at hand, but shall look them up and publish
Them Another feature of the letter deserves notice
that is that the proceedings have caused him lively
pleasure and awakened feelings of gratitude, be-
cause the nomination was 90 free from party action
and the eraction Of pledges from himself'" twill
be observed from this that he persists in the mante
nance of his independent position and his disregard
of all party nominations.
BATON ROUGE, La, May l, 1913.
Dear Sir have by this days mail received a
copy (dupicate) of your letter of March 81, with
an enclosed copy of the proceedings of meeting
held by the citizens of Baltimore, who are friendly
to my election to the Presidency.
The political sentiments embraced in the pre-
amble and resolutions adopted at that meeting, /
rejoice to say, meet with my cordial assent and APP
prevail. No movements in any part OF the country,
having the object to offer testimonials OF honor and
respect towards myself, or to advocate my election
to the Presidency, have caused to me more lively
pleasure or demand more gratitude.
You will please do me the favor to make known
my acknowledgements to the citizens of Baltimore
for the unexpected and unmerrited honors they
have conferred upon me, in such manner and terms
as YOU may deem most proper.
They are obligations which, should the votes OF
the country be cast in my favor, it will most surely
be my endeavor to redeem to themselves and to all
the people of our country.
| must be permitted to add that as they have
with so much confidence placed my name in nomi-
nation before the country on their own response
bility, free from party action and the exaction of
pledges from myself, shall serve them strictly as
a constitutional and not party President lin
the event already alluded to)-and as my ability
will permit.
Please accept my thanks for the kind sentiments
you have in forwarding the proceedings of the
meeting, been pleased to express to me.
With sentiments of cordial respect and regard,
your most obedent servant, Z. TAYLOR.
