To the Voters Of the 4th Congressional District:
GENTLEMEN AS the Spring Term of the Courts
on, many of you will begin to feel some in
terest relative to the next Congressional election in
this District and inquiries will arise to who will
be- rather acho shall be the next candidate? From
the position which occupied in the last campaign
it may be proper and due to you well just
to myself to make known, thus early, my individual
views in regard to the matter
do not desire to review the circumstances or to
specify the which, in my judgment, contrOll-
ed the last election and led to defeat i'll District
so largely Democratic. The campaign was lengthy
ami thorough-thc result is well Known and its effects
are already somewhat realized. 10 those OF you
who gave your support | take this occasion to
return my sincere thanks for such manifesto
ton of your partality and confidence, and to those
of you who thought proper to vote against me, as
large majority of you did, can say of truth with
very few eXceptions) that have complaints to
utter. ] believe that every ought to exercise
the right of suffrage like freeman and cast his bal
lot for the of his choice 1t is true defeat went
hard for the time, but soon passion subsidized
and reason resumed her throne felt that there
to rejoice Gefeat for in everyepoint of
view the result 10 IS best for In confirmation OF
this truth desire state that do not wish or in
tend to again thrust myself forward for Congressional
honOrs; and indeed under circumstances could
| consent, at this time, to become candidate. L
know that the representative of free, intelligent
and patriotic people has much for congratu-
laton, and in many respects and under some Cir
cumstanccS the position is very desirable one but
prefer, FOR the present, to give my undivided at
tenton to my profession and let some Of my friends,
better qualified than myself, take the responsible
ties and reap the honors of being orcpresentatve.
In conclusion allow me to suggest the importance
of holding primary meetings in the different Coun-
ties at early day to appoint Delegates to meet in
Convention at some suitable time and place for the
purpose of nominating good and true Democrat
the candidate to represent this District in the next
Congress. 1t will be my pleasure to cooperate with
you in the matter and to give the nominee my hear
ty support. am, very respectfully,

DISTRICT Convection. The necessity of calling a
Convention of the Democratic party of this Con-
gressional District to nominate candidate to rep
resent in the next Congress Of the United States,
is so apparent that deem it entirely needless to
present to the intelligent citizens of arren,
gument in its favor. The fact that We have been,
for the last two years virtually beret of representa-
ton in the popular branch of the National Legisa
ture-nay more, that the wishes of the people the
District have been utterly disregarded and set at
open defiance by member who possesses scarcely
principle in common with large majority of its
citizens-outweighs all the arguments that could
possibly be adduced in opposition the holding of
a Convention, and mperatively demands this meas
of harmony at the hands of party. The
people have already decided in favor of Convention
The Democratic papers Of the District are unanimous
in the expression of the same sentiment 1t is
cessary in order to reconcile personal preferences
and to harmonic conflicting opinions, if any exist
in regard to the nomination. We have in the Dis
trict many able and worthy Democrats and tri
ed men, from whom to select candidate for the
approaching contest who will bear the noble flag of
Democracy to triumphant victory.
= The period is at hand when the Democrats of War
rem should bestow upon this subject their serious
attention, and take prompt and efficient steps to
full and fair representation in the Convention
We desire to follow, not to lead in this important
matter, Our duty is to bring the subject before the
people of the county, and to await their action in
the premises. This we do, however, with sincere
desire, that an early day may be suggested fur
primary meeting of the Democracy 1t is, already
high time that the subject agitated by the people;
and our columns are open to friends for any
communications which they may think proper to
write tending to promote harmony and concert Of
action. When the Convention shall have met, and
the nomination shall have been made, shall cheer
fully lend humble efforts in support of the cleo
ton of the Democratic nominee and to do all in
power TO unite the Democracy of the District, as
man, in securing triumphant majority for our can
ddate WarrentOR Nea0s.
