Mn EDITOR Il notice communication
in last weeks COURIER, signed Union" in
which the writer says, among other things
The object of the article appears to be to
x,on,o,a the interests of Mr. Shannon as a
Eonuressional candidate. Your personal
nnreference for Mr. Shannon is proper; but
In the advocacy of him the article contained
some statements, the drift of which, if they
have any particularly. are ealculoted to dis
credit the Union parry, and others. which
cannot be maintained in point of fact.
Now, in the above remarks, and others.
"Union" seems to be defending the pnion
party. while in reality it is an effort to kill off
Mr. Shannon for he does not deny that all
you have said in fa.or Of Mr.. Shannon is
strictly true, and admits it by his silence on
that portion of your article
Union asks g But are there not in
truth seueral other candidates before the pub
JIG, either Of whom has at least as much leg
islative experience" l answer no. and IN
truth. Mr.. Shannon has been member OF
both branches of our State Legislature, where
he ably represented his constituents; and at
the end of his Congressional term he Will
have been in Congress two years. This is an
experience which neither of the sereTdt as
pirants can claim. Now if Union" is
practical man he will not contend that man
who had honestly and ably filled the ottce Ell
State Treasurer for u term of years. Is not
more capable one for the position than one
who had never had any experience in such
business.

claims or ABILITIES for the pedpie te Prefer MIR.

heartily and earnestly sunpnrt the nominee

him anything, nor that he owes the party
ANYTHING but because all loval and true men
