SIR: Yours of this date notifying me
of my nomination by the Conservative
party of Memphis as their candidate for
Mayor at the approaching election, is
before me, and to be selected, without
solicitation by me, at this crisis as the
standard bearer of the party is, in my
estimation, such n compliment that do
not feel that | have the right to decline,
however it may interfere with my private
interest or preferences.
In accepting this nomination, | am
not unmindful,of the high responsible
ties it involves, for this contest is to de-
eide whether the interests of our fair and
once prosperous city are to be confded
to the intelligent portion of our commu-
nifty, who are permanently interested in
its welfare, or to the ignorant and the
mercenaries who have no abiding place
here or elsewhere.
If elected, the first and leading object
of my administration shall be to place
the city credit at least on par with
that of other cities, with like resources
and liabilities.
In expressing my thanks for this man

TO correct, even in the short time to
elapse between now and the election, by
meeting them at their ward meetings,
and fully making myself and position
known to them.
Thanking you and the convention you
represent for the confidence you have
reposed in me, am, with sentiments of
