Having heretofore condltionally consented
to the use of my name for a seat in the

under the belief that the disabilities of
others would be removed, so that all who
have any aspiration for such honors would
have their pretensions properly canvassed;
and being now convinced that no such
mark of hberality and justice will be ex-
tended to our prescribed fellow citizens,
you will please announce me a candidate
to represent the fourth congressional dis
trict in the next Congress of the United
States. j. e. DRoMGooLE.
