 PREsCorr May 2s, 1892 | Editor CitiSen :--I notice in your issue of h. | 18th instant ihat some miserable scrihbler vri, | ing from Sanford, says that have been by let. ter urging upon prominent citizens of that See. ton, my peculiar fitness for Congressona hon. ors." Now, in justice to myself and to the many | friends who have urged me 10 be candidate for Delegate at the ensuing election, l must say that said statement is untrue. | have written but one letter with reference to the election to anyone in Pima county, aud in iha, letter l did not speak of having any "pecalAr fitness" for the position. That letter was written | to a friend in Sanford whom had the plrasarr of meeting in Prescott before said letter could have arrived at its destination. 1t seems, there. | fore, that some person at Sanford has taken ihe liberty to open private letter m the absence of | the gentleman to whom 1t addressed, and given a garbled account of it's contents 10 pub | lie journal. Tlie letter referred to was written before it was known or supposed that Governor | Mccormick would be candidate fer reelection, as he told the people during the last cauyass that | he would not be n candidate for that position again. For myself alone, I would not have | noticed this matter at all But in justice to my many friends who had long aud pers;s ently urged me to be n candidate, 1 hope you will publish this correction. l am not an office seeker. l ! am one of those who believe that "the onicr should seek the man-Dot the man the office" | All men who know me, know that have always been one of the strongest supporters of Governor Mccormick, and l believe it to he ihe almost unanimous sentiment of the people that he ls bet. ter qualified to represent our interests at Wash ington than any other man. Respectfully yours. | VIM J. BERRY.
