A CAkD-TO THE VOTERS OF ALIEN
N ANDRIA CITY AMI COUNTY =
Though l WIS announced as desiring the nomi-
nation for the Legislature long before any one
supposed Mr. Febrey would b. candidate, or
the county would urge Il claim, l ut once wrote,
on seeing his own card, and sent to both papers
= card Withdrawing my name, which would
have been published April 10TH but J withheld
it ut MIR. NJ ushbach's request until the clrcum,
stances attending Mr. Febreys candidacy and
the claims of the county could be sscertaned by
him. 1t was my purpose to withdraw, nsca'l:e'
though | knew the motives of those tn THIS city
who were urging Mr.. tebrey's nomination., yet
| knew him u be so good q man that was will
ing to step back. But in Difference to the wishes
of friends who are not satisfied with the manner
of his nomination, remain d candidate and
submit. only 20 the decision of primary etec
tion. My reasons are: That the pTetensc of the
county's title to this half term (Which was
strangely ignored last falD is m re sham to
cheat her of aDhots term in the next election,
in the interest Of Il small set who assume TO
requisite all elections in Alexandria, and that
Mr.. Fe5rey was persuaded to come out by two
or three men, acting without authority OF the
party, and With the purpose stated snail
take care to let the people know these facts, %nd
if the Conservative voters see them, as do,
they will, if worthy of Independence OF scnt
ment stamp such action with their condemns
lion. l shall if elected admit the county:
claim in the next election. and retire myGe!f, II
necessary TO assert it. If beaten by Mr. FebTey
in u primary election, shall feel that the city
and county will have u most worthy Representa-
tive, but | visa to know l An beaten fairly 0y
the people, ana not to be crowded out by Il riIg
on Il false pretence.
