nomination. He says now, as he has said at
all times, that be Is net snd cannot DO can
didate and that be could not accept nom-
nation even If one were rendered him. He
deemed it immoral for any one to enter pub
lie Office when his health Is unequal TO the
performance of its labors. de can alone
Judge of this, and cannot yield his decision
10 the opinion of others. He
has never anticipated the possibility
of his nomination; has only regarded
the mention of bis name as one Of the coin
cidences which always mark political speou-
lation before the meeting Of the convention.
In reply to the many complimentary allu..
sions to himself, he has always distinctly and
clearly stated his purpose TO withdraw from
nm active part in public affairs, although he
felt deep interest in the success Of the party
to which he was attached.
