A. II. Hepburn, the Republican nominee for
Congressman at-large for the State of New
York, has addressed the following letter to
Hon, J. F. Smith, chairman of the Republican
State Central Committee;
DEAR SIR: Having received no formal notice
of my nomination for the Office OF Congressman
at-large by the recent Republican convention, L
address this communication to you. 1t IS quite
apparent that owing to the unfortunate cir
cumstanCes that have come to light since the
adjournment of the convention, very large
portion Of the Republicans of the State are not
disposed to accept its conclusions as an author
itative uttcrance ofthe party. Nothing should
be left undone to secure the unity and harmony
of the party and don't think it right to enter
upon the canvass without an earnest effort in
that direction. 1t seems to me that for the
purpose Of attaining such result all questions
should be submitted anew to the representa-
tives Of the party assembled for such purpose,
and in furtherance of that object, while fully
appreciating the very high compliment paid
me by the convention, and returning my sin
ccre thanks for the same, | deem it my duty
to acquaint you with my declination Of said
nomination.
