breathe little easier since they have
authentatively learned that Col. HARRY
SKINNER is not candidate. He stated
to CHRONICLE reporter last night that
the personal sacrifice he is making to
serve his constituents was not for the
honor within the gift of the House, but
to assist in such legislation that would
tend towards the ameleratiOn of the de-
pressed condition of the agricultural
and industrial masses. He believes he
can serve the cause better on the floor
than in the chair. AT least he prefers to
prove his faith by his works. and good
works approved are the only honors he
aspires to.
