Gov. McGraw has with unquestioned
positiveness and indisputable candor de-
ciared that he will not convene tho legis-

McGraw has put aside every consideration
personal TO himself and consulted only the
interests Of the people. The public has
heard great deal during the past three
weeks about the governors senatorial
boom, about his aspirations to occupy a
seat in the highest legislative body in
the world, and how tenderly he has
been nursing the sentiment among
the people that would lead up
to that much desired contamination.
