quest that it be published. No one

trne blue republican and we cheerfully
give the communication publication:

watching. l will of course admit my
defeat in the county convention for the
nomination for sheriff. / have always
submitted to the majority of the people
and propose to do SO in this matter
without sacrificing my principles. My

republican ticket this coming election.

curious. Respectfully,

During the term of his service he has
saved hundreds of lives, and brought
assistance to many a storm tossed

years has been one Of fidelity and cOur-
age. We hope that he may live to con-
tinue his good services and celebrate
many another anniversary.

Saturday, by vote of AZ yeas to 80 nays,
Senator Jones's free silver bill which was
introduced as a substitute for the bond
bill which the House passed by majority
of "a votes. The latter measure was
bered, in prompt response to the Presi-
dents special message asking for remedial
legislation to help the financial situation.
There is no probability that the House
will concur in the free silver bill, but even
should this happen it would be promptly
vetoed by President Cleveland. But the
action of the Senate apparently makes GER

can be enacted at this session. The silver

"In view of the resolutions passed by

meeting and of the fact that delegates to

soon to be chosen in this state, l have con-
cluded that some statement from me as to
my wishes and purposes should now be
made to my Indiana friends.
"Hitherto l have declined to speak to
the public on this matter, but scores of
friends to whom have talked and many
scores more to whom have written will
recognize in this expression the substance

has proposed to promote my nomination,
have said: No; there has never been an
hour since left the White House that L
have felt wish to return to it,

voted and faithful and am their grateful
debtor. The Republican party has twice
in national convention given me endorse

has been manifested for my nomination

have been shown me in so many ways, l
am profoundly appreciative.
