WILL NOT ACCEPT.

Despite the earnest solicitation oil
Republicans of every stripe and from
every corner OF Michigan, Hon. Stanley
w. Turner has given his firm refusal to
accepting third nomination for the
Office OF auditor general OF Michigan. Ia
doing this, Mr.. Turner states that while
he Is very grateful for the honor his Re
publican friends would confer, he believes
that two terms in any state office Is a
sufficient tenure OF that Office for any
citizen OF Michigan. lie insists that he
cannot impose upon the good graees oil
his army OF supporters by accepting a
third nomination. This decision ON the
part OF Mr.. Turner Is characteristic oil
the man, but il will remove from The
office OF auditor general man who has
accomplished for the Taxpayers OF the
state OF Michigan that which will cause
hIs name 10 live in the states history
for many years 10 come. His admin
istration OF the affairs Of his Office has
been fair and manly, yet aggressivey
guarding the best interests OF the whole
state without fear or favoritism for the
integral sections thereof, whose financial
transactions with the state have called
forth correction from tile auditors
Office Michigan has never had n better
auditor general; may she ever enjoy his
equal in that important Office.
