GEORGE q. cANNoN's CARD.
His Withdrawal a Factor in the
Caucus Result.

J, Cannon was made certain during the
day by the unequivocal declaration of
his father that he was not a candidate
and could not accept nomination
AN OPEN LETTER.
Salt Lake City Jan H. 1896
My name has been freely used of late
IN connection with the office of United
states Senator for the new State of Utah.
but my position on this subject has been
so well understood by my intimate
friends, | have not thought it necessary
TO say anything concerning ii to the pub
lie. Now, however, / learn that in conse-
quence Of the activity of some of nv
friends urging my qualifications as en-
fitting me to selection for that high
office, there is much uncertainty prevail
ing as to my attitude, and that this IN
party ranks. This, in my view, would DC
most unfortunate; for the Republicans OF
this State. after a well-fought contest,
which was fairly and honorably won,
carried the State, and are fully entitled
TO the fruits OF their great victory. That
party, according to all the rules of hon
orable political usages, ought to elect
the men of its choice 10 represent ii in
the Senate of the United States, and any
division that would prevent this woult,
be deplorable. | cannot, therefore, in the
remotest degree contribute to division b,
allowing my name to appear as a candi-
date for United States Senator. | have
stated this repeatedly to my friends and
| now state it to the public, that there
may be no longer any uncertainty upon
the question. ! desire in this public man
ner to say to all my friends, and espe-
cially to those who have been so Kind as
to express themselves In favor of my
being elected to the United States Senate
that am not candidate for Senator ano
could not accept that office.
