himself. He added that he was very
ambitious politically and the present
situation offered him an opportunity to

into the senate.

In connection with the above num-
ber Of Governor Bushnells friends are
openly requesting him to resign as gov
ernor and then let Lieutenant Governor
Jones, who would be his successor. ap-
point him senator. Jones would IN

the above statement, if strength is
needed, all newspaper men who have
tried to interview Governor Bushnell
about Hanna's candidacy for the sen.

view Of this fact, it is argued, that II
there was no objection to Hanna, the
governor would speak out.
