ceived letter from c. G. Heifner. Insurance
Commissioner Of the State OF Washington, on

Most Of the officials Of this State have
observed with much appreciation your initia-
tory efforts in calling a convention Of the
Governors OF the several States OF the Union
to take such steps as may appear advisable to
prevent the formation and continuance OF
the trusts and combinations in restraint
Of trade and competition. We have also
viewed with much chagrn the action OF
the Governor Of this State in refusing to at
tend such convention, either in person or by
IL not in accord with an overwhelmi ne ma Jority
on The fusion party OF this State. and he stands
ahsolutely alone among the state officials.
Il desire to inquire therefore II YOU would
receive come other official to represent the
State who should be chosen and properly ac-
credited bv the other State officials. The ques-
ton Is one of such commanding importance
that the mere within Of one man ought

light before the people nf this country.

OF all people who believe in government by the

OF this state, the Governor alone excepted. de-
sire to assist you in every way possible.
