STATES MS POSITION,

Hon. Neal Brown, in letter
to the REVIEW editor the first of
the week in regard to his pro-
posed nomination for the office of
governor, says in part: Z" l
think it only fair for me to say
that l cannot, under any circum-
stances, accept the nomination for
governor this fall. l want to do
all | can for the successes OF our
but it will be impossible
for me to accept the nomination
for governor this fall
This statement coming from
Mr.. Brown himself, lays all
doubts as to whether he will be a
candidate or not one side. We
are sorry to learn that he will not
as we believe that he would be the
strongest candidate the democrats
could nominate.
Republican organs have stated
from time to time that Mr.. Brown
would not be candidate. The
Democrat papers, however, have
advocated his candidacy in spite
these predictions.
