CALL OF. THE PEOPLE

Congressman Grosvenor Declares
Man Must Accept Nomina-

" Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 15.-No man in
this republic is 50 great that he should
not bow, to- the demands of his fellow
regardless Of circumstances, if the peo-
pie of the country demand it.
No man who has been elected to
the office Of president has moral right
to refuse a reelection if the people de-
mand it, and the argument here made
extends that situation forward so long
as the demand Of the people continues. -
These are the conclusion Of an ar
ticle written by General Charles eros
venor, congressman from the eleventh
district, on the subject, g A Third Term
for the President Fl Z :
z Congressman Grosvenor is careful to
suppress names and even references, but
this, 'concealment only serves to make
the subject the more open for observa-
ton and comment. Mr.. Grosvenor re-
flutes the popular idea that Washington
condemned third terms.
