Has Written To the Burlington
Free Press Announcing His
Decision.
HELD OFFICE s YEARS

Burlington, April 5.-The following
letter from the Hon L Bacon, State
treasurer, is self explanatory, and
will add to the interest of the politica
campaign in Vermont.
Mr. Bacons letter follows;
White River Junction, April 4, 1906.
To the Editor of the Free Press
"In 1893, during my canvass for the
State treasurership, urged emphati-
cally that in my opinion four terms
lor eight years. was long enough for
any incumbent to hold office; that to
insure the interest Of young men in
politics, he must be encouraged in
the honorable ambition 10 hold public
office. He should not be allowed to
get the idea that any public oihcia7
however capable, has a life tenure,
to the exclusion of hundreds of other
men abundantly qualified to III public
positions and who by their active work
in party politics show their interest in
the affairs of the state.
"Now, in 1906, l am of the same
opinion, and In the furtherahee OF that
view, announce that shall not be acan-
didate for the treasurership in the next
republican State convention. | wish
to acknowledge my obligation to the
republican voters of Vermont for their
expressions of confidence in me, and
beg to thank you, MIR Editor, for the
opportunity here given me to do so.
Very truly yours,
'John L BAG m.
