make 1t emphatic that If the com.
mittee had called on me before the

| would have positively declined to
be a candidate.
cts acceptance is contrary to my
better judgment. / have given this
matter the closest thought for the

opinion that a third nomination Is
unwise and against the principles OF
the party unchanged, yet hardly
see how I can get away from max
ing the race without putting the
party in hole. regret this action
and wish IL had never happened.
"The nomination has been made;
/ have been declared the nominee.
and so there you are. 1t really
leaves me in an embarrassing pc
