DEAR Mr.. CARLIN: Your opponent

throughout the District in which ne
has made the statement that you are
serving upon unimportant Committees,
"and it is the custom of Congress
and even of the Senate, that when
ever q member has opposition, to ex-
cuse him and let him go home to fight
his political battles" He is stating
that it is your duty. therefore, to
come upon the stump and canvass
the District with him. | would like
10 be informed as to the correctness
of these statements and as to your
intentions. Mr.. Gordon has also stat
ed that one of the Committees on
which you are serving meets once
every four years and the other rarely
ever meets at all"
In writing this letter / desire TO ad-
wise you that it is my purpose to print
in my paper the correspondence be-
tween us.

DEAR Mr.. FRANK: In reply to your

that before | was sworn into office
Mr.. Gordon announced his candidacy
against me and has been continuously
engaged in public speaking, letter
writing and hand shaking. was
therefore at the very beginning of my
term of Office brought to cOnsiuer the
present situation and came to the de-
liberate conclusion that the people OF
the District were entitled to my servi-
ces for the term for which they have
elected me and that it was my duty
to discharge the trust which they had
imposed before could cOnscientiously
or consistently ask continuance Oh
their confidence. Having reached this
determination, | addressed a circular
letter to the voters OF my District an
nouncing my intention 20 remain at
my post of duty and to discharge the
responsibilities of the trust imposed
and to rely upon their sense Of justice
and fair dealing to determine whether
or not | was entitled to re-nOmina-
ton. and Notwithstanding the bitter
assaults which have been made upon
my position by the partisan Press and
friends of Mr. Gordon for the purpose
Of advancing his interest and injurln'
me, | have not been in the slightest
degree shaken in my convictions.
Since receiving your letter h'va
requested the Hon. John Sharp Will
Jams to give me his views upon this

sought his advice because he is by the
unanimous vote of the Democratic
Party in Congress its chosen leader

ENTERED GRAY'S NAME.
Handy. of Delaware, Places the Dis
tinguished Jurist i'm Nomination.

Convention Hall. Denver. Colo,
July 1O-The presentation Of the
name of Judge Gray to the Demo-
crat national convention as a candi-
date for president was made by
Levin Irving Handy who spoke in
part as follows:
Mr. Chairman and gentlemen of the
convention:
have duty to perform placed
upon me by the Democracy of the
state from which 1 come. In the
performance of that duty my heart
leaps with pleasure.
Because of his ability, because of
his patriotism, because of the ma
turity of his judgment, because of
his judgment, because of his devo-
tion to true Democratic principles,
because of the width and depth of
his experience in governmental af-
fairs. and because of his devotion to
justice and to the constitution, the
man who is best fitted to perform the
duties of president of the United
States is George Gray. AS a general
rule the man best fitted for the place
is most availabl for the nomination.
If you are to nominate man be-
cause he is eager to be president,
you will not name Judge Gray. There
are other candidates who want. this
nomination more than he does. This
man is as modest as, he is great.
Ambition is the last weakness of
great minds, and ambition is the
greatest danger the people have to
fear in rulers. George Gray is a pub
lie servant without personal ambition.
In this he is like our first and great
est president.
If you are to nominate the man
whom you personally love the. best,
perhaps you may nominate some
other candidate; for L am not un-
mindful of the personal devotion
which delegates here present cherish
for other candidates. But the oues-
tion we are to decide is too i'm
portant to our party ana our country
to be decided because of personal
preferences
Entering on a political campaign
In which victory or defeat means so
much, we are now to elect the politi-
cal chieftain who shall carry our
banner and marshal our forces If
the country were in a great war in
which a decisive battle was to be
fougft and the duty fell upon me to
choose the general who should COM
mand our countrys army in the field,
you'd not dare to put in command
lie general whom 1 loved the best
nor the one who was the most
eager Neither would you. The
responsibility would be Overwhelming
to choose the soldier whose genius for
war. shown by his record and exper-
ience, gave the best prospect Of win
ming victory.
Delaware is a small state, but it is
sometimes given to small people to
perform great services. In offering
George Gray as your presidential
candidate Delaware Is offering a great
service to the party and the country.
On behalf of Delaware, in accordance
with her instructions and in her
name. 1 nominate George Gray as
candidate for president of the United
States

THE TWO FAVORITE SONGS.
Democrats Enjoyed "A Hot Time" and
Hail. Hail. Gangs All Here -

which should go down in history as the
battle hymns of the big demonstration

these two songs were the popular airs
to which the delegates turned Whenever
enthusiasm showed the least sign Of
tagging. And every time the COWBOY
band raised the notes of those dash
ing songs the convention hall respond
ed as horse which is getting the
spur.
There were. of course, other airs by
the band. There was. for instance
Dixie" Hail Columbia and Amer
lea" and MY Country. 'Tis of Thee :,
All these helped along the game Of
making a noise. But the songs to
which the convention went back and
returned and returned again were the
two ditties mentioned.
"There'n Be Hot Time in the Old
Town Tonight" was a bit in the lead

The second one was given several times.
