The secretary of the club, Fred B. Adams of this city, has received the re- ply of MT. Roosevelt. The answer is an unqualified declination of the proposed honor, and reads:
 May I. through you, cordially thank the Republican club of Oneida county for It's message of appreciative good will Be- lieve me. I appreciate it. and trust you will make the club understand that l do appreciate 1t, but I also ask that the club at once stop any agitation to have me nominated for governor.
