fellow Republicans of Colorado,
feel that in making this announce
ment | should state that / have come
to this decision solely because |
know that my own interests and
those of my family require me to give
to my business affairs the personal
attention and care they have wholly
lacked during my service in the SEN
ate, and that / cannot defer attention
to them beyond March 3, 1913.
AT the time OF my election to the
senate | was actively connected with
the management OF large industrial
interests; on my election / entirely
severed these connections, and have
devoted my entire time and energies
to the interests of the people of Col
orado and to what l believed was the
general good of the whole country
to all matters also affecting my con-
stituents. collectively and individual
ly, regardless of political affiliations,
| have given prompt and careful at
tention, and have endeavored to OBJ
tain beneficial results; all this ] shall
continue to do until the expiration OF
my term.
by this care and attention | have
expressed only in part the sincere
gratitude and deep sense OF obligation
and appreciation | have felt and shall
always feel for the high honor con-
ferred on me by my election to the
senate.
at is my earnest wish and belief
that | shall be succeeded by Repub-
lican who will maintain the principles
of the party and who will have at
heart the interests of the state, as
have had. and l wish to assure the
Republicans of Colorado, through
you, that | shall continue to do all |
