DENIsoh WiTHDRAWs FRO
RACE FOR CONGRESS-.

E y. p v
John D. Denison has withdrawn
from the race for the democratic
nomination for congress from the
Third district, leaving Maurice Con
molly In the field without opposition.
In announcing his decision to With
draw, Mr.. Denison gave out the FOL
lowing statement.
ITO the Democrats OF the Third
Congressional District:
II have withdrawn as a candidate
for the nomination for congress IN
this district. in doing this, It 10
but fair to say that this is taken
with the thought that it may conduce
to party harmony and welfare.
ut must be understood that DO
not withdraw because OF. any doubt
as to the result in the primary in
the event that had remained q
candidate; nor Is it done because OF
the opposition to me OF certain chron.
&c irreconcilables within the demo
cratic party. l5:
Many responsible democrats sim
cerely believe that Mr.. Connolly
ought this year to be given an open.
field for the nomination and election
and my personal attitude toward
him is best shown BY the fact that that
four years ago and again two years
ago. urged him to be a candidate
and offered to support him for the
nomination. He should have unitet
party support now. and j am unwia-
ing that any act OF mine should even
seem to tend to party division.
Il must not close this withdrawal
without expressing my gratitude to
my friends who have circulated my
petitions in all the counties Of the
district, but one and particularly IN
Dubuque county, where, without mon !;
ey and without price moved only by
sincere regard and unselfish loyalty,
they furnished me with over 1000
signatures OF the men who vote the.
democratic ticket in this. county and
receive nothing in return. save the
satisfaction Of political duty well
and favorably done. To them am
indeed most grateful. nj
ITO them, may say that Maurice
Connolly will carry our banner
bravely, faithfully and ably. He IL 4.

pect that all my friends will give
him the devoted support that ! shall
