Der is G. w. Bouck Of this district, who
fled Friday and who gave as his
reason for refusing to sign, according
to the St. Paul Dispatch, as follows:
"I think that oath puts man in bad
hole.' Mr.. Bouck said at the capitol:
"Suppose the district I represented
voted solidly against candidate for
the United States senate-would I
want to come down here and vote for
that candidate, even though he got
the highest number of votes through
out the entire state? It probably
would mean political ruin for me If l
did, and I don't propose taking any
such pledges.' Representative Rouck
said that if Senator Knute Nelson
makes the race for reelection he will
easily carry Morrison county.
