To the voters OF COOKE county:
hereby announce myself as can
didate for Representative in the next
Legislature, subject to the will of the
Republican party of this county as eX-
pressed in a primary, yet to be or
dered, by the executive committee.
The next Legislature will be an i'm,
portant one and the people of this
county ought to send a representative
who will stand loyalty by the admin
istration of Governor Hooper if he is
reelected, as it now appears that he
will be. The fact that there were three
or four men elected to the last Legis-
ture as Republicans, lined up with the
Regular Democrats and betrayed their
constituents, renders it important for
the people to exercise care and caution
in the election OF Senators and Repre-
sentatives.
If elected, | pledge myself to the
support of every principle set out In
the excellent platform adopted by the
Republican State ConI eniion of March
