JUDGE F. A. WHITNEY
DECLINES TO Be
A CANDIDATE FOR
CIRCUIT JUDGE

The following letter from Judge f.
A. Whitney to the editor of the Tele-
gram, received today, is self-explan-
atory:
| am requested, in fact. it was
this morning rightfully demanded
that send for publication to you
some explicit answers to various
questions
Three petitions were handed me
this morning. 1t was told me that
eight more were on the way I have
already received six in De Soto coun-
ty and two resolutions from public
meetings, one in Lee county and one
in De Soto. Some call upon other
upon me to announce. | am also told
from large body of citizens that
am to be announced.
II mention this as justification for
me to remain silent no longer but
! frankly confess publicly my confused
embarrassment and insurinountable
reasons for not being candidate
and why cannot be one and asking
that l be not further considered.
Il long ago eliminated myself and
cannot now with honor become one.
~ have had so much of strife. con-
tention. entanglements, animosities,
factionalisms and embitterments of
others to bear and determine both
public and private that sought to
eliminate myself personally from
those conditions. | assumed one
term with reluctance 4 remained in
out of appreciation of so much kind
ness that had been shown me
never expected to ask second term.
My five years of service has been a
very hard and trying one. The prin-
cipal redeeming feature has been
that have been made to feel that
had given reasonably satisfactory
service to the people, but | have re-
peatedly said that while |, like ever!
one else, know the necessity and de-
STABILITY of politics to select public
servants, that personally, knowinf
the nature and burdens of my Office
| "a n IL wit
the confusion, embarrassments ant
acknowledgements Of politics added tt
the already heavy burdens. Feel
ing this way and not knowing thu
interest so many citizens would take
I have become more entaneled thai
IL I had personally applied for thu
Office and made a direct appeal 10
il The result is l am now farthe
behind in the work of the office thai
4 have been in four years. The result
is also that cannot hOnorably be
candidate. The candidates are in n
way responsible | must abide by m
own action
II is demanded that | state public
" whether I would decline unde
any circumstances to serve the PEG
pie.
know I'll be subject to criticism
(but cannot help it, for saying tina
would be unfit for such an Office !
I did not meet the complication ina
I have brought about by declining U
run against the two candidates nov
announced On the other hand,
would be the principal of ingratitud
IL I did not say and feel that it woul
be a privilege to repay all the KIM
expressions that have been directed
towards me, by continued service,
must again assure the people o
my appreciation in letting me know
that I have been reasonably satisfac
tory to them as an officer but ! real
