Gentlemen:-
I desire. to thank you for your kind
reference to one plank in my platform
in my candidacy for Ramsey County
Treasurer-that "if elected I would
not give q relative a pleasant look in
the Office"
To my mind, nepotism has grown to
be quite an abuse in national, state
and county politics. It sure has 'been
worked to perfection"-or rather to
imperfection-in North Dakota; and
Ramsey county officials have always
feared for their cousins and aunt's and
wife's relatives as deputies, world
without end, Amen.
Yours for more efficient public gel
