DARST DID NOT
BREAK FAITH

CHARLESTON. w. Va, Jan. IL
That State Auditor John Sherman
Darst never at any time sought to
encourage any other person TO become
candidate for the authorship was
the emphatic assertion made by the
auditor today. in refutation of the re.
port that when he renowned his gu
bernatorial ambition and became again
candidate for the nomination for
auditor he had broken faith with
others.
When asked this morning as to the
statement that he had promised not
TO enter the race to succeed himself
as auditor. Mr.. Darst said:
My candidacy for the nomination
for state auditor is 1 mo way con
nected with the candidacy of any
other person for the authorship or
for any office.
Il have at no time sought or re
ouested any person TO become a can
didate for any public office whatso-
ever; neither have l sought TO pre-
vent and one from being a candidate.
and while | am now seeking the audi
torship again. recognize the right
of every Republican TO aspire to pub
lie office, and no matter how many
seek this nomination. / shall not com.
plain.
When a candidate for the govern
orship | never at any time advised
any person that / would not again be
candidate for auditor. with the OBJ
1ect OF having some one else enter
the race. ] am under no obligations
TO anyone on that score.
My candidacy for auditor is jus;
as free from agreements as was my
candidacy for governor. | take il that
what the people OF West Virginia re-
quire from a public officer is service
and the satisfactory conduct and ad-
ministration OF his office. | am not
seeking the nomination for auditor
on any appeal to prejudice. but my
candidacy will be based on my record
as a public servant. On that I am
willing TO be judged. and | have no
fear Of the result of the June pri-
mary"
