Honorable Ira +. Robinson, Rcpubli.
can candidate for Governor, issued the
following statement here last night.
when Informed Of the contents OF a
Republican which appeared In the
Huntington Advertiser and other
Democratic newspapers OF the State.
my attention has been called to n
publication in the Huntington Adver-
stiser, OF certain letters purporting to
detail an agreement supposed to have
been entered into between certain gen.
5tlemen and myself regarding the Gov.
'eruorship.
~ wish to say unhesitatingiy that
the statements as published are not
correct, that no agreement as detailed
was entered into by me.
Il am willing TO submit to the PEG
pie Of West Virginia whether my rec
ord as man and official indicates that
am prone to make such extraordi.
nary and improper agreements.
am making no promises, but can
faithfully state that In dispensing
patronage the only test will be eff.
cheney and that shall not go behind
the primary returns in measuring any
mans optical fitness.
"The Republican of these letters is
merely an effort to divert attention
from the issues Of the campaign In
order to aid the Democratic candidate
for Governor. l do not propose TO
further this purpose or to crafty the
vanity Of these gentlemen by entering
Into any controversy with them. in so
Tar as am concerned this closes the
