On his itenerary in behalf of Mr.. Hub
Dean it was announced on your edl-
torial page, by necessary inference at
least, that Major McGregor, being so
very close to me, etc, would be con-
sidered as virtually my representa-
tive. AS soon as saw this first par
agraph in your paper, which was COM
ing daily to my house in Florida, l
wrote an autograph letter in the most
friendly spirit to the major, urging
him in the first place not to make any
speeches for Brother Dean, and in the
second place to make it clear to his
audiences Tin case he did take the
stump in the senatorial campaign)
that he spoke for himself and not
for me.
The majors speech at Lawrenceville
certainly conveys the impression that
he is my "guide, philosopher and
friend" my protector and my gener-
al caretaker. Perhaps there has been
something too much said to. this eff
feet, and | am naturally dissatisfied
by the attitude in which / am placed
by it. In time past / have protect
ed" the major quite as much as ne
ever protected me, and there has new
er been a time when was unable to
speak for myself when speech was
necessary, and fight for myself when
fighting was necessary.
Neither Major McGregor nor any
one else has authority to speak for
me upon any political issue. None of
my friends have had more definite
and timely notice to this effect than
the major. When l get ready to
speak or write about the senatorial
race l can do it without the majors
help, and if l should be so unfortu-
nate as to be personally assaulted be-
cause of public expression of my
honest opinions | will endeavor to
defend myself without calling upon
the major for his protection.
