COOK WITHDRAWS FROM
RACE AS REPRESENTATIVE.

On the advice of some of the leaders
of the Republican party in this Legis-
lative district | have decided not to
be a candidate for the office of Repre-
sentative from this district Since my
announcement | have met with hearty
support from many Republicans in
both this and Breckenridge county 1t
is needless for me to say that | ap-
preciate this support from my friends
more than ! can express. But to make
the race as things now stand could
only result in endangering Republican
success in the district this fall and as
success of the party is stronger in me
than my personal ambition. | have
decided to withdraw and leave the
field clear, so that there will be no
party fight in the primary, thus insur-
ing the election of Republican from
this district. Again extending my sin
cere thanks to my many friends who
have given me assurance of their sup
port for the Office.
am respectfully,
JOHN COOK.
