Comment
In the foregoing announcement
have tried to use good, old fashioned
words and terms to express the prin-
ciples OF loyalty and patriotism that
was breathed into the body polite by
our forefathers. 1t proved good for
them and it has proven good for those
who have come after them and it is

to read with emphasis the words in
capital letters, and if you believe in
my integrity and ability, do you need
or desire a stronger pledge for the
protection of your legitimate rights?
Is it not safer and saner to be guild
ed by. the principles enunciated
than to, blindly pledge this, that or the
others? A man who IS unworthy of
your confidence on pledge such as
I have announced is unworthy of "a
public trust Do you know of any
better way to conserve and preserve
public interests than to be guided in
this service, by the RECORDS. by
EXPERIENCE and by INTELLI-
GENT PUBLIC OPINION If so
it would be revelation and appropri-
ate. The fellow who is egotistical as
to think he can make good, just and
equitable laws off-hand, like making
tracks in the sand, is unworthy of
having public trust committed into
his hands. regard it a very serious
responsibility for it to be made my
duty to create and make laws by
which my fellow citizens must be
governed. In view of this fact. do
you blame me for saying that l shall
not commit myself to the repeal or
enactment of any measure which
have not had time and opportunity to
study and consider in the beneficent
| light of truth as revealed by the
RECORDS, by EXPERIENCE and
INTELLIGENT PUBLIC OPIN-
ION and to do my duty as God and
patriotism shall inspire me.
