' i “Since then, however, I have been providentially prevented from canvassing thejdistrict and meeting the people, as I had hoped and ex pected to do at the time of making my announcement, and since it is now entirely too late for me to do so, I deem it best to retire from the race, leaving my friends free to give their support to the candidate of their choic- Personally we have a high opinion of Col.
