To the Democratic Votera of
the Second Senatorial District:
In announcing for - renom-
i nation for the office of State
Senator, I am conscious of two
important facts: First, the salary
attached to the office is of no iro-
oortancp, being barely sufficient
to pay expenses of the simplest
kind of living. Second, it la the
opportunity for service which
alone justifies your support. It
has been my privilege to repre-
you during the past four years.
If -the service has been honest
and effecient and merits your
approval, I feel that I can render
better service en the next four
years.
Without boasting, I think I
may say that some good laws
were secured thru my service,
as well as some bad legislation
prevented, most of which the
public dues not know-
I believe in every reform which
will benefit the people, but rad-
ical changes, upsetting establish-
ed business and customs just for
the sake of making a change or
big noise, should not be en-
couraged. The business of the
state should be hanbied just as
honestly and economically as
>the'r business. You have aright
demand that much of any
public official, and no abuse of a
public trust should be tolerated.
Later I shall state more in detail
the things which I believe the
legislature should do. Will be
glad to answer any questions.
Very Respectfully
