decided drop In the temperature yes

POLITICAL GOSSIP.
The following Is self-explanatory:
"When I went Into the llepubllcun
primaries teeklng the nomination for
county commissioner, I did so with tho
full Intention of abiding by the result
thereof. Like every man who has u due
regard for the canity of our primary
'election. I accepted that result, and am
just as loyal today in my allegiance to
Itepublican principles and the Repub
lican party and Its candidates as any
one can be. 1 desire my friends, the
thousands of them who supported my
candidacy in the primaries, to know
this, assuring them thai my wish Is for
the success of every man whom Iho
Republicans have nominated.
"This statement ought to be unneces
sary to those who know me best, but It
Is rendered necessary by reason of false
leports now going the rounds that 1
am secretly opposing the ticket, or
some of those who compose it. I am
for the ticket. Itespect fully,
