POBTLAXD, ORE. May 10-To the
Editor : I observe that an effort is being
made on behalf of the Democratic oppo
sition to my election as Governor to
show that I resided in Oregon for 17
years before I became a citizen.
1 will state the facts to that the public
may understand for all time bow utterly
baseless and unjust this particular fabri
cation is, and how easily confuted by
the simple truth.
I was born near Plymouth, England,
March 21, 1864. My father, Thomas
Withvcombe. my mother, Mary Ann
Withycombe, my three brothers, John,
Thomas and Phillip, my sister Mary and
mvself. constituting the entire Withy
combe family, came to Oregon in 1871
to become uermanent residents ana
American citizens. Shorly after his ar
rival, my father, Thomas Withycombe,
declared his intention of becoming an
American citizen. I was then 17 years
of age, and I was informed that the act
of mv father naturalized all the minor
members of the family. Deeming my
self an American citizen I voted for
Eutherford B. Hayes for President in
1876. and I have ever since that time
discharged with good conscience and to
the best of mr ability my full duties as
a loyal citizen of the great American re
public. About 1888. question was
raised as to whether Thomas H. Tongue,
then a candidate for United States hen'
otnr who was born In Enieland and
came to this country under circum
stances similar to mine, was in fact
qualified American citizen! It occurred
to me then that possibly my own natur
alization had not been regular, and tn
mv crreat anxietv and desire to possess an
absolutely unclouded title to my Amer
ican citizenship I wei t lfore Judge
Deady and formally took out naturaliza
tion pupers. I think that there never
was a question that from the time
my father became a citizen I was myself
a citizen. But I simply made assurance
doubly sure. That is all there is to it. If
I was not a citizen, I beg to say to all
Democratic gentlemen who are so much
concerned about my nativity, after my
38 vean of continuous residence in Ore-
.,nn ilmt. T will waive the statute of
limitations and will submit to prosecu
tiou and trial for having cast an illegal
vote for the Republican ticket in 1876,
