Phe pointed out to me that the vote I received at the pri mary election was approximately the same as that received bv mv opponent. They state that there are approximately 3000 registered voters in Curry County and the present situation adds up to the fact that, unless something is done about it, than 400 voters will have decided this issue. They fee! that the remaining 2,600 voters should have a chance for a free expression of their choice tor district attorney. They say that all of the voters of Curry County should be given a chance to say whom they want for their district attorney. This can only be accomplished at the general election iu Nov ember. More than UK) voters, of both political parties have request ed me to become a non-partisan candidate in November. They are all of the opinion that a district attorney should lx? chosen tx'cause of his qualifications as a lawyer and not because of affiliation with a political party. All oi these folks have come to me of their own free will and have asked me to become a candidate. 1 cannot refuse their request.
