SHELDON WITHDRAWS III FAVOR OF Dili Local Representative Decides Not to Run for Senate in Opposition to Ashland Caa- f didate Sees No Real Issue Between Them. Announcemt-nt was nuulo this woi Ding by lon C. Sheldon that be bad decided not to contest the republican nomination for the state senate with Geo. Dunn of Ashland. This announce ment will doubtless come as a surprise to most of the jeople of the county, but not to those who knew of the re peated ctforU made by Medford repub- licana to bring out an Ashland man for one of the legislative positions, work ing on the theory that, for the sake of (rood feeling between the two cities Asbland should be giveu her choice ttt any position on the delegation.' Mr. Bhtildon bad been a party to this ef fort from the first, and knew that the Medford republicans making this effort- were holding in abeyance their sapport of himself pending some ac tion iiy .Ashland. He filed only after being informed that Ashland had given lip the idea of a candidate. Mr. Sheldon's announcement was In the nature of a letter to Mr. Dunn, as follows: , Medford, April 13th. 1922. Hon. Geo. A. Dunn, Ashland, Ore. Dear Mr. Dunn: I am in receipt of roar message to the effect that you have decided to file for the senate. Your decision creates a rather unusual situation fromvTny standpoint which J will try to state: Tbe people of Ashland feel that they fcre entitled to a place on the legisla tive delegation, a feeling that is gen erally recognised over the county as fair. , . ; You will grant. I am sure, that Med ford republicans have shown a genuine desire to give Ashland whatever she wanted in this regard. Repeatedly and persistently you of Ashland were asked to run a man for either senate or bouse; such men as Mr. Bert An derson and Mr. S. S. Smith 39 well as others going to your representative republicans or Ashland and urging them to bring out a man. I decided to run ouly after being as sured that Ashland bad no candidate. Now your people are urging you to run. Whilo the motive of a few of the more active of those urging your can ' dldacy is something different, by and large it is true that Ashland wants a place on the delegation. A contest between ourselves would be justified only on one of two grounds; that there was some real issue between us as to our attitude on the principal work of the next session, or that we bad personal ambitions which warranted us in going out and fighting for them. I have looked for ward to the next session with only one purpose, trying to lower taxes and help readjust ' the state's financial utalus onto a sounder, more ecunotnl ml banls. I am certain you w ill hold thnt same purpose. 1 have no ambi tion to continue legislative wovk fur ther thnn nlKbt accompany the thought thut 1 might be of service. 1 havo had nil that being In the legisla ture can give in the way of training, experience and acquaintance. I am not the kind of a man who cn climb politically thruugh service in the legis lature under prevailing conditions. Hence 1 have no ambition to continue there which would warrant my asking mr friends to make a contest for mo. Anyone knows that a bitter primary contest between us cannot help but do '(tin .rii).ll..u n ,,,. nf K.i tnlt ft harm: leaving sores that might be carried into the" election this fall or into other elections. . No one who knows y;u could object to you personally as the coimvy's rep resentative in the senate. It looks, then, as though I am iu the Hisitin of asking my friends to put up a fight, against a man to whom nono can rai.se the slightest objection. on behalf of myself who has already received more than his deserts and who has no particular ambition for mm t GUN EXPLODES, P. 0.
