I would th-reforo point out to the electors that there is no tirue f lose if thej intend to bring out, as I sincerely trust tbry will do, a man of th« people. I, tot one, don't care about being represented by big men. They mostly hay* enough to go to represent themselves to be able to do much for their constituents.
