Tendered tfoe Candidate to lature SHOWS â- M^MII'. >'! , -VV'"* '• -V:'<" on As nes, n|tH»i» Tl IS ?# tf*; mmtni That the Bull Mooee leadirfl in district are not very strongly in of Harry F. Nightingale as "jffi$f*pk$ didate for the Btat© legislature and that they are bending all efforts to se- cure another man, is shown by the fact that the nomination was tendered to Dr. William % Mcfeveen* pastor <>f the First Congregational church, Evan-ton. The pastor declined to run. Following a meeting of the commit- tee of Five, ippoThtte* to Belert^e1^^ "** candidates for the state legislature and the house of representativet, held last week, ^ r^jh^^^%&^mem* ber of the commVfl^or? flvfyfehdered the Domination to the local pastor. From the action of the Committee of Five it seems that they are not will- ing to run Nightingale as their candi- date, feeling that a man who Is better known should be put up inran effort to make a creditable showing. Dr. McEIveen's Reply. Following is Dr. McElveen's reply to Mr Board i September 5,1912. Mr. E. M. Board, Room 309, La Salle Hotel, Chicago. My dear Mr. Board: Your note advising me of the wish of your Committee of Five that I be a candidate for the state legislature at hand. I sincerely wish.-1 might say yes to your invitation,' for I regard service in the state legislature as-a splendid missionary opportnntty. A man might be as much a missionary of God in the legislature of Illinois as in the jungles of Africa. Once men thov.£ut that a patriot was a man who shouldered a musket and-went forth 4o agtit, and, tf need be, die upon the field of battle. We know today that a patriot is a man who is willing to sacrifice much to serve his state or his country. Every American should be uioie than willing to bear the bur* deus on J responsibilities of citizen ship But I have obligated myself to do b< .aany things not only in my own parte* but in the city of Chicago, that I canu ,t assume just now another' re- sponsibility,. 'Kindly express to your colleagues on the Committee of Five my hearty thanks for the honor they do uit in askltfg me to be a candidate, The Progressives, I believe, would do wt.i to unite on the candidacy of Mr. Ht„,y f. Nightingale. He has al ready been referred to as a candidate for the state legislature. For many year* ho has been an interested stu- dent „r government both in the unl versities of America and in the unl veroities of Europe. He is a man of integrity and ability; robustly honest, straightforward to a fault, an excel lent executive, an attractive speaker, and an affable personality. He is ag tressive and fearless. He is a man to bf depended upon, t w^ould be very ibd to support his candidacy. Yours very sincerely, Wm. T. McElveen.
