Mr. Martin Withdraws.

Editors Union : Permit-me to say to the voters of the 30th Judicial -Circuit that I am no Umger a candidate lor the office of Prosecuting Attorney. If any explanation of this action is necessary, it is, perhaps, sufficient to say that my consent to become such in the first instance was only at the urgent solicitation of numerous friends, and ee.rfaiulv,_iml. '._Ln the belief that I should be one of five contesting for a position so little to be desired. In view of the fact that no party nominations have been made, and with the pn>?; r! • umber of-a. \ bants ic .Jit; fie..l, ii.c coutest assumes a char-, liefer distasteful to me, and in which I have neither the time nor inclination to engage. To those who have interested themselves in my behalf I return my earnest thanks, trusting that the reasons assigned l'or this action may >< cm sufficient to them as they Jiav/' seemeil to me, ■* IvespeetfuHy,

W. H. MARTIN.
