Win. B. Bale to succeed himself. His record as a citizen, soldier, crovernor and senator has been clean and honorable to ihe letter, and while his whole course has probably not been as aggressive as some of his colleagues, yet he has been firm in his convictions, conservative in his actions and true to his party and people He is . now on the shady side of life, and we are not in favor of kicking him out of office, just because age has whitened his locks and made him less vigorous than in former years.
