This would bo a Kufflcient reason for me to decline ahfiolutelv to be considered in that connection. "Furthermore. I regard the nork to be done an Gotemor of Missouri as of more importance to anj thing I could accomplish in am other position. I had rather be Goernor of Mlr'ouri just now than Vice Pre-idc-il. As t;oernor I can finish the work I hie commenced; in an othr po sition I would ha- to leae It undone.
