Mays, who, on the face of the returns, has received a majority of the votes of the third Congressional district for congress, whose nomination is contested by J. Walter Kehoe on the ground that some of the Mays precincts returned more votes than there were qualified electors In the precincts, has issued the following statement t To the people of the Third Congres sional District of Florida: I have a clear majority of 48 of all the votes cast in the last Demo cratic primary over my opponent Mr. Kehoe, counted and tabulated by the county committees of each cour.tr, the same committees that counted the votes that nominated county officers, that nominated ou' senator, governor, and rwlrond com. miKSioiier, given me uy 1'ie people in their own right. 1 clrim no other treatment thnn that acccrdeil tbe enndidntcs in t' is rrimary Hint my vole v crunud and the result de clared sis theirs has been. Yet by a vote of less thin oiie liuit' of the distiicl coinini ;u-c ul Ue but-g :ntion of Mr. Kehoe, tlu-y have adjourned without declaring the result. This adjournment was taken until July 15th, prcximo. What is it for? Judging from some of the flimsy pretexts and technicalities, so fuf urged as reasons for throwing out the votes of precincts in various counties that gave me clenr major ities it is but lair to pnsume? that this adjournment is solely for the purpose ot further machinations to circumvent and defeat the expressed will of a majority of our people. Will the good people of the thud congressional district sanction this effort to annul their will as express ed in the primary? Will you do It? Very truly, L. II. MAYS.
