following statement to the Democrats
;of the seventh congressional district
of Tennessee, in ' announcing his
withdrawal from the congressional
primary:
"You have honored me in the past
with your confidence'' and support,
vhich I . deeply appreciate and for
which I am profoundly grateful. It
has been m constant aim to render
you faithful and efficient service, and
I am content to lay my record as your
servant before you for inspection and
: approval.
"The congressional executive com
mittee met at Franklin on the 9th for
the purpose of naming a day and pre
scribing rules for the congressional
primary election. I appeared oefore
this committee and called their atten
tion that it had been the custom to
have the primary on the day of the
August election, and that it had never
been held sooner than that date. I
also called their attention that my du
ties as a member of congress and as
chairman of the great committee on
naval affairs, imperatively demanded
rry constant presence In Washington
and constant attention to the dis
charge of the duties, and that my du
ties v ere such that I could not post
pone them nor neglect them without
being false to the congress an! to
my people and recreant to my official
position. (
"I told them that the democratic
party was now for the first time in
sixteen years in control of the lower
house of congress and was on trial
before the country, and upon the rec
ord made by the democrats in con
gress was dependent the election of
a democratic president and a demo

"I said to tiieiu that the proiiosed

Svmally because it denied me opportu

present my claims, and that it was
nn injustice to the people of the dis
trict, because they had a right to ex
pect and demand of me as their ser
vant that I should appear before them
face to face, and render to them an ac
count of my stewardship, as has been
the unbroken custom of the country
since the organization of our govern
ment; and that it was an . injustice
to the democratic party in congress
to demand of me that I should leave
my post of duty or that I should be
recreant to the trust which the party
had Imposed upon me, or that a dem
ocratic committee should seek direct
ly or Indirectly to embarrass me so
thit I could not devote my time and

preparation of the naval appropria
tion bill, carrying $125,000,000; and
in addition, had before my committee
more than 150 bills relating to legis
lation for the navy. I said to the com
.nittee, and I now reaffirm, that 1
will not desert my post of duty nor
voluntarily be false to the trust con
filed in me, and 'that in a choice be
tween being false to my present duty
or sacrificing my personal ambitions
for future preferment, I shall remain
at my place of duty.
"But the committee ignored the
fixed and uniform custom of the past
pad brushed aside every consHera
lion which I had suggested, and set
tho primary for April 27, at a time
when they knew I could not and
would not have opportunity to appear
lieforo the people and render to them,
face tc face, an account of my stew
ardship.1
Heretofore, it nas Deen the un
broken custom to keep state and na
tional politics separate, and while we
hive in Tennessee an unhappy divi
sion over state matters, which has
torn the party asunder, we have hap
pily up to the present time kept these
local divisions and strife out of na
tional politics. But the committee ig
noring the consideration of the main
tenance of harmony in national poli
tics, tied the congressional primary
oato the state primary and requires
that every voter in the congressional
primary shall obligate himself to tup
port all the nominees of the state
primary, when the committee well
knew that there were many thous
ands of democrats who, because of
tie division oer state and local pol
itics, would not participate in the con
gressional primary; and by thi3 ac
tion the committee has disfranchised
taourunds of democrats from partici
pation in the congressional primary.
Instead of promoting harmony, the
committee, by its action, has infused
the discord "and turmoil existing in
str.te politics into congressional poU
ti:8, which I sincerely believe is very
unfortunate anl is to be deplored.
"In tho last congressional primary
th,s very committee, by two resolu
tions, expressly declared that" the
only pledge to be required of a voter
in the congressional primary was to
support the nominee of that primary,
ind Siich has been the unbroken cus
tom supported by the wisdom of the
party in the past, but by its action j
the committee debars from participa
tion" m the congressional primary
many thousands of democrats simply
baceuse there may be a difference up
on questions of local and state poli
tics. This action of the committee is
contrary to the customs of the past
md is unfair, unjust, undemocratic,
and revolutionary, and is destructive
of the best interests of the democrat
ic party and subversive of harmony
n the party, which we so much de
sire; and was an improper injection
of disturbances into congressional
politics.
"I lanot better express the situa
tion than to use the language of the
whatfnooga Times, one of the strong
est regular democratic papers ia the
state, in speaking of this actios of
the committee, which 'says that it is
undertaking to force the people to a
primary and the candidates to sub
scribe to pledges, action both cafalr,
undemocratic and destructive of that
harmony which all true American and
unselfish denrocrata are striving to
bring about in this distraught state.
"Committees are necessary to par
ty success, and are entitled to the al
so long, however, as they are repre
sentative of the masses and guaran
tee fair play and a square deal to ev
ery democrat. When they permit
i'lemselveB to become partisans of
any one candidate and attempt to give
any one person or individual an un
fair advantage " over another having
oqual rights "before the people they
cease to be 'committees' in the sense
in which they were elected and be
come machines operating against the
best interests of the organization,
they were chosen to serve and usurp
ers of the rights of the people.
