Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Correspondence Between Senator Reed Smoot and N. V. Jones: Including a Discussion of the Senator´s Record in the United States Senate Dear Sir: Your note of the 7th inst., addressed to me, arrived in due course of mail. Like most other citizens I am interested in the political welfare of our state, and as a consequence, I am not a stranger to your record in the senate. Since receiving your note, and from the fact that you have referred me to the record, and that you base your claims for support and re-election upon that record, I have for my own satisfaction, and further information, examined your record, with particular reference to the investigation before the Senate committee and the discussion of your case upon the floor of the senate in 1907. After that examination of the record I feel better qualified to speak in relation to it. I wish here and now to state that although I did not support you in your election to the senate, because I was opposed to your Republican principles, yet after you were elected to the senate, I stood firmly and patriotically behind you, and gave you my moral support, for the reason that you were duly elected to the senate by the legislature of the state of Utah, and there were no proper or legal grounds justifying either your exclusion or subsequent expulsion from the senate. To that extent you had my support during your battle to retain your seat, as fully as if you had been my political choice. In your note you say: "My record as senior senator from the state of Utah, is open for all to read, and I go before the people for re-election basing my claims upon that record. If my work has not been brought credit and honor to our state, I do not deserve to be re-elected as your representative in the senate, but if, in your opinion, my labors have resulted in the advancement of our state and my record as a whole meets with your approval, then I shall greatly appreciate your valuable assistance during the coming campaign. Assuring you that I am ready and willing at all times to serve you, and with very best wishes I remain," etc. Your appeal to me to support you for re-election to the senate is a direct one, and as frankly stated by you is based upon your record in the senate during your incumbency.
