DECIDES TO RETIRE AFTER LONG SERVICE (Continued from First Page) "Why not run again?" My reasons are these: In the first place in the words of ex-President Coolidge "I do not ' M choose to run." This in itself might be a sufficient reason but there are others. One is that before the expiration of my present term as Probate Judge I will have attained the age of three score years and ten. I have been on the job a long time. I am t}red and crave a release from the arduous duties that the office carries. The extract given below from a letter written by James Buchanan in 1803 to his friend. William Pinckney, a representative and senato~ from Maryland, very accurately expresses my views upon this subject. The letter was published in the Colurrtbiit State June ^16, 1920, and was furnished that paper by John K, AtiH. My. Buchanan was writing of an appointment he had just been tendered by the President. He said: "I have never been an office seeker, but have hitherto been always gratified with the offices conferred upon me. I have, however, no taste for* the English mission. I can say in all sincerity, that nothnig but a sense of public duty and the earnest solicitations of the President induced me to accept it. I was sixty-two years of age on the 23rd of April last and have acquired a decided ' taste for tranquility and retirement. I did not desire ever again xo hold public .office. I have always eonstd? ered it a melancholy spectacle to see old men struggling in the political arena for public honors anq offices as though this earth was to be their everlasting abode." And then there are those who -apparently are exceedingly anxious for the office, and would go any lenght3 to obtain it. I would not go into a scramble for it. There are those it seems' who think that the office is a veritable gold mine with no work or responsibility attached to it. In both conjectures they are sorely mistaken as I am worth less financially today than I was when I took charge of the office, and the dixies of the office are exceedingly numerous and very responsible. .. .Conditions seem 1 to exist which prevailed tn 1800 and Very aptly described by Mr. Thomas J. Kirk land in one of his "Tillman' and I" articles which appeared in the i: newspapers in July, 1029, where he paid that while serving as a member of the legislature in 1890 he observ ed and had to pass upon some of the struggles of ambition for office "such t as wage between ravenous lions over ^ the carcass of a Zebra." Present , day politics and practices in primary elections are preventing many good , men from offering for office. And then there seems to be a i growing sentiment among the people (and in some cases possibly rightly so) thjt an offic^TZS not ?erve at the longest momlvM two term#. Only recently * UWTB beent puaaed by the South (W7* legielature^ralMbltlA^ihe cmS^M ecutive from aerv^, ?v>r? than M term as Governor. So taking all th?M thing, |nto c aideration I have upon my own i.I tiative and agaluat the wish*# , many good friend* decided not to <9 fer for re-election next year During ray administration moil than threw thousand estate# havfl been admlniatered. Some of the nVtwl duties of the office have been s?tul ing patient# to the State boy# to the Bfriustrial School and k9 f or ma tor y, pirU.to the Rescue ol phanage, issuing mMrriage liven J and paying out pension money *1 of which are very grave anj r J sponsible duties. In the -diecharS of these duties It has been necessarl for me to sign my name in an offB cial capacity possible more than million times, and I have joined il the holy bonds of Inatrimony moil than six thousand souls. 1 An eventful period of my admit! iatration was the .years tn whitl whiskey permits were issued from til Probate office. How many 'miUid (?) did J issue did you ask? WeW J-do not remember the exact numbel and as an Act was passed by t? legislature requiring the records t| be destroyed there is no way nowjfl telling, but suffice it to say that that list could be resurrected y<M might And names there that yo| would not expect to see, and narmfl you might, expect to see you wouM not'Ana. Let the record remain il oblivion. I do not think it would be just tl close this article without a word 9 commendation for those members.
