Summary

Carl Schurz and others Speeches, correspondence and political papers of Carl Schurz… (1913)

Aside from the objections of a public character urged by me to your election to the Senate,—which you will remember were accompanied with a denial of personal unkindness,—I have not had, have not now, any reason for withholding from you an expression of congratulation upon your success.
Much less have I occasion for desiring any other relations between us as colleagues than those of respect, good-will and cordial coöperation.
