In 1849, while a member of the House, he was a candidate for Secretary of State, and was defeated.
With marked zeal and ability, Mr. Storrs devoted himself to measures calculated to develop the mineral region of Alabama, in the midst of which he resided, and to this end he advocated the establishment of railroads, in aid of which he proposed to apply the two and three per cent, funds. Gloomy as the prospect seemed then, these lines of connection have since been opened, and the people of Shelby
...and those of other counties are about to realize the benefits of the wise movement. By some persons an objection to Mr. Storrs has been raised, on the ground that he was too sectional in his views and efforts that he was wedded too entirely to the people of Shelby county, regardless of the general interest. While the fact probably existed of such devotion on his part, it should be borne in mind that he had cast his lot in a com munity with which he had become identified in feeling and interest, and that it was natural he should promote their welfare to the best of his opportunities.
