Much speculation as to the sue
cessor of Leo XIII is already made.
Every member of the Catholic church
both lay and cleric is eligible. The
result depends on the Sacred College
which is made up of the cardinals,
who hail from all countries. The
name cardinal is derived from cardo,
a hinge, and they are so named be-
cause they are hinges on which the
church will swing through its SUI
preme pontiff. Ten days after the
death of the pope the cardinals meet
in conclave, that is, in a chamber
which may be locked-cum clave.
Here, shut away from the outside
world, with secret ballot, they decide
who is o be Peters successor. For
election two-thirds majority of those
present is needed They are not per-
mitted to leave their enclosure till the
election takes place Of all govern
ments, where the humblest member
of the church may assume that high
office, it is the most democratic.

Mr.. Fox did not do the porper thing
in his withdrawal card, published in
another place in today's Progress, but
perhaps withdrawing from a guber-
material race is like editing news
paper-there are always plenty people
who claim that they can do the job
better than the man at the wheel.
But Mr.. Fox should have added P.
S. to his card, reading somewhat in
this wise: Gentlemen, am honest
and chivalrous enough to say that
while I cannot be elected governor it
would give me great pleasure to see a
Clay county man in the gubernatorial
chair, and for that reason and for
many others / ask you to support my
friend, my next door neighbor, my Co
laborer in the upbuilding of West
Point, Clay county and this section of
the state, Judge Frank A. Critz. He
is fully worthy of your consideration
and your undivided support. Give it
to him. This would have been the
honorable thing for him to have done
and the balance of the state would have
applauded him

IT WANTS A NEW NAME.
The Pearl and Leaf Rivers Railroad
Wants to Be Called the Mis-
sissippi Central.

The Pearl and Leaf Rivers railroad
is becoming so important and has
reached so far beyond what it has
heretofore been termed as a local
road, or as some PERSISTED in calling
it, a logging road, that the manage.
ment has determined to make q change
in its name and soon will apply to
the railroad commission for permission
TO call it the Mississippi Central.
The road runs almost in direct west
ern course, passing through the coun-
ties of Perry, Marion, Covington and
Lawrence and at present terminates
at Brownsville, now called Prentiss,
forty five miles from Hattiesburg.
1t is the purpose of the company to
begin the extension Of the line next
week from Prentiss to Silver Greek,
where it will intersect the Menden-
hall and Columbia branch of the Gulf
and Ship Island road. 1t is supposed
that will be the terminus Of the road

then the governor, who is depending
solely and exclusively upon that ad-
ministration for his support, is in the
middle of bad fix.
According to this it would be rather
dangerous for the head of the admin
istration to be "a candidate for high
office when that same administration
is pointed to as very large stumbling
block in the path Of other candidates
who might be so unfortunate as to
receive its support. This also leaves
the impression that the administration
has political ring around it and that
this ring must be avoided at all haz-
Yard.
1t used to be that when candidate
could get the supprot of the state adj
ministration he considered him self
very fortunate and his friends would
even boast of it, but it does not seem
to be the case in this campaign. But
it is not once presumed that Judge
Critz, if the News has reference to
him, is connected with the admins
ration ring, if there be one, or any
other ring. He is running upon his
own merits.

TO THE PEOPLE OF MISSISSIPPI
A. F. Fox Sets Forth His Reasons
for Retiring From the Guber-

the following letter:
To my Fellow Citizens of the State
of Mississippi:
Much as regret it, l am compelled
by the strongest personal reasons,
arising from circumstances which
could not foresee, and over which /
have no control to retire uncondi-
tionally from the race for the office
Of governor.
Under present conditions it is i'm
possible for me to continue actively
in the canvass, and unless / could do
SO, it would be an injustice to both
my friends and myself to remain
longer in the contest.
The chief concern I feel in taking
this step is for the friends who have
supported me so Loyalty. l owe
them debt Of gratitude which / can
never repay, but which will
always recognize and remember.
The campaign of misrepresenta-
ton, calumny and falsehood, backed
by the corrupt use of money. that
has been waged against me with so
much bitterness, has only made
them the more Jealous in my sup
port.
Representing as they do the best
thought, aspirations and patriotism
of the democracy of Mississippi and
of our Christian CIVILIZATION, uninflu-
enced as they were by factional
polititics, personal preferment OF
petty ambitions, prize their con
fidence more highly than the office
of governor, and as I retain 1t, and
have the consciousness that my can
didacy has stood for truth and the
best interests of the state [ can we'll
afford to despise the enemies | have
made.
If in the canvass / have In any
way contributed to proper solution
of public questions which are Of such
vital Importance at this time, [ will
be more than gratified.
/ have the greatest-confdenc0 that
The good Judgment and patriotism OF
the party will secure a result worthy
of this great commonwealth

it reaches Natchez or at least the

A WEAK POINT.

The Jackson News rather admits of
a waek point in the state administra-
ton, whether Intentionally or not.
1t says that some of the supporters of
Vardaman are already trying to get
mp some stories on another candidate
in the race for governor to the effect
that he is now the administration cam
didate. Then it proceeds to deny the
report as being true. This would in
dictate that the administration is loaded
pnrposely to kill candidates and that
It is rather dangerous for candidate
to receive it's support. If this is true

The Biloxi Herald is authority fer
the statement that according to a
gentleman who heard G overnor Lon
gino speak at Scranton recently that
the governor would withdraw from
the race within thirty days. Unfor-
tunately for the governor, as it was
for Mr.. Fox, he is linked with the
supposed political ring at Jackson,
and whether such ring exists or not,
it is hard to convince the people to
the contrary.

Pacific, the state would insist the Great
Northern's charter should be forfeited,
and the Northern Pacific driven out Of
Minnesota.
It was a very dangerous doctrine adj
vanced by the circuit court of appeals,
said Mr.. Grover that securing the power
to suppress competition was doing it.
This meant that the opportunity to COM
NIT a. crime constituted a crime.
The ownership of a majority of stock
gave no control of the acts of a corpora
ton, declared Mr.. Grover. The power OF
control was in the hands of the board of
directors. He reviewed a Georgia. case,
in which the court decided that the hold
ing Of stock by. a corporation outside the
state was legal, tho it came under the
courts construction Of consolidation. The
circuit court Of appeals decided that the
common ownership destroyed competition.
Now the state sought to show that 1t
meant a consolidation. The various anti
trust cases were citd, and the differences
pointed out between them and the case
at bar.
In conclusion, Mr.. Grover presented a
new construction Of the act of 1874, pro-
hibiting the consolidation Of parallel and
competing lines. He said its language re-
ferred back to an act Of 1855. which per-
mitted the consolidation Of connecting
lines. The, 1874 act meant that two rail-
roads should not consolidate under an
other name, in a new company. 1t could
not apply to requirement Of the stock by
a holding company, so long as the rail-
roads kept up a. distinct organiza ton.

ment will be strengthened In Canada, but

be steadily thrown against reciprocity
SO far as all the British colonies are con-
cerned.
1t is believed by those who know him
we'll that altho apparently defeated at
present, he will not be easily downed, but
will await a. favorable opportunity to re-
new his proposition. Meanwhile he will
want all the colonies to hold aloof from
trade alliances with other nations. OF
course his influence in colonial circles may
not be great enough to accomplish this,
and he may be unable in particular to
prevent Canada from entering into the
trade agreement with the United States.

Germany had not even hurt Great
Britain's market in South America,
and when one considered the great
natural advantages Of the United
States, her size and highly cultivated
populate it was marvellous that she
had not years ago attained the first
place in trade. The commerce Of the
United States had progressed indie
pendently of protection; but it had
been retarded rather than advanced
by the adoption of protection.
