From the st. Louis Republic. April ~.
Hon. Joseph &. Pratt. Prose
cutting Attorney Of Ste. Genevieve

Laclede Hotel that he had with.
drawn from the race for the Demo-
cratic nOminotion for Congress in
the Thirteenth District, leaving the
field to former State Senator NJ. X.
Smith, of st. Francois county. Mr..
Smith now has no opposition for
the nomination.
In Withdrawing. Mr.. Pratt de-
clared il as his belief that the Thir-
tenth District will return to the
Democratic column and that the
present Republican Congressman.
NJ +. Rhodes, will be defeated in
November by the old time Demo
cratic majority.
Mr.. Pratt announces that he will
seek the Democratic nomination
for Congress at some future time.
The following statement was given
out by Mr.. Pratt:
] entered the race for Congress
in good faith and because | would
like to represent the people of my
district in that great Legislative
body, but it is now my opinion
that a majority of the people in the
district are for NJ X. Smith, of
Pennington, for the office.
In Withdrawing, wish 10 thank
my friends for their support of my
candidacy and will now say to all
that | withdraw with the kindest
feelings for everybody, and es-
peclGIly my opponent.
However, while ! retire this
time for the reason that think il
is the wisest course, if | live ! shall
at some time in the future again
ask the people to give me THEN
support and elect me to Congress
Above all, am a Democrat
and | withdraw now because ] be-
| lieve it to he the best for the party
will always be found doing my
best for the party, and have ne
fear bat that Mr.. Smith will be
elected next fall by the old tim,
majority"
Former Senator Smith has ear
ried the primaries III Carter, Madi

The next primary will be held
Saturday in Reynolds county. The
