Representatives three times

been endorsed by nearly two
thirds of the States of the Union,
and there is probably not a State
in the Union in which it would
not be endorsed at popular elec-

various States this reform is re-

Here are seven propositions
upon which the Republican party,
in national convention assembled,
has retreated from the position
taken by that party in Congress,
or from the position taken by the
President. What have Roosevelt
Republicans to say? The Presi-
dent has awakened spirit of re-
form within his party, he has at
least revealed to the world that
there are reformers in the Repub-
lican party. Can that spirit now
be quelled by a standpat conven-

Death Of Mrs. Spencer.

Mrs. S. Fl. Spencer passed
from mortal life to life immortal
in the early hours Of yesterday
morning, Just when night was
changing its robe of darkness for
the glory of the coming day.
Mrs. Spencer's funeral takes
place this morning at 8 O'Clock
from the home of her bereaved
daughter, Mrs. j. /. Gotten. The
day marks the 18th milestone
along her earthly pilgrimage.
Beside her daughter, Mrs. Spen-
Ger leaves two sons, Rev. Ivan
Spencer, of this State, and Hon.
VIM. r. Spencer, of Texas.
Mrs. Spencer was born in
Louisiana; but had spent the
greater part of her life in Summit,
Miss, where her friends were
legion. She was Of sturdy mould
strong in character, and in her
influence upon her associates.
She was degout Christian and
an almost Iife-member of the
Baptist church to which she was
ever true and loyal. She was
ever responsive to the calls Of her
church and was a deep student of
tho Bible. Ii was benediction

make this announcement at
the threshold of the campaign, so
that if any aspirants have not yet
announced for Congress on ac-
count of my candidacy, ample
time remains for them to do so.
Just a few words to the people
of the Seventh Congressional Dis
trict before closing. For six con-
secutive terms you have commits
stoned me as your representative
in the Congress of the United
States and for twelve years pre-
ceding this, ] served you as your
District Attorney. For these
marked expressions of confidence,
my heart leaps with unbounded
gratitude to you. I sincerely
thank the press Of the District for
its uniform loyalty to me in the
past, and for its present express
sion of good will and confidence.
Very respectfully,

MIR. MILAN WlTHDRAWS,

The Leader publishes today an
address from Hon. Frank A. Nc
Lain to the voters of the Seventh
Congressional District, announc
ing his withdrawal as candidate
for reelection and giving the rea-
son which Influenced him to take
this step. The announcement of
such a decision on his part will
unquestionabIy be greatly regret
ted by a majority of the people
of his district, not only because
of the high estimate in which lie
is held as a man, but because they
appreciate the value of such an
able and faithful public servant in
the halls of congress and the risk
of making change at this time,
when experienced and tried states
men are so much needed by the
Democratic party in the National
councils.
In The Leaders, opinion per-
sons who would hold Mr.. McLain
Internationally bound by a
declaration made on the stump
two years ago of his intention to
retire from political life at the
expiration of his present term,
are both in error and unreasona-
BILE in interpreting that declara-
tion as pledge as unchanged BILE
as the law of the Medes and Per-
SLAMS. The editor of The Leader
heard Mr.. McLain make this
declaration on two occasions dur
ing his last campaign, and we did
not then and have never since
construed it as an irrevocable and
binding pledge made to any indi-
vidual or to the people at large.
Furthermore The Leader is con,
ident Mr.. MeLain, standing on
his splendid public record, could
easily have won in the race now
on, regardless of all opposition
and objections raised against him
on the above score. His decision
however, to retire rather than be
thought untrue to his word, even
erroneously, by any friend, is but
characteristic of the delicate sense
of honor and of the scrupulous
rectitude which have ever charac-
terized Frank A. McLain alike in
both private and public life
though it will be deeply regretted
1by thousands of his friends
throughout the district on a per
sonal as we'll as public grounds.
