st. Louis, Mo-, May 27.--John FL.
Curran, former state immigration
commissioner and candidate for the
Democratic nomination for railway
and warehouse commissioner, to-
night announced his withdrawal
from the race and also from the
Democratic party. He said:
MY reason can be briefly stated.
am a Roosevelt progressive. | am
convinced that Roosevelt will be
the next presidential nominee of
his party and | shall expect to vote
for him. With Mr. Taft as the Re-
publican nominee | should have
been content to take whatever of
progressiveness | might find in the
Democratic party but the candi-
dacy Of Mr.. Roosevelt has called
for the undivided support OF all
progressives in the country and
this, coupled with long and close
friendship with Gov. Hadley, whom
II hope to see the nominee for
vice-president, forces me, in fair
ness and honesty, to retire from at
tive participation in opposition to
my belief and give up my ambition
to fill an office n which | had hop
ed to make a record from busi-
ness standpoint"

He viii 60 to Voters
for Redress

Hoboken, N, j. May ~. The
campaign into which Theodore
Roosevelt plunged three months ago
when he announced his Willingness
to accept the Republican presiden-
tial nomination practically came to
an end. tonight. 1t ended with q
booming welcome to the Colonel In
Hoboken.
1t was the final rally of the New
uersey campaign. From now on
Col. Roosevelt will direct his atten-
ton to the marshalling OF his forces
for the battle to be waged in the
Chicago convention. He said he
would not go into the states which
are yet to elect their delegates.
Col. Roosevelt's final appeal be-
fore the primary election in this
state, tomorrow, was in reply to the
assertion that he was disloyal to
the Republican party and was at
tempting to work its ruin. He said
he would appeal, If necessary from
the Republican National committee,
to the people.
"The Republican party would
have died of dry rot If we had not
made this fight" he said. THE Ma
tional committee is composed OF
forty odd politicians will appeal,
If II is necessary, from the Judgment
of the politicians of four years ago,
to the judgment Of the people OF to-
day, 1t is treason to take the ma
chinery of the party from the peo-
pie"

Newark, N. j.. May 27.-The
New Jersey state primary election
tomorrow will bring practically TO
close the spectacular campaign for
the presidential nomination that
has resulted, this year. from the
adoption by several states of prefer
cnce laws The South Dakota
primaries still are in the future.
but it is believed that the voting
in New Jersey, tomorrow, will mark
the end of the personal appeals
that Roosevelt and Taft have voiced.
This state will choose twenty
eight delegates to each national
convention, four at large and two
each from the twelve congressional
districts. Each district elects its
own delegates but the deiegates-at-
large are elected by the vote of the
whole state The primary law also
permits voters to express a personal
choice for a presidential candidate.
but this preference vote has no
direct bearing upon the division OF
delegates s
Three ON Ballot.
The delegates to be voted for are
pledged to Taft, Roosevelt or La
Toilette, on the Republican ticket,
and on the Democratic for
Gov. Wilson or "uninstructed." The
Democratic fight has been only
between Gov. Wilson and his OPP
ponents In the state.
The Republicans found no state
issues to aid them and have made
their campaigns largely on per-
sonal grounds,
Gov. Wilson tonight declared
that he would win the full state
delegation with the possible excep-
tion of members from Newark, the
stronghold of former United States
Senator Smith, whom the Governor
opposed for reelection.
Col. Roosevelt closed his tour,
tonight, but President Taft Will
speak right up to the hour OF the
opening of the polls, making tour
of the farming and shore towns in
the lower part of the state.
The polls open at p. m. and

This afternoon, at 3 o'clock, the
Tennessee League, for the first time
in it's history will open in Cairo.
Cairo and Paducah will be the op-
posing teams. et4s
The merchants of the city, who
have the interests of baseball and
the advertisement of the city at
heart, have agreed to close for the
afternoon. Most of them will join
in the automobile parade, which
will assemble at the foot of Wash
ington avenue at o'clock.
The Cairo team will be one OF
the best during the season of 1912,
Manager Carl Pace has gathered a
fast bunch of boys and trained them
to the minute.
The Lineup.
He probably will line up the team
as follows;
McClintock, second base; Lewis,
short; Kinser, center field; Hughes,
first base; Taylor, catcher; Dewitt,
third base; Walters, right field,
Smith, left field, and Binkley or
Weakley, pitcher.
For the opening, besides the
crowd of local bugs Paducah will
send a big crowd here to root for
Nairn's team. The Cairo and the
Paducah teams long have been
rivals and will fight hard for the
ascendency this season.
Although Manager Pace has an
nounced Weakley or Binkley as
pitchers for this afternoon, he may
pitch new man. Pitcher Love,
who was turned over to Cairo by
the Memphis team is expected to ar
rive at any time Love, according
to Manager Bill Brainaard of the
Memphis team, is a good man, but

for the Southern league team.
