statements made by Representative Len

Representative Bryan in his statement
last night said:
Representative Lenroot says our sep

ship about it He then adds. in sub
stance, that he will stand by the Demo-

measures, and any one who knows Mr..
Lenroot and who reads his statement
must infer that he has nothing whatever
in common with the policies Of Taft or
Root or the Republican National Com
mittec, or Barnes. or Penrose. but he
was elected a Republican and he is 60

TUCKER IS OUT Of
RACE FOR governor
|An6-ersanisatoa Denoeratie Leader
IN Virginia Leaves Field to
Henry c. Stuart.
MACHINE WILL Be OPPOSED

Harry st. George Tucker, one Of the
| 'anti-orEanixation" leaders in virginia,
in q statement issued In Washington last
night. announced his withdrawal from
the Virginia gubernatorial contest He
believes he can be of greater servics
fighting for the Wilson progressive poll
cies In Virginia as private in the ranks
than q general In ONCE.
Mr.. fuckers announcement leaves the
field to Henry c. Stuart. who II sup
ported by some OF the ''organixation"
leaders. but IL an Independent in politics
and a Progressive. The temperance
forces are now hunting for q man to
carry the white ribbon" standard in the
contest.
MIR. fuckers statement is as follows:
L do not expect to be a candidate for
the nomination for the Governorship OF
Virginia in the primary this summer
The proffered support OF many Demo
Gratis all over the State who opposed
my nomination four years ago, as well
al the consistent loyalty OF those who
supported me at that time, with few
exceptions have caused me to waver in
this discrimination. but personal am
bition should never stand in the way
OF the public veal. and I have come
to my decision because I believe I can
be Of greater service to Virginia and
the Democratic party in Virginia, fighting
In the ranks. than AZ a candidate for
ONCE. No one who has followed the
political history of our State can fall
to see our great need for progressive
legislation in order to keep pace with
the Commonwealths around U.S.
If We are to be successful In the
ANTITRUST fight. which has been inaugu-
rated in the country. which has been in
In,
form, and of which Woodrow Wilson
and William J. Bryan today are the
most conspicuous leaders. II must be
accomplished largely through State iegis-
lation. such as has been recently
adopted in New Jersey. The adoption
Of legafized primary law. as well as
stringent corrupt practices act, con-
stitute the most basic needs OF the State
today.
I'm the fight for them shall enlist
with enthusiasm. and whenever can
help in advancing the cause OF progress
i've candidates for the Legislature, and
in exposing the hidden hand Of tho ma
chine In this State-that failing to de-
feat Wilson for the nomination for the
Presidency still seeks to continue to in
trench itself in power in the State-I
shall be ready to respond
With the advent OF Woodrow Wilson
10 the Presidency. and the stimulus TO
the public conscience which his cam
paign and election have wrought. we can
confidently hope for a more enlightened
interest In these great Questions in which
the people OF the State are % deeply
interested. and IL can the better aid in
accomplishing these results by remaining
In the ranks, rather than by entering
the race for Governor. l shall be more
than satisfied with the result"
