David w. Hill, one of the Republi-
can candidates for the nomination fol
Congress in this district, has issued q
statement in reply to the report that
he is planning to withdraw and sup
port Henry Wilson of Ava. Mr.. Hill
brands the story as political fake,
circulated for the purpose Of injuring
him.
Republican leaders In this county
did not take the story seriously at the
time of its publication. In Mr.. Hills
statement he says he will carry ten
of the sixteen counties in the district
over both of his opponents.
According to leaders in this county,
he will carry the Cape and the county
over Robert J. Smith Of Dunklin
County and Henry Wilson of Ava.
His statement follows:
"a Cape County friend telegraphed
ne yesterday that there was rumor
that l contemplated withdrawing from
5he Congressional race.
81 may be defeated, but | will never
Tithdraw-I am not gutter. Furth-
ermore, there is no earthly reason why
should withdraw. So far we have
been unable to locate even one vote
FOR one of my opponents in any one
IF eight counties, and my other Oppo-
nent is in as bad a fix in seven
counties, while reliable reports from
friends throughout the district claim
that | will carry ten of the sixteen
counties in the district over both oppo-
nents, and / hopefully expect to be
nominated and elected. This with
travail rumor can only be classified as
! fake campaign story made out of
whole cloth" The story has 70 foun-
latiOn, in fact.
81 take this opportunity to caution
he vctcrs in regard to campaig>
tories, especially those that would
effect upon any one of the candidates.
# some one insists on doing out to
you q story which would naturally
tend to iniure my candidacy, I trust
hat you will ask him to put his story
n writing, sign it and then you car
nail it to me and l will promptly fur
lish you my answer, and then you can
make up your mind as to its truth o.
'alsity, and thus give me a chance to

SEEKS DAUGHTERS
AFTER Is YEARS
Girls Left Convent But Parent
Never Called For
Them.

Memphis, Tenn, June 9.-Searcking
for his two daughters, whom he placed
in convent here fifteen years ago,
Anderson Goodman, an aged man who
lives in Florence, Ala, arrived here
after having worked his way down the
Tennessee river and thence down the
Mississippi river to Memphis.
He went to the convent and asked
about his girls. He was told they had
left some years ago, but the sisters
promised to try and locate them for
him. The old man explained he could
not read or write and the only way
in which he could hope to find them
by himself was to continue tramping.
"My wife was killer in an accident
said the old man, land l could not give
my girls the care of a mother that
they should have. l brought them to
the convent. Lilly was IL years old
and Parilee was IA. l saw them last
in 1908, when l visited the convent for
