Politics have been lively down in
Texas as well as in Vermont the past
week. There was a deadlock in the
Seventh congressional democratic
convention and 1916 ballots were
taken before the deadlock was brok-
en-. The nominee is George c. PEN
dleton, the present lieutenant gov
ernor of the Lone Star state.

Hon. Henry L. Dawes, the senior
senator from Massachusetts, having
resigned that position which he has
SO ably filed for many years, the
Bay State now has a lively senatorial
contest on hand. A prominent
figure in the struggle for the prize is
William E. Barrett, who has succeed
ed in capturing the speakership of
the Massachusetts house for three
terms and now has his eye
fixed on the United States SEN
ate. Mr.. Dawes has served SO
years in the upper house of congress,
thus ranking with Senator Morrill,
of Vermont and Senator Sherman of
Ohio as a veteran legislator. 1t will
take quite a man to fill his shoes,
and Massachusetts cannot afford to
run too great risk in selecting his
successor.
The republican outlook in New
York state is very pleasing. Ex-Sen-
ator T. c. Platt, to whom the En-
pire state democracy has confidently
looked to make trouble for the re-
publican ticket there by reason of
some personal grudge against the
president, had friendly conference
with Mr.. Harrison and Mr.. Reid, at
the latter's country seat, the other
day, and it was demonstrated that
Mr.. Platt was in perfect harmony
with the national ticket and full of
faith that his state would do her full
duty in November and give her vote
for Harrison and Reid. The republic
an party was never in better shape
for telling work al the polls than is
the case this fall.

Mr.. Shaw followed him for nearly two

In little dark ravine the dog led Mr..
