]. c. Lynch Of Albany, shackeliord
county, is one OF the 800 Masons who are
attending Masonic lectures in Houston this
week Mr.. Lynch is prominent s,ockman
OF Northwest Texas and has made biz
fortune out OF cattle. He Is an uncom
promising democrat and is enthusiastic
in his support of William j. Bryan. Mr..
Lynch said to Passing Throng: senator
Chilton's Dallas speech did Mr.. Bailey lar
more good than 1t did its author was
supporting Senator Chiffon till real thlt
speech. Now, l am with Congressman
Bailey. know of others who have
changed, also, Just on account OF the
bitter personal feeling displayed by Sena or
Chiffon in his Dallas speech. He lis ened
to Mr.. Baileys arragnment OF his policies
at Fort Worth without making any ade-
quate reply thereto and when Bailey WAS
1900 miles away, attending 10 his duties
Senator Chiffon had the courage 10 make
two hours speech, in which there was
little besides spleen and personal malice.
The democracy OF Texas, In my judgment,
will not countenance anything like this.
Good democrats admire manllness and
Joe Bailey is as sure to be United Stats
senator as he lives. In my section OF the
State there Is practically no opposition to
the Gainesville man."
