HON JOE BAILEY HERE.

Hon. Joe Bailey was here yester-

guest of Hon. Hiram Glass, and
was introduced to the boys about the
city by Mr.. Wallie Henry. The re-
porter had the pleasure of shaking
the congressman's hand, and listen
ed to him entertain a crowd for full
ly 30 minutes, with anecdotes that
sprung up in his mind pertinent to
the subject being discussed.
Congressman Bailey is a man OF
good address, in fact he is all ad
dress when it comes to talking, FOL
he wants to do it all and let the
other fellow do the listening He is
a candidate against Horace Chiffon
and while he did not say so in the
presence of this reporter, we learr
that be expects to clean Horace VI
root aud branch. We have mel
both men, and we compare the two
as solids and liquids. There is some
thing in Horace Chiffon besides
talk, and we believe the Legislature
will find that Chiffon is the man t.
succeed Chiffon We may be mis-
taken, however, but do not fee

Attorney General Smith of Texas,

not the "chump" he has been taken

from him to the governor which he
says he will let the court deal with
the question as to the receivers OF
the Pee Gee openly defying the
laws of Texas, Had the attorney
general done his duty, he would
have enjoined the officials from
moving and declared the charter
forfeited on two counts and made
them defendants in the case at the

officers in Texas, but we can say
that none of them are descendants
of Pccahontas.

Talking about kissing bugs with
Wallie Henry yesterday, he said
that Texarkana had reported the
largest bug of this kind of any 9th
er place he had yet seen mentioned,
He said onathologist so far had dis
covered bugs with four legs and a
mandible that carried poison, that
the bug was a gray black and only
an inch long by half as wide. The
Texarkana bug walked on two legs
and swayed two arms, and its kiss
ing apparatus was not poisonous in
the least, Mr. Henry says the Tex
arkana bug does not trot in the pi-
cipe class, but would be clustered in
the homo genus class, that it makes
its lair on front gates, The bug |
have reference to, says Mr.. Henry,
weighs about 140 pounds, is bald
headed and feeds on the fat of the
land, wears pants and shoes just
like a man. This shows what Mr.,
Henry knows about bugs.

Rev. Daniel ]. Brady, Catholic
priest. Of Jersey City, prevented a
strike Of 200 freight handlers, by
appealing to the good sense and
reason Of the men. Here are a few
sentences Of his strong appeal to
them: "Aud now let me tell you
right here that strikes are drastic
and questionable means of remedy
ing the evils which beset You labor
ing men. Strikes foment passions
of the gravest kind They encour-
age blasphemy and intemperance.
They iufict upon the laboring man
a positive injury by placing him in a
position Of enforced idleness during
which his mind is clouded by anger.
Worse than all, strikes cause pow
erty and turn happy homes into
houses of wailing and misery. Re
member your dear loved ones at
home, dear men. Remember your
wives and children. Do not leave
them without their daily bread,
while you yainly attempt to right a
wrong by means of strike. Re
member strikes breed poverty, mis-
cry and sorrow, and in the end few
of them are ever successful

referred to therein, viz, the
removal of all the general
Offices of the Texarkana & Fort

and also the appointment by the

the state Of Texas as receivers of
the properties of said railroad com

termination. / have advised with

commission whois here, Judge Story,
and have outlined to him the prop
er legal steps to take and he agrees
with me as to the course which
should be pursued
During my absence | noticed
statement in some of the newspa

action in this matter. These state
ments were false and without fOun

determined to prosecute this mat

make public the course to be takel

It's a dull day for Little Rock
when she can't create a few stan
zas of excitement and trouble. The
papers of the state capitol are con-
stantly reporting the horrible deeds
of some murder there and the
crimes of pickpockets and thieves.
And Little Rock also enjoys the dis
tiuction of being place where sui
eide in the river frequently occur.
1t is unpleasant to make a note OF
this in our capitol city, and we wish
the facts were otherwise, But it
stands out as plain as a pike staff
that Little Rock, in this line, is
gaining ground on Texarkana.--

Now, see here, Miss Banner, it is
about time to quit slandering Tex
arkana. No city of $4,000 popula
ton shows a better record for law
and order than this one, and it has
been so for two or three years. II
is true that few years ago, wher
the toughs and whisky element
dominated the city, there was muct
Ilawlessness here and one or more
white men were killed on BroaC
street every month, A decided
change for the better has long agt
taken place, and all men every
where should take cognizance of i
and give our good pleople credit fo
lit. Now killings are no more fre
quent here than in other cities o
this size. Since January lst last
there have been but two killing
hare as good record as could b,
expected where $4,000 people ar,
congregated together in one place
there is bound to be some violenc,
and blood shed manifested Occa
sionally. Texarkana is now con
trolled by the best people-the Law
and order element.
