Where Bailey Got the Tip.-Tbe
death in Texas Of the venerable David B.
Culberson has brought forth a well au-
thentieated account Of how the Hon
Joseph Weldon Bailey happened 70 be-
come the most vigilant guard and defender
Of the Constitution of the country. Il is
related that when Bailey as a beardless
boy was first elected to Congress he sought
the advice OF the experienced and clear

proceed to make himself conspicuous In
public life. i desire" the youthful

Judge Culberson was attracted by the
young mans startling frankness. Instead
Of giving way to his humorous bent and
perpetrating a joke on Bailey by leading
him into some ridiculous trap Judge
Culberson dealt with him seriously. My
experience in Congress" he is reported to
have said has taught NE that few
men who go there are well grounded on
constitutional law. Most of them have
been too busy to acquaint themselves pro-
foundly with the Constitution. and few OF
them stay in the House long enough to do
so after they realize the value of thor

had beaten the Cullom forces az every
