ton of Texas met in regular quarterly
session in Dallas today, in the chapel OF
the First Baptist church. In the absence
# President C. c. Slaughter. Dr. h. c..
Buckner was chosen so preside Approx
mately forty members of the board were
present.
The report of Superintendent ]. B..
Cambria showed that more than SIS 900
had been raised for the various objects
offered by the Texas Baptist convention.
One hundred messengers were elected to
30 to the Southern Baptist convention
which opens at Hot-Springs, Ark, on Nav
H. The large representation from TEXAS
is due to the IA y That S25 900 cash mas
been contributed by the various boards

CONFUSION TO THE pLoTraRs.

A special to the Globe Democrat--not
always good authority upon political con-
ditions In Texas--announces that Hon..
Joseph w. Bailey is home from Washing
ton TO circumvent a movement designed TO
commit Texas democracy to views CON
trary 10 those upon which he made his
trimuphan. race for United States SEN
ator.
To what extent this movement has been
tn@ugurated is conjectural. But to what
ever extent ii has been INDUCED, 1t is
Intensely discredltable to its promoters,
and is. moreover, systematic effort to
defeat the deliberately expressed will OF
the voters of Texas.
The Post has claimed all along that Mr..
Bailey's selection for United States SEN
etor from Texas over Mr.. Chiffon was
due to the difference that existed between
these two gentlemen upon the one dis
tinctive Issue OF the campaign. That dis
tinctive difference and distinctive issue
WAS on and by the question of so-called
expansion.
Upon no question with which the de-
nocracy Of Texas has had to deal in mod
ern times have the views Of a public man
been so plainly and vigorously expressed
as upon tue issue of expansion and it's
collaterals Of imperialism and colonialsm
by Mr.. Bailey. Taking a position with re-
spect to H. in the outset Of the coutro-
veTity, regarded as inopportune by cure
ful politicians and against the wisdom OF
his party as expressed in convention ao-
ton, so have argued many OF his critics,
his position has been conspicuously known
to all men. Confronted by this fact no
logical mind can look upon his rapid Sc
lection for the United States senatorshlp
In any other light than as an unqualified
Endorsement by the voters of Texas of
his whole course with reference to this
issue OF expansion" Any set OF men,
therefore. who, dlsgruntled by his sue
cess. shall endeavor to commit the party
to Wow against which the people have
80 emphalically dIsoaimed are moving
through questionable methods to effect
private and fractional revenge and destined
10 FALL under the accusation of recreancy
to the will Of the people, and plotters
against the peace OF the party in Texas.
The people have come to see that ex-
pansion is but a cloak beneath which
is carefully hidden the mad sword of inn
perialism that, II permitted to ignore tho
constitution and those principles OF free
government born in and fostered by the
Declaration of Independence, viii slash
the Republic to It's fall.
Those who seek to controvert the DELHI
crate Judgment of the Independent citizen,
as expressed in the primaries for United
states senator in any such manner as in
dictated by the Globe Democrats special.
or In any other suggested by the resource
OF the political triokster, had as well
know now as hereafter that their plans
can not possibly succeed.

10 the Editor or Inc Post.
Lest some good citizen may possibly
be deceived and misled by the repeated
untruthful and malicious attacks made by
the Herald upon The Post, Prof Kim
brough and myself, and thus indirectly
upon certain gentlemen who are candl-
dates for school trustees, | deem 1t proper
30 make the following statement to the
large and respectable clientage OF The
Post:
No charge or inimatlon made by the
Herald Is true in letter or spirit. | have
never communicated with any member of
The Post stan or with Prof. Klmbrough
concerning the school trustee question
(unless by recent brief commendatory
notice In The post. / have never ask
ed any man to become a candidate nor
signed or seen a petition looking TO that
end.
have never spoken or written to
single candidate upon either ticket con-
corning the question. do not know
how a single candidate voted at the last
election nor how any one OF them stands
with reference to Prof Barnett. do
not believe Prof, Barnett should be dis
turbed II he proves efficient, and he GER
tainly can not be disturbed before mis-
present term expires. | am not and never
have been the attorney OF any book trust
or book company and have no present or
prospective, direct or remote interest in
the election of school trustees further
than ms patron of the school and citi-
zen of Houston. | neither drew nor In
troduced the act of 1899 or that OF 1900
1.-THE present law. but supported both and
have no apology to make for doing So
ThnCa plaiO ~ md
walton or qualification.
There are number OF worthy citizens
on the ticket the Herald advocates and
feel sure they do not desire to have their
cause promoted 10y slanderous charges
against fellow citizen who during his
seven years residence In Houston has al
ways done his part to promote the pros
perlty OF the city and who has never
prohted to the extent OF cent from
either the county or city treasury
The Herald has for more than year
persistenty assaIled me. transgressing
habitually the limits OF truth and jus
tice, and Its editor must have some rea-
son for his malice
IL VIII perhaps be found in my action
as member of the legislature in trying
to enact law that would save the homes
OF hundreds OF poor men in Houston from
being sold Tor taxes, dug up and sued for
AFTER the lapse OF nye ten and twenty
years Had succeeded to the extent
desired (and l am sorry | did mott. IL
