OF Mr.. Bailey for the United States sem
atorehip, the Waco Times Herald says:
Il Is certainly remarkable thing In poll

racy OF Texas went on record for partial ex-
pansion. Mr.. Bailey challenged tho wisdom OF
such course and is compelling the party 10
say II WIS wrong In Its conclusions Such q
thing does not happen once in generation.
This is strong tribute to Mr.. Bailey.
Measurably. but not wholly so, it is true.
That Mr.. Bailey has stood almost alone
among our public men in timely and Wig
orous opposition to expansion. with it's
promise of militarism and menace to re-
publican institutions, we quite agree. but
he has not Compelled great party 'to
reverse its deliberate judgment"
At the Galveston convention the demo.

the issue have forced the people. has oper-
ated as potential factor in the practical
repudiation OF the State platform view.
That platform. as we have said was adopt
ed in moment when the public judg-
ment was caught In the swirl OF an almost
unprecedented National excitation. Its
practical rejection has come In that pc
Rod OF sober second thought which al
ways follows premature commitment and
is magnificent triumph for the heart and
conscience OF the people.
II is fortunate for the government and
the country that this is true But for
the position OF the National democracy
upon this question OF expansion today,
which is MIR. Bailey's position, We would
go into the presidential campaign without
the one issue which the republican party
contemplates with absolute dread.
