TEXAS MAY HAVE
LARGE COTTON CROP
Floods Did Damage Only in Sec.
tions-May Be a Record
Breaking Year.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Dallas. Tex. Aug 3.-The situation In the
cotton crop of the Dallas district-and, for
that matter. of the entire State-is one of
perplexing uncertainty. The chances are
decidedly more favorable to an unusually
large crop than a small one The tremen-
dous rainfalls of the last two weeks and the
attendant destructive floods have created
the uncertainty. The crop will stand all
the rain that has fallen without serious
damage, II the clear. dry, warm weather
that started in on July 81 continues for a
period of two weeks This looks as If 1t
will be the case. But IL more rain falls
and the cloudy. cold conditions of the last
two weeks are renewed. then the crop will
be almost sure TO suffer irreparable loss.
July rains. in the volume just experienced,
are the most dangerous that can fall dur
ing the cotton-growing season in this sec
tion of Texas. It is just the period when
the crop is on the verge of maturing and
needs the sunshine and warm nights. The
long drought had put the Texas cotton
lands in condition to accept an abnormal
quantity of water, and that is why the re-
cent foods are not likely to prove disas-
trous to the crop as a whole.
The plant as a rule in the Dallas territory
is of robust-almost gigantic-size. 1t Is
waist high in many places and full OF
rank growth. Farmers generally say warm.
clear. dry weather for two weeks to come
will enable splendid fruitage to develop,
and the estimates of yield run as hig;i as
a bale to the acre In the rich bottom lands,

Washington, Aug. 3.-"There Is q buoyant
feeling anmating the hearts of Indiana
Democrats this year." remarked Joseph H.
Shea, prominent lawyer of Seymour, Ind,
and former member of the Legislature.
There Is good ground in my opinion, for
encouragement on the part of Democrats,
and. II L am not greatly mistaken, We shall
surprise our Republican opponents by carry
ing several congressional districts in which
they confidently expect victory. In addition
TO the the four districts that are now rep
resented by Democrats, and that are abso-
lutely safe. we are very apt to win in the
First, Fifth and Thirteenth districts. There
is good chance to defeat Mr.. Corner in
the Eighth District.
1T Is true that good many Democrats
went over to the opposition In 1896 and 1900,
but very many Of them have come back.
and there Is now substantial unity in the
party ranks. I feel sanguine that the lower
house of the Legislature will have Demo-
cratic majority. An excellent State ticket
make the Republicans execute very lively
hustle to keep tn the ascendency."

OF course there are a few calamity apos-

Oklahoma and the Indian Territory should

DAVIDSON RETURNSI
FROM WASHINGTON
THINKS DEPARTMENT WILL NOT
NAME A SUCCESSOR TO Mr..
VAUGHAN IN A HURRY AND
THAT HIS CHANCES ARE GOOD,

Acting United States District Attorney
Julius w. Davidson returned from
Washington last night, where he had
been to press his claims to succeed VIII
liam Vaughan as district attorney.
Mr.. Davidson states that he is delight
ed with his visit to the capital, and he
believes his chances for the appointment
have been strengthened. He was granted
short interview with Attorney General
Knox just prior to leaving Washington
yesterday afternoon.
Il was delighted with Mr. Knox" said
Mr. Davidson. Our conversation was
necessarily brief, but to me it was en-
tirely satisfactory"
o. r. Hundley of Huntsville, who is
also an applicant for the district attor-
neyship, was in Washington with Mr..
Davidson. Mr.. Hundley Will probably re-
main there for several days 1t appears
that the race is now between Mr. David
son and Mr.. Hundley. and because of
the formers record in the department of
justice as assistant district attorney he
feels that he has lead over his oppo-
nent.
Mr.. Davidson does not think that there
will be any very great hurry by the at
torney general in naming the successor
to Mr.. Vaughan. He said that when he
left Washington there seemed to be a
general understanding that no appoint
ment would be made until the return OF
President Roosevelt. He does not know
what effect the Presidents unexpected
early return may have upon the case.
While in Washington Mr.. Davidson was
granted a clerk In his office here by the
department and he has named W. A.
Anderson to fill the position. Mr.. David
son said he would assume charge of the
office as acting district attorney this
morning.
