THE CREDIT OF A SENATOR.

Under the heading, The Credit Of a
Senator" the St Louis Globe-Demo-
crat says editorially in part:
1t is such an unpleasant task to as
sail man when he is down that it is
our purpose to speak of Bailey only
upon his confession of being a man
hard up and without credit 1t is bad
fix for a man TO be in. Hereafter, when
any man looks down from the gallery
upon the senate of the United States,
and sees the awe with which the at
taches and fiunkies of that high as
semblage regard every man who sits
wrapped in the toga and the dignity Of
his office; when he encounters the at
mosphere of awful ceremoniousness
which surrounds those sacred pre-
cincts, and meets with that air of
high-mightiness which runs along any
Washington street when a senator
goes by, let him think on Bailey, and
remember that a senator, grand and
oyerpowering as he is in the city of
magnificent distances, may not have
credit for a few thousand dollars in
his LEGAL bank, or find an endorser of
his note for a few thousand dollars
At any bank. THE paths Of glory lead
but to the grave" but if they led else
where they must not be worth travel
ing if man must do it with the con
viction that, no matter how many airs
he gives himself abroad his financial
credit at home is less than deuce high
We are not discounting Bailey. II is
Bailey who is discounting himself He
assured us in his latest statement. and
n his earlier statements, that when
he needed little cash for use on his
stock farm II. Clay Pierce Of ST. Louis,
to whom Bailey was such a stranger
that he had to be introduced to him
by Hon. David r. Francis, volunteered
to loan him the money he needed.
Bailey insisted upon giving him
note, bearing interest, as he would
nave done at a bank But why not
,iave gone to a bank? There are
Banks in Gainesville which clear many
times the amount of the -Pierce-Bailey

ALL BUT HIS LIFE.

If you will read the average crop
mortgage, on which man has Dor
rowed from the bank or some mer-
chant perhaps $50 or $50, you will
find that it covers about everything
a man has or expects to have in the
future. AS an illustration, one before
the writer now, made in favor of
certain city bank, pledges the follow
Ing for an insignificant loan. not
enough to run the ordinary family a
month:
"On all crops, one mare, one mule,
two colts, two COWS, two heifers, one
wagon and harness"
When a man reads that list of stuff
it makes him feel thankful that the
homestead is exempted by law, for
most men who borrow would mortgage
the roof over the heads of the wife
and little ones.
This borrowing habit is a fearful
thing, and curse to the country. And
it is not necessary in land like this,
where every man who tries can make
a living, and something over.

loan every day, and if bank in
Gainesville had insisted upon inders.
ers on a short-time note by Senator
Bailey for money to be quickly turned
over and returned, he could not have
turned a corner in the business quar-
ter of Gainesville without meeting a
man of substance who would have
signed with him and been proud of
the privilege. If not, then United
States senators roost lower in Gaines
Vile than they do in Washington. The
fact that the man who loaned him tn,
money was then financially interested
in matters to be affected by the adj
ministration of Texas government
should have warned him to find an
endorser somewhere in Texas, and
borrow the money he needed from a
Texas bank, than to involve himself in
dealings with a man representing a
corporation under the ban of Texas
law, and seeking to have the ban re-
moved Mr.. Francis, even, might
have loaned him the money he needed,
if asked Bailey seems to have looked
upon Pierce as the only man from
whom he could get a loan. 1t must
be uncomfortable TO feel that your
credit is less than your assets, and to
realize that your solvency is not
worth its face. Senator Bailey is
worth more than $4,000. He is not
execution proof, and is good for a
judgment for several times the amount
of the loan he got in ST. Louis. This
is the fact which condemns him. His
desperate effort to create a suspicion
of false entries in corporation books
is pathetic, in view of the fact that
it is not necessary, in order to con-
denim him, to prove that the corpora
ton paid the money back to Pierce.
The killing fact is that Pierce paid the
money to Bailey. And this fact is
by Bailey himself We do
not challenge Bailey's motive. But
Bailey challenges Bafley's credit and
sense.
