Democratic Nominee For Governor and
Senator Sneak at Ruak.

Rusk. Tex. Oct 12.--Hon. I. M
Campbell made a speech here Thurs
day before a large audience. Owing
TO his physicians advice he only spoke
short time. He referred 10 Senator
Bailey as the nominee OF the Demo
Gratis OF Texas for reelection TO the
senate. He reviewed the pledges he
made during the campaign. Colonel
Campbell repeated what he has said
during the campaign In opposition TO
members OF congress accepting en-
pioyment from trusts, and said that he
understood that Senator Bailey and
all other nominees were In an agree
ment with him upon the subject,
whereupon Senator Bailey bowed his
assent.
Senator Bailey's speech differed very
considerably from those which he has
been delivering recently. He did not
devote a great deal OF his time TO an.
swering his critics. but after rather
brief notice of them requested any
one In the audience who had any OBJ
lection TO offer 10 his services TO state
II. or any one who desired him % ex.
plain anything TO ask such questions
as he pleased. lie repeated the inyi.
tation several times. promising not 10
make fun OF any one asking such
questions. There being no response
To these invitations Senator Bailey
proceeded TO make Democratic
speech very much along the lines OF
his Fourth OF July address at Abilene.
he was very frequently applauded. and
seemed TO have the crowd with him.
A notable incident of the address
occurred when Senator Bailey de.
nounced a certain accusation as a lie.
Let me tell you. brother. Il Is a
damned lie and God will damn all
liars,' said an old man who had a seat
wei up 10 the front He is Frank Man.
uel. a farmer. who lives near Jackson
vile. He Is seventy-seven years old.
and Is Familiarity known as the "squir.
rel hunter"
The senator paid high tribute 60 the
late Governor Hogg. with whom. he
said. he was In accord.
John a. Kirby and Chairman Garden
also spoke. The latter read extracts
form letter he received from Hon.
J. w. Bryan. one saying III Demo
Gratis were all like Tom Campbell we
would sweep the country" This was
heartily cheered Mir Garden also read
ther esolutions adopted by the Demo
cratic state convention indorsing Sen
ators Bailey and Culberson and de-
nouncing the attacks upon Senator
Bailey.
My friends said he In conclusion,
you can't vote for Senator Bailey. but
as n Democrat you can support the
action OF your convention when IL made
him the nominee" (Applause.)

WAS TOLD
TO Kill

A resident of Grasselli informed
officials here Saturday evening that

The man stated that the letter
was mailed in New York, and, in
sum and substance, its contents were
notice to Manfrida that he must
forfeit his own life if he did not
take the life of noted parsonage IN
this section, and sure enough at the
expiration of the thirty days as stat
ed in the letter Monfrida took his
own life, an evidence that he was
not able to accomplish the mission
delegated to him. This bears out
the assertion of some foreigners at
the time of his rash act that he was
an anar1st.
The man with the letter refused
to show it or to give his own name.
He was referred to the proper of
fetal to look into the matter, but so
