led this fight against Texas. The leader in this fight is the man who had this telegram published lying on the legislature, claiming that it was corrupted by wine, women and song. Hearst has emissaries and agents in the Tex as legislature today. This Hearst campaign means that they want to eliminate men like me and John Sharpe Williams and place men like John Duncan.
 If l live not one of these men shall ever hold office in Texas again. as l shall devote my time to see that they don't get in. This crowd voted today as they did upon the first ballot against me.
 How many of these men were like Hawkins, who risked his office on his convictian and he lost 1t? If these others had the convictions and courage of Flaw kins there would not have been a single vote against my vindication here today.
 They seek to destroy my use- fitness, but thank God 1 am too far above them to hurt 1t.
 Not a sentence Tn the whole record reflects against my per sonal or political integrity. And yet they still vote against ne.

Bryan Would Buy Railroads

Omaha, Neb. Henry M. Whit nev. of Boston, democratic nom inee last fall for lieutenant gov ernor of Massachusetts, and Will liam J. Bryan, engaged in a spir- tied colloquy at the Omaha Club on the subject of government ownership of railroads. It was at dinner attended by them and several other prominent demo- crats of Nebraska.
 T am director in the Boston X Maine Railroad" said MT. Whitney, and yet can conceive of there being virtue in the theo- ry of government ownership, but, Mir. Bryan, before you can suc- ceed in securing the endorsement of the east of your scheme you must couple with your advocacy of government ownership the specific declaration that you pro- pose not to confiscate property, but to pay for 1t at it's full value. v
 Mr. Bryan assured Whitney he and his friends had no thought or intention of confiscation, and would not tolerate such system.
 But the difficulty would be, ' said MT. Bryan, determining the actual cash value. The railroads would want to run in their water ed stock.
 The proper method would be, rejoined Mir. Whitney, to pay for them on the basis of the cost of production.
 Mr. Bryan asked Mir. Whitney if he believed government own ership of railroads possibility, and Mir. Whitney replied:
 Yes, if the Harrimans and the Hills keep on at work. They are promoting this cause more than any other power. They are driv- ing people to believe in the neces- sity of government ownership as a relief from oppressive private ownership. But 1 believe gov ernment regulations would meet the requirements.

Senator Bailey

By vote of 70 to 40 Senator Joseph W. Bailey was exonerated by the lowe~ house of the Texas legislature.
 After the vote was taken Sen ator Bailey was carried to the the speakers stand where he de- livered himself of the following:
 You have just concluded the most remarkable campaign ever witnessed in any state of the American union, and be it said to your honor that you have con cluded it in accordance with the will of the sovereign people.
 'The conspirators have been given a wholesome lesson. Never again will they attempt 1t in this generation. Never again will they wear the honors of Texas democracy in their life. Such men would betray a republic If Hessians were for hire. The leader of the contest was man who has gambled with negroes, and if he attempt to deny 1t, l will prove it on him.
 One of them was convicted of embezzlement and yet he is here drawing his cloak about him say ing he cannot keep the democratic commandments.
 These are hard words and l intend them to be. l wish had words of hate with which to crit icise them. See what they have done. They have lied about me. Their master is Hearst, who has

The penitentIary board are in muddle about the election of a superintendent of the reform school. There were two candi- dates for the place Mir. r. F. Chappeil of this city, and MT. Chestnut of Fulton county. There are five members of the board and of course three would elect, and it seems that Mir. Chappell had the necessary three pledged to him: but when the result was announced Chestnut had three votes and Chappell had only two votes. notwithstanding three men declared they had voted for Chappell. They must have been using some old ballot box that had become so accustomed to tricks that it is impossible to hold a fair election with that box. If this is not the explanation, we give 1t up.

That Cigarette Bill

Through the courtesy of Prof. Dunaway we are in receipt of a copy of Mr. Mckenzie $ anti cigarette bill.
 Section 1 of this bill makes 1t unlawful to manufacture, sell, offer for sale, keep in possession for the purpose of sale or to give away any cigarette or cigarette paper.
 Section Z provides penalty of not less than ten nor more than two hundred and fifty dollars for violation of this act.
 Section 3 gives justices of the peace jurisdiction of violations of the act and makes 1t the duty of circ dit judges to charge the grand juries with reference to the act.
 This seems to us to be a good bill. It places the penalty where 1t should be-on the vendor and not on the boy.
 Section 3 is surplusage; because justices of the peace would have jurisdiction even if the bill did not say so, and 1t is now the duty as well as the practice of the circuit judges to give all of the criminal law in their charges to the grand jury.
 We have been told that 1t was believed that a short paragraph in the Picayune of two weeks ago was intended as an attack on this bill. We do not see how any sane person could think so.
 One man said that the reason was that he thought Mir. Bush would oppose anything that MT. Mckenzie did, just simply be cause it was MT. Mckenzie.
 This man does not know MT. Bush.
 Mr. Bush tries to favor what is right and oppose what is wroLg, There is no place in his history or his conduct that could justify such a violent presumption.
 We suspect that the parties are guilty of the same offense of which they accuse MT. Bush. They are so ready to find fault with Mr. Bush that they read into his statements things which the language does net justify in order to accuse him of a sinister purpose.

The house of representatives has passed a resolution extending the session sixty days. Some people will be disposed to criti- else the action of the house, but the fact is the time has passed in Arkansas when a business ses- sion of the legislature can be completed in sixty days. There are one hundred members in the house and every one of them has some measure that he believes should be passed by all means; each one of the bills must be read three times and a great deal of time is taken up in motions to amend, to indefinitely postpone, calling the roll, etc, and it can not be helped.

 On the following day some of the representatives on question of personal privilege, delivered themselves as follows:
 Representative Samuel John- son, one of the minority, declar- ed Senator Bailey was "a willful, malicious and premeditated liar. v
 Representative R. M. Brown said if he had been present when the vote was taken to vindicate the senator he would have voted against 1t. '
 Representative Beattie said MT. Bailey's Mississippi record was not favorable, and offered to pay the expenses of any member of the legislature who wanted to go to Mississippi and find out about 1t.
 Representative Mead of Smith county assailed Senator Bailey and said his utterances against the minority were false. '

WHEN He ORDERED LEMONADE
Kansas City Residents Were Going to
Shoot, Said This Writer.

The other day man was rummag-
ing through a secondhand book store
on Twelfth street, when he came
across a narrative which was written
by a travelling scribe away back in
'57. The historian tells of his ar
rival in Kansas City, and gives some
details concerning the village which
are very funny.
The author says that after stalking
out his live stock near the river. he
walked into the village to see what
he might see. He speedily got ac-
quainted with the editor of the local
paper" and they repaired to a shanty
made of hemlock slabs (where did the
hemlock come from?) where the edit
or, with true journalistic courtesy,
which age doth not wither nor custom
stale, asked the visitor what he would
have.
The latter evidently belonged to the
w. c. T. u, for he called for lem
onade. Whereupon, the editor rushed
him out of the place into secluded
spot, and said, hoarsely:
Don't you know it's as much as
your life is worth to ask for such
drink in this town? Three men were
drawing their guns and were going
to wing you when rushed you out. ;"
This yarn is related as a fact by
the gifted descendant of Ananias who
wrote the book.-Kansas City Star.
