mous' when twenty-six members of the legislature sign a resolution asking for an investigation. There is nothing indefinite about the charges preferred by the attorney general of Texas, and surely they are not anonymous. And if Bailey thinks those charges are nebulous he is the only man in Texas who thinks so.
 Bailey continues to weaken his case every time he says anything. He strives to befog the issue with argument and spacious reasoning when only facts are wanted. His record constitutes a clean slate or an unclean one. If a clean one, all he has to do is to come out from his furtive plausibility and tell the people what he has done. It isn't Bailey's providence to judge of his own actions as candidate for the Senate, but rather the peoples.

A COTTON SENSE VIEW OF
 LAW

"0verruled, oyerrulsd; let me have the facts in this case. Don [ try to tell me the dance hall ordi- nance is not good. I'm going to hold it good, whether it is or not. It's leveled at an evil. The city council and the mayor did a mighty good thing when they passed it.. Let me have the facts in the case. ]"
 If you were not told so you would never guess it in the world that this statement was made as the judg- ment of a court in this age of tech nicalities. Let Kansas City take off it's hat to Judge Wofford, and the state of Missouri make the same obeisance, and the Nation, too, with it's Federal judicatures. Does any layman or judge doubt that this ruling was good law by the standard that "the law is common sense ?"- Kansas City Star.

A HERO OF PROGRESS.

How is Matador Montes today :? Yesterday the physicians gave but little hopes of his recovery" Let US hope that after being gored through the body in the interests of St. Louis leadership in international civilization and progress, he may rally in spite of his seemingly des- perate condition.
 According to reliable advices from the City of Mexico, the speech made by President Diaz in accepting the Louisiana Purchase Exposition med al and diploma was one of the best efforts of hS life. Our St. Louis leaders of civilization joined him in rejoicing that Mexico and St. Louis had co-operated in a great work which President Diaz eloquently described as indicator of the prog ress of the world" '"
 It seems that the bull fight fol lowing these official ceremonies was one of the most progressive ever given in the City of Mexico. It was credit to the city and to the St. Louis delegation. At its most in teresting point, Matador Monies was gored through the body in a way which proved its genuineness to the St. Louis visitors and added greatly to the interest.
 Hence we are interested in know ing how Matador Montes is today, Will he have public funeral, with all the eloquence which ought post humorously to reward one of the heroes of progress? And what be came of the bull? Post Dispatch.

BOY SHOT WHILE HUNTING.
Gun in Hands of Elder Companion Was
 AccidentIy Discharged.

Mammoth Springs, Jan. lo'- At Myrtle, Mo, a small village 16 miles northeast of Mammoth Springs, the 1l-year old son of F. M. Rainer was shot tonight. The lad, in company wi.h Otto Harbister, aged IF, was hunting. The elder boy was carrying the gun. He fell, the gun was dis charg ed, and but for a rail which intervened the boys head would have been blown off.
 Only one shot took effect how eyes, aud the boy will probably recover. Dr. C. w. Culp of this place was summoned to the scene.

ANOTHER BAILEY BLUNDER

An odious comparison is that of Bailey's wherein he is quoted as say ing that a senator from Texas should be accorded the same rights as are given the commonest negro. The attempt to stay the investigation of his relations with corporations by such an empty excuse is altogether unworthy of the greatest constitu- tional lawyer" in Congress. If Bailey has nothing to fear from an investigation he should welcome it If he has anything to fear then he is not entitled to the honor of repre- senting his state in the Senate.
 Nor does Bailey quash the indict- ment against him by the use of con. temptuous adjectiyes. The charges against him can hardly be termed indefinite, nebulous and anonv-

AS TO FESTU5 o. BUTT.

Many criticisms have been offered regarding the course persued by the people of Eureka Springs for giving a reception to ex-Senator Festus o. Butt on his departure to serve his two years term in the states prison on conviction for bribery.
 If there are many who feel as F.. A. Tabor of Little Rock does about that conviction, as stated in the Star yesterday, it is no wonder that the people of Mir. Butts town and coun- ty took the course they did, for if what Mr. Tabor said is true of Mir. Butts conviction it was an outrage and should demand redress.
 The fact, as reported, that Sena- tor Adams, on whose testimony Mir. Butt was convicted, proposes to re- sign his seat in the state senate rather than face that body on a resolution of expulsion looks bad !, conveying the impression that he is not an honest man whose word is worthy of confidence.
 Festus o. Butt may be guilty of the crime for which he is now serv- ing a term in prison we will not say he is not-but it is not hard to understand that with the sentiment existing in the public mind against such violations of law that designing persons, possibly to clear their own skirts, might secure the conviction of an innocent man.

ACCURATE COUNTERFEIT.

 The likeness, as shown by the pie ture, was certainly remarkable-so much so, indeed, that Mark sat down and wrote the following reply :
 My Dear Sir: l thank you very much for your letter and the photo graph. In my opinion, you are cer- tainly more like me than any other of my doubles. In fact, 1 am sure that if you stood before me in a mirrorless frame, 1 could shave by you."

Investigations into the block sys- tenn are showing that trainmen often work long over time. No limit is fixed by the railroad companies on the time man may work and em- ployees are often anxious to increase their compensation. It was found that an engineer on the Baltimore & Ohio had recently worked thirty consecutive hours. In the mean time wrecks are of daily occurrence. Radical reforms are imperative for the protection of the public and trainmen from accidents. Compe- tent men should be employed. They should not work excessive hours and their wages should be commensurate with their duties. The tremendous congestion of traffic greatly increases
