A democratic congressman from
Texas made speech in the House
short time ago, in which he went
after the standpatters in regular
Texas fashion. In The course Of his
remarks he said: Stand pat! Stand
pat! Stand patr although the pillage
of the people never ceases; Stand
pat! although the wealth of the re-
public is by ruthless tariff law
transferred from the millions who
support to the masters who exploit
it; Stand pat although the repub-
lican party refuses to tighten the
tariff taxes which it first imposed as
temporary burden in the years OF
war, to double and redouble as a
permanent tyranny in the years Of
peace: Stand pat!' although the
tariff law itself provides for re-
duction Of its charges; Stand pat!'
although the enormous rates incite
the antagonism of the world and i'm

although Mckinley pleaded from
the doorstep of the grave for lower
tariffs; Stand patv although patriot

Senator Bailey Discredited.
From the Telegraph.Herald.


The exposure of Senator Bailey's
connection with the Waters-Pierce
Oil Co., subsidiary company of the
Standard Oil, was not made until
after the primaries had instructed
for him, therefore the Legislators
were bound by instructions to vote
for him. But while Bailey goes
back to the senate, he is discredited
a convicted mountebank, and shorn
of the respect and influence he once
commanded. Once dictator of lex
as politics, he will henceforth have
no more influence than ward heel
err. His downfall, like that of many
another, is attributable to his over
weening lust for money.
