AFTER
SENATOR
BAILEY

Dallas, Tex, Oct. 25.-A move.
ment which has for it's object the
recall of Joseph W. Bailey from the
United States senate will be launch
ed in Dallas tonight, when State
Senator +. G. Senter, of Dallas, the
leader of the malcontents, will adj
dress a mass meeting in the city
hall.
Senator Senter has declared thai
he will offer In the thirty-titth legis
lature o resolution demanding the
resignation of Bailey, because of his
alleged connection with the Stand
ard Oil company, and will ask the
people of Texas to indorse this
course, both by direct expression OH
their primary ballots and by the cleo
| tion of representatives who are not
only in full sympathy with this pro-
posal, but will inforce the demand
for Bailey's resignation after It re-
ceives the Endorsement of the peo-
pie of Texas and the thlrty-first leg
islature.
State Senator Senter was one OF
| the So members of the thirtieth
Texas Legislature TO vote against the
exoneration of Bailey when the bril-
liant Texas senator was on trial early
this year. He declares That the pro-
ceedings were mere "wbitewash-
ing and that no real investigation
of Bailey's connection with the
Waters Pierce Oil company. an
auxiliary of the Standard, was made
In a statement issued by Mr.. Senter,
addressed to the people OF the state
he appeals for support in his move
ment in The following language:
"Thc members Of this thirtieth leg
lislature who rendered q verdict adj
verse to Bailey performed a most
disagreeable duty, and when the full
history OF that proceeding shall be
written, it will be known OF all men
that in the face of unexpected and
lextraord dlnary obstacles they tough,
for southern honor, as became the
descendants of men whose political
| Traditions were established by Clay,
Calhoun, Lamar and Gordon. To
shrink from the performance OF their
duty was TO earn the gratitude and
the unlimited promises of an un-
scrupulous politician who professed
himself able and ready to confer re-
wards without limit upon those who
gathered about him with proper
meekness, and heralded the wealth
quickly bestowed upon him by the
favor of oil, railroad and lumber in
terests as q badge of honorable dis
tinction.
my own judgment, which would
have been voiced in a report to the
senate but for the fact that Bailey
decided that his interests required
that the senate committee should be
discharged without making re-
port, is that the transactions admit

the darkest pages in the politicaI
history OF the south. The genera

Swallowed a Fish Hook.

Lee Adams, well-known young farmer
of Kentucky, who lives with his father,
Charles H. Adams, near Athens, was in
Lexington to consult with physicians with
regard to having taken from his stomach a
fish hook which he had swallowed several
days ago.
The latter part of last week Mr.. Adams
bought package Of fish hooks at store
in Athens, and took them to his home to
reft his tackle for days fishing. That
night he got out several old lines, and
while he was going over them, putting on
hook or a cork where needed, he held a
fish hook in his mouth. While he had
the hook in his mouth he was suddenly
seized with fit of sneezing, and before he
could remove the hook he had swallowed
it. He is now suffering with great pain,
but the physicians believe that the hook
may finally become encysted and further
suffering be prevented. Mr.. Adams,
however, will probably come in to one Of
the hospitals, where, after an examination,
it will be decided whether or not an opera
will be performed.
