Politics are all the talk in our part

Bailey-ites are waging a fierce war
against each other. A great many vo'

to vote. If Senator Bailey is guilty of
what those who are so bitterly opposed
to him accuse him of, he ought not, in
the opinion of the people of Texas,
represent them in any legislative body.
But this is telling tales out of school,
so I'll change the subject by saying
that the big guns of the democracy
will soon be pouring their death deal
