ed at some length. The speaker said
Senator Bailey was responsible for
this by advising disorganization
and reorganization of the company,
which was done within one night
and without changing a wagon or
driver. Mr.. Crane said he was attor-s
ney general when the first Judgment
was secured against the company. He
said Bailey and his satellites were
declaring that the company was new
er convicted of being a trust: that
1t was only convicted of making re-
strictive contracts. He said this was
"a distinction without difference. He
said that after Bailey got the com
pany back in Texas the only defense
he had ever made was that he did it
for nothing. The speaker then took
up the loans made by Pierce to Bal
ley to show that he was not work
ing for nothing, He said that when
Bailey borrowed the first amount
from Pierce he became the servant
OF the lender. Judge PoindeXter said
in his speech that Pierce was an en-
bezzler, but no one had ever heard
of Bailey making an accusation of
this kind. That Bailey is still under
the power of Pierce was made quite
apparent at a recent banquet at Dal-
las. When Governor Campbell re-
| sented the address of an open letter
to him by Pierce, Senator Bailey
arose from his seat and stormed at
lthe governor for denouncing his
friend

WEATHERFORD REVIVAL.
Evangelist Walton's Methods Are
Somewhat UNIQUE.


Weatherford, Tex, March 81
Unique in revival methods is the plan
adopted by Evangelist Walton and
his musical helpers, Messrs. Jolly,
Boyle and Smith, in the great reli-
gious meeting now being held in the
First Presbyterian church in this city.
Thursday has been set apart as
farmers day, when religious ser
vices will be held in the courthouse,
Judge Pattison having kindly con-
sented to adjourn court for that pur-
pose. The country people are es-
pecially invited on this day, when
free lunch will be served by com
mittees from the various churches,
appointed for the work.
The Fourth regiment band will
play for the large crowd that is eX-
pected and all the merchants will be
asked to close their doors from 10:45
a. m. till p. m. in order to allow
their employees an opportunity to at
tend.
Thus will the good people carry
the Christian warfare into the very
camp of the enemy of souls.-Dallas
News.
Evangelist Walton and his musi-
cal helpers will begin a union meet
ing in WaXahachie about the first of
May. The Tabernacle will be erected

AN ADDRESS BY CRANE
FORMER ATTORNEY GENERAL
DELIVERS SPEECH AGAINST
BAILEYISM.

Hon. M. NJ. Crane of Dallas for
mer attorney general of Texas, spoke
to large and enthusiastic crowd in
the district court room Monday
night on the subject of Baileyiskl
Although it rained nearly all day
quite a number of farmers came in
to hear the address, which was de-
livered under the auspices of the
WaXahachie Democratic Anti Bailey
club The speaker was introduced by
Hon c. r. Gibson. Mr.. Crane spoke
just about two hours and his speech
was devoted for the most
part to a review of Senator Bailey S
political record, showing that during
his seventeen years in congress he
had never secured the enactment of
a law that would prove beneficial to
the public at large General Crane
submitted the proposition that Unit
ed States senators and members of
the house of representatives have no
right while occupying these positions
TO accept any kind of employment
from trusts and corporations. They
have been hired by the people to pro-
tect them against these corporations.
In referring to the contest now
I
many honest men would no doubt be
deceived into mounting the Bailey
band wagon, which was in control of
Clarence Ousley who had voted for
Mckinley and supported a republican
for congress.
The speaker was roundly applaud
ed when he referred to the fight that
is now being made against Attorney
General Davidson. He said this hon
est mans private life was now being
entered into and falsified In this
connection he said the Austin States
man, John Henry Kirby's paper, edi-
ted by Wiley Imboden, was misnam-
ed; it should be called the Austin
Sewer Pipe.

FEDERAL JUDGES SHORN OF
SOME OF THEIR ARBITRA-
RY POWER.
PURPOSE OF MEASURE
Where State Officials Are to Be En-
joined at Least Two Outside
Judges Must Be
Called In.

Washington, April 14-To meet
conflicts between federal courts and
state authorities, such as have aris-
en- during the past year in Minneso-
to, North Carolina, Alabama and 9TH
er states, the senate committee on
the judiciary yesterday reported a
bill directing the method of proceed
ure in cases where any effort is made
in the federal courts to enjoin state
officials from enforcing state laws.
The bill is compromise between
measures introduced by Senators
Overman, Bacon and the late Senator
Bryan of Florida, and was reported
by Mr.. Overman. 1t has created much
attention at the hands of the COM
mittee and is intended, not only to
lesson the frequency of injunctions
in such cases but to modify and sof-
ten the process when it is resorted
to.
1t prohibits any one federal Judge
from granting such an injunction.
but requires that all applications for
such orders shall be heard by at
least three federal judges, two of
whom shall be circuit judges, while
the third may be either a circuit or
district judge. 1t also requires at
least five days notice to the state
authorities and grants appeal to the
supreme court of the United States.
