CONE JOHNSON
CLAIMS VICTORY

Tyler, Tex, May 3.-Cone
Johnson, head of the anti-Bailey
ticket for delegate at large to t e
national Democratic convention,
gave out the following tonight:
THE returns so far received
indicate that the Baily ticket sue
ceeds. When it is remembered
that Bailey said the attack was
on his political and personal in
tegrity, the vote is a fearful re-
buke to him, even if he wins by
%, 900, as he claimed.
.'The result is a victory for our
cause. With only thirty days in
which to campaign, compelled by
want of time and speakers to
concentrate our forces in the pop
ulated counties in the North and
Central Texas districts; without
money to bear the legitimate ex-
penses, our CAMPAIGN has been
.. i -Iile.Ike.Ole oAO.
In the beginning no one
dreamed that we could win. Our
forces were struggling and disor-
gained; we had to get out an
army from those who had fol-
lowed in his. We had to fight a
we'll organized political machine,
and at the last moment Bailey,
who had always been a prohibi-
| zionist, traded with the whisky
interests and announced to them
that he would be against state
prohibition in the coming fight
on that question.
Many of those who voted
for him apologized for his record;
some thought we ought not to
discredit our senator; others that
there was danger to the party in
the agitation. If these be taken
from his votes majority of those
voting are opposed to his meth
DDS.
The fight will not cease until
the principle is established that
a senator cannot be attorney and
advisor of the Standard Oil or the
devotee of Wall street and fren-
zied finance.
"The principle is essential to
all Democratic government We
trust that the country will not
believe that Texas has fallen a
willing victim to these interests,
which have debauched some sec
tons of the country, although
they will scarcely understand the
spectacle of a trust attorney and
the friend and intimate of GRIM
inal wealth assisting in uniting
the national creed for Bryan and
Democracy in this hour of nat
ional struggle against those UNI
lawful commercial combinations
which threaten the freedom of
trade and Cypress the people. !"
