A STATEMENT ISSUED.
Bailey Campaign Committee Gives
Out Forecast of Result of
the Election

WaXahachie, Texas, April 81, 1908
The Bailey committee has the past
week Gt en- receiving returns from a
canvass OF the various LoXes in Ellis
county, which are serv gratifying to
the committee. These returns indi-
cate that the opposition has not
made any inroads into our lines, and
! that the forces, the legions of Sena-
tor Bailey, stand like stonewall y
and while a few here and there have
been disturbed by representations
that are not facts nor borne out by
any evidence, but mere slanderous
suspicion, we find these friends of
the senator, when armed with the
truth about these matters, become
more Jealous than ever in our cause.
The cause of the senator and the
Fort Worth ticket is without doubt
gaining ground Every day we have
reports of men joining the ranks
previously regarded doubtful, and
the committee are quite positive that
the opposition will not carry has
heretofore been regarded as a regu-
lar democratic box in Ellis county.
The committee wishes to warn
the people with reference to anony-
nous circulars containing scurrillous
charges based on no facts whatever,
but having for their purpose an eff
fort to prejudice the people, born of
suspicion and that without bounds
Ellis county will give Senator Bal
ley very large majority and our
friends should see to it that they re-
main at the polls on election day for
the precinct conventions, in order
that delegates shall be elected who
represent the voice of the majority
of its people. Let our people insist
in the interest of fair play that the
convention chairmen at once appoint
the place and time of holding his
convention that they may not be de-
priyed of their rights to participate
therein. Central Bailey Committee

MURDER OF STEUNENBERG AMI
THE SHOOTING UP OF
BROWNSVILLE.
PRESIDENT IS UPHELD
In Maiden Speech Idaho Senator APP
proves ROOsevelt's Action in
Discharging Black Bat
taIlion-Great Speech

Washington, April 21.-Senator
Borah of Idaho, who, as special
council for that state, conducted the
prosecution of William d. Haywood,
secretary of the Western Federation
of Miners, whose trial on the charge
of numbering former Governor
Steunenberg attracted wide atten-
tion last year, yesterday found op-
portunity in his maiden speech in the
senate to express his disapproval of
any effort to secure leniency for Har-
ry Orchard, the self-confessed throw
er of the bomb which caused Steun-
enberg's death. The utterance was a
part of speech by the senator on
the Brownville affray and was made
in connection with a condemnation
of all efforts to condone the offense
at Brownville.
Taking the ground that the testi-
mony showed conclusively the negro
soldiers of the Twenty-fifth regiment
shot up the town, Senator Borah
gave a careful analysis of the evil
dence OF the case.
There was an unusually large
number of senators present on both
sides of the chamber and they care
fully followed the argument present.
ed by Mr. Borah.
