HAtIlEY'S BITTER FIGHT FOR ST.
PREMACY IN TEXAS.

There is a great deal of interest in
the United States senate as to the
outcome of Joe Bailey's struggle to
maintain political leadership in the
Lone Star state.
The whole of Texas is reported to
be in the throes of political convul-
sion on the question as to whether
Bailey shall be a delegate to the ma
tiona convention; whether Attorney
Genera Davidson, who led the fight
against Bailey in the legislature when
the latter was accused of improper re-
1ations with the Standard Oh com
pany. shall be renominated and re-
elected. whether the legislature will
be controlled by the Bailey or anti
Bailey element, and, lastly whether
that new legislature shall pass reso-
luton of confidence in Bailey or de-
mand his resignation from the United
states senate.
Bailey opened the campaign which
is to make or mar his political future
in Fort Worth last week. From now
ON until May 9 he will speak six days
in the week throughout the state.
Since the grave charges We're made
against the Texas senator last year
he has continually been Waging war
fare to down the distrust they raised
although the charges We're not sub
Stimulated.
Bailey has had a brilliant career.
Until last year he was the idol of the
entire state. In congress he has
made an enviable record as lawyer
and statesman, and by the absolute
disinterestedness of his motives. He
has wonderful magnetic personality,
is a powerful speaker, and has few
peers rs constitutional lawyer.
His friends in the senate regret
that constituency that once voiced
with vociferous unanimity the pride
they felt in his achievements is now
split and rent with strife
