RUN DOWN PEOPLE OF WAXA-
HACHIE NEED VINOL.
The Modern Strength Creator and
Body-BuiIder.


Many people right here in this vi
cinity are all run down and hardly
able to drag about-don't know
what ails them.
In ninety-nine cases out of hun
bred this is caused by overwork, too
close confinement or continued strain
and worry.
A member of the firm of Hood &
Curtin our local druggists, says:
Such people need Ninol. our cod
liver preparation without oil, which
contains in highly concentrated
form all of the medicinal and
strength creating elements of cod
liver oil actually taken from fresh
Gods livers, but from which the use
less oil has been eliminated and
tonic iron added"
Vinol cures conditions like this
because in natural manner it in
creases the appetite, tones up the di-
gestive organs, makes rich, red
blood, and strengthens every organ
in the body.
We ask every man, woman and
child in this vicinity who is run
down, tired and debilitated to try
Vinol on our offer to return money
if it fails. Hood & Curtin, Druggists

THE ANTI-BAILEY CONVENTION.

In it's issue of Sunday the Waco
Times-Herald, commenting editor
tally on Saturdays conference, said
1T were impossible for the faith
full chronicler of important events to
pass over in silence the convention
which assembled in this city on yes
terday. In the first place, it is unique
in American history, possibly with
out parallel; in the second place,
it apparently came into being free
from outside pressure, and in the
third place it could boast few pro-
fessional politicians.
Senator Bailey may be, as his
partisans assert, guiltless of any
wrong, but it is certain that the men
in this convention, backed as they
must be by home constituencies, be-
lieve to the contrary. Men are not
moved to conduct such as character
lied the delegates to this convention
without some compelling cause
some conviction in their own minds
that a great principle is at stake.
Whatever one may think as to
the guilt or the innocence of Mr..
Bailey, there is no escaping the con-
clusion that he has brought on the
democracy of Texas a most distress
full situation. He said at San Anto-
MO that Pierce had fooled him, and
it is quite evident that thousands of
democrats consider that he was
fooled to the hurt of democracy and
of the state.
No other man in Gus history as
people has provoked just such antag-
onism. Two years ago we were all
save here and there some distrustful
person. Bailey men; now we have a
convention, made up of representa-
tive men from all sections of Texas,
to protest further honors to our jun
ior senator. A striking example I'M
der this head is the Hon. Gone john
son, the East Texas lay preacher,
who so eloquently placed Mr.. Bail
ey's name before the Dallas conven-
ton, but who was an active particle
pant in this CONVEX ton.
Regret as we may this disturb
ance in tie demot ratio family, there
is, as already indicated, no getting
around the conCl sion that the par
Elephants in this Ct rention were for
the most Fart actuated by motives
of the highest patriotism. Venerable
men and substantial citizens, loyal
to democratic principles, do not in
| dulge such an undertaking on mere
1 impulse; they believe-believe in all
| sincerity-that our junior senator
has sinned against the common peo-
| pie To be the cause-even the in
nocent cause-of so great distress
and distress it is-would be too
much for the nerves of some of us.
| The meeting of Henry Clay
Pierce and Joseph Weldon Bailey
was more than an incident; it was
an event, the echoes of which will
be heard in Texas for years to come.
The conclusion is irresistible that
the public servant should avoid the
very appearance of evil

reports to the effect that he is chars-

questionable relations with young
woman of Fruita. So far these re-
ports have not been followed by any

clares that he is entirely innocent
