A HOT TINE
IS COMING
IN THE DEMOCRATIC STATE CON-
VENTION AT GALVESTON UN-
LESS THE PEACEMAKERS GET
RIGHT ON THE JOB.
(Herald Specfal.1

Galveston, Texas, Aug. S.-Dele
gates to the democratic state conven
ton to be held here tomorrow are al
ready arriving in large numbers. The
attendance promises to be unusually
large Though there are no nomina
tons to be made, the state ticket
having been selected at the primaries
on July %, the convention promises
to be anything but perfunctory af-
fair. The dissension in the party over
the prohibition question is such as
to insure a lively gathering, with the
possibility that it may result in a
serious split in the party ranks.
The situation with regard to the
prohibition issue is the most remark
able in the political history of Texas
The trouble grows out of the fact that
o. B. Colquitt, candidate of the anti
prohibitionists, has been nominated
for governor, and that the proposition
to make the submission of a consti-
tutional amendment providing for
statewide prohibition to a vote of the
people demand of the platform of
the democratic party, and therefore
binding upon the legislature, was car
!. ried in the recent primaries by a good
majority
Tomorrow's convention is expected
to be under the control of the prohibit
ton element of the party. With the
prohibitionists in control of the COT
vention the nominee for governor and
his chief supporters may be expected
to take little if any hand in writing
the platform. In this connection it is
expected that Senator ]. W. Bailey
will be selected as the mediator to
bring the opposing factions together
in the matter of agreeing on certain |
planks of the platform. Senator Bal |
ley, however, is not viewed in a very
favorable light by many of the prohi |
bition advocates, particularly by those |
who supported Cone Johnson, prohi- |
bftionist, for governor He is regard |
Led bythem as hsying been largely in |
strumental-in bringing defeat to the |
cause in the matter of the governor
ship through his espousal and support
of William Poindexter, another of the |
gubernatorial aspirants, and, by this
split of the prohibition vote, made pos
sible the nomination of Colquitt.
Unless Senator Bailey or some
other peacemaker succeeds in bring
ing about a peaceful solution of the
problem, developments of startling
nature are, in the opinion of many
well informed and close observing
people, almost certain to result from
the state convention.

When an incident like the follow
ing occurs right here at home, it is
bound to carry weight with our read
ers. So many strange occurrences go
the rounds of the press; are publish
ed as facts, people become skeptical.
On one subject skepticism is rapidly
disappearing. This is due to the &C
tual experience of our citizens, and
their public utterances, regarding
them. The doubter must doubt no
more in the face of such evidence as
this. The public statement of repu-

no ground for the skeptie to stand on.
