BAILEY PROVES A
PUZZLE To THE
POLITICIANS
Whether He Is to Retire or
Is Trying Shrewd Move
Is Not Certain

Austin. Texas. Aug. 5.-Senator J.
W. Bailey is again the uppermost sub
ject of discussion in Democra tic DO
iltical circles Of Texas The recent
action of the state senate in tabIing
a resolution endorsing Mr.. Bailey's DO
sitfon on the tariff question came as a
thunderbolt out of clear sky The
senate was supposed TO be tied to
Bailey, irrespective of whatever po-
litical course he might pursue. No
better evidence of the trend of the
change of public sentiment towards
Mr.. Bailey is needed than the sur
prising action OF several Of his former
warm and apparently uncompromis-
Ing followers in the senate in openly
deserving him. The most significant
thing about this vote on the tariff en-
dorsement resolution is that the posi-
ton of Mr.. Bailey on that question
had very little to do with it. Mr.
Bailey's change of front on the prohi-
bition question is what caused his SEN
atorial friends to desert him. The
anti-Bailey elements gain of strength
all came from the anti-prohibition fac
ton in the senate.
Is Bailey to Reffref
1t is currently reported that, not
withstanding Mr.. Bailey's public pro-
tesla tons that he will seek reelection.
he has determined to retire from
politics, and that he has picked upon
Mr.. Ball for his successor in the SEN
ate. This report goes on to recite that
Bailey has been offered q big law part
nership in New York and will move
away from Texas when his present
term of office expires. Some Of the
men who give credence to this report
say that in no other way can Mr.. Bal
ley's remarkable political. exploits be
explained. He no longer seems to care
for the plaudits OF the Texas public.
May BE "Cute1 Move.
In the opinion Of some far-seeing
politicians the recent ostensible de-
sertion Of Mr.. Bailey by several of
his friends in the senate is nothing
but political move which has for it's
purpose the bringing out OF candi-
dates belonging to the anti-Bailey
faction in order to divide up that vote
senator. 1t is already practically GER
tain that the anti-prohibition faction
Of the Democratic party will enter a
candidate for the senate. Congress
man Choice B. Randell, an anti-pro-
hibitionist, Is already In the race for
the senate. but he is not likely to re-
cefve the endorsement of the anti or
ganization- The prohibition faction Of
the party will also enter a candidate
IN the contest. Tt Is conceded by OBJ
serving politicians that If there IS more
than one candidate against Bailey the
latter's reelection IS practically as
sured.

Various devices, most Of them ex-
pensive, have been placed upon the
market for protection against check
raising simple and said to be q
thoroughly effective method of secur-
ing ample protection to checks has
been devised and Is in use in the post
office at Los Angeles. Cal, and the me-
chanical apparatus consists OF a type
writer and a piece of ordinary carbon
paper.
In writing checks. the carbon paper
Is simply reversed so that carbon i'm
preston is made on the back OF the

the check made by the typewriter rib

paper on the back of the check pro-
duces the same result as II the print

all the way through the paper, and
whatever is thus written cannot be
erased, either with a rubber or with
ink removing chemicals.
If a copying ribbon in the typewriter
and copying carbon are used, the appli-
cation of chemicals will cause the ink
to run and Will show any attempt which
might be made to change the figures or
written amount of the check.
