BAILEY is A CANDIDATE.

The esteemed Bryan Eagle replies
to our criticism OF its persistence in
hammering away at Senator Bailey by
stating few of its reasons for dislike
OF the senator, which 1t claims is polit-
ical and not personal. The Examiner.
Review understands and appreciates
the reasons incorporated in The
Eagles reply, but that has nothing to
do with the proposition at this time.
Senator Bailey is not candidate for
any Office, nor will he be for some
time to come. In the meantime he is
one Of Texas senators and has duty
to perform. Is 1t good judgment to
continue to assail him on all sides,
and Is such a course calculated to in
crease or impair his usefulness?
That is the point. 1t has been proven
thousand times that no amount Of
criticism can cause Bailey to change
his views. He has passed through the
fire ordeal numbers of times and it
had no appreciate effect upon him.
Then will this eternal knocking and
criticism accomplish any good for the
people? If his scalp must be had
later, go after 1t at the right time and
not keep the pot simmering all
through his term. No man on earth
can be of real service when it be-
comes necessary to constantly sleep
with one eye on his enemies. The
Eagles criticism of the senator In the
main has been dignifled. There are
many who are bitter to the point of
making themselves ridiculous and
there are others who are guilty of the |
most contemplate of all criticism
that of assassinating mans charac-
ter Almost any other man than
Bailey would have thrown up the
sponge In disgust. No matter how
much we might dislike Bailey, it oc-
ours to us that this is not the time to
hammer him.--Navasota Examiner

According to the recent report of
the bureau of census on the silk in
dustry, the United States imported
I24,7OS,260 pounds of raw silk during
1909. Japan was the ehaviest contrib
utor, supplying us with one-half the
total quantity imported, and we paid
the mikado's subjects $42,305,934 for
their raw material. The climatic con-
ditions in this state are the same as
Those of Japan and the silk worm is
known to thrive in Texas. We can
easily add a hundred million dollars
to our annual products by giving this
little insect an opportunity to work in
Texas.
The idea that anyone can run a
farm successfully without any trained
knowledge Is most mistaken one.
There Is, Of course, now and then, a
man who has special gift for making
things go in any line without much |
knowledge for the work, but the con-
trary is generally the truth, and the
farmer should prepare for his agricul-
tural career with as much care as the
professional man in other lines.
The preliminary statement of the
general results of the United States
census for 1909 of the establishments
engaged in the manufacture of silk
goods, just issued, shows the United
States to be the largest silk manufac.
turing country in the world, with the
possible exception of China, for which

Lead PoisOnin" i'm Illinois

Lead poisoning is more common in
Illinois than in England and Germa-
ny American manufacturing meth
DDS are more dangerous than Europ-
can. This is due to the general ig-
norance OF the hygiene of lead trades
on the part Of employers and to a diff
terence between employees in Europe
and the United States, but it is also
largely due to the fact that the medi-
cal profession in this country has as
yet given little attention to the prob
lem of industrial diseases These con-
clusions appear in an article by DR..
Alice Hamilton of Chicago in the
journal of the American Medical AS
sociation of April 20. DR.. Hamilton
gives the results Of the Investigations
Of the Illinois Commission on In
dustrial Diseases, of which sho is a
member, and says that there are over
seventy industrial processes in hi
nois in which lead or its salts are
handled and which have caused lead
poisoning in recent times. Among
these occupations are some of the
more unusual industries, such as the
making and selling of wall paper,
brass and nickel polishing, cut glass
finishing, work with aluminium foil in
photography, zinc smelling, wrapping
cigars in tin foil, enameling bath tubs.
laying electric cables, assembling and
recharging old storage battcrw plates
and polishing coffin handles. The
commission has reported 578 cases
of lead poisoning which probably rep
resent only a fraction of the real
number. \ comparison of the preva-
lence of this disease in Europe and
Illinois shows that it is much more
common here in proportion to the
number Of men employed. For in
stance, one of the large white lead
factories in England, which employs
1872 men, did not have a single case of
poisoning during 1910. A Dusseldorf
factory had two cases among $50 en-
ployees An Illinois factory, out Of
142 employees, had twenty-five cases
last year; one employing seventy to
eighty men had eleven cases in two
months In NeWcastle-On-Tync
England, 1920 persons were employed
in 1910 in lead works; five cases Of
lead poinsoning were reported, or
one in 264. During the same year,

turned in a considerable amount of
money to the Athletic association
the school has decided to use por-

extra four men.
The following men will so from

BOILERS AND BODIES.
Alike In Many Respects In the Treat
ment They Require,

The boiler has certain temperature
corresponding with the working pres
sure it is desirable to use and for
which it was constructed.
The body has its normal temperature.
Any variation above or below this
means too high bodily pressure or a
reduced vitality.
The fuel put into boiler should be
that which it is designed to burn. DIFF
ferently constructed boilers will not
economically burn the same fuel.
The body should receive the food it
is best able to assimilatc. Diverse con-
situations require diverse nourishment
A boiler should he fired with small
equal quantities of fuel at stated in
tervals; large masses irregularly fed
are fatal to satisfactory results.
The body should be fed similarly;
overlooking the stomach produces i'm
perfect digestion and deranges our
physical systems.
Boilers are insulated by brickwork,
cellular asbestos. etc, to prevent loss
of heat by radiation.
Cellular tissue and fat aid in main
tanning our normal temperature.
Some boilers well designed produce
good results with a small fuel con
sumption: others are less economical.
The more perfect the boiler the less
the consumption of fuel.
Some individuals are SO constituted
that they exist on small quantities of
food: others in the same circumstances
consume much more The more per
feet the physical development the less
the food required.
The above data, intclligcntly used
govern good boiler practice.
The above will also secure health

BARON De CONSTANT
ON world PEACE
From the German Point of View,
England Is the Only Danger
Cloud

CHICAGO, May 2.-Baron de Con-
slant, of France, spoke tonight be-
fore the University of Chicago on
the subject, "World Peace" Fol-
lowing is an abstract of his speech:
AT present the sky is comparative
ly clear. A few years ago, on the
other hand, everything was going
to the dogs. People who claimed to
be well informed insisted upon it as
an aXiom--and will so on insisting
that Germany is on the lookout
for the first opportunity of making
war on France. Germany's victory
was a deceptive victory, we are told;
b tn countries keep up armaments
which compel all other great pow
ers to follow their example and live
in IL state of insecurity which can
have no end but revolution and
ruin. That is perfectly true; but
how would another victory for Ger
many, admitting such a result to be
a certainty, produce any different re-
suit? War is no longer the solution
of a problem. 1t leads to nothing
but reprsals and always has to be
begun all over again. These truths
are now universally recognized. Ger
many is no more inclined than
France to dispute them. The two
governments will not embark light
heatedly upon a policy opposed to
their duty, to their interest and to a
national and universal sentiment.
The Real Danger.
1.-The real danger lies in the riv-
airy, antagonism and incompatible
ity between Germany and England.
From the German point of view,
England is the only danger cloud,
and vice versa The development of
German commerce is peril to
British interests and places on Eng
lands 81 uder's a burden of naval
and military expenditure which is
steadily becoming heavier and more
unpopular. The end of it will be,
we are told, that England will stake
everything on single cast of the
dice and, rather than go on living
in state of unbearable uneasiness,
she will take advantage of the pres
ent superiority of her navy and seize
the first opportunity to attack Ger
many and bring her to her knees.
Even if England does not actually
look for war, she is ready for it or
resigned to it; and should some UNI
seen event occur, such as the one
that brought Russia and Great Brit
ain into conflict some years ago in
the North Sea, between the British
and German fleets, il would be i'm
possible to avoid a conflagration and
