growth of garden truck, wild and cul-

from a standpoint of the presence of
game, than in any. season in the last
several years
Woodsmcn say that there are more
patridges in the woods and along
country roads than al any time In the
last ten years. The country that was
burned over two years ago, when fires
were numerous, is now covered with
growth. Very little territory was
burned over last fall so the partridges
have plenty of feeding ground and
cover. The spring has been favorable
for rapid growth of shrubbery and for

plentiful.

SENATOR BAILEY WILD RETIRE.

Senator Bailey. of Texas has issued signed
statement that he will not be a candidate
for reelection TO the United States Senate.
After FIVE terms In the House of Representa-
tives he was elected to the Senate in 1901
His present term will expire March 3, 1915
Mr.. Bailey has gained considerable distino-
tlon by reason Of his conspicuous abilities AS
an Interpreter Of the organic law of the nation
he is considered without peer in the Senate
and his remarkable powers in debate havo
given him a national reputation. Since the
death Of MIR Carmack Of Tennessee. he has
stood without a rival upon the Democratic
sido Of The Senate until the appearance Of
John sharp Williams Of Mississippi. It is
generally conceded that MIR Williams
contests with Mr.. Bailey the right OF Intellectual
precedence among the Democrats.
Mr. Bailey has unfortunately achieved TIA
unenyiable distinction OF being suspected as
out Of sympathy with the Democratic party. OF
late years his course has led to the accusa-
ton of being partial 10 the interests and other
wise obstructlng the success OF progressive a.
gsIatIou. 1t is certain that his influence aud
his votes showed him to be not in accord With
his party In their efforts AT tariff revision
during the recent special session Of Congress
Perhaps no man in public life has been SC
subjected to scathing criticism OF late as
Senator Bailey In his own state. we'll as
throughout the whole South he has been
vehemently denounced for what IS termed his
political treachery to his party. He seems to
have scarcely a supporter left among the De
mocratc papers Of the country
Considerable opposition to his reelection Is
also developing in his State. and 1t Is doubted
by many If he could be returned to the Senate
should he again offer himself
Perhaps the knowledge of these conditions
has moved Mr.. Bailey to announce has retire
ment We commend both his Judgment and
his taste. Having unquestionaby forfeited the
confidence Of a large number OF Democrats and
finding himself ont OF harmony. with his party
he deserves n large measure Of respect and
public approval in refusing to stand for ro
election.
We trust that Texas will seize the oppor
tunty Of adding one moro senator 70 the
number Of those whose sympathies are now
with the people and whose activities will b.
directed to the enactment of Legislation that will
contcmp plate tho larger good OF the nation
rather than tho enrichment and special privi
lege OF the few.
