And we believe this conclusion is
warranted, even though we are un
able to offer any more substantial
reason for the belief than be

Times Herald and say that is the
logical thing for the opposition to
Governor Wilson to do, for being
attracted to the support of the New
Jersey gentleman rather by those
principles for which his campaign
stands than by an individuality, and
imputing to others a like honesty
and saneness of conviction in the
matter Of their favoritism to either
of the other distinguished candidates
for democratic preference we are

supporter of Governor Harmon
could now, Just because his chan
ces of success are diminished, find
himself satisfied with the candidacy
of Speaker Clark. The differences
between these two are fully as pro
. nounced as are the differences be
tween Harmon and Wilson In fact

planning the position of those who
may be directing the campaign
against the New Jersey governor
does not account for the disposition
of the people to allow their con-
sciences and beliefs as to issues in

should be a democrat for cause, and
if there is not there should be rea-
son for the support of either Will

more honorably founded than being
based on a general prejudice, A
democrat can, we hold, be an honor
able supporter of either of the sew

honest conviction must be RESPONSE
BILE for a Willingness to be the sup

widely opposed in their political

down the line, and that it is but
another disgrace to the intelligence

WHEN BossIsM CAN PREVAIL.

Things politically are not going
Just to suit the Houston Post in
Midwife, all of which is perhaps re-
sponsible for this bit of logic: The
man who votes for Professor VIII
son because he hates Joe Bailey ac
composites nothing" Right again,
dear Post But why not go further
and say that the man who votes for
Governor Harmon because of his
love for the junior senator accomp-
fishes nothing. An overdose of love
for Senator Bailey can prove just as
disastrous to Texas and to the ma
ton as can too much hate Being
that kind of a democrat which the
distinguished Junior senator from
Texas is, or is not has gone too far
Texas democrats should at least
have enough of independence left to
be able to think for themselves.
Again the esteemed Post remarks:
There are men in this town who
are going to vote for Woodrow Will
son and next morning apologize to
their conscience for doing it," That
may be true in Houston, but in be-
half of an honest democracy
throughout this great state we must
protest against such an impeach
ment. Believing in the honesty of
those convictions which may influ-
ence democrats in supporting Gov.
Wilson, or Gov. Harmon. or Speak
er Clark or Mr.. Underwood, or, az
for that, any other deserving citi
zen of this great nation, even down
to William Jennings Bryan. we pro-
test the charge that because of hay
ing exercised their convictions in the
expression of a choice their con-
sciences are going to demand an
apology. IF matters drift on as the
Post and one or two other Texas or
