JUDGE SELLS COMMENTS
ON THE GREAT VICTORY
The Splendid Triumph of Governor
Wilson liz Texas Marks Epoch
in Politics of Nation.

Dallas, Texas, May 9-Judge Ca

statement;
| To the Friends of Governor VIII
l son: Ours is great victory. Not
,, alone for our national standard
bearer, Governor Woodrow Wilson
but even greater and more emphat-
ic for the issues involved in this
contest. Men are something but
principles are everything. This
| splendid triumph of our cause marks
an epoch not only in Texas, but in
the politics of the nation.
1t is now conceded by our oppon-
ents, the Houston Post and Fort
Worth Record, that the friends of
Governor Wilson will be in full con-
troll at the state convention, and /
while it is certain that our majority !
viii be greatly more than sufficient |

Is of the highest Importance that
every man who has been elected q
delegate to the Houston convention
shall be personally present.

perform it so firmly and yet patri-
otically as to seriously impress the
real genius of this political revolu-
ton not only upon the entire citizen
ship of Texas, but upon the minds
and the memory of the whole ma
ton.
The Houston convention should
be veritable love feast-the larg-
est held in Texas in decade; an

Let us not forget that with it all
goes the responsibility of our delib-

Some of the political enemies of
Woodrow Wilson are charging that
the New Jersey man is not a grad

admit that they are right. Governor
Wilson has devoted most of his life
to a study of those things which fit
him for any station of usefulness,
Not being a graduated politician, "
in ascending to the high honor of
president of the United States he

FOR A UNITED DEMOCRACY.

There has been fought in Texas
mighty battle, and victory, as We
are able to see it, and according to
democratic way of settling matters
Iat issue, is perched on the banner of
right.
It may be that in some rare in
stances a deep seated prejudice for
or against certain strong person
atty has influenced action, but in
stances Of such influence are few
and so nearly equally opposed that
justice to the situation compels the
admission from every fair minded
man that Texas democracy-not
anti this or pro that-drawn to-
gether in support of those princi-
pies which must form the founda-
ton of a government of the people,
for the people and by the people,
has Joined hands, met the issue, and
won the victory.
Such results as must come from
so decisive victory are too deep
and lasting in their effects to be
attributed to a fractional fight. The
voice is that OF the people, and when
the people speak it is time to heed.
Not for many years has there been
such opportunity for the burying of
q dead past and a reuniting of
friends and fellow democrats who
have been estranged over those
things which should never have
been permitted to exert disturb
ing influence.
But strife and contention must
inevitably follow lineup that is
answerable to personality rather
than principle. The bitterness which
unfortunately became injected into
Texas politics has, 50 all sensible |
men must admit, run its course, and |
t is now time for us all, as a family |
If democrats, to "get down to our

SHIPPERS ANXIOUS
FOR TRAFFIC BUREAU

Considerable interest is being dis
played by the manufacturers in the
conference to be held Friday in Daven-
port to discuss the necessity of one
big traffic bureau to handle all of the
traffic problems in the cities on the
Mississippi from Dubuque to Keokuk,
inclusive.
The shippers of Davenport, Rock Is
land and Moline have felt that there
are some big problems concerning
traffic, which should be handled by a
big bureau with the most competent
traffic men and counsel which money
can buy. The presentation OF the rate
cases before the interstate commerce
commission last Friday and Saturday
showed a woeful lack of unity on the
part of the cities included in this rate
territory. AS a consequence it was
suggested that the shippers from these
various towns meet in Davenport next
Friday and talk the proposition over
