I have no criticism to make of
the action of the committee and fully
believe it was moved to do what 1t
did from a sincere desire to serve the
best interests of the party. But had

didacy that November primary
would be ordered, would not have
announced. My personal acquaint-
ance thruout the State, outside of
my own district, was too limited to
warrant a reasonable expectation of
nv being able to win the nomination
with so short a time available in
which to make personal canvass OF
the entire State. In the canvass
which l have thus far been able to
make l have received such assur-
ances of support as to cause me to
believe that l would be in the run
off, If I had the time in which to-
make SUCH d CdnfdOO VI InC OAbAAS

feel that l should be frank with my
friends, and admit the facts to be
such at this time that l cannot in
justice to them ask for their further
support in this contest.

pressing my gratitude and thanks to
those good and true Democrats who
have so generously pledged me their
support, and it will be my constant
aim in private and public life to

NEWS NOTES.

Twenty thousand unwounded German
prisoners and the dead and wounded
lying in numbers Of which there is no
estimate is the toll of the first two days
drive OF the British and French forces
on the western front. Germans have
been driven from their trenches along a
front of twenty miles. The official Ger
man statement admits heavy casualties
and the loss OF material, but minimizes
the effect Of the Allies victories. There
are two distinct operations, one north
OF Arras and another in the Champagne
district. In the east the Russians are
holding their own against the Austro-
German troops, and further offensive
move is anticipated.
The United States Government will
not permit shipment of arms to reach
independent Mexican bands or border
raiders, and officers have been instruct
ed to see that rifles or ammunition in
tended for Villo or Carranza factions do
not reach filibusters.
The Committee on Armenian Atroc-
tiles, in its report, confirms charges
that as a consequence of a Turkish ex-
termination crusade, more than 100000
have suffered death with diabolical
cruelty.

Fifty Years After.

Fifty years after the last shot was
fired in the Civil War the remnants
of the Grand Army of the Republic
are gathering at Washington in their
annual reunion to be reviewed by a
president and commander-in-chief
of the army and navy of the United
States, who was Southern boy dur
ing the great conflict, born on South
ern soil, imbued with Southern SYM
pathies and the son of Southern
preacher and sympathizer. Wednes-
day President Woodrow Wilson,
standing in the court of honor where
President Johnson stood September
%, 1865, to review the marching
armies of Grant and Sherman. fresh
from the field of victory, will greet,
in behalf of reunited nation and
return the farewell salute (prob-
ably of the bulk of the survivors
who have lived to see their torn and
distracted country reunited, re-
habilitated and reconstructed on
economic lines that have made it
the greatest nation on the globe.
Surely this will present to the

replete with food for reflection upon
the philosophic and doubtless provi-
dental purposes for the cruel and
savage wars that so frequently and
seemingly senselessly afflict the hui

ON DECK AGAIN.

1t appears that the Hon. Joseph
Weldon Bailey has done what every
body knew he would do-again
plunged into the maelstrom of
American politics. The news from
Texas is to the effect that the Hon.
Bailey has announced his candidacy
for a seat in the United States Sen
ate and proclaimed his platform. 1t
was a regulation Bailey meeting at
the town OF Hillsboro, for one fellow
shouted out this shibboleth, with
out which no Bailey Powwow is
success: ''He is the greatest living
American statesman" Now that is
moderate 1t used to be the cry in
certain precincts of Texas that Joe
Bailey is not only the greatest states
man that ever was, but that he is
the greatest statesman that ever will
be.
Mr.. Bailey announces his plat
form to be opposition to socialism
and to woman suffrage. Then he
takes the wind out of the sails of the
craft ColQuitt by declaring for an
embargo on the expectation of mu-
nitions of war until the entente al
lies take cotton off the list of con-
traband of war. He is silent on the
liquor question and has nothing to
say about the tariff.
There is another omission in Mr..
Bailey's declaration. He does not
mention the Democratic administra-
ton and we are left to conjecture
whether he approves or condemns
the policies of Woodrow Wilson
touching domestic affairs. AS pri-
vate citizen Mr.. Bailey is ranked as
hostile to the administration, and
here he is in exact accord with one
Hearst, the stupendous journalistic
blatherskite of New York. The
Cave of Adullam could not have
matched this precious pair, Hearst
and Bailey, now bedded together be-
tween the same pair of political
sheets.
In the Senate Mr.. Bailey was what
one might call a ponderosity. With
an I-am-Sir-Oracle" style he stalk
ed the chamber and fed on ambrosia
little richer than the stomachs of
lesser senatorial geniuses could di-
gest. 1t was impossible for his
henchmen among the smaller Sena-
tors and Representatives to name
him except in the superlative de-
gree. A hopeless ignoramus except
as to law and American political
history, this man was held up as the
superior of Gladstone and Webster
combined as a public figure.
Driven out of politics by public
opinion in Texas, it was proclaimed
with trumpets and with banners
IHdJ Ddil6y WOulu tuNduS Jlc COuI u
house and take captive bench and
bar. He was now heralded as the
greatest lawyer that ever was, or
ever would be. For above two years
he has been in the practice at the
national capital and in at least two
of his cases the newspapers that had
long trumpeted him usurped jurisdic-
tion and sought to instruct the
bench how to decide them. One of
the cases has been disposed of in the
court of final resort with disastrous
consequence to our matchless law
yer and the other is yet pending. 1t
was disgust of politics that drove
Bailey to the bar, and now it is sus-
pected that it is disgust of the
bench that has driven him back to
politics.
