THE TEXAS REBUKE.

The singing rebuke the Democrats
OF Texas administered TO the Wilson
administration In defeating the sup
porters Of the Presidents policies in
the recent primaries in that State has
thrown CONSERVATION into White House
circles in Washington. And we'll II
may. 1t is great supporting evidence
of the failure Of the Wilson preten-
sions. Senator Culberson was the
anointed one OF the New Freedom Sc
lecteG for the worst pluckiug by the
indignant Democrats of that State, and
former Gov. Colquitt has the feathers.
He il was who declared, President
Wilson's administration had been the
greatest failure in the history Of the
presidency" His victory over Gull
berson is all the more definite, be-
cause he won out over the powerful
forces mustered in behalf Of his. op-
uonent, consisting OF Federal ap-
pointees, including two members OF
the Cabinet, Postmaster General Bur
Lesson and Attorney General Gregory
And do not let US forget the assistant
10 the President, the silent but sup
posedly able Col, E. NJ. House, who
has made and unmade governors and
senators Of Texas al will. Yet Mr..
Colquitt routed all these forces, and
came under the wire winner by over
10000 votes.
We are told by the sapient Demo
cratic defenders Of the administ.a-
ton that Republican criticisms OF the
Wilson record are misleading" one
Democratic Senator going so far as
to stamp them as treason Well,
here we have an unfiltered Democratic
expression on the performances Of that
same administration, which under no
perversion can be represented as mis-
leading" although it may by arbitrary
party standards be classed as treason.
No wonder the word comes from
Washington that the Texas appointees
OF the Wilson administration and
Democratic leaders of national prom
inence regard the senatorial situation
in Texas as threatening TO influence
the voters Of other States. There can
be no doubt about that.
