other than that he wa» aa orator of real
power. All these things W"ro scknowl

and outside of It.
Hut when his friends urged him for
democratic leadenship ft was said of him
that he lacked the qualities of flghting
from the floor of the house; that would
T*** f*>und wanting In the knowledge of par
liamentary tactics. And when he was
chosen, the m.-n who h **l said this began
tiie fight which resulted In «i< monstratlng
riot only that Bailey d!*l pos**es lhc**e
qualities, but that, ns compared with h'm,
the others were very much on the pigmy
order.
I heard Tlai'ey himself express eorne.
doubts of his rv-dlr.'ss in the touch-a*id

much figure In the house proceedings, cn !
It was h’s intention, had .-11 things k>m

In this character of fight.ng; but wl.en
the differences came on within <1 mocratic
ranks ho felt that If he delegated this duty
to others the critics would take it as an
acknowledgment of weakness on his part,
and so he did it him .-elf.

The Senatorship Again.
Returning to the senatorial campaign. It
| has been known for some time that Gov-
I ernor Culberson aimed at the succession to
I Senator Mills, and within the Last year
I the candidacy of Hon. J. W. Bailey, the
I <i.i IKK ratio leader in congress, has assumed
t i» i >rc'j and shape which mako him one
I of ’lie most formidable figures in Texas
politics, lia.iiey is young, it is true, but
lie hold his place in the extra session of
cingresr so admirably that many people
I th t the manti.- of Pitt has f allot i upon
Ids shoulders, and that he Is old enough to
lead T. x>s whither ho will. Os course
this state is to> large not to have an
extra supply of candidates, and among
’ll' " rnaj be nr ritioned tx-.M'nistcr Ter
rill. who has just returned from Turk, y
and ex-Governor Hogg. W !io has not quite
recovered from Japan, but the mention
of their num. Is not of serious import.
Constitutional Amendments Ce/cuteJ.
During the post we. k the state has held
an el tion upon the adoption of three con
stitutional amendments which met the fate
common to such mode of action. So little
interest was taken in the election that the I
closing of the s.-ilcons was the <.- iy means
by which tho people were warned of It, and
the result is that a light vote was polled
itnd all the amendments w. re <i.
far as figures received to date Indicate.
One of these amendments was of great
agricultural imjxirtance, as it provided for
th- formation of irr.gation districts in west
ern Texas. Under such a law vast tracts of
land << aid be brought into cultivation.
Another amendnn nt was to autiiorizo cer
tain coant.es to give aid in tl**- construc
tion of railways, and the third was to
validate bonds h* 1-1 by tto state a:-- an
investment for a permanent school fund.
