We believe that ex-Senator Bailey should not
be elected Governor of Texas but we take very
little interest in all of this talk about his in-
eligibility. If the majority of the people who
understand the geustion of his residence in Wash-
ington decide they want him for Governor, why
then be will be Governor. We believen that his
residence outside of the state is a good rean for
voting against him—but the ballot box must de-

trance on East Austin Street and for those who.
are timid we wish to say that the interior of the
farmer’s products is paying a high enough price
already but the farmer is not getting his part. It
is consumed in profits that go to the non-pro-
ducer.
The cotton crop for this year should bring at
least 50 cents per pound, it is selling for much
more than that right now in Europe while th;
present price is around 35 cents to the farmer.
Warehouses should be provided in which to store
cotton until a price can be had that will show a
profit. The women and children of the South by
their toil in the fields have made it possible for
the rest of the world to be clothed. It’s time to
call a halt. We have legislated to protect the
women and children in the factories and offices,
let’s give the women and children of the farms
an equal protection. And the way to do is for
the farmer to quit selling his products below cost
of production. To do this he must have a sensi-
ble way of marketing what what he produces.

Prohibition has increased the attendance at
picture shows 50 per cent according to the opin-
ion of expert film men. More than one billion
dollars were put into homes last year by people
who never owned homes before. This country
spent $2,500,000,000 for strong drink in 1917.
This money has gone into legitimate trade and
has overwhelmed the economic situation. We
have to adjust ourselves to the changed condi-
tions. This great volume of money turned into
new channels has caused inflation of values and
in many cases extravagance. But there are no
longer any bread lines or soup houses. There is
no poverty in this country except where some
misfortune has stricken a family. More children
have full stomachs, more women and children
are comfortably clad than ever before. And pro-
hibition has come to stay. There are a good,
many bootleggers and illicit distillers yet to put i
in jail, there are still a few confirmed drinkers
to bury, but homemade liquor and wood alcohol
are thinning them fast
The Christian Science Monitor estimates that I
there are 5,000,000 people in the United States
that should have homes and figures it that in
less than ten years prohibition Will have caused '
4000,000 tp secure homes. England mg sent
experts to this country to study, prohibifion and
they have just made their report to the English I
government. The reports starts with these j
words: “England will have to go dry or go!
under. A nation half drunk cannot compete with
a nation all sober for the control of trade in the
markets of the world."

THERE ARE SUCH OPTIMISTIC ONEs.
The latest returns show Bailey leading Neff
by only 1,623 votes with the gentleman from
Waco steadily gaining. It will be quite an handi-
cap for the ex-Senator if Neff should have more
votes than he has when the votes are all counted
In other words if Neff could beat him with two
other candjdates on practically the same platform
running with him, it would be a pretty optimistic
friend who would claim that Mr. Bailey can win
in the second primary. But there are just such
optimistic friends.

William J. Bryan is a remarkable man. Ac-
l cording to the Philadelphia Record he is not un-
like one of the Old Testament prophets. William
Marion Reedy was a remarkable man. He was
not like one of the Old Testament prophets.
William Jennings Bryan attended the San Fran-
cisco convention as a delegate from Nebraska.
William Marion Reedy attended the San Fran-
cisco convention as a spectator and writer. In
that city he passed on. Speaking of Bryan’s pe-
culiar power the editor of the Mirror, who saw
Bryan in action in San Francisco thus describes
the Nebraskan in the last article the noted editor
penned for his St. Louis Mirror
“Mr. Bryan was in it from the moment he ar-
! rived. People swarmed into his headquarters at
the St. Francis, where his brother, Charles W.,
was the keeper of the gate. I don’t care what
you think of Bryan, there’s no getting away from
his power. There he was at his'hotel, a private
citizen, and he held court daily. Cabinet mem-
bers called formally to pay their respects. So did
Senators and Congressmen, so many you could
not count them, and party bosses of cities and
I states, and delegates upon delegates, male andfe-
male. On the afternoon of Monday, even Senapr
Reed, of Missouri, passed at least three-fourths
of an hour in the presence. When Bryan left his
rooms there was always a crowd trailing him in
reverence and in rapture. And at any hour you
saw him he looked as fresh as the proverbial
____ daisy. He was bland and at ease and wore that
