gressives ernor Expected To Got Very

One of the hottest political battles
in the history of Texas will reach
its climax during the coming week.
On July 27 the democratic voters of
the state will engage in a state-wide
primary to select a successor to Jo-
seph Weldon Bailey in the United
States senate and to nominate for
governor and minor state offices.
The fight for Bailey’s seatin the
senate began last winter immediate-
ly after Bailey announced he intend-
ed to retire. Since then the fight
has been so hot that two of the
leading candidates collapsed and
were forced to withdraw.
Congressman Morris Sheppard,
however, has “come back" and will
finish the race.
Sheppard was the first to start,
backed by the Bryan wing of the
party. Within a month he was
forced to retire because of broken
health and Cone Johnson took up
the fight for the radicals. "
Johnson, however, found that the
pace set by the Bailey faction who
sought to name their own successor
to the senator was too hot He was
forced to retire to a sanitarium
in Fort Worth to recuperate. Shep-
pard had been in a sanitarium since
his collapse, but when Johnson
broke down, announced that he
was ready to resume the fight

tion and about 40 acres more tillable land, balance good
grass, good well in yard and water in pasture most of the i
time, three room residence with porch small cook room N

hood, surrounded by substantial farmers who own 'homes,
good schools and churches on two sides of it, By paying *
$1,500 or more as a first payment, the remainder of the
purchase price can be arranged from 1 to 10 years to suit
the (purchaser with interest payable annually at 6 per
cent.

mill in yard from which the residence and stock lots are
supplied with an abundance of pure water. This is one of
the most desirable stock farms in tills country and can be
sold as a whole or I will subdivide and sell a portion of it.
By making a cash payment of $7,500 or more and I might
consider a choice small farm in Hamilton County as a part
of the first payment. I will make the deferred payments

cratic floor leader.
That is reported to be the slate
which the progressive element rip
the Democratic majority of the
house has framed for the congress
in the event of the election of
Wilson to the presidency, on the
theory that the Democratic house of
representatives could be rendered
more responsive to the will of the
new president if the leadership were
taken out of the hands of Champ
Clark and Oscar Underwood.
The movement is only in its in-
fancy as yet. but the feelers are be-
ing put out and "the boys" are being
sounded. Palmer is credited with
having achieved the victory for
Wilson in the Keystone state, and
Henry was very active in the pre-
convention campaign andsit the
Baltimore convention in behalf of
the Jerseyman. In the event of a
reorganization of the house these
two men are certain to figure large-
ly in the contests for the leading po-
sitions mentioned.
Tne Underwood and Clark men
have knowledge of the plans being
formulated and they are at work
preparing to circumvent Henry and
Palmer if possible. Neither Clark
