. GALVESTON Texas August 10. At a
final cauous oilh anti-Bailey forces
this .afternoon It was decided to begin
actual work In the organisation for' tha
oampagn that will be waged against the
senator twoyears from now when he will
be a candidate for re-election. Probably
tha bitterest speech that haa been dellv-
'. ared against Mr. Bailey in this State was
one largely Invective by Congress man
R.-L. Henry of Wacoiwho -placeM his
services at tha heads of tha committee
- for any kind of wsrk In any section of
the" State; declaring that he was willing
to sacrifice his own political- fortune In.
. tha contest If need be. .There appears to
be an easy connection with this offer
and the recent rumors concerning bis own
ambitions aa candidate for the senate.
Tha applause that greeted his speech
vwa vociferous at times and could be
! easily heard on the - streets -below ' the
Carpenters' union ball where tha meeting
wss hsld . . ' .
Among .tha oommittes ihat was ap-
pointed to map out a Una. of action were
' George W. Riddle ot DallasrT. & Hender-

. of campaign as early as ' possible. .
' . Thsrs was quits a debate aa to whether
the proceedings of tha meeting should be
executive- Mr. Hamnsr of Colorado City
leading tha convention for an open meet-
' Ing all along the line. He said that with
the big ovation fhat bad been given 8ns-
tor Bailey at tha convention' and the
.papers full of that; while bis. opponents
ware closeted ln.'an executive session In a
downtown-hall would tend to create the
Impression that they were cowardly curs

' Tha nomination of Mr. Colquitt was

both speeches Mr. Colquitt wss attrib-
uted the distinction of being "first eltl-

Hardy who was speaking from the too

his fist at Moore and hurled an epithet
of four letters across the hall. " Moore

He was subjected to many interrupt ions

times that: the 'speaker Was completely
downed out and faltered. Crier of "boo"
