BAILEY'S ENEMIES HARD AFTER RIM
Declare They Will Carry Investigation Demand to Washington If Need Be. THE SENATOR CONFIDENT THINKS HE WILL BE RE-ELECT-ED JANUARY, 23 ON THE DAY SET BY LAWSPEECHES MADE IN HIS DEFENSE. Publishers' Press.J Dallas, Tex., Jan. 14. Confident of having a majority for their view of the investigation issue, Senator Bailey's friends today forced the fighting on the opposition in both branches of the state legislature. After the first test vote in the senate, which the Bailey men carried by a vote of 17 to 12, they started to ride rough shod over the anti-Bailey forces to adopt a sub stitute to the drastic resolution of investigation proposed by the senator's enemies. Appeals however, were made for discussion and the Bailey men con sented to that request. It was made plain however, that any investigation resolution that the state senate will adopt must contain a provision calling for a specific charge against Senator Bailey. No one expects a final vote on these resolutions earlier than Wednesday and possibly not before Thursday. , . Senator Bailey expresses confidence in a re-election by a joint-session of both houses on January 23, the day set by law. His enemies on the other hand openly and boldly assert that they will try to prevent this and that if Senator Bailey shalll be re-elected at that time, thy will carry an investigation demand to Washington. Bai ley's forces were strong enough today to carry a resolution through the, senate providing for a joint committee of the houses to make arrangements for the senatorial election to take place on January 23. The day in the house was devoted to speeches In defense of Senator Bailey. CUNNING OF THE FOX. Its Skill When nnanlna- "For Llf From the Hounds. No other still hunter can travel so quietly as a fox, and mighty few men are as crafty as tle four legged hunter when it comes to a matter of getting meat.' Foxes have been seen in England slipping from bush to bush, crawling and creeping after a feeding hare, ?or all the world like a man stalking a deer. The fox cannot catch a rabbit in a fair chase, but its food Is mostly rabbits In spite of their fleetness. But at no time does it display its skill so well as v-hen running for life with a pack of hounds on its trail. Olaus Moguus, archbishop of Upsala, wrote a book called "Historia de Gentibus Septentrionalibus." of which an English translation exists. This book tells of a fox that leaped from back to back of a herd of goats. As the dogs could not follow, the fox escaped. A curious trick of English foxes is to Jump as high as possible, grasping a tree branch with their teeth, hold op till the bounds have gone on and then, dropping to the ground, escape. This ia similar to the trick of the America? fox which jumps into a tree and rests on a branch, but American dogs re not such fools as English dogs. Tley gather around the tree and howl till the hunter comes. 'ivc crudest People. Bedouin warriors are noted for the spirit of their steeds. They are the crudest people known to civilization. Witch Superstitious. In some of the country districts of England the peasants are said to believe that elves and witches steal babies from their cradles and place their own elfin' otfspring in the place of the robust child. After a child is baptized the witches and fairies have no power over It; hence the peasants have their little ones baptized as soon as possible. G)rl In SXen's Clothes. In French Switzerland the sheperd girls wear men's clothes. The Largest Islands. The largest islands in the world are New Guinea. Borneo and Madagascar, in the order named. New Guinea is nearly four times the size of Great Britain. PD30

Des Moines, Iowa, Jan. 14. The thirty second general assembly of Iowa convened today and Representative N. E. .Kendall was elected speaker of the house while Senator J. A. Smith, of Osage, was made president of the senate. Following the organization a joint session was held to listen to the reading of Governor Cummins' message. The message was in large part a recitation of the views expressed in former messages. The governor demands two cnt fares, lower freight rates, reciprocal demurrage, amending the anti-pass law to conform with the national statute, and limiting the hours of labor by railway employes. The governor further asks for an annual franchise corporation tax, the limiting of capital stock to the amount actually paid in, and to have the approval of articles of incorporation left with the executive counsel instead of the secretary of state. A direct inheritance tax and the election of senators by popular vote are also recommended. Governor Cummins will be formally inaugurated next Tuesday. The date for the election of U. S. senator has not been fixed. The session will, it is predicted, last three months. Primary election legislation promises to be the most prominent topic of the session.

DISCUSSED CASE OF I1EGR0 SOLDIERS
Dismissal of Colored Troops by President Has the Attention of Senate. CAUSES MUCH ORATORY THREE SPEECHES MADE DURING THE DAY IN DEFENSE OF THE ACTION OF THE. ADMINISTRATION. IPublishers" Press.! Washington, Jan. 14. Consideration of the now noted Brownsville case occupied almost the entire time of the senate today. Opening with the reading of the president's message trans mitting additional evidence secured in Texas by Assistant Attorney-General Purdy, three speeches were made in defense of the administration's action in dismissing negro troops from the army. Two . of them were delivered by democrats Mr. Mallory, (Fla.) and Mr. Clay, (Ga.) Mr.Spooner, (Wis.) took the floor shortly before adjournment and will resume his treatment of the subject shortly after the opening tomorrow. The president's announcement that he considered the additional testimony as conclusive and his withdrawal of that part' of his former order denying to the discharged men the right of ever again holding office under the government, was met by the declaration from Mr. Forak'er, that his opposition to the administration's methods was not removed and that he would press consideration of his resolution calling for an investigation. Mr. Bacon got a sharp rise out of Mr. Tillman by having read an extract from a South Carolina paper which showed that during the dispensary riot in that state, Mr. Tillman, then governor, had exercised the same power which he had denied to the president, in dismissing a militia company as unworthy. The South Carolinian explained that the militia had been called out to sup press an insurrection and that in the face of duty they had mutinied and had tried to v resign. He declared that there was no analogy between that case and the present one.

Humor and Philosophy By DUNCAN M. SMITH
ALL ABOARD FOR THE BUG HOUSEIt may not be quite clear to you. But science makes it plain That very shortly most of us Are billed to go insane. For with the pressure raised so high We cannot stand the strain. No doubt in an event like that We'll cease our frenzied chase For dollars and such paltry things. For oflice. power and place. And start in to enjoy ourselves. Though at a milder pace. The few who have not gone insane With pity we wiil view j As they arise at early morn And work the whole day througn And only have to show for It At night a plunk or two. Of course we will serenely smile And think they are not bright And that we ought to lock them up Lest some one they might bite. But no; we'll shake our heads and say That they are harmless Quite. We'll see the man who rocks the boat. We'll see the baseball fan. We'll see the wild election crank. Who hollers for his man. And thank our lucky stars we're not Constructed on that rlan. We will not kick about the drought Nor fret about the rain. We will not worry and grow thin Lest we should miss a train. We ought to lead a happy life When we are all insane. But Most Need It. "Do have a little charity!" "Why, nobody wants It." Busy Lawmakers. In many parts of the land the state legislatures are very busy grinding out laws that no one will take the trouble to obey and that the next legislature will repeal to make room on the books for laws of the same kind of its own make. The average legislature takes Itself quite seriously, or shall we say that it overdoes the thing in a conscious effort to earn its salary? It goes on making laws that no one can understand and over" which the supreme court must scratch Its head several times before It can guess at their meaning. Then It expects people to obey them. The average man doesn't mind obeying reasonable laws If they do not lnterefere with his business, but with the old ones that are on hand and the new ones that are now being born at the rate of half a dozen a minute be simply hasn't the time. r Surely in this busy age no one but a member of the legislature would expect a man to sit up all night just for the purpose of obeying new laws, but how else could be do it? Brute. "You always meet trouble naif way!" she exclaimed petulantly. j "Not always, my dear, not always," returned her husband. "Remember that you overtook me. " Pluming Himself.

Santa Claus was as full of presents) this season as Roosevelt is full of messages. An association of underwriters to Insure against loss by alimony ought to do a rushing business. A policeman who attends strictly to his own business interferes .with a great many people. There is some compensation for it in being able to tell about your hard luck.

"I hanker after just one more battle." said the big fellow recently, "but ' the man I fight will have to be a good one. I don't like the looks of the present heavyweights. They are not big enough.. I don't need the money. All I want to do Is to battle for the glory of America..

Cal Ewing of the San Francisco Baseball club and Edward W. Walter, president of the Oakland club, with the ostensible purpose of making plans for the 1907 season. The really Important business, however, is reported to be the proposition of securing an equalization of players, so that the good men may be so divided around the league that different clubs may get an equal apportionment of the players. Will Nat Quit Nolan. There is no Immediate danger of Battling Nelson splitting out with his manager, Billy Nolan, says a Chicago authority. The "durable Dane" said recently that he will stick to Nolan just as long as his manager continues to show him that he is "on the square." "I have seen all these stories about Tex Rlckard and what his plans are to bar me unless I quit Nolan," Bat said. "You can be sure that as long as Billy shows me that be is attending to my business In a satisfactory manner to me I will continue to allow him to handle me." Broke Botb tears at Polo.
