TEXAS DEMOCRATS ARE IHUAI1DARY To De No Nominations but There Are Indications of ' Trouble Galore. TO BE BIG ATTENDANCE DISSENSION IN THE PARTY OVER THE PROHIBITION ISSUE IS SUCH AS TO INSURE A LIVELY GATHERING. Galveston, Tex., Aug. 8. DelegatM to the democratic state convention, to be held here tomorrow are already arriving In Urge numbers. The attendance promises to be unusually large. Though there are no nominations to be made, the state ticket having been selected at the primaries on July 23, the convention promises to be anything but a prefunctory affair. The dissension in the party over the prohibition question Is such as to insure a lively gathering, with a possibility that it may result in a serious spit in the party ranks. The situation with regard to the prohibition Issue is the most remarkable in the political history of Texas. The trouble grows out of the facj that O. B. Colquitt, candidate of the anti-pro-hlbltlonlsts has been nominated for governor, and that the proposition .to make the submission of a constitutional amendment providing for state wide prohibition to a vote of the people a demand of the platform of the democratic party, and therefore binding upon the legislature, was carried In the recent primaries by a good majority. Tomorrow's convention is expected to be under the control of the prohibition element of the party. With the prohibitionists In control of the convention the nominee for governor and his chief supporters may be expected to take little If any band in writing the platform. In this connection it is expected that Senator Joseph W. Bailey will be selected as the mediator to bring the opposing factions together in the matter of agreeing on certain proposed planks In the platform. Senator Bailey, however, is not viewed in a favorable light by many of the prohibition advocates, particularly by those who supported Cone Johnson, prohibitionist, for governor. He is regarded by them as having been largely, Instrumental In bringing defeat to the cause in the matter of the governorship through his espousal and auport of William Polndexter, another of the gubernatorial aspirants, and by this split of the prohibition vote, made possible the nomination of Colquitt. Unless Senator Bailey or some other peacemaker succeeds in bringing about a peaceful solution of the problem, developments of a startling nature are in the opinion of many well Informed and close observing people, are almost certain to result from the state convention.

At the Gannett

One night some months ago while Miss Maltland, tbe leading woman with the Maxwell-Hall Stock company which opens a week engagement at the Gennett theater tonight was making a trip from Chicago to Boston, there was a wreck and she was compelled to stay all night in a small town. On going over to the hotel the only place of rendesvous she asked the clerk for a room and was told that they were all taken, but upon second thought the hospitable fellow said "We have one room left but it is adjoining a room occupied by an extremely nervous person," but after being assured that she would not arouse her nervous neighbor she was taken to her room. After some little time she began to retire forgetting - the warning of the clerk, and she dropped her shoe. Then remembering where she was, she finished retiring very quietly, and after a while she was startled to hear a shrill feminine voice shout, "Say, when are you going to drop the other shoe." Miss Maitland supported by the Maxwell-Hall Stock company will open a week's engagement at the Gennett tonight In a new comedy drama, "A Jealous Wife." As usual, ladies will be admitted free it accompanied by a paid thirty cent ticket Dally matinees will be given starting tomorrow. St Elmo" Tonight The S. R.

BARNARD TO SUPPORT HIM CRUMPACKER IS DESCRIBED AS BEING AFFILIATED NEITHER WITH THE INSURGENT OR THE REGULAR WINGS. , ;

(Palladium Special) Indianapolis, Aug. 8. Much importance is attached here to the action cf the republican candidates for congress, taken last , Friday la announcing in resolutions that they will not support Cannon, for re-election as speaker of the house at the nex' session of congress, but that they will cast , their votes for Congressman Crumpacker of the Tenth Indiana district. This action was forecasted several weeks ago

in these dispatches when It was published that the congressional candidates had talked the matter over at a former meeting and that they had practically come to the same conclusion. It only needed the resolutions which were adopted last Friday io bear out what was said in these dispatches at that time. - Congressman Crumpacker's long years of service in the house as the representative of the Tenth Indiana district, together with his well established ability in the handling of public affairs has made him the logical man to receive the support of the republican members - of congress for speaker. Judging from the 'looks of things all over the country it is going to be well nigh impossible for Speaker Cannon to have himself elected for another term as speaker, and in that event Congressman Crumpacker will come to the front prominently as the man for the place. Crumpacker's Position. A good deal has been said in regard to Crumpacker's standpattism and it has been said frequently that he is a standpatter of the strongest type. But Crumpacker is not as strong a standpatter as he is reported to be. He is more nearly a typical Indiana republican than anything else. He cannot be said to be a straight out insurgent, either, but he is as much insurgent as he is standpatter, to say the least. In fact Crumpacker was punished at one time by Speaker Cannon for being

too progressive in his views on the tariff question, and the Congressional Record shows this to be true. For a number of years Crumpacker was a member of the house committee on ways and means, the committee which has in its hands the preparation of tariff laws. He had arisen to this exalted place through the fact that he was one of the veteran members of congress and the further fact that he had proven by his work his right to be a member of the most important committee in the house. He was always regular with his party on party matters. He and Speaker Cannon became good friends. But when the time came for the preparation of a new tariff law Crumpacker was suddenly removed from the ways and means committee by Speaker Cannon, and it was the general understanding at the time that the removal was made because Crumpacker sought to reduce some of the tariff schedules below what Cannon thought they should be erduced. In other words. Crumpacker stood for a fair revision of the tariff and Cannon punished him for this by removing him from his high post of membership on the ways and means

committee. Crumpacker was allowed to retain his chairmanship of the census committee of the house, which has had charge of te preparations for te taking of the 1910 census. This is also one of the highly important positions in the house, and Cannon undoubtedly left Crumpacker at the head of that committee only for the reason that Crumpacker was the best qualified man In the house to handle the enormous work. He Favored Reductions. Those who were acquainted with the course of events during the big tariff fight In congress last year say that Crumpacker was at all times in favor of reductions in many of the schedules although he voted for the Payne tariff bill when It was before the house. The Indorsement of Crumpacker, therefore, for the speakership, will undoubtedly be entirely satisfactory to the republicans of Indiana. It means two things First it means the elimination of Cannon from the campaign in Indiana; second. It means, that Crumpacker will stand a very good chance of election as speaker, in case the next house Is republican. Many republicans have been fearing the result of a speaking tour by Cannon In Indiana, since they have beard from Kansas and Nebraska, where he made speeches prior to the primaries. Tbe resolution indorsing Crumpacker was presented to the meeting last Friday by John L. Thompson of Gas City, candidate from the Eleventh district All candidates present voted for it Including Thompson, Cox of the Seventh, Bland of the Second, Posey of the First, Barnard of the Sixth. Keal of the Ninth.

"The many and marvelous mechanical combinations wrought by the inventive trcnius of today in the form of labor Having machinery, compellinj? rapid construction and frequent changes, render these accidents almost Inevitable unless the utmost skill and vigilance are exercised io making and maintaining each part of such machinery. - Courts of justice, instead of. layinp down a just and equitable principle ot law for the determination of tbes cases which would stimulate the men who employ dangerous machinery in operating their business to an exercise of constant - and critical vigilance in avoiding danger and in providing safety for their employees, have formulated a rule which encourages their indiffer
