Galveston, Texas
It is Dot possible to escape the
significance of the remarkable re-
ception former Senator Bailey has
met with on his brief speaking tour
in Texas in behalf of Decomocratic
principles. If the audiences he has
•iddressed are to be considered rep-
resentative— ard he has spoken in
large and small citi s and in the
country-the belief he expressed
Friday night at Waco that a luge
majority 0f Tex*he are still dev ted
to constitutional liberty is wel
founded. His attacks upon over-
regulation, governmental extra*
vagance, opportunism and interna-
tionalism have everywhere been
favorably received. His arraign-
ments of party leaders for their
departure fjom historic tenets have
been loudly cheered, His tour has
been one continuous and unbroken
triumph.
Men who have not been Baileyh
friends in the past have shown
their willingness to join him in the
campaign he is now making. Men
who were saying a short time ago
he boldly threw down the
gauntlet to those he calls “isrnatrcs”
that he was making a hojpelesi-
effort are now declaring he coulc
‘‘sweep the State*’ as a candidate
for high office.
That remark is teiDg made not
only by those who share Bailey’s
views tut by many who do not
agree with him. Neutral observers
at Waco agreed that, unless there
is agre.it change in public senti-
ment between now and next sum-
mer Bailey Would make an unbeat
able candidate for Governor.
We have referred before to the
voiceless and unrepresented voters
of Texas. How often these have
formed a majority of voters it would
be hard to say, but interesting pos
sibilities are suggested by the fate
of a number of amendments sub-
mitted to the people by the last
Legislature.
Both our United States Senators,
jur Governors and almost all oui
legislators \ ere active champions of
equal suffrage All our city nev, s
p pers with two exceptions champ-
ioned it and a majority of countrj
piipeis followed suit. Yet suffrage
I st in Tex .s by a large majority
Then, as if to dem nitrate the
voicelessoess and helples-nesa of
che people, the Legislature, bv an
overwhelming vote, ratified a Fed
eral amendment for suffrage,
Senator Bai’ey has presented a
platform of principles a 'dressed to
all the people and the result of his
short campaign in the busy holiday
season, when most of us aie think-
ing of other matters than politicF,
has been an outburst of enthusiasm
not to be misunderstood or explain-
ed away.—Austin Sta esman.

perfection’s Price
In Tire BuiMiri
JR Ure-maker’s first problem is to decide how much He can
give for the money. This, and every other question in tire
building, depends .upon policies. T
rA super-tire, such as The Brunswick", can be made only by a!
Concern which knows well and appreciates that there is noth*?
ing exclusive in the tire industry except high standards. -
Since 1845 the House of Brunswick has held first place in
{every line it entered. Brunswick Tires, as more and more
motorists come to know them, will certainly be awarded that:
jcoveted place held only by the superfine.
Motorists who buy one Brunswick usually adopt it: fofjj
complete equipment. Yet this is not strange, since die firsti
one so completely proves its Superiority.
If the name of Brunswick certifies to you, as to most men,
an extraordinary tire, at no higher price, would it not bg good
business to test one or two Brunswick Tires?
