SENATOR VEILES POSIHON.
Will Endeavor to Carzy out the wishes
or His Constituents.
The following letter is selt-expiana-
Xharollo, Texas, Dec. 31.—Hon. D. M
Decker, Quanah, Texas.—Sir: I ao*
knowledge receipt of your letter of
Doc. 26, In which you inform me of
your antagonism to the re-election or
Senator Bailey, and request me, after I
have been sworn in aa a state senator
from this district, to at once resign,
announce for re-election on the anii-
Railey ticket, and tendering me your
support In the ensuing campaign- Per-
mit me to add in this connection thai
I am not unmindful of the suggesilon
made to me in your letter addressed
to me under date of Dec. 10. last,, in
which you admonish me that if I fa J to
vote against the return of Senator Bai-
ley I will "make the mistake of my
life.” These letters were written to
me in reply to a circular letter address-
ed by me on Doc. 8 to the Demo-
cratic voters of the Twenty-ninth sen-
atorial district and extensively publish-
ed in the press, seeking to escertain.
as best I could, the wishes of my con-
stituents in this matter.
In that letter I did not Indicate what
my personal views were on the subject,
and shall not do so in thia.
In reply to the letter referred to, I
have receive something over 200 let-
ters, together with a number of peti-
tions signed by about 1,000 people ex-
pressing their opinions pro and con and
am still receiving such letters .and peti-
tions daily.
As intimated in that letter my con-
ception of my duty is to ascertain, if
I can, the wishes of my constituents
in the matter, at this time and vote ac-
cordingly.
In making this statement, I appre-
ciate I believe the full significance to
be given the action of the Democracy
of this district in the primaries in
July as well as that of the Democratic
state convention at Dallas following.
I take it for granted also, that Senator
Bailey will not permit the legislature
to vote for his return to the exalted
station of United States senator until
after a full, fair and searching inves-
tigation of the matters of which he
stands charged, and to adopt the lan-
guage of a gentleman high in the coun-
cils of the party of this district, “Sen-
ator Bailey should not be sacrificed to
envy, jealousy, malice or hatred," but
the verdict and judgment of the 16818-
lature should be, and I believe will* be
based upon all the facts and circum-
stances taken together, bearing in mind
the expressed wish of the people al-
ready referred to; such has been, and
is now pay attitude in the premises.
Referring briefly to that part of your
former letter warning me of the dire
political calamity which may fall to my
lot. in case I should fail to vote against
Senator Bailey's re-election. I have
to say: "I have been voting the Dem-
ocratic ticket in the rank and file near-
ly a quarter of a century, and not until
now have I ever been honored with
an office. I have been content to
watch with pride the advancement of
Texas under Democratic rule for all
these years, but it has occurred to me,
from time to time, that office holders
are prone frequently to pursue a course
after their induction into official lire,
tending to their political advancement,
rather than to the welfare of those Whg
have entrusted them with officlai place.
I do not know that I shall ever aga1n
offer for public position, but if I shou".
and am to be crucified for pusruing a
course I believe to be right, and in the
interest of those I am now about to

nothing short of a revocation by the
people themselves can undo that which
should have no force whatever, because
it was procured by fraud.
Under the conditions it seems to me
that it would be timely for the-execu-
tive committee to discuss the question
as to what should be the policy of the
party. It cannot bind members of the
legislature, of course. I cannot revoke
the decree of the convention nor is -
probable that It could recommend a
method of procedure that would be Ae.

it could advise—it could recommend
some feasible plan for extricating the
party from its present dilemma. The

Dear Sir: I have been thinking of
writing to you for some time to let you
know what Peruna did for me. ’
I am 57 years old. I lost my heait
about six or seven years ago. I first
gad dyspepsia and employed different
Zoctors. . . . ,,
Last year injured one of my kid-
teya I had one of the best -doctors foe
that He put me to bed, not to move
for two weeks.
I slowl recovered, but was so weak
and prostrated that I could walk but a
short distance. In fact I had to keep
1Stook several remedies, but obtained
no relief- I also had catarrh in some
form , , ,
My wife advised me to take Peruna.
and it is with pleasure that I can sav
• that by taking one and one-half bottle
ef your Peruna. It cured me and I feel
all right. I send this with many thanks
to you, as I enjoy life again.
My wife has also been taking your
Peruna for asthma and it helps to re-
lieve her. We keep your Peruna in the
touM constantly. Again I say I thank
you"for Peruna.
Sincerely yours.
PHILIP KRATZ.

I feel unwilling to close this letter
without giving some recognition to
that part of your letter requesting my
immediate resignation and re-entry In

I appreciate. I assure you, the kindly
motives prompting this suggestion but
in the Inception t its consideration I
am impressed with the thoughttsthat
possibly there raay be matters coming
before the Thirtieth legislature to
which my constituents may de si re me

that of electing a nited States snator;
I must therefore deciinezto entertoi
the request, not. howev‘eTietret

In conclusion I take this method ol
thanking the hundreds of people he

The Frisco-Cotton Belt depot, located
on East Central avenue in North Fort
Worth, was entered by a negro yestet:
day afternoon about 3 o’clock, who shot
the cashier, A. J. Scrivener in the arm
and got away with about 31,500 in
cash. , I
Cashier Serfvener was alone in the
Office at the time, all the other em-
ployes who make up the office force,
being out. . .
The cashier was sitting at a long
table.counting the money, when a ne-
gro came in from the waiting room,
and when the young man looked up, he
•aw the negro, and reallzing something
was wrong, he grabbed for the money,
which was mostly in bills. Th® negro
grabbed for the money at the same
time, and then pulling out a revolver
and shooting the cashier in the arm,
took the money and made his escape.
As soon as Mr. Serivener recovered
from the shock he gave the alarm and
sought medical assistance.
No one saw the negro getting away,
but Mr. Scrivener has furnished the
police of North Fort Worth with a de-
sqription of the man who robbed-him.
- Mr. Scrivener was preparing to bal-
ance his cash when the incident oc-
curred The books had been balanced
yesterday morning by an auditor for
the company, and Mr Scrivener Was
preparing to balance his cash when
the negro entered the office.
The wounded man was not seriously
hurt, the ball going through the feshy
part of his arm. He is a young man.
about 25 years old, and has been in the
employ of the company for several
years. .,1 ,
Mr Scrivener’s revolver; which he
keeps in the office, was in the safe at
the time the negro entered, and as the
negro was between him and the sate,
he was unable to get to it.
City Marshal Montgomery and his
force of policemen went right to work
on the case and scoured the entire
town looking for the man who commit-
ted the robbery, but were unable to lo-
cate a clew as to where the fugitive
had gone. ,
Every effort is being made by the
police to unearth a clew that will lead
to the location of the aegro.
Mr. Serivener stated that he thought
he was standing when the negro fired
the shot. t
