considerable political Interest
Hon Ilatton W Sumuers President loung
Mens Democratic Club of Dallas County
Texas
Tyler Texas November 19 Dear Sir
I havo just received tho resolution of the
Young Mens Democratic club of Dallas
county Inviting Mr Bailey and myself
to address tho club on some day In the
near future I leave for Washington in a
few days In tho meantime my engage-
ments aro constant and I would have no
speech worthy of an
tlmo to prepare a
occasion such as an address beforo your
club
So far as a Joint debate is concerned I
havo repeatedly stated in reply to rumors
brought to my notico to tho effect that
Mr Bailey intended to challenge mo to
a series of Joint debates next spring that
personally I doubted If Huch dabates be-
tween men of the sarao political party
aver accomplished much else than to pro
duco III feeling and hence I should neither
seek nor encourage them That on tho
other hand if Mr Bailey should send me-
a direct challenge to a series of such do
bates in tho campaign of next year I
would assume that ho knew some Issue bo
tweeh us calculated to lift a Joint canvass
to a level to high office and contest and
accept his challenge
Tender my thanks to the oung Men s
Democratic club I hopo to be able to
spend a few hours In Dallas beforo getting
oft and will try to see some of them in
person Bespcctfuly yours
H ChUton
Tho probability of a Joint debato ba
Wfipn tlo two distinguished democrat
has arouasd tho entlro State Last Sat
urday Mr Bailey authorized Dallas friends
to say that ho was perfectly willing and
eager to meet Senator Chilton In open
discussion but nothing deflnito could ba
raid of the matter until tho rrrlval of
the frcgoing letter which came today
Mr Balloy has not made any kind of a
speech In this city In over three ynirs
His admirers arc anxious to hear him
and havo promised to All tho auditorium

bo contended for a moment that a pupil
could not bo oxcluded for unclcanllnoss
indecency of person and many other things
which could bo mentioned
J31 nally and directly in point I
think the case of Duffleld vs Williams
port School District 162 Pa 176 25 L Itt
ia cery decisive of the question
In this case it is hold 1 A scliool board
nas tho power to adopt reasonable health
regulations for the bentlU of the pupil
and tho general public and 2 A school
board has tho right to exclude from th
schools those who do not comply with a
rcgulntlon of the city authorities and the
school board requiring a ccrltncato of
vaccination as a condition ot attendance
A careful reading of the case ls suggested
If thoro should bo further doubt as to such
regulations beinc rcasonaWK referenda
is madoto the many cases sustaining com-
pulsory vaccination among which 13
