mlttee of the state of Texas tntorpruts
tho qualifications of a Democrat un-
titled to partlclpato at Democratic pri-
maries to depend alone upon a promise to

Whereas wo believe that tbo same Is

Terrell of Kaufman nominated Barney
Glbbs of Dallas for congress Ho be-
lieved Glbbs to bo tho choice of thu Sixth
district Ho had made a raco against
fearful odds against federal patronage
against tho dynasty of a federal court
against tho men of plug hats and per-
fumed gloves against postmnstcrs and
postmasters sons and thero were men
who believed because tho men of tbo
plow and hoc had taken part In politics
tho country was ruined Ho thouaht
with Jefferson that these men wcro the
purest Democrats Ho hoped tho con-
vention would not bo lockod but that
this man who had been followed and
bis steps bgged by tho marshals of tho
United State would receive due con-
sideration
i una it iiKCRtUM
Wynne of Tarrant nominated Beckham
Wynne was tho only man In tho convon
t l who woro a plug nat and ho bellovcd
the gentleman from Kaufman had left Ms
plug at home until ho made his Glbbs
nominating speech Brckham camo not
as tho representative of the plug hat
gentry nor as tho representative ol the
men of tho plow or of tho piano but as
representing tho whole people Fourteen
years ago 11 E Beckham had landed In
Fort Worth poor and friendless Ho had
been called by bis county and his district
to Important ofllces and now tboy called
him to go higher Some said Beckham
was timid bnt It was only when measur-
ing steel with Democrats that ho was
Give blm opposition and bo would have

wbllo ho was in Washington but when he
camo home tho charges that had been
made aalnst him were dlsprovod Well-
born never objected to Hrlct tesis of
Demicraey A railroad never employed
tecondclsss lawyers and that onght to

Democracy was no watered stock It wa

be a stab to the Democracy of the Sixth
