That prohibi tion will play a big part in the coming senatorial and gubenatorial elections here and that Senator Joseph W. Bailey, whose attitude is known to be favorable to the liquor interests and waa rebuked in the state wide prohibition campaign, will have the fight of his life to secure reelection today, is said to be certain. The state legislature has a "dry" majority In both branches and the show ing of prohibition strength throughout the state, which held the antlx to little more than a nominal victory in the special amendment election, places an element n power that Is fully as antag onistic to Bailey as it is opposed to the liquor, traffic The prohibitionists are also determ ined to make an energetic effort to eliminate Governor O. B. Colquitt, who is eligible for another two-year term, from official lire in Texas. Colquitt incurred the wrath of the prohibitionists by stumping the state against the pro hibition amendment. Chairman Ball of the prohibition ex ecutive committee, is spoken of as the most likely candidate against Colquitt An avowed candidate to succeed Bai ley in the senate is Congressman C, B. Randall.

"X will instruct the chief of police to investigate this matter thoroughly." continued the mayor, "and If the facts v ar as set forth a continuation 'of such outrages must stop. Every man is en titled to protection, no mater what hla calling or station in life." The shop owners were very pacific in ; their demands and they carefully re frained from making any statements that would make them seem to appear' prejudiced against union men in gen- t eral. They believe, on the contrary, that the unprovoked assaults that have , characterised the strike of the machin ists have been made by a gang of thugs that are not even in the good graces of the respectable members of the union. -The delegation expressed its confldenoe, on leaving th mayor's office, that the mayor will take action to secure non union workmen from being submitted to further annoyances.
