TO'MAK _________________ We have cut 1 h Si Sf an i GET WH THI SEE* The News From Texas. Jlonham, Texas, Jui> 20, ' Edi'J roil Union Tikks: You may hear people sa$ there is more whiskey drank now than cv.r. This may be true in one sense, bu 1 doubt that, in another sense i. >s wholly untrue. Tb.u sentiment , against whiskey drinking is growiu_' all the time, and there is less drinking in proportion to the number of people than ever before in the history of our country. The liquor business has fallen olf in Texas to such ar. ; extent within the last year or so that j some of the wholesale lipuor dealers' declare that thev will be couinello 1 to leave the State to do business. That speaks volumes for the prohibition sentiment. A strong sentiment against whiskey i9 better than all the statutes you may enact to prohibit its saie and use. | ?And what do you think of socialism? Would you be surprised if Socialism should have an inllucnee in the campaign in 1(.K)4? And by 1908 be an important factor in American politics? In my opinion Populism was a tacre pigmy beside Socialsm, say within six more year* from today. The Democratic party is in such fearful plight from a standpoint of unity that it should not greatly surprise anyone if it should disintegrate and go topicces, when Socialism shall array itself against Republicanism whatever that shall mean. The Socialists of Texas met in convention in the city of Dallas and nominated a full State ticket July 4th.
