Alleging that if “tactics now
ing employed by Thomas B.
and his associates shall gain head-
way in this State, prohibition will
not only be doomed to extinction as
a national policy, but will meet de-
feat at the polls in Texas within
eight years,” E. G. Senter, candidate
for Governor, Saturday denounced
injection of prohibition as a party is-
sue in Texas, and gave his views up-
on other potential campaign ques-
tions. The formal statement was
given out by Mr. Senter at his home
in Arlington.
In it he asserted that he first
voted for prohibition in 1887, and
voting for it ever since,
and that he believed prohibition —
it now is in the United States is
success and will continue to be if let
alone by politicians and kept out of
politics as a party issue. Mr. Senter
prefaces his statement with a decla-
ration that he favors allowing Mr.
Love’s name to go’ on the Demo-
cratic ballot. But he declares that
there can be no good result from a
further agitation of the Hoover-
Smith question, which, he says, “rep-
resents water gone over the mill.”
Mr. Senter then reviews the his-
tory of prohibition in Texas politics
and asserts that at one time Mr.
Love was an anti-prohibitionist,
agreeing in that role with such for-
mer leaders as Governors Frank
Lubbock, Jim Hogg, Richard Coke,
and O. M. Roberts. “I did not at
that time agree with these eminent
Democrats,” he says, “but I certain-
ly had no thought to impeach their
morality or devotion to the welfare
of their country.”
Another allegation of the state-
ment is that Mr. Love has raised the
question of “whether certain gentle-
men who have appointed themselves
guardians of the welfare of the peo-
ple and who do not represent exceed-
ing 100 in number, shall be permit-
ted to rule this State. They claim to
represent many pastors and several
churches. These claims are spuri-
ous.” This is followed by the decla-
ration that “I remember when Mr.
Love was the chief administrator of
the affairs of the Ku Klux Klan.”
Here Mr. Senter adds, “I did not at
that time challenge his right to fol-
low his conscience. If he thought his
conscience required him to install
the Ku Klux Klan in control of this
State, that was his business . . . but I
did not agree with him then and I do
not agree with him now.”
In concluding paragraphs Mr. Sen-
ter asserts that the prohibition ques-
tion is being used to cloak the pur-
poses of special interests, and says
the campaign should be devoted to
the consideration of economic ques-
tions. He appeals “to the people of
this State who want good govern-
ment, who want reduction of ex-
penses and of unbearable taxes, who
want court reform, who are opposed
to the limited bond issues, who are
opposed to turning over all of the
natural resources of the State to
public utilities” to join in a common
fight for good government in Texas.
Stewart Hamilton of the dining
car department tells of an argument
he heard one night after business in
his diner had ceased and the cooks
and waiters were preparing for the
night.
“G’way, fellah; what’s you know
about de Bible anyway?”
“Huh, man, Ah knows
they is to know about it.”
“Yeh? Ah bets five you don’t
even know th’ Lawd’s prayer.”
“Put up.”
“There ’tis. Go ahead.”
“Awright, now—but wait a min-
ute, big boy; which Lawd’s prayer is
you talkin’ ’bout?”
child is most inclined to do a thing
after being told not to do it, and
farmers are familiar with those cows
that can best be kept out, of a field
by turning them in and letting them
jump out. There are animals that
can best be driven in one direction
by pretending you want them to go
in the other—and some of them are
flappers. We are all funny animals
in one way or another.—Pathfinder.
An article in the Scientific Month-
ly announces to the world a new
memory aid which the author, at
least, has found effective. Having
failed by several other memory
methods to retain the name of a
certain place which he often passed
through he finally took a good look
at it and then tried to forget it.
Trying to forget it fastened it in-
delibly in his memory, and the same
trick was used successfully on sub-
sequent occasions.
This scheme may be new to
science but it is old to practical peo-
ple. Every mother knows that a
an-
this
county I would again make the race
. for County Tax Collector, subject to
to the action of the Democratic
primaries, and at this time I feel that active campaign in an effort to see
it would not be amiss to give a few
facts . bearing on my experience,
qualifications and fitness foi' the of-
fice.
For the benefit of any who do not
know me I will state that I was
reared in the Ida community eight
miles southeast of Sherman, and
have lived in Grayson County since
boyhood except for a few years
spent on the Pacific Coast and four-
teen months in military service dur-
ing 1917 and 1918. My first busi-
ness training began at the age of
seventeen as a clerk in a railroad of-
fice from which beginning I was
promoted to chief clerk. However, I
was forced to resign this position
due to a breakdown in health, when
I returned to my former home in
Grayson County. After regaining
my health I was employed in the
freight office of the Southern Pacif-
ic Lines in Denison, resigning this
place to accept the position of gen-
eral bookkeeper for the National
Bank of Denison, which place I re-
signed to enlist in the service of my
country during the late World War.
I am married and my family con-
sists of my wife and two children.
Soon after the close of the war I
received the appointment of Deputy
Tax Assessor of this county, which
place I filled until January, 1926,
when I resigned to make the race
for County Tax Collector. I was de-
feated in this race by Mr. D. K. Rob-
erts by only 192 votes. I felt at the
time that this was close enough to
justify my making the race again
and I announced at that time I
would be a candidate for this office
in the 1930 primaries. Since my de-
feat and until entering this race I
have been auditor for Foster & Co.
of Denison.
I feel that the twenty years or
more of experience I have had in of-
fice management and accounting, to-
gether with the five years I spent as
a deputy in the Tax Assessor’s of-
fice, qualify me to fill the important
office of Tax Collector. I use the
word “important” advisedly, because
the Tax Collector handles hundreds
of thousands of dollars of the peo-
ples’ money every year; he is under
a four hundred thousand dollar
bond; much of the work is highly
specialized, the money being divided
into over a hundred accounts, and it
requires the service of men of long
experience.
With reference to the matter of
establishing branch offices for the
payment of automobile license, I
wish to refer to House Bill No. 6,
Chapter 88, Section 10-A of the Acts
of the Second Called Session of the
41st Legislature, which makes pro-
vision for this service to the tax
payers. The purpose of this bill was
to relieve the congestion at the high-
