"Speaking for myself. I cannot bring
myself to believe that in this rear of
all yars I should vote to send any
man to congress or to fill any other
legislative position who cannot be

perintendent of county schools of El

"Because my opponent has persist-

as to my attitude in the governor's
race. I have authorized a statement
to daily press that over three months
ago I pledged my support to governor
Hobby. I am not trying to ride into
office on bis popularity but am stat-

have the facts.

CuJwell in speech at Cleveland square Friday evening. July 1 9.
Tbe letter referred to was the one which C. B. Hudspeth now a candidate for congress from tbe 1 6th
district wrote to William Lawhon. of San Angelo when Hudspeth was in the legislature in 1903 asking Law-
bon to "send a little slush fund" to enable him to "set jai up to tbe one galhts nesters who priadpalry compote

more than one speech lately one
Hudspeth has referred to what he
calls Mr. Cobb's "monumental galL"
He indicates that it is stupendous
egotism in Mr. Cobb to run for the
office he Is seeking. I have been led
to reflect upon the famous couplet.
"Ob wad some power the giftie gle us
To see ourselves as ltbers see us.
It appears to me that the hawk and
the devil may well take a back seat in
the presence of the Incident in which
the honest voter is blandly asked to
condone the writing of tbe notorious
slush fund" letter.
The Good Book (which la authority
with some people) tells us of some
folks who are inconsistent enough to
"Strain at a gnat ana yet swallow a
camel." We have seen the gnat that
gags tbe heroic orator. It Is the nn-
speakablo gall of Mr. Cobb In having
egotism enough to run for the office
that Mr. Hudspeth wants.
Now let us have a look at the camel
he asks the decency-lovinjr voter to
swallow. Mr. Hudspeth calls the fund
he required a "slosh fund." He ought
to know what kind of a fund he want-
ed and he probably knew bow to des-
ignate just that kind of a fund. Now
what is a slush fund? Probably not
more than one man in 1000.000 eer
thought of a slush fund as anything
other than a sum of money to secure
votes with. But it might happen that
the legislator who asked for the fund
happened to be the one in the 1000.000
who did not understand the exact
meaning of the unfortunate term

tificate furnishers) the senator de

of these drink is the greatest. Be-
fore the war. the kaiser told his na-
val cadets on one occasion that the
nation that consumed the least alco-
hol would win the next war. Our
boys in France have begun to make
gcod that prediction; but that our
soldiers and the nation are consuming
leas alcohol than the others is true by
no vote of Hudspeth's.
Hudspeth admits that h has voted

CLAUDE B. HUDSPETH as a state
senator and a member of the Tex-
as house did not Introduce tbe child
labor measures claimed by his cam-
paign committee and in the case of
the last one. be was paired In favor
of a substitute measure that would
hare weakened the statute If It had
been adopted according to a letter
of Miss A. Louise Dietrich addresed
to Volney M. Brown district cam
paign manager for Hudspeth.
The letter follows:
I have received your letter of July
11 and also read same in the Times.
Your letter like practically all the
Huaspetn literature in this campaign
is so far from the truth that I shall
make no attempt to reply to It fur-
ther than to point out to you the
errors into which you have been led
evidently by senator Hudspeth him-
sen.
If you had taken any pains to have
consulted the record you would have
discovered that both yon and senator
nuuspetn nave maae raise statements
about tne child labor law under dis-
cussion. For instance you say in
your letter to me senator Hudspeth
became a member of the house of
representatives in January I 1903. He
himself wrote the first child labor
bill which became a law at that time
your statement to the contrary not-
withstanding. Senator Hudspeth did not write the
child labor law of 1901. As proof of
this assertion and of your and sena-
tor Hudspeth's false statements. I
submit the record: The child labor
law was known as house bill No. 28.
and Its history as shown by the House
Journal of the !8th legislature is as
follows: It was Introduced by rep-
resentative Callen and referred to the
labor committee Journal p. 152. The
committee on labor referred a sub-
smute Dill (committee Dili) p. 141.
The committee substitute bill passed
PP540-541.
Senator Haaspelh lrai not a
member mt the labor committee
nad It Is unbelievable that tbe nt-
ber committee called Mr. Huds-
peth la to write the bill he net
bavins been a member of the
boaee mere than tvrm or three
vreeks at the time.
Tou and senator Hudspeth both
give him credit for the law of 1911
the new chtld labor law known as
senate bill No. 15. In this you are
incorrect. The history of this bill is
as follows: It was introduced Jan-
uary 19. 1911. by senators McNealus.
Cofer and Mayfleld. and referred to
the labor committee p. loo Senate
Journal: made special order February
9. 1911. p.344. Bill taken up for pas-
sage February 17 and amended p.
50C. Senators Hume and Watson of-
fered a substitute p. 508. The authors
of the bill moved to table the sub-
stitute. (Senator Hudspeth did not
vote on the motion to table the sub-
stltute. Dut was paired with senator
Ratliff in favor of the substitute
and therefore a ainst the blll.l See
Journal p. 507. The bill passed finally I

THE congressional candidacy of
1 Zach Lunar Cobb of El Paso is
gaining in favor daily with tbe voters
of the 16th district. This is so be-
cause he Is making a thoroughly
American campaign a "war winning
campaign that bids fair to return him
as the winner on July 27. The El
Paso Herald reports that he addressed
3506 enthusiastic fellow townsmen
this week in public meeting and this
paraphrase ot his concluding words is
a convincing explanation of tbe ap-
peal that Mr. Cobb's candktscy holds
for ardently patriotic and progressive
American cltlsens:
Mr. Cobb said he wants to go
to congress to support Wilson In
csrrying tbe war on to victory
and in providing for returning
soldiers after the war. He said
he is going to vote for Hobby for
governor because Hobby signed
the xone. statewide prohibition snd
woman suffrage bills: snd that

he hopes the clean record of rep-
resentative R. E. Thomason will
result in his becoming speaker
of the house at Austin. Mr.
Cobb's last remarks were in the
nature of an appeal to everyone
to do all they can to win the war.
The point is that natrintlo rnt.r.
in this district in Mr. Cobb's district
and in every other district through-
out the union know they can do one
very big thing toward winning the
war ami that is to elect to congress
only such candidates as demonstrate
an efficient genuine Americanism
backed by good character and a
worthy public record. Mr. Cobb's

gard inspire confidence that he will

Senator Hudspeth admitted he was

As to woman suffrage the speaker
said he had always favored allowing
