In this enlightened age it is hard
to conceive how it is possible for any
voter, who is posted as to events of
the past, to seek by his vote to again
plunge our State into that turmoil
— and strife that would follow the re-
turn of J. E. Ferguson to the office
of Governor .with his rule or ruin
policy.
Mr. Ferguson’s candidacy is in di-
rect violation of the Constitution of
the State.
It is supported by a campaign of
hate, demagogy, deception and maud-
lin sentimentality.

filed in said court on the 7th day of
June, 1913, and numbered on the
docket of said court 33,554, against
the said Frank Mancuso, defendant,
and alleging, in substance, as follows:
That Joseph Lobit departed this
life October 10th, 1914, in the City
and County of Galveston, Texas, tes-
tate, and will of said testator was on
November 16th, 1914, probated in

tees and beneficiaries, and are enti-
tled to all property belonging to said
deceased and to his estate; that there
are now no executors, administrators
or other representative or represen-
tatives of said Joseph Lobit, deceased,
or of his estate; that on or about

fendant, made, executed and deliv-
ered to said Joseph Lobit, now de-
ceased, defendant’s five certain prom-
issory notes, dated June 4th, 1913,

and whereby said defendant promised
and agreed and became bound to pay
said Joseph Lobit, or order, in Gal-
veston County, Texas, one, two, three,

spectively, the sum of said notes, to-
gether with interest thereon from

turity until paid at rate of 8 per cent
per anmum and further provided that
if said notes or any of them should
be placed in the hands of an attor-
ney for collection or if collected by
suit; that defendant was bound there-
by to pay 10% additional on amount
of principal and interest then owing
upon such notes, and each of them,
as attorney’s fees; and defendant fur-
ther agreed to pay all costs whatever
incurred in the collection of said
notes or either of them; that said
notes and eah of them contained a
provision that in the event of failure
to pay either of such notes or any in-
stallment or interest thereon when
due, the holder of any of said notes
might, at his option, declare each and
all of said notes matured; and these

He posed as a great banker, yet
deliberately violated the banking
laws of this State.
After a fair and impartial trial, he
was impeached by the ov vhelming
vote of the State Senate, a body com-
posed of many of his former close
personal end political friends, and
men whose integrity is beyond qu s-
tion.
If his impeachment was illegal, why
did he not appeal?
His management of the bank at
Temple, and the affairs of the State
demonstrated beyond all question his
lack of sound business ability.
Because the Supreme Court of this
State decided against him in the fam-
ous “Chicken Salad Case,” ignoring
his letter to the court dated March
22, 1917, Mr. Ferguson, as Governor,
vetoed the bill increasing the salary
of the judges.
Because of the adverse decision of
the Court of Civil Appeals at Beau-
mont in the case of Maddox vs. Day-
tor. Lumber Company, in which Mr.
Ferguson was personally interested,
