The Court of Civil Appeals at
Texarkana consists of a cheif justice
and two associate justices. S. P. Will-
son of Cherokee Coi ty is the chief
justice and Richard £. Levy of Gregg
county and Wm. Hodges of Lamar
county are the associate * justices.
Judge Levy's term expires this year
and he is a candidate in the July
Democratic primary for renomina-
tion to the position he holds. His
candidacy is strongly endorsed by the
lawyers of Cherokee, Gregg, Rusk,
Smith, Harrison, Panola, Bowie,
Wood, Marion, Cass, Red River, Fan-
nin, Hunt, and Lamar counties—
being all but eight of the counties
in ,the district. The endorsement
of the lawyers( of Cherokee county
is as follows:
We, the members of the Chero-
bee County Bar, having personally
known the Honorable Richard B.
Levy for many years, he having ser-
ved as Judge of the Fourth Judicial
District of Texas, several years ago
until he was appointed by the late
Governor T. M. Campbell, as a mem-
ber of the Sixth Court of Civil Ap-
peals at Texarkana, Texas, take this
opportunity of expressing our un-
qualified endorsement of him for re-
election to the position he now holds
and has held for many years.
It is our opinion that the Texar

Crockett, Texas, July 14, 1928
Mr. Oto Terrell,
Austin, Texas
Dear Sir:
I acknowledge receipt of your let-
ter of the loth, instant, soliciting my
support of your candidacy for Land
Commissioner.
I feel quite sure that you have
been advised that 1 am opposed to
Mr. Robinson for Land Commisioner.
While it is true that a few years ago
I had considerable dealings with Mr.
Robinson as a Surveyor, and was very
much of the opinion, at that time,
that Mr. Robinson was not at all
times, representing the interest of
the State, but was inclined to repre-
sent the big interests and his per-
sonal interest, etc., I fought Mr.
Robison in several of his races, but
having kept watch of his rulings and
of the rulings of the higher court,
I have fully decided that I was wrong
in my views and did Mr. Robinson
a very great injustice by censuring
him for doing what he considered
his duty.
To be frank and candid with you,
I wish to state that I consider Mr.
Robinson an honest man, very effi-
cient in his work, and while he has
held the office for many years, which
1 think only fits him the better for
the office, and especially under the

Some of us can remember the day
when a mediocre citizen was sudden-

The greatest attractions of the mod-
ern age are the weddings and fun-
erals, with a full attendance nearly
always assured; yet, but few of us
ever aspire to be the leading man
in the first event, a second time,
and no one wants to be the prin-
cipal at the latter observance. Yes,
we all like misery.

When great men of finance or

their bedside, and yet they will let

under the steering wheel, and death
was almost instantaneous.
