ALVIN OWSLEY’S SPEECH HERE
Hon Alvin Owsley, one of the can-
didates for the U. S. Senate, spoke
in Tyler Friday night. He spoke
immediately after the weekly band
concert and was fortunate in having
a very large audience. We do not
know hoW to report Hjjs speech—except
to say that we believe the audience had
a right to expect more of him than he
gave.

Some of us regard the right of
franchise, the privilege of the ballot
box, all too lightly—but if some in-
vading political power from a foreign
my-1 land should deprive-us of that right
Connally and Tom Blanton as petty, as the result of encouragement from
thieves and their acts as petty theft
and when I go to Washington as your
Senator the first law that I will pass
will be a law to make their acts a
felony.” That’s what Mr. Owsley said
in his accusation that the gentlemen
named had had campaign documents
printed at government expense and
had used the congressional frankipjg
previlege to secure the free distribu-
tion of these documents. That’s old
stuff, pure buncomb*—we have heard
it all our life by those on the outside
who want to get in. We do not be

How many times have you tried
to help a person who was down ?
Right now there may be some friend
who needs your help.
A little help from you may be just
what he needs to encourage him to
carry on.—Houston Chronicle :
I love a man who can smile in trou-
ble, that can gather strength from dis-

‘Tis the business of little minds to
vote by j shrink, hut he whose heart is firm,
self to support the nominees of this
primary.” Some men who are zeal-
ous and overzealous for the success
of the national democratic ticket are-
representing to citizens that if one
does not propose to support the Hous-
ton nominees he has no right to parti-
cipate in Saturday’s primary. Don’t
be misled; go ahead and take the
pledge Saturday to support the nomi-
nees of that day’s primary election—
and then vote. Lots of the most con-
scientious citizens of this state and of
this Nation have not yet “found them-
selves” with respect to the national
ticket—the ticket which Tammany
forced upon the real democracy of the
Nation thru astute and well planned
organizations of the minority.

obligations more highly. :

Our Editor has been asked where he
“stands” with respect to the National
democratic ticket. This is the first
time in his life that the Editor has
ever had to gulp, and wince, and frown
and heave, and gag in any situation
involving a national election. He
thought once he just hold his nose and
“take it straight,” but that looks im-
possible now. If Governor Smith can’t
sugar-coat the dose by his acceptance
speech on August 22, this Editor will
find it absolutely impossible to swol-
low the nauseating dose that Tamma-

when he reflects that the imperial
State of Texas preferred for her Sena-
tor a “petty thief” in preference to
himself.
Col. Owsley sought to capitalize
his fidelity to the national democratic
ticket as nominated at Houston.
That’s more buncomb—all the candi-
dates long ago announced their ad-
herence to the democratic national
ticket.
The Colonel would “pass a law
whereby farmers could borrow direct
from the Government upon their pro-
ducts.” That’s old stuff, too, for Tex-
as has already the intermediate credit
bank. It is sound and safe—but there
must be somebody, some responsible
individual or organization, to act for
the Government. Was the candidate
ignorant; or was he presuming upon
the ignorance of his hearers? We,
like others have heard speak of Ows-
ley’s appearance here, “expected more
of the candidate than he delivered.

GIVE MOTHER A VACATION
You have heard the song that was
popular a few years ago, “Everybody
works but father.” That song was
not in any sense so true as this: “Ev-
erybody has a vacation but mother.”
The duties of house-keeping and home-
making are so exacting that Mother
often does not get a vacation—and
some mothers are so weighted down
with family cares that they do not
often get to leave the home for months
at a time—do not get to leave to come

to town to attend church, or to visit a
,
neighbor. The man who will not make
some sacrifices, who will not give
some thought and do some planning
to the end that his wife may have a
vacation now and then, is neither
thoughtful nor appreciative. The
sn of the home who are willing
and go and have their good
times” while mother always stays at
home and slaves for them are not very
■k'V;
appreciative children.
Suppose we say this year, and car-
ry it into execution, that Mother must
have a vacation. Suppose we get her
ready to attend the A. & M. Short
Course at College Station next week;
she would enjoy it, especially if she
went down to spend that week with
all those from Smith and adjoining
counties who will go.Sunday morning,
