GOVERNOR
RALPH YARBOROUGH
He is a good man. He is a
Democrat, .'.nd will support
the nominee of the Democrat-
ic Party.
The present Governor is not
a Democrat, and will not sup-
port the nominee of the Dem-
ocratic Party, unless he suits
him in every way. He is only
a part time Governor, and
draws full pay, but from re-
ports in the paper, he is not
in Austin half of the time. He
will not repeal a part of the
Automobile Law, that we now
have as it works a very hard-
ship on some of the people.
Yours for service,
TOM ROUNTREE
