Mrs. R. P. Bite.: and BUI Henson
I appreciate more than
words can speak the splendid
vote given in my behalf in the
last primary as your candidate
for State Representative. The
vote given me places me
slightly ahead of my nearest
opponent, and, therefore, a
"run-off primary” is necessary
on August 24, 1940. Please
remember that date, and give
me your further support and
influence. I am now, and
always have been, for the
principles of good government,
and fair play, and I pledge my
best endeavors in behalf of all
the people of Montague
County, Texas, (for I will rep-
resent all of you in accordance
with the principles of Demo-
cracy: let the majority rule.)
I stand for right against
wrong and the interests of the
citizens of Texas shall always
be protected in accordance
therewith.
I am not a politician, for I
fight for the principles I
stand for and I will appreciate
the support and Influence you
will give me, for without same.
I shall not be able to work for
your interests.
If elected. I promise an
honest, fair, courteous, and
thoughtful service in behalf of
the ENTIRE COUNTY and
State, and your rights will ever
be protected to the best of my
ability.
A vote for me means a vote
for the protection of your own
rights as a citizen of Texas,
and you may be assured that
I realize it is a duty to fulfill
my obligation as your Repre-
sentative, and unfettered
champion of your rights, for I
owe no special duty to any in-
dividual. association, corpora-
tion. clique or organization
and I have no personal axe to
grind
