The <up challenger Shamrock wa>
drydoeked today to have her under’
body rleaned in preparation for tin
fourth race today with tin- defender
Resolute The next contest is over
a triangular cour.-e ten miles to the;
leg declared to he a Shamrock ad-

SANDY HOOK N. J. July 22 —
The American defender Resolute yes-
terday won her fir=t rare of the 11*20
series for the America’s cup. She
must take two more straight victories
to prevent Shamrock IV lifting the
trophy.
Taking the lead after the start the
American sloop hold first place on
most of the'first leg a 15-mile beat
to windward turned the mark first
and held almost to the finish line in
a stiff sailing bree/.e. Within a mile
of the finish. Shamrock drew along-
side hut Resolute granted a time
allowance of 7 minutes and 1 second
was safe.
Had it not h*»en for the time al-
lowance which the challenger had to
give she would perhaps have won be-
cause she finish'll 11* seconds ahead
of the defender. She crossed the
starting line however 19 seconds
ahead of Resolute and so boat for
boat by unofficial time lost the race
by 7 minutes and 1 second she had to
give the defender.
The elapsed time of the two sloops
was exactly equal after their struggle
over a HO-mile windward and leeward
course. Indeed to the novice the
result was in the nature of a paradox
for whereas Shamrock was first to
cross the finish line and took exactly
the same number of seconds to cover
the course she lost” because she had
to give Resolute a time allowance of
7 minutes and I second time to com-
pensate for her greater sail spread.
Th ■ elapsed time of both yachts
was 1:03:0fi by oficial figures Hn-
off'eial time gave Shamrock 1 second
more elapsed time than Resolu x.

The Starr county situation in 19061
at the time when Judge Seabury was
county chairman of the democratic
party there was brought up by him
in the course of a discussion of his
j political record his part in the elec-
tion in San Benito in 1910 and his
! part in the city election in Browns-
; vill** when he was city chairman in
i 1912 all being in reply to the Har-
bert Davenport “open letter.”
Judge Seabury said that at Rio
| Grande City in 1900 there was a
split in the democratic party (I. Duf-
fy a local leader turning over to the
republicans in the race there that
year giving the republicans as they
believed a chance to elect their tick-
et. The late District Judge Stanley
Welch was holding court there at tht
time* of the election and decided to
hold court over until after the elec-
tion in the hope that he would in that
help to prevent trouble. The night
before the election Judge Welch was
murdered in his bed. The following
day election day armed men were
stationed in line at the entrance to
the polls Mr. Seabury related and it
was necessary for him time and again
to go through this line to help dem-
ocratic voters reach the polls.
The result of the election was Mr.
Seabury said that the republicans re.
reived a slight majority in Rio Grande
City proper hut the county returns
gave the democrats the majority fi-
nally.
•Fudge Seabury said that following
this election he resigned as county
chairman of Stair county to be ap-
pointed county attorney to prosecute
the murderers of Judge Welch in
which prosecution he assisted District
Attorney John I. Kleiber the result
being that one man was sent to the
penitentiary for life. He resigned the
county attorneyship after the close of
the case.
"The facts at San Benito in 1JH0
were" said Judge Seabury "that I wa
not a supervisor of the election or an
election officer. I was there to help
to get out the democratic voters and
to use every effort to see that the
democratic voters were given an op-
portunity to vote. The rangers were
called in by the presiding officers to
preserve the peace. The two parties
kept their men separate and were
vote 1. one from one side and one from
th other. The polls were kept open
f< r fifteen minutes after *l>e legai
closing time ami when they closet!
we hail about thirty men unvoted and
the republicans had some fifty.
"What gave us the advantage at
that election was that the business-
men and the farmers voted with us.
If our men wanted to vote in a hurry
1 would not let them get ahead. Some
of them vent over to the republican
line leading them to believe they
were voting that ticket when they were
really voting ours. We won by bet-
ter organization and by better tactics
nothing else.
“In reference to the 1012 election
in Brownsville. 1 had nothing to do
with the selection of the presiding of-
ficers. They were selected by our
adversaries. In the fourth ward b*
cause of wrangling in the box. we
failed to get in a large number of the
voters and the election was won by
the independents by some two or thre«»
majority. The practices adopted at
that election was condemned at the
time by myself and by many others
who were certainly against it. One
thing that I might have done was to
take forcible possession of the polls
and one man sought to persuade me
to do this hut I refused.
“In reply td the charge that the
firm of Seabury & George is attempt-
ing to monopolize the public officers.
1 will say that Mr. A. M. Kent was
I solicited by Judge Wells to run for
county attorney. He had been county
i attorney before the war resigning to

thought thn* Wa •. ould be reappointed
or re-elected. So f-ir as Mr. Kent is
concerned I don’t know today wheth-
er he is supporting me or Judge
Spears. I will say. however that I
trust him. absolutely.
“As to James Taylor of Corpus
Christi. he is not in the race for dis-

SEABURY DENIES TWO
PUBLISHED ASSERTIONS
To The Herald:
In it" “news” columns The Sentinel
ithis morn'ng carries two assertion*
that I want to deny. One of these
is in regard to certain remarks alleged
to have been made by me at Point
Isabel last August in a conversation
with Collin* and Laroche. There was
no such conversation. What did hap.
pen yas this. One day I found a man
there engaged in discussing the
faults of the Democratic National
Administration in the conduct of the
'war. Collins and Laroche were about
the olace but took no part in the con-
versation that followed. The man per-
mitted him*elf to say things about
this country its government and the
patriotism of its people that he him-
self could hardlv believe and which I.
1 fcr one as an American citizen could
not calmlv listen to. I denied the
truth of his charges that American
employers as a class were refusing
to give back their old jobs to return-
ing soldiers; and said that I knew this
was not true as a general proposition
that if true in individual cases Amer-
ican employer* as a class should not
be cursed and abused and further-
more before i abused an individual
employer I would want to know what
claims the new employe had on the
ex-soldier's old job. I did not say.
nor have I ever thought that an em-
p’oyer would be foolish to give back
the job to the returned soldier if he
had filled the vacancy with a cheaper
man; mv own record in filling my of-
fice with returned soldiers and ma-
rines at higher wages than their pre-
decessors got should show what I
think of this matter. In that con-
versation something was said about
not much blaming draft dodgers and
[stackers for quitting a country that
gave the old soldiers so raw a deal
and even voted away their customary
beverages while thev were away fight-
ing; hut that something most em-
phatically was not said hy me and in
justice to the others present I will
add that the man who said it was
angry at my defense of the admin-
istration and raid much more than he
really believed.
The other item is Judge Spears al-
leged statement in his address at San
Benito yesterday "that any man who
represented a man before the draft
heard for nay is not an American."
Judge* Spears said something quite
different the substance being that
any lawyer who appeared before the
draft board and succeeded in ex-
empting from military service a man
who ought to have been inducted was
not a good American. A statement
which I for one applauded as that
is n.y view exactly. Judge Spears
himself represented at least one client
before the first draft hoard and I
don't suppose he would deny it for
the fact is to his credit provided al-
ways that he handled his case in a
legitimate and honorable manner as
he naturally would. Naturally neith-
er he nor I failed in our duty when
the later draft regulations required us
to give free assistance to all.
I don't mind ordinary mud-slinging
from a certain type of politician. It
gives him pleasure to dabble in the
mud and it does me no harm however
annoying it may be to my friends.
But I don't like The Sentinel to fea-
ture the stand-pat candidate as a
slinger of mud when at least in this
instance he is blameless.
