"Mr. Joel Kincannon,
Bruceville, Texas.
Dear Sir:—
Replying to your favor of August 4th, with ref-
erence to ex-Governor Jas. E. Ferguson’s charges
that Hon. Earle B. Mayfield visited our club , and
took his highballs holding his right to. do this in
the name of his wife’s membership, will say that
prior to April 16, 1919, neither Mr. nor Mrs. May-
field belonged to our Country Club, but on that
date they were elected jointly to membership in the
club. You will not that on this date there was no
liquor being sold openly in Texas.
“Hoping that the above information will suffice,
we are, Yours very truly,
THE AUSTIN COUNTRY CLUB,
(Signed) By F. E. Pryor, Secretary.”
The Secretary, Mr. Pryor, told the editor of the
HOME AND STATE that he at once mailed a
copy of this letter to Jas. E. Ferguson so that he
could correct his statements if he wanted to. The
public will be able to estimate the character of the
man that continues to make these statements in the
face of proof to the contrary.
The impeached Governor introduced into Texas
the new style of campaigning now known as pole-
cat politics] When it was new, he won. Others
are emulating his style until the political life of
Texas has become a stench in the nostrils of our
neighboring States.
On August 26th the decent citizenry of Texas will
rebuke the pole-cat politics till we trust it will never
show its head again.
ness was on the stand that he testified that in re-
/ponse to the officer’s command, Judge Showers
had lifted his hands up on a level with his face and
kept them up there and then also testified that he
was trying to push the gun away from his stomache.
As soon as he gave this testimony, the prosecuting
Relating to the charges that Mayfield holds the

Newspapers bring report to the effect that Pat
Harrison of Mississippi and Governor Cox of Ohio,
who led the Democrats to their Waterloo at the
last election, are endeavoring to push themselves into
the lead again. Pat is one of those prohibitionists
that perfers voting for an anti for office. Such pros
are more dangerous to the cause than a half dozen
antis. If the Democrats allow Jimmie Cox to take
a dish in its National affairs it had just as well pre-
House. The sooner the Democrats learn this and
take hold of the situation and prevent it, the better
it will be for their cause.
• Parts of Canada legalize the sale of beer and wine. At a recent
meeting of the Presbyterian Synod of Montreal and Ottowa, that
body placed itself on record for total prohibition and against the beer
and wine law, in the following language:
“Resolved, (1) That the Synod records its conviction that there is
no remedy for the tiaffic in intoxicants but total prohibition, and
appeals to her membership in Ontario to exert every effort in the
coming referendum to secure as large a majority as possible in favor
of crushing out this great evil.
“(2) That the Synod expresses its belief that the wine and beer
law in* the Province of Quebec has so far proved a conspicious fail-
ure, that it deplores the flagrant way in which this law is violated
in the large centres, and that it calls on the Government of the
Province either to enforce the law rigidly or to put upon the statute
books a measure of total prohibition, with adequate machinery for its

Recently when the Democratic Executive Committee met to
arrange for the primary for July 22nd, the Association Against the
Prohibition Amendment sent up a petition for beer and wine claimed
to have been signed by 60,000 voters, 11,000 of whom well in San
Antonio and 8,000 in Houston. Jim Ferguson made the only ap-
peal for its consideration. Jim Ferguson is the Imperial Wizard of
the outlawed liquor traffic of Texas.
WHAT DOES THE ASSOCIATION AGAINST THE PROHI-
BITION AMENDMENT STAND FOR?
In all their literature sent out their purposes are stated in the
Federal Prohibition Agents W. A. Nitzer and M.
T. Gunsaullos of Dalias in arresting a violator of_the
Volstead Act in Beaumont on the night of July
22nd, killed him. His name was H. E. Showers and
he was Justice of the Peace. He was caught in the
act of violating the law in front of Billy Hunte is
place. Gunsaullos had bought liquor from Billy
Hunter and they were going there to raid his place.
The place had given the local police much trouble
and Judge Showers had refused to grant a warrant
to searc this place. The evidence in the trial in-
dicated that Judge Showers had frequently threat-
ened to kill any Federal Agent that tried to arrest
him. The evidence all went to. show that he was
endeavoring to get a 32 automatic out of his pocket
where it had evidently got caught, and only when
the Federal Agent saw a part of the gun coming
out of the pocket did he shoot. As an officer o
the United States Government, he was in the dis-
charge of his duty and shot in self defense.
After the shooting he surrendered to the police
and was later carried before Justice of the Peace
Ward. While in Beaumont we heard a report that
Judge Ward had refused to issue search warrants
on the bootleggers about two weeks before the
primary election on the ground that it might defeat
him for re-election. Judge Ward refused to al ow
Mr. Gunsaullos bail and himself ordered Mr. Nitzer
J his mud-slinging is having the opposite effect from
what it had against Tom Ball. It is reported that
while speaking at Bertram a telegram was received,
the substance of which was: for him to let up on
his mud-slinging, it was re-acting against him.
The liquor interests of Texas, under the leader-
ship of the impeached Governor, are endeavoring
to pull off the same stunt that they did in 1914
when Col. Tom Ball ran for Governor. The reader
will remember that then thousands of men were
hired by the liquor interests to go all over the State
from town,to town and engage the citizens on the
streets in private conversation. Where they found
a man in favor of Col. Ball, these men would make
a statement like this to them: “I am an old friend
of Col. Ball’s. Whenever I go to Houston he takes
me around to the club and we drink liquor and play
poker together. I am very fond of him and expect
to vote for him, but I regret to say that he drinks
and gambles regularly.” .
There was not one word of .truth in what they
were saying. These men did not even know Col-
Ball. They were emissaries of the liquor traffic sent
out, skunk style, to libel the good name of Col. Ball
in order that the liquor traffic may dominate liquor.
They are attempting to do the same thing in the
run-off primary. Reports from various sources in-
dicate that immense funds are coming down from
New York to help the disabled liquor traffic in
Texas. From all over Texas letters indicate that
these pole-cats are walking the streets of the vil-
lages and towns engaging in conversation: with citi-
zens and where they find a friend of Earle Mayfield s
they make a similar speel. They say: Earle and
I are old-time friends. I think a heap of Earle, and
I am going to vote for him, but I regret to say that
Earle plays poker and drinks liquor. We drank a
bottle of bootleg liquor together recently at the
hotel.” m ,
All of this is absolutely false. These men who
are telling it don’t even know Earle Mayfield, they
are emissaries of the liquor traffic. ... ,
Let the good citizenry beware of the fraud and
at the coming election rebuke the pole-cat politics
so that it will never show its head again. It is a
disgrace to Texas.

THE CASE OF NITZER AND GUNSAULLOS.
The people understand that he is endeavoring to
produce a smoke screen through which the people attorney ended his question, the contradiction was
The friends of Cullen F. Thomas are very
much disappointed at the result of the first
primary. A peerless orator, a sound states-
man, a devout Christian, a champion for the
right, a born fighter, many expected him to be
our next United States Senator.
We think there can be but little question
but that Mr. Thomas was in the lead in this
race until the question of the Ku Klux Klan
was forced into this campaign, which ques-
tion really did not belong to the Senatorial
race. At this stage of the game there is not
one thing that the United States Senate can
do concerning the prevention of the Ku Klux.
Mr. Thomas, in reply to the questionairc,
gave an honest, sincere, sane and candid reply,
but they accused him of straddling the issue
and he lost.
Mr. Mayfield boldly spurned the question-
naire and refused to answer it and also to
Up in Pennsylvania they boldly threw off the mask and an-
nounced that the campaign was being conducted by the “LI-
QUOR DEALERS’ ASSOCIATION.” They opposed the nom-
ination of Congressman Clyde Kelley, of the 33rd District. After .
the election in which he received a majority of 11,900 on the Repub-
lican ticket and a majority of 3 to 1 on the Democratic ticket and all
the vote of the prohibition ticket over his opponent, Congressman
Kelley said:
“In my own district I saw the power of the outlaws and the
power of the people. Allegheny County Liquor Dealers’ Associa-
tion, whose very existence is an insulting challenge to the Constitu-
tion and laws of this country, officially endorsed my opponent and
supplied him with large sums of money, levied from license-holders
and bootleggers. Seventy-five thousand dollars was expended and
every method known to polefcat fighters was brought into use.”
YOUR CONSTITUTION.
The reader will see a nation-wide conspirary to submarine the
Constitution of the United States. What does that mean to you?
Every guarantee of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness de-
.pends upon the Constitution. Every personal and property right that
any individual citizen has in (the State depends upon it. It is the
charter of liberty, of right, and the shield protecting our property and
our instittuions.
Trample one part of that Constitution under foot, tear it to shreds,
make it a mere scrap of paper and anarchy, bolsehvism and lawless-
ness must result.
Citizens of Texas, you will answer that at the ballot box. What
will your answer be? .

than the mortality rate on the battle line of the
American army sent over seas during the war. Let
the good people of our country realize that the
Federal Agents sent to enforce the Eighteenth
Amendment are heroes of the flag, giving their
lives in defense of our constitution.
Mr. David II. Morris, State Prohibition Director;
C. A. Warnken, Legal Advisor; Morris A. Moore
and Mr. W. C. Guinn, Federal Agents; Mr. Bryant
and Mr. Bennett, Federal Attorney and Assistant
Federal Attorney, and Mr. Phil Baer, United States
Marshal for the District wer eall present in the in-
terest of these men. Mr. Fletcher Jones, a lawyer
and a friend of Mr. Gunsaullos, was also present.
The Anti-Saloon League is making strict demands
that all officers, State and Federal, honstly and
faithfully discharge their duties. These two men,
Wm. A. Nitzer and M. T. Gonzalles, are efficient
and honest. In such cases the League will fight to
the last for such men.
When all the evidence was in Federal Judge Estes
stated to the court that it was his opinion that he
should dismiss the case against Mr. Nitzer and Mr.
Gonzallos, but that he would give both sides two
weeks to present their argument, and in the mean
time he would release the gentlemen on $1,000 bond
each.
It is but right to state here that the good citizens
of Beaumont while deeply regretting the tradegy,
arc in hearty sympathy with the officers in the
enforcement of the prohibition law. Many of the
leading citizens readily signed their bond, and had
it been necessary a bond for any amount would have
been signed by the local citizens.
States shall enact an enforcement code. To repeal it would force
Congress to perjure itself, for every member, on taking his seat
pledges himself to support the constitution. To repeal the Vol-
stead Act would leave that pledge unfulfilled and Congress per-
jured.
Will you vote a request to Congress to perjure itself? Jim
Ferguson is perfectly willing to so perjure himself, but what about
you?
It would stultify the American manhood and womanhood who
had written in the legal orderly way a provision in the Constitu-
tion and who thus vote to ignore that Constitution.
TO DESTROY THE EIGHTEENTH AMENDMENT.
2. The second- purpose of the association as stated above is
to permit each State to place its own construction upon the 18th
Amendment and to enact whatsover measure it may desire for its
enforcement. This would put the prohibition question right back
to where it was before the adoption of the 18th Amendment, for
at that time each State was permitted and was passing its own
enforcement measures. So this proposition is to submarine the
18th Amendment, not legally to repeal the amendment, but by
fraud to destroy it.
Jim Ferguson is perfectly willing to perpetrate the fraud. Will
you give him the authority to do so by your vote?
BEER AND WINE.
3. The third purpose of the Association that is backing Jim
Ferguson is to legalize the sale of beer and light wine. As abund-
antly shown elsewhere in this issue of the HOME AND STATE,
this would prevent the enforcement of the 18th Amendment,
would make a farce of the law.
Jim Ferguson is willing thus to make a farce of the Constitu-
tion. Will you authorize him to do it with your vote?
THIS IS A NATION-WIDE CAMPAIGN.

4 Federal officer charged with an offense while
in the discharge of his duty as a Federal officer
cannot be tried before the State Court, nor hold in
prison by State officers. If they could, a state un-
friendly to the Federal Government could paralize
the Federal Government’s activities in that State by
.putting, on one excuse or another, the Federa
’officers in prison. .
Itwas the duty of Judge Y ard to bind these men
to the Federal Court. Without authority the local
Grand Jury hastily returned indictments of murder
against the two men. When the editor of the
HOME AND STATE learned of these facts
through the press and knowing from much obsei-
vation how the friends of John Barleycorn can
“frame” on the Federal officers, he went immediate-
ly to Beaumont as a friend of the government to
investigate and to use his influence to the end that
these officers were given their just rights.
When we arrived in Beaumont, the bootleggers
and their friends were very much outraged, and of
course the members of the Grand Jury were a little
sore. A strenuous effort had been made to create
the impression in the town that these officers of Lie
Federal Government who had been forced to kill
a man in self defense while in the discharge of their
sworn duties were nothing more than common mur-
derers. They had really dared to talk of lynching
-he Government’s representatives. The result was
that good men and good women did not know just
what to think of the situation.
Of course all such situations are taken advan-
tage of by the enemies of prohibition to create prej-
udice against the prohibition laws. The friends of
John Barleycorn were holding high carnival over
’he victory they were winning until the Superin-
tendent of the Anti-Saloon League arrived on the
ground. , , , . .
By this we do not mean that, the good citizens
were not backing the Government. Beaumont has
as true and tried prohibitionists as any city in the
State, and these can be relied upon any time.
But it is a fact that some good people in Texas
do not know to what extent the illegal liquor traffic
is fortified in some of the wet. sections. Down the
bayou from Beaumont, there is a section that has
been mapped off by the bootleggers and moon-
shiners over which they keep armed guards who
forbid anvbody entering that section. Also the
good people of Beaumont had not had an opportuni-
ty of hearing the officers’ side of the tragedy. Only
the enemies’ story had been told.
We heard the evidence and if we remember cor-
recently, among all the supposed eye witnesses put
on the stand by the prosecution, only one of them
did not confess on the stand that he himself had
been indicted, and that one told a story entirely
different from the rest. One of the witnesses con-
fessed that he had_ plead guilty as a gambler and
been indicted for deserting his wife and children.
Another witness on the stand swore that the name
he gave when taking the stand was correct and that
he had never in his life gone under any other name,
and then confessed on the stand that he had been
indicted under entirely a different name. He had
been indicted in that very court at its last term for
violating the Volstead Act. It was while this wit-
THE IMPEACHED GOVERNOR IN-
VITES A COMMITTEE TO EXAMINE
THE PERSONAL RECORDS OF HIM-
SELF AND MR. MAYFIELD.
Of late the impeached Governor has been re-
peatedly issuing a challenge to submit the record
of his conduct with that of Earle Mayfield to 100
good women. This might be all right, but for the
fact that any decent woman would have to clamp
her nose with a clothes pin before she could afford
to peep into Jim Ferguson’s record and we do not
believe that there will be 100 women in Texas
willing thus to punish themselves for such a peep.
THE FRIENDS OF THE IMPEACHED
GOVERNOR ARE ENDEAVORING TO
CREATE THE IMPRESSION ALL OVER
THE STATE THAT HE WAS IM-
PEACHED BECAUSE OF POLITICAL
PREJUDICES. NOT A WORD OF
TRUTH IN IT. HE WAS IMPEACHED
FOR HIS OUTRAGEOUS CROOKED-
NESS IN OFFICE. (See the records.)
5. Police force increased 30 for traffic purposes.
Population has increased about 30,000. Special
attention has been given since May, 1921, to arrest-
ing violators of liquor laws.
Police Commissioner Louis Turley says of thirty
additional police, “These men are used for traffic,
and were not placed in the department on account
of whiskey traffic.”
He further says “the fact is that in the old days
as long as man could walk he was not arrested,
but at the present the arrest is always made.” “It
is foolishness for any man to state that conditions
are worse now than they were when we had open
saloons. And I do not hesitate to say that a man
who makes this statement is totally misinformed, or
is absolutely dishonest in making the statement.”
JIMMIE COX AGAIN TRYING TO SCUTTLE
DEMOCRATIC SHIP.
Jim Ferguson, when in office, had no love for
Woodrow Wilson, when running for president on
the American Party ticket-denounced him, but when
running for United States Senator on the Demo-
cratic ticket, he slobbers over Woodrow Wilson
very much, and claimed to be a “Wilsonian Demo-
crat.”
What are the records? The outstanding achieve-
ments of the Woodrow Wilson administration was
the Federal Reserve Bank Act that saved our nation
from disaster at the opening of the World War
and enabled us to fight a successful war when we
got into it. Jim Ferguson is fighting this act with
all his might. His acts speak lounder than his
words. He makes love to Woodrow Wilson now
to get into office.
