To Mr. Tom Lea:
DEAR TOM: Some few days ago I naked you why you
could not go to Juarez. It la a matter of some importance that
the mayor or El Paso be able to visit -that city. Much' of his
time during the past two years has been spent in looking after
the relief of American cltlsehi who were In trouble there and
it la likely that during the next two years ha will be called upon
to perforan many lki- missions. It mattered little what the
cauae waa that would prevent him from performing thla service.
If ha could iAt perform It his uaefulneaa aa a mayo waa Im-
paired. I am glad to aee that your frlenda have secured for
you the privilege of Waiting Juares and In the future you will
not labor under the disability that fuTmsrly existed. It la un-
necessary therefore to say anything further about the matter
However I am Informed that you amid In your speeoh laat
night that In this campaign you were asking questions not
answering them. Isn't that a somewhat arrogant attitude for a
man who seeks the suffrages of a free people 7 Doesn't It In
dlcate a desire to be a dlctAtorT Why will you not tell where
you stand upon public questions? Is there anything to conceal t
The people know my record and know for what I stand. You
refuse to tell them where you stand. I
Is true aa reported to me that you said in your speeoh
Friday night that yon had not had time to state your platform
that It would not do?
lt me ask you a tew more question I hare answered all
questions. The people all know where X stand and while yoxir
former law partner Dan Jackson who happens to be a district
judge (and who spends moat of his time trying to look like Joe
Bailey) acting In his most dignified judicial manner and ac-
companying hla statements with the most beautiful choloe and
gentlemanly expressions suya trust I am yellow and am a cow-
ard at heart yet I have not been cowardly enough to dodge u
Ingle question nor have I been yellow enough to reflect upon
the character of any man by insinuation or inusado.
Now for the benefit of the public answer:
1. "Whire do you atand upoa tha question of locating; atoek
yards within the gity limits?
Í. Do you atlll Insist upoa your charge (for which there is
no foundation ) that the school teachers of El Paso are neglect-
ing their work and) aye walking the streets to electioneer for me ?
. Do you atlll endorse the statement of your law partner
Mr. R. E. Thomason thatafter Mr. J. E. Morgan bid upon the
high school no other contractor had a chañes? Do you believe
that the men who compos the school board J. C Worthlng-
ton Claiborne Adama. Dr. J. A. Pickett. Frank Simmons R. h.
Holiday. H. R. McCltntock would betray their truat and award
the contract to Mr. Morgan If he were not entitled to It? You
have had a chance to repudiate this attack why have you not
dona so?
. asorsan's bid was 11000 lea than that of his lowest
competitor. Would you have awarded the contract to him or
would you not? You know that he Is a responsible oitlssn
It is Interesting to know how you stand on this because the
mayor of the city will often have occasion. In conjunction with
the olty council to act upon competitive bids. JT
6. Do you still by your refusal to repudiate the attacks
made by your anonymous press representatives upon Dr. Her-
bert Ward endorse those reflections upon hit Integrity? ills
friends have a light to know.
. You said In your speech that you wouldn't go into tha
primaries because you could not stomach me. Does your wil-
lingness to support a Democratic nominee depend upon your
liking or disliking the man nominated? Is this your Idea of
party royalty? Why da you go into the primaries thla year?
Have I grown better or are you leas particular?

THE WORD HELL.
A Little Book That Contains Some Startling
Information.
A little book selling at only five cents.
postpaid Is having a very wide circulation
running up Into the millions. It contains
some very startling Information respecting
the meaning of the word Hell. It claims to
demonstrate both from Ihe Hebrew and the
(reek of our Bible that Hell Is not place
of eternal torment but merely another
name ror the tomb tbe grave the state of
death. It affects to show that man was not
redeemed from i fir-off place of eternal
torture but quotes tbe Scriptures proving
that be wis redeemed from the grave at
the cost of his Redeemer's life and tbit
the scriptural hope both for tbe church
and for tbe world Is a resurrection of
Jesus. The book Is certainly worth the
reading. The Information It furnishes la
certainly valuable far beyond Its trifling
