9 fnaivw was similar to that by Dean

J. Frank Holmea. paBtor of the First
Christian church presided at the Bel
tun mrtiw
Introducing Dr. Butte to the people
of Temple Daniels called him "a
Christian gentleman ana a scnoiar
the Woodrow Wilson of Texas and
the next governor of this great em-
pire Bute."
"Jim Ferguson is making a
strenuous effort to capture the slan
vote" Daniel said. "He went before
th Rrata democratic executive com
tnittee at Houston recently and tried
to prevail on that committee to place
the name of Hurdleston. an admitted
klansman on tbe ticket for the State
railroad commissioner.
"I do not know bow the line up is
in other oarts of tbe State bnt 1 bold
in my hand a list of tbe speakers
tnmnine Bell county for Ferguson
The list includes 13 speakers two of
whom are non-residents of Bell coun-
ty. Of the remaining 11 speakers
even of them are now or have been
members fcf the klan.
Speaker Rapt Jim
Daniel arraixned Fercuson as '"at
tempting to attack tbe character of
Dr. Butte. No one anticipated he
would do otherwise. He is immune
himself from any attack and is the
greatest character assassin in the
United States. He has no vulnerable
spot. -Thee is no charge that can be
brought against him that would reflect
upon him in the eyes of his followers."
He called Dr. Butte the "peer of
any man who has announced for office
in Texas in the past quarter of a
century" and said bis election would
reflect credit to the State at home
and abroad.
Dr. Butte not only stuck by his
guns and delivered in full his set
speech including sll of his criticism
of Ferguson's public record but he
introduced additional points. He re-
ferred to Wednesday's issue of Fer-
guson's Forum. He said he was not
going to ask ladies to read it. He
called attention to an article by
"Goose Neck Bill McDonald" on its
editorial page and to an article on
the front page which claims that
nine out of every 10 negroes will sup-
port Fergudon.
"Is that the crowd you people want
to run with" he asked and was
greeted by long winded "No-o-ohs."
He referred to Ferguson's recent
Denton speech and called it "char-
acteristically Fergusonian."
"Did you read what he said to
those teachers?"

and you know thai paper would not
do Ferguson aa injustice Then
Butte quoted Fergoao" aaying that
"These Ku Kluxers you've got teach
ing here must get out
" 'I serve notice on yon' get the
I." Butte quoted adding "He didn't
even mention Ma that time.
" i serve notice on you that you
are not going to get tax money to
pay teachers who teach u is right
to tear down the republic'."
Butte termed this a "slanderous
assault."
He said that in an interview at
Austin yesterday Ferguson said the
same thing applied to the University
of Texas and all other State educa
tional institutions.
If that man in bis insane madness
waa restored to power be would dis-
rupt the educational aystem of the

aid adding that Ferguson had tried
to remove university teachers wbo
disagreed with his views.

October 23 1918. It reads: !
"In the face of the evident frauds In the primary election In
your senatorial district as disclosed before the committee of t
credentials at Waco and the action of the State democratic
convention in declaring Glasscock to be the lawful nominee for e
senator you are without doubt Justified in asking the voters of I
that senatorial district to scratch the name of Parr and write
the name of Glasscock on the ticket -before casting the ballot t
in the November election." j
"So I do not hesitate to say to my friends everywhere that 2
tbe Hobby crowd has deatcoyed the party pledge and party obll- J

out restraint as the chairman of the great executive committee S
has to urge primary voters to scratch the democratic ticket
