In speaking of martial law at
Mexia and the campaign agatnst
lawlessness there, he said that he
“was unwilling for the tow in the
very center of Texas civilization to
bow at the feet of the gambler, the
thug, the bootlegger, the thief and
the outlaw. Therefore, martial law
was declared."
He said that several months ago
thieves and other law beeak ere mo-
bilised at Mexia to ply their trades
Places of lawlesenesa guarded by
armed men were opened in arrogant
defiance of the law and for weeks
allowed to run unmolested he said.
Speaking of tbs prohibition law,
the governor said:
"The people of the state and the
nation by solemn constitutional and

all the power of big office. We wiU
have gone a long way in abolishing
mob violence when it is understood
that an officer loses his position if
he fails to prqect his prisoner.
Lynchers should be prosecuted.
They should be tried in some ad-
joining county rather than in the
community in which the lynching
took place. This is done in other
states.
Texas Takes Lead.
"We had four lynchings in Texas
last month. If the officers who
permitted these lynchings should
be made to lose their office and in
addition to that, the state should
hang about a dozen high-grade
lynchers, Texas would no longer
lead the world in the blood-written
records of Judge Lynch’s court
The governor also reiterated his
statement of his dispatch to the
people last Saturday when he de-
clared that rumblings of a revolt
are audible in Texaa He said:
•The general revolt against gov-
ernmental authority is seen today
in every land. Rumblings of dis-
respect for law ride upon the wings
of every wind. We have an unpre-
cedented growth of crimes. Our
homes and highways have become
