hlmaelf a' candidate for Qorernor of
Texaa. Orubba haa had a grouch for
a long tfme becauae aome of the re-

probably now haa a ault pending
agalnat them for aome supposed dis
regard for hla wiahee. Orubba la
public spirited man and bal done
well In promoting the cauae of voca

the good name and honor and moral
political and educational welfare of
the atate l at stake It lll-becomei
him to butt In and possibly secure
enough votea lo prevent Hobby gel
ting a majorlly In the July primaries
nnd thua prolong a atrife of bitter-
ness and vituperation through a ae-c-ond
primary. If Judge Orubba knew
nnd fell the Importance of a peace-
ful progressive administration as do
the people who have been here all
the time he aurely would koep out
of a campaign that cannot possibly
bring him or the Hate any good.
