average Clarki,e, when called on TO

The logic Of the News figures is
that the democrats Of Texas, who have
triumphanty re elected the democratic
nominee, Governor James 5. Hogg, in
the face of the most powerful and un.
scrupulous combination of political
dishonesty AID corporate greed ever
known to the history Of the state,
should now apologize to those whom

as are willing to desert their party in
its hour Of supposed peril, when there
seems reasonable hope Of defeat
Those misguided democrats who were
dec eived or were led INTO the support
of either Clark or NJ ent, by the re

the Clark leaders, will be received
back into the fold whenever they get
ready to come.
Senator Coke, speaking of the Clark
people, has very aptly said: They
bolted out OF the democratic party,
and they know how to bolt back
And they ere boiling back. But the
leaders-the arch conspirators against
democratic supremacy and democratic
succession many ds,s to come,
must content themselves with seats in
the kitchen with the cook, and cold
corn dodgers with which to appease
their rsveuous political hunger
