The talk about inducing Frank
LAWYER to withdraw from bis indie.
pendent candidacy In the Fourth
District to accept the regular Demo.
cratic nomination In the Second Dis.
trict against Billy Lorimcr and John
Il. White has stirred up hornets
nest Of opposition and an emphatic
buzz Of protest. Although the sug.
gestion Is said to have emanated
from Mayor Hopkins before he left
the city, rs q feasible means Of set.
Ting factional differences, the Demo.
Gratis OF the Second District will not
listen to the plan and are loud In
their protests that they have enough
good Democratic Congressional tim
Der and that the voters OF the dis
trict would resent the advent OF Law.
Ter to such an extent that 1t would
make the district doubtful In the
election. While Lawlcr gave the
matter due consideration his friends
induced him TO believe that 1t was
too late to make the switch, and he
thereupon has proceeded to file his
petition with the County Clerk as an
independent candidate.
The discussion aroused by, the
proposition has had the result OF
bringing q number OF straightOut
candidates from under cover In the
Second District. Among these are
John j. Bryant, a retired Board OF
Trade man living In Riverside, and
Hon. r. II. Jampolis, of Austin. Mr..
Jampo.is appears to be the favOritc
Of a strong combination OF practical
politicians, numbering among other.
Clayton f. Crafts and George Wei
mer and certain ward and district
committeeman. These supporters OF
Mr.. Jampolis claim the people OF the
district want q man OF business
training to represent them, and tina,
the Austin candidate would poll q
large Republican vote. This, with
the increased vote In the drainage
district, it Is said, would elect the
candidate beyond peradventure.
