Apostle Cowley, strong supporter
of Tom, came under the spell and
lost his apostolic cloak.
Tom was Frank Knox's hoodoo

JOS Lippman, Toms senatorial
campaign manager has had bad luck
in every way ever since.

self for Tom sake in the Eula

The hand of the hoodoo rested so
heavily on Ezra Thompson that he
resigned from the mayorality of this
city.
Tom himself lost senatorship,
lost political power, lost a great deal
of his wealth and is now almost an
exile from the state.
The Tribune, TOMS organ, once
great and powerful is neither feared

subscribers and is despised by decent
