Three Terms.
Comanche, Tex, Aug. 2, 1910.
Mr.. D. Y. Mckinney, Grand Prairie,
Texas.
Dear Sir:-Your letter of congrat-
ulations received. I very much ap-
preciate the earnest effort you made
in my behalf, and am more than graf
flied at the vote I received at Airing
ton.
We published your letter to Wat
son and the comment on it through
out the district and think it was a
potent factor in this election.
| hope to measure up in some de-
gree to the expectations of you and
my other friends throughout the dis
trict when I get to Washington, and
| am going to inform you about the
details of that garden seed business.
It's my judgment, looking at it from
afar, that it is seed house imposi-
ton. I know the seeds are of no &C
count for this country. I know the
cost of the seeds, and the cost of
franking them out to this section of
the country is that much of a waste
| am going to make it a point to
get personally acquainted with you as
soon as possible. In the meantime I
shall appreciate any communication
from you on any public question.
Your friend,
OSCAR CALLAWAY.
