COLORADO CITY MAN
WANTS COLLECTOR JOB
Y. ID. Wc1Iurray Writes FL Paso Friends
for support; job Seekers Avnft
Return of Cobb.

Y. D. McMurray, a merchant of Colo
RADIO City, Texas, and formerly sheriff
in that county, wants 10 be a collector
OF customs for the port of FL PasO. He
has written his friends here urging
them to support him for the place.
Letters from McMurray have been
referred to Zach Cobb and his friends
have suggested that he write Cobb in
regard to the place.
Some local Democrats are of the
opinion that a man in this district, but
outside OF the city Of FL Paso, may get
the job. They point to the fact that
the present collector, A. L. Sharpe, came
from the lower valley, and Pat Garrett,
when appointed collector by Roosevelt
was a resident OF New Mexico.
There are some who believe that FL
FasO city viii merely get the pOstmas-
ter and president Wilson Will go out
of the county and possibly out of the
district to select men for the other
positions.
Zach l. Cobb is expected to return
from Austin, Texas, tonight OF Tues
