Edinburg, Tex, Oct. 29.-The
second step in the case of E. H.
Goodrich, ct al VS.. ]. Webb ct al,
which is of such vital Importance to
the forthcoming election in Cameron
county, was taken today when A. &.
Cole, candidate on the independent
ticket for county judge, filed a plea
In abatement before District Judge
w. B. Hopkins, in an effort to inter
vene in the case, his object being to
become a co-defendant with J. Webb.
The entire day was spent in argu-
ing the plea filed by Mr.. Cole. The
attempted Intervention is opposed
by the plaintiffs, or the democratic
nominees of Cameron county, and
also by j. Webb, the defendant, rep
resented by w. r. Jones.
Argument on the plea was not
completed, because of the sudden
illness of Jim Dougherty, the Bee
vile lawyer, who is one of the law
yers for the plaintiffs. Adjournment
was taken at $50 because of Mr.
Dougherty's illness, and the hearing
will be resumed tomorrow morning
at o'clock
Mr.. Dougherty is entirely recover
ed tonight, and is at work again on
the cases in preparation for tomor-
row.
The arguments today were pre-
sented by R. B. Creager and Dr. W
J. Doughertyfi, representing the indie
pendents, and w. r Jones and jim
Dougherty, representing the dems-
cratic side of the controversy.
Little interest in the case was in
evidence, as the argument is rather
dry and altogether technical. Only
twenty people at the most were in
the court room at any time during
the day.
