LIVES I did belong to the ring at
one time, but their politics
and methods are so rotten
that I finally decided TO quit them.
This was the statement of George Pen
dell in a speech before the FL PasO
City and County Democratic club Fri
day night at a meeting attended by an
enthusiastic crowd that thrOnged the
hall.
Among other things Mr.. PendeH said
that ne could make affidavit Of the
fact that at his former precinct at
Nsieta, MeXicans who held poll taxes
were teted until they became intOXi-
Gated the night before election and
were then herded into a corral until
the following morning, when they were
given more booze ana then driven to
the election booths to vote the ring
ticket He said that this practice did
not exist solely in Ysleta, but that the
method was also used here in FL PasO,
the city corral being used as a place OF
detention overnight
Mr. Pendeu further stated that cal
though I formerly had respect for
mayor c. Z. Kelly for some things, I
lost It all when Kelly openly declared
at recent Adclub banquet that he
could be mayor of FL PasO as long as
he lived If he chose. This statement
made me feel that Kelly considered
me and all other voters as his slaves"
Wyatt Urges Action.
The meeting was presided over by
John NJ. Wyatt as chairman. I'VE have
put in the field the best ticket ever
put out in the city of Ell Paso and we
want to put the full power Of this club
behind the entire ticket" said Mr..
Wyatt There is not a man on the
ticket who is seeking office. Every
single one Of them has been sought out
and is making great sacrifices in run
ming and 1 firmly believe that this club
will fight as a unity to the last ditch
TO elect this ticket.
4 wish to further say that 7 heartily
congratulate the ring men upon their
decision to put a stop to the black
guarding of candidates. The present
city administration has claimed that
they are entitled to great praise for
the reduction of the insurance key rate.
They are not The people who are re-
ally entitled to the credit are the mem
bers Of the state legislature. I do be-
lieve that the present administration
has made one good move in the inaugu-
ration of the Fairgrounds system. dc
not think that airy good citizen opposes
it, regardless Of his politics. This one
good move however, has more than
been cOunterbalanced by the ills which
the present administration has been
guilty Of
I'VE are conducting this campaign
upon an entirely different basis than
that upon Which others have been con-
Quoted. Instead Of taking the de-
