The sporting world knows Tex
Richard mostly as the promoter of
the famous Jeffries-Johnson match

When he was born in Kansas City,
Mo, in 1S71-Tex was As years old
the day after last New Years-he
was christened George Lewis. He
hadn't outgrown his boyhood, howev-

and became a eowpuneher. And II
was In Texas that Richard got his
nickname and learned all about
cows. And that boyhood knowledge
is making capital for him today.
But Richard didn't linger long in
Texas. Early in life he heard the
out trail calling and he has been
hearing II ever since. From the Lone

all over the West. He worked up in
Alaska and was one of the first over

That only is a crisp way of saying
that Tex hit Godfeld fat broke and

no doubt of the fact that he is well
qualified TO discharge the duties of
the office which he seeks, and that
his candidacy will receive careful
consideration at the hands of his
constituents is foregone conclusion.

serve as test of their efficiency.
