LARGE CROWD
At POLITICAL
MASS MEETING
Mayor Black Greeted With
Cheers and Denies He
Asks Sympathy.
SIMPSON NOT THERE
Candidates of Citizens
Ticket Present Their
X Platform.

With the anomalous condition ex-
listing of q candidate for mayor and
the head of ticket receiving less OF
an ovation than the present mayor
during the course OF popular coll
vention, the Citizens Ticket made its
initial appearance before an over
flowing house at Beethoven Hall,
Tuesday evening.
The opening of the meeting was
characterized by a subtle touch that
could scarcely have been lost upon
members of the audience. y. w.
Stapleton, choir leader and assistant
pastor of the Travis Park Methodist
Church, led the audience in the sing
ing of sold Black joe" The effect
Of the song was not lost upon small
group of negroes in the gallery.
The meeting was called to order by
d. s. Davenport, a member OF the
State Legislature. Mr.. Davenport
suggested that committee be ap-
pointed to draw up the platform and
that while the committee, consisting
of p, L. Anderson, Mrs. L. A. Ed
ridge and w. NJ. Morgan, was work
ing upon the platform, he wanted to
introduce the best mayor that San Ans
tonic ever had.
Mayor o. Il. Black stepped forth
and opened his discourse by denying
that he wanted or needed sympathy.
He stated that he apologized to no
man for his actions. The mayors
statements were greeted with a wave
of applause. He picked up stick
and raped on the table, stating that
this was no council meeting.
Praises His Record.
he declared that his record was
hard to beat and that he had accom-
plished much in the face of 30 injunc-
tions. 2S of which he had won. He
declared that the steam roller run by
the city might flatten him out but
Il win jump up again. puff with
wind, and smile at them"
He advised the supporters Of the
Citizens Ticket to be good sports,
and to be good losers if they had TO
lose. Whoever the people elect. be
said, get in behind them and give them
your support.
Following the reading 81 the plat
form that had been prepared while
Mayor Black was delivering his short
address. l.. b. Stoner, Citizens Ticket
candidate for mayor arose. Less APP
plause greeted his appearance than
greeted the appearance of Mayor
Black.
In opening his address. Mr.. Stoner
stated that if Mayor Black had not
been hampered in any way during his
administration that he would not have
talked like he did tonight.
He stated that he had often been
asked what his views on law enforce
ment were. He told the audience that
in view Of the fact that he was a
member of the Travis Park Methodist
Church some might think that he
would be fanatical and puritanical in
his enforcement OF laws. He denied
that he would be unreasonable. He
promised the voters that the theaters,
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1923-04-11

that he was accustomed TO working in
his shirt sleeves, that the men in
the audience remove their coats. The
speaker set the example by removing
his coat, exposing a brown and what
appeared to be, silk shirt. With but
a few exceptions the audience failed
to respond to the invitation notwith-
standing repeated exhortations from
the speaker.
In speaking of the various candi-
dates in opposition to his ticket, he
stated that the voters would not want
to elect an ex-bartender for commits
sioner of streets and public improve
ments. He stated that more public
improvements have been made in the
last two years than in the four years
preceding and then blamed Commits
sioners Lambert and Wright for the
poor showing made during the preced-
ing two years. Mr.. LeStourgeon prom
is clean city.
Following the last speaker on the
ticket, the audience waited expectant-
ly for moment or two. There were
two well-known faces on the platform,
that of Ben Cordell and that of Rob
ert Coon. The audience called for Ben
COrdell TO come to the front.
Mr.. Cordell delivered the final ora
ton Of the evening. He stated that
the people were tired of Medina Lake
politics and that they were tired of
the domination of gunner. He stated
that he had paid for his poll tax and
that he was afraid of no man and
that no man could control his vote.
What the Platform Says.
The nine planks in the platform
adopted Tuesday night stated that the
ticket was for a business and not a
political administration that it was
opposed TO county and city politics
organizing into one body; that it
was in favor of low rates for gas:
that it was for the full dinner pail
without class distinctions that it
pledged itself to bring about lower
taxes and to discharge useless en-
ployes: that it was for flood proven
ton; that it was in favor OF extend
ing and improving the system of
parks; that it was in favor Of cap
able and efficient police force, and
that it pledged sane enforcement OF
, all laws on all persons.
/ An interesting sideli. ;ht in connec-
ton with the "Anti-ring" meeting was
contained in an incident occurring n
few minutes prior TO the opening of
the meeting. At that time, l.. ].
Hart was not on the platform. A man
came from the right entrance facing
the stage and passing BIZ the press ia
bles. inquired.
HAS anyone seen L. ]. Hart?"
Mr.. Hart appeared upon the stage.

ball grounds ard amusements would
not be molested, but that on the other
hand he would encourage clean amuse-
ments. He said that he would put the
l>bootleggers on the run.
He stated that he was for flood
prevention and clean streets.
Up until two years ago. San An
tonic had clean streets, Mr.. Stoner
told the audience. This remark. how
ever was greeted by n curious silence.
One of the most significant remarks
was made near the conclusion of the
speech.
II can't crate like Mayor Black. "
Mr.. Stoner asserted, land don't
want to, promise too much"
He closed his opening speech by
saying that he loved the city and that
he would strive to make good mayor.
PEARS Reads Speech. -
Glittering with generalities, the
speech of Herbert Peairs. candidate
for commissioner of police and fire,
was read from manuscript. He as
serted that the present commission
ers have refused TO put aside cheap
and petty politics. He stated that
Tobin has Haunted in the face OF the
voters the boast that he could get the
negro and Mexican vote and over
whelm the white vote of the city.
Mr.. PEARS wanted TO know why a
candidate would give up job paying
ST., 900, or $4,000 year to take
measly SJ000-a-year job. He de.
cIared that the Peoples ticket had
been selected with their yote-getting
qualifications. alone considered. and
that administrative qualities were over
looked,
Probably the best speech OF the
evening was made by +. g. koerps,
candidate for commissioner of taxa.
ton. A longer time was consumed
in the applause following the speech
than in the time consumed in the de-
livery of the speech itself.
Mr.. Koerps opened by enumeratins
his lodge affiliations. He stated that
| he was accustomed TO handle other
peoples money by reason of the fact
| that he had been an official in sew
eral lodges. He stated that there would
be no chair warmers or stool pigeons
in his office when he was elected.
Willard E. Simpson, candidate for
commissioner Of streets and public i'm
provements. was not present at the
| meeting. 1t was said from the plat
form that he had been detained al
J the last moment. Mr.. Davenport. as
chairman, spoke briefly in behalf OF
Mr.. Simpson.

The last of the candidates to speak
was F.. G. LeStourgeon. candidate for
commissioner of sanitation, parks and
public property. Mr.. LeStourgeon sug-
