Charges Long Arm of

To the Valley

RIO HONDO, July 2l.-In a de-
bate filled with thrusts and coun-
ter-thrusts Of a personal nature, the
Garner-Hardin race for congress
was further aired Saturday night
this time before a crowd Of about
a hundred persons assembled in the
auditorium of the Rio Hondo school.
Judge II. L. Yates of Brownsville
represented Congressman John n
Garner, and Sid L. Hardin Of Mis-
sion spoke in behalf Of his own can
didacy. Yates spoke first.
Characterizing Hardin as a "soap
box orator" and a "demagogue OF
the worst type" Judge Yates de-
clared that Hardin also proved HIM
self a ghoul by attacking Judge
James B. Wells, a man "five years
in his grave"
Judge Yates read statements from
officials Of the four Brownsville
banks testifying as 10 his credit and
reputation in refuting charges which
he said Hardin made against him
Friday night.
He said that Hardin had "memor-
lied a set speech, which ne reels off
TO you, and | may make some of his
speech to you" He mentioned brief
ly the emergency tariff. and de-
clared that a "doorkeeper in the
willard hotel would have more in
fluence the first four years than this
soap box orator"
Garner Will Write Tariff
In launching into the tariff mat
ter in earnest Judge Yates declared
that Congressman Garner as leader
Of his party will write the next tar
iff measure, IL the democrats secure
a majority, "as we now believe" and
said that Garner would not be re-
stricted as in the past on account
of the stand Of the democratic party
for a protective tariff at the Hous-
ton convention.
He launched into prohibition next.

matter with the statement that "pro-
