stale pursue in the com- ing campaign Will they make or i independent medicates Governor Uavis As lar as I can safely judge from conversions re- publicans and letters received I conclude that a very large majority of the party favor ing no nominations but voting for independent candidates I think it this will be the course of the republican convention meets here on August this is only my opinion What course do you think would be wisest for them to pursue I think very decidedly that republicans should act in harmony with those who are willing to join in redeeming the state from bourbon rule and this is feasible only by dropping party for the time being al and working for this end as Texans and fui the good of Texas What do you consider the most important the democracy of this state and opposition in the The most important questions icy are relating to public schools the management of school lund agement of the public lands and of immigration What do you regard as chiel o loss of on
