Demands on Texas Democrats Echoed by Judge Poindexter
A State wide appeal urges Texas Democrats to preserve old time democracy and state sovereignty against centralized federal control. Judge Poindexter, a leading prohibitionist, warns that abandoning state rights on suffrage and liquor licensing risks undermining democracy and local self government. Governor Ferguson’s stance on women’s suffrage is praised for seeking state freedom from federal recommendations, while calls to mobilize voters for primaries appear in the same newspapers.
