Health reasons end Kearby bid for Texas governor
J C Kearby announces he cannot campaign for governor of Texas due to poor health. In a letter dated August 27 1900 he condemns the Democratic party’s 27 years in power, urges reform, and notes pressure from tenants and workers to run. He resigns as candidate and backs a ticket uniting anti Democratic forces.
