Hon. W. G. Gillis county judge and famed speaker addressed about 155 voters in Gause in a joint debate with Hon. U. S. Hearrell. Hearrell and Gillis discussed Pat M. Neff’s candidacy and platform, with emphasis on land policy and the Watson case.
Judge Gillis reviews Robert Ewing Thomason’s life from Cooke county, lauds his public trust and prosecuting record, and attacks Neff on land tax proposals. He cites Cameron remarks and Hogg alien land law while urging opposition to land monopoly and urging clean elections. Hearrell counters with repeated land stance.
Houston Chronicle editorial argues for Robert E. Thomason as the strongest Democratic nominee in Texas. It praises his state focus, alignment with Wilson era principles, and separation from national squabbles, claiming he would govern fairly for all Texans if elected.
A Milam County campaign piece urges voters to back Pat Neff in Saturdays Texas primary. It targets incumbent Thomason for presiding over duplicated services and calls for a governor who will turn the wheel. It touts Neff as a non entangled candidate with a record of performance and fresh blood for public affairs.
Observers predict Thomason will win a large share of votes across West Texas, carry many North Texas counties, and secure strong support in Southeast, Central, and East Texas. The Thomason Campaign Committee projects a decisive statewide victory.
