Court Denies Writ for Additional Election Officials
Judge S. G. Tayloe sustained a demurrer and ruled the county judge and commissioners lack power to appoint extra election judges or clerks. The Terrell election law fixes numbers and assigns clerks to presiding judges, not a party chair or county court. The decision comes as Republicans seek to alter election official staffing before a forthcoming vote.

The speaker warns that under current law valuations can be raised and a $1 per $100 rate may become confiscatory. He cites Live Oak county where school taxes rose from 9.80 to 140.18, while total taxes reached 161.50, arguing land loans would vanish if districts gain full taxing power.
