TEXAS WONDERS
IF FERGUSONS
WILL RUN AGAIN
‘Farmer Jim' and ■ Ma’ Have
Backers Who Want Them
for Governor.
BY GORDON K. SHEARER
Inlled Press Staff torrupondfnt
AUSTIN. Tex.. Jan. 17 —All over
the 266.000 square miles of Texas,
people are wondering if "Ma" Fer
guson is going to enter the Gov
ernor's mansion for the third time.
It would be but another turn in
the remarkable career of the two
Governors, Miriam A. and James E.
Ferguson, who have alternated be
tween the zenith and the nadir of
fortune's wheel.
In 1914 a rugged, smooth shaven.
200-pound man of 47. risen from day
laborer to banker, startled the poli
ticians of Texas by suddenly an
nouncing that he was going to run
lor Governor.

t poring to limit the amount of the
crops that landowners could clain
I from tenant farmers, Ferguson was
swept into the governorship.
After being hostess at the "man
sion” for nearly three years, Mrs.
Ferguson left it in October, 1917,
with her husband, who had been
impeached and sentenced never
again to “hold office of honor, trust
or profit” in Texas.
Then came the Ku-Klux Klan
Ferguson became its vitriolic attack
er. He could not run for office.
Mrs Ferguson said she would. On
the twin planks of opposition to the
Klan and vindication they again
had fortune's favor.
Pardoned Husband
She pardoned her husband. The
legislature passed an amnesty act
restoring his political rights.
Atiorney-General Dan Moody be- |
gan a probe of highway activities.
Huge contracts had been let. He
demanded tneir cancellation and re- I
turn of approximately $1,000,000 to
the state, in a series of suits. Win
ning a $600,000 suit Moody an- i
nounced for Governor.
In the second primary Moody won
and in January, 13*17, “Ma Fergu
son” left the mansion the second
time.
Amnesty Act Repealed
The amnesty act. that had re- j
stored Ferguson’s rights was re-
pealed. Opponents claim the ara
i nesty never was constitutional and
j that'“Ma” Ferguson could not legal
j ly pardon him.
Ferguson supporters say the par
don was valid. They assert also
! that once having taken effect, the
I amnesty act restored his rights re
gardless of the pardon. Once re
stored, they say, repeal of the act
could not deprive him of the right
to hold office.
Because of this dispute some think
”Ma” will again be the candidate,
! not “Pa.”
In either event, a Ferguson victory
will take her into the “mansion” for
j the third time.
READY FOR QUOTA FIGHT
• /?;' Srrions-ll'if'ird Sf.icspnner Alliance
■WASHINGTON. Jan. 17.—Senator
David A. Reed of Pennsylvania, au
thor of the national origins immi
gration law, is prepared to lead a
fight against the proposals of Albert
Johnson of Washington and John
Box of Texas to extend the quota
‘ system to North and South Amer
ican countries.
The legislation is intended to halt
unrestricted immigration from
Mexico. The existing law places i
no restrictions on Mexico or any
other western hemisphere nation.
Labor Secretary Davis and other
immigration students long have ad
vocated the quota system for Mexico.
