HON. JAMES B. GRIGSBY,
Pres. American Mutual Benefit
Association, Houston, Texas
In response to the insistent and
repeated demands of so many re

(4) delegates 'from the state-at-large
to the Republican National
Convention, which meets in Chicago,
111., Tnnesday, June, 8, 1920, Hon.

the actions of the republican voters
of Texas in their piWnct, congres
sional and state conventions.

constitution, Its amendments and the
fundamental principles of our re
publican form of government.

fatlgably and untiringly for a new
wiiiihlimn leailnrahin in Texas that

al, true and tried republican elec

above pelf; party fidelity and loy
ulty above mean and niggardly self
ishness; Americanism above imper
ialism; political participation rather
than political eleniinaton.

McCarthy of Galveston as the two
white delegates from the state-at-large
to the national convention.
He favors and shall work for
an aggressive, progressive republi

and traditions of the "Grand Old
Party;" but sensing the imperative
needs and demands of the tin-es
and resolutely and courageously ap
plying ltseir to the problems of re-
constructon, readjustment and realignment.
He opposes proscription, either
legislative or customary, in our body
politic. He favors ami shall fight
hnrd to forever maintain the re

THE PEOPLE rather than the party
of a PEOPLE.- lie favors the re
publicans putting out a straight
