B Lewis of Harlingen, attorney
who has Just returned from Wash
ington.
Lewis is a member of the firm
of Greenwood and Lewis.
He represented the Oocdwin dis
trict in Hidalgo count
Success hinged on interpretation
of a point of law, on whether the
money paid in by property owners
to retire bonds ol the districts
could be termed a benefit assess
ment, or whether it is a tax. The
R. F. C. held tnat It Is a benefit
•aaessmer.t.
It Is understood that a number

{STERLING NAMES
ILUL? AL VOTERS
iUSTIN. Sept. 23. (A*>—Gov. R
S. Sterling had on file in Travis
County district court today a suit
contesting the Democratic nomin
ation of Mrs. Miriam A. Ferguson
for governor. He alleged that ap
proximately 55.000 persons had
L east i legal votes.
Mrs. Ferguson was certflled by
the party state convention at Lub
bock Sept. 13 as the nominee, her
majority in the Aug. 27 run-off
primary having been fixed at ap
proximately 4.000 votes
Gov Sterling filed a court con
test of Mrs. Ferguson’s nomination
the day the convention declared
her the nominee but his attorneys
yesterday had it dismissed r.nd de
cided to file a new suit Both
petitions were placed In the court
of Judge W. F. Robertson.
Includes Voters Names
Attached to the suit petition
were approximately 1.300 parses of
axhioi's. including the names of
the voters it was alleged cast il
I legal rallots.
The ruit contended that all votes
i east for Mrs. Ferguson were illegal,
* “in that she was ineligible to be
come a candidate of the Demovatic
* party at the general election and
* ineligible to the office of gov
I emnr"
The petition lcelled that Mrs.
, re rguacr was .neugible to hold the
» elf ice of governor because she was
the v.ft of James E Ferguson, a
boensed attorney, and entitled to a
jr share of his earnings under the
Icom.mvnity prop* rty law.
Ft teuton was impeacned by the
T.*xas senate and removed from the
office of governo in 1917 while
serving his second term. Mrs.
Ferguson served as governor for a
Single term in 1925-26.
tHie petition asserted that during
Mrs. Ferguson's administration
Ferguson became the attorney in
fact and agent of various large in
terests “thereby increasing the
community earnings of himself and
wife."
Charges Earnings
Sterling alleged in his petition
that eacn year of Mrs. Ferguson's
tenure her earnings were increas
ed to more than $20,000 above the
salary paid her by the state. These
earnings were described as ‘'com
pensation. rewards, lees, secured
by her lor the practicing of law
1 through her husoaud as her mari
tal partner and by the services
whlen he rendered to various in
terests and corporations.
It was contended that was in
violation of a provision of the slate
constitution winch prohibits the
governor irom practicing any pro
fession or receiving any reward,
lee or compensation.
The contest petition alleged that'
in certain counties Judges failed to
sign ballots; that ballots were not
numbered; that tax collectors fail
ed to furnish election officials with
certified poll tax lists; that Judges
suggested how voters should mark
their ballots and did not prepare
ballots as directed; that foreigners,
felons and negroes were allowed to
vote; persons were permitted to
vote without poll tax receipts who
were not exempted from procuring
such receipts; that votes were tab
ulated for Mrs. Ferguson that were
not cast for her.
'Illegal Conspiracy’
One allegation was that more
tiian three hundred persons in a
certain county obtained poll tax
receipts without paying for them
and their voles counted for Mrs.
Ferguson. It was alleged that in
this county there existed an il
legal conspiracy during January,
1931. which continued thereafter
* * * whereby the illegal poll tax
receipts were given to the respec
tive electors for the purpose of so
illegally influencing said electors to
vote tor Mrs. Miriam A. Ferguson'’
; and “that as a part of said scheme
and unlawful conspiracy the said
tax collectors dki issue i>oll tax re
ceipts in blank and deliver same
to other persons not a deputy tax
collector and for said other person
to thereby deliver said poll tax re
, ceipts to the electors and write the
: name of said elector therein and
m many instances accepted post
dated checks in payment therefor
which said checks were not paid
before Feb. 1, 1932, and in many
instances were never paid."
It was alleged that i Smith,
Rusk, and Gregg counties the vot
ing “was conducted in such flagrant
disregard and violation of the law
* • • as to m.“«e ft an utter impos
sibility to determine or ascertain
the validity of such election or
legality of the votes cast.”
