PAYS RESPECTS TO OTHERS Says People Should Choose Executive for Other Reasons Than Pro or Anti. Spacial Dispatch. Yoakum, Tex., May General B. V. Davidson spoke here yes terday. He was introduced by W. F. Adams in a brief address. The first part of his speech was taken up with a brief history of the speaker’s life, the causes that brought him into poli tics and his career since entering poli ties. -He referred to the fact that he was a citizen of south Texas while his three opponents were from north and northwest Texas, but that he did not appeal to the voters of this section to vote for him because he lived iu this section of the state. In speaking on the prohibition ques tion he dwelt at considerable length. He said: “Of the four candidates in the field for governor, there are but two with consistant records on this question Judge Poindexter is a pro, was a pro in 1887. I am an anti. I was an anti >n 1887. In 1887 Johnson was an anti. At the same time Colquitt, was a pro. I don't believe in state-wide prohibi tion as the best way to deal with the liquor question. And I don’t change mv mind every time the moon changes or I want to run for office.’’ Davidson advised the people to be temperate with each other in discuss ing the question. He said: “There is no use for one side to call the other ‘liquoritc’ or crazy. Every man is en titled to his opinion. For that very reason I am an auti. I favor permit ting the people of each section to de cide for themselves what they want. The speaker stated that the vote of south Texas as compared with the vote of the state, was mighty small. Within 100 miles of Dallas is half the popula tion of Texas. “ We are not in it when it conies to voting. If we stand in rebellion against the platfotm of the democratic party we will be overwhelmed with prohibi tion by the voters of other sections of the state.’' -..»>• -»!» ♦’ The general said that he was not only an anti as to liquor, but was an anti on dozens of things.

You should not choose a man for governor because he is a pro or an auti. He should have something else to recommend him. If I am gov ernor I shall be fair to all. If we ask for railroad regulation, Johnson will give us prohibition. If we want the law about irrigating our vast western empire, Poindexter will give us three mile drops. If we want the law in the interest of labor, Mr. Colquitt will say. ‘ We will pass the appropriation bill and go home. We must have rest. ’ Col quitt is hoggish enough to want to feed the public officials and then go home. No relief for any one else. I have friends all over Texas.
