The Big Bend Sentinel, Thurs. May 12,1960, Marfa, Texas
Saturday precinct conventions were held in
all seven precincts of Presidio County, or were
supposed to be held. And. how many of us attended?
At precinct one there were four persons In
attendance. In precinct nine there were
three persons ready to tallow the straight and
narrow laid down by political protocol.
Is this representation? We say NO.
Only at the precinct, convention, can Mr.
John Q. Public voice his opinion on the next
nominee of his party at the national convention.
Yet. It takes a ton of bricks to emphasize on
that individual that he docs have a voice in his
party's nominee.
When November rolls around the Individual voter may be thoroughly disgusted with the
Choice of his party. But. will he cross party
lines to vote for the opposition candidate rather
ih&ii vote for the candidate of his own party?
It has been done.
Are we Americans losing our drive, our initiative? Are we reluctant to go against the
•trend?" Are we accepting the dictates ot a
few as the voice of the majority? Are we complacent enough and disinterested enuogh to
"let George do It?"
Just as surely as the Lord made little apples, are we headed straight and true, down the
road to a regimented socialism. America Is closer to Socialism today than Soviet Russia was
In 1919.
.
Until we the people wake up and realize
what is being done, not only In Washington,,
but down to the local level, can we expect our
democratic form of government to survive.
Crying wolf? We sure are. We're crying
that the God-given rights of every free-born
American are being usurped at such a rapid
pace that only a strong voice from the wilderness will stem the all-consuming tide.
. We're not arguing with the decision of Ihe
less than a handful of voters at precinct conventions last Saturday, It was their day. But, we
arc arguing the case of the apathetic Individual who figured that all would go as he had expected, or wanted, and "what's the use of wasting time to attend a stupid meeting like that?"
True, we've all got lots ot things to do.
We've got to mow the lawn, get the weekend
groceries, stop by the cleaner," fix the barbecue
pit. watch the weekend ball game. We Just can't
seem to find Just a couple of hours once every
four years to set the house In order. Yet, we'll
spend the next four years griping about the
present administration, that we helped to elect
by staying away from a precinct convention.
OK. Just go ahead and butter your bread,
but Just remember, when there isn't enough
butter to go around, you killed the cow that
provided the cream.
It Is unfortunate that the situation has finally reached a court action. Something, surely,
could have been' done somewhere down the
line, to avert this unfavorable publicity to the
school district and the county.
We have always been of the firm belief
thsi 2-—It* had the common *en*^ t
thp(r
differences in a way other than a fight However, man being what he is, can be expected to
continue fighting as long as there Is a breath ot
life left In this battered old world.
Both factions, plaintiffs and defendants,
will now Slave their day In court and many
long hours of valuable time, time that could be
spent to more advantageous use, will be wasted
hearing a case that should never be on the 83rd
Judicial District docket.
We have been only a small voice In the
wildness, fighting to avert court action, hoping
that stubborness, on the part of both factions,
would be overcome and that reason would in
some measure, prevail. But, the editor is a fool.
He's been misguided by one side or the other In
this idiotic controversy.
Be that as it mav. the editor Is expected to
step In where angels fear to tread. One thing

A real good story, made better
Ijy the telling by Mary Martha
Gearhart, Is the chain of fateful
events v.'hich over took her recently.
.;.
It all started out on the ranch
when Mary Martha got up In the
middle of the night to turn off a
leaky faucet without turning on
a light and broke her toe. She
said she and thc kids had had a
liectlc day and she was trying to
leeep from disturbing anyone since they were all badly in need of
sleep;
Her good intentions were ot no
avail thougn as the pain increased so did her vocal recreminations and soon thc entire household was bustling "with good Intentions and activity, while Ben
set the bone and taped it to her
big toe.
Een left thc next morning for
their ranch in Montana, and a
thing which took on a more serious aspect, a severe infection, hit
him and he was hospitalized in
Billing for four days. However,
he Is up and about and Is expected to fly in sime time Wednc-sday.
The hex continued when Mary
Martha and Georgia Lee Kahl
left last week to attend a Presbyterian meeting in San Angelo.
They had arrived in good order
and were approaching the church
where the meeting was to be
held, when Georgia Lee said she
thought she smelled smoke, and
Mary Martha answered that she
thought all cities had that sort
of unpleasant odor and drove
calmly on.
As thc church was approached,
the car burst into smoke and
havoc broke loose. The two scrambled from thc station wagon and
began to lug suit cases and hat
boxes from the threatened vehicle and piled them unceremoniously on the church lawn. By that
time, Mary' Martha said sirens
were wailing and they were engulfed with policemen and firemen who came in U> their aid and

It anyone Is looking around for an individual on w h o m honors
and recognition Is to be heaped, George Roman gets bur vote by a
greater margin than his pole vault record. A s a n ambassador who has
put Marfa on the athletic map and given this city untold publicity,
and his career is just starting, Roman should certainly come In for
the bows. Closing out his high school career i n a blaze of glory, Roman Is Just beginning. S u l Ross 1ms gained a fine, competitive athlete and a good scholar.
Three other Marfans are trying out for college scholarships this
week, Frank Gonzales, Benny Salcido and Manuel Martinez. T h e
trio has been going through the paces on the baseball diamond at S u l
Ross. However, it is quite possible that this group w i l l go to St.
Mary's i n San Antonio, where they w i l l play basketball and probably
rome baseball.

Twenty men to lick an invading force of three warships! But Captain Isaac VT.
Burton's men were Texas Rangers. It w»s 1833. His little company had a good long
stretch of beach to patrol, the Texas Gulf cmst. Orders weie to look out for Mexicans

"We can't iwim. so we'll make 'em come after u»!" History doesn't detail the enticement used.. pethaps a Mexican flag or a petticoat.. but a boat promptly came
ashore. Just as promptly captured, the rowerj were forced to take Captain Burton
snd s dcun R*«"*"« out lo ihe ship. Very seen, with Captain Ike in command, the
ship was headed for Velasco, at the mouth of the Braios. But contrary winds delayed
her. Not ill winds ..for while she was hove to, two other Mexican ships .showed up.
The Ranger Captain, with the unwilling assistance of the Mexican skipper, decoyed
rheir officers aboard his prile ship. When the winds eased a bit the entire prize
flotilla eased up to Velasco landing to deliver about »25.000 worth of arms and
supplies to the Texas Army. Thereat ter, much to their embarrassment and chagrin.
Captain Isaac W. Burton and his sea-going Rangers were known fronder-wide as

WHEN YOU ESY FOR
THE BEST... BE SURE
YOU GET FT!
You can look at lettuce and tell which is
the fresher, crisper head. The price
is the same so naturally you choose the
best. The very same difference exists
' in miiki You can't see this difference
but it's there... in the taste, in the
freshness, in all the extra steps taken
to assure quality. The price is the
same so choose the milk you know
is best just as you choose the best
head of lettuce. Your choice will
be Borden's. The name Borden's
is synonymous with quality.
It Has been for over .
100 vears. So, when you
pay for the best be sure
you gel.it. Buy Borden's.
