 Jim Wells county next door.




http://www.co.duval.tx.us/default.aspx?name=Election











https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Wells_County,_Texas
Jim Wells County is a county in the U.S. state of Texas. As of the 2010 census, the population was 40,838.[1] Its county seat is Alice.[2] The county was founded in 1911[3]
75.71% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race.
Alice originated from the defunct community of Collins, three miles to the east. Around 1880 the San Antonio and Aransas Pass Railway attempted to build a line through Collins, which then had about 2,000 inhabitants. The townspeople were not amenable to selling their land to the railroad company; consequently, the railroad site was moved three miles west, and in 1883 a depot called Bandana was established at its junction with the Corpus Christi, San Diego and Rio Grande Railway. Bandana soon became a thriving cattle-shipping point, and application for a post office was made under the name Kleberg in honor of Robert Justus Kleberg. The petition was denied because a town named Kleberg already appeared on the post office list, so residents then chose the name Alice, in honor of Alice Gertrudis King Kleberg, Kleberg's wife and the daughter of Richard King. 


Robert Justus Kleberg, Jr. (December 5, 1853 – October 10, 1932)[1] was born to Rose and Robert J. Kleberg[2] in Texas[1] and attended the University of Virginia.[1] He served as legal counsel to Richard King and his 600,000-acre (2,400 km2) King Ranch. When King died, Kleberg took over the management of the ranch in 1885.[2] Under his tenure the ranch grew to encompass over 1,300,000 acres (5,300 km2).[1] He also encouraged the B. F. Yoakum company of St. Louis to build a railroad in South Texas.[3] Eventually oil was discovered under much of this cattle country. His son Richard M. Kleberg had recently been elected to the U.S. House of Representatives (in 1931), which was mentioned in Time magazine issue of 17 October 1932 which reported the elder Kleberg's death.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 30, 2010
Speaking of All-Time Great Election Frauds!
Archer Parr, (1860-1942) established himself as the “boss” of Duval County, Texas. Archer eventually passed his political kingdom on to his son, George B. Parr. Together, they became known as the “Dukes of Duval.”

The elder Duke (Archer) was elected county commissioner and rose in the ranks of the Democratic Party after a prominent tax collector met a shotgun blast. The poor fellow had unwisely chosen to eat lunch, in the middle of the day, in a public restaurant. With a power vacuum to exploit, Parr immediately undertook the business of bribing voters, inflating voting turnout statistics and, if necessary, creating voters and votes. In 1914, he won a seat in the state Senate, but soon found himself under the eye of investigators. Parr was re-elected in 1918 when Duval County provided him with thirteen hundred votes and a one hundred and eighteen vote victory. The sheer closeness of the race was stressful in itself, but the cynics were overly occupied by the seemingly trivial fact that Duval County had less than a thousand eligible voters.

Young George, or “B,” as his family called him) attended several colleges before graduating and moved on to the University of Texas Law School. He wound up passing the state bar exam without a degree. After spending some time driving his father around and selling real estate, George landed a position as Duvall County judge in 1926 (replacing his own brother). The new position appeared to make him the logical successor of Archer. But life soon got complex for “B.”


In late 1931, a federal investigator visited George and asked questions about some cancelled checks. George’s response (if he is to be believed) was to simply blurt, “I don’t give a goddamn who you are or where you are from, you don’t interest me. I am busy right now.” On March 9, 1932, a federal grand jury (with a little more time for the investigator) indicted George for income tax evasion. The honorable judge found himself accused of having failed to report $25,000 that he had received from a highway contractor and $17,000 from other sources. After more than a few delays, he plead “guilty” on May 21, 1934, and, on May 23, was sentenced to two years in prison. Judge R.J. McMillan also hit Parr with a $5,000. Under the plea agreement, however, the two-year sentence was “suspended.” So, George would simply have to pay the fine and remain under supervised probation.

Judge McMillan warned Parr to “stay out of politics” and “behave” himself but, on June 3, 1936, Parr’s probation was revoked. He was a mere eight days from the end of the assigned two-year period when a U.S. Attorney accused him of physically assaulting a State Representative, committing fraud in an oil and gas lease, having ownership in a company that distributed alcohol illegally, accepting illegal payoffs from gamblers and failing to report to his probation officer. It was not stated whether all of these things were discovered at once, or some sort of breaking point had finally been reached. On July 19, Parr was sent to a reformatory in El Reno, Oklahoma where he stayed until May 6, 1937. He was then paroled and, finally, discharged on January 9, 1938.
