EAST TEXAS HISTORICAL ASSOCIAnON 3 GOVERNOR MIRIAM A. FERGUSON by Ralph W. Steen January 20, 1925 was a beautiful day in Austin, Texas, and thousands of people converged on the city to pay tribute to the first woman to serve the state as governor. Long before time for the inaugural ceremony to begin every space in the gallery of the House of Representatives was taken and thousands who could not gain admission blocked hanways and stood outside the capitol. After brief opening ceremonies, Chief Justice C.M. Cureton administered the oath of office to Lieutenant Governor Barry Miller and then to Governor Miriam A. Ferguson. Pat M. Neff, the retiring governor, introduced Mrs. Ferguson to the audience and she delivered a brief inaugural address. The governor called for heart in government, proclaimed political equality for women, and asked for the good will and the prayers of the women of Texas.

The Redeemers
CHAPTER I THE REDEEMERS y honest genealogy of the ruling family of Southern Demo• crats would reveal a strain of mixed blood. The mixture A sprang from a forced union with the house that had been Democracy's bitter rival for the throne. A Mississippian once whimsically acknowledged this union. "A few years after the war," he wrote, "all lovers of good government in the South concluded to celebrate a marriage. The high contracting parties were Whiggism and Democracy and the ceremony took place in 1875, though the betrothal may antedate that time .... As is usual in such cases the parties have now one and the same name, but the Whig party is no more dead than is one of our fair damsels, because she has concluded to cast her lot with the man of her choice for weal or for woe." 1 The fact was that instead of assuming the submissive role sug• gested by a change of name, Whiggery often took the dominant position-along with the bulk of desirable offices. A North Caro• lina editor who described himself as one of the "unterrified Democ• racy" boasted that "the Democratic nominees for Governor since the war had been Worth, a Whig; Ashe, a Whig; Merrimon, a Whig; Vance, a Whig; and Jarvis, who was too young before the War to have had much political leaning one way or another." The Democrats of the First North Carolina District had in that period nominated five men for Congress, "every one of them former Whigs," and the state supreme court was "composed of three ster• ling Democrats, all former Whigs." By 1884 it appeared that "the Democrats of today admire Henry Clay just as much as the men of 1Ja ckson Clarion, September 19, 1883.
