DALLAS HAS GOOD WATER
BIG ARTEslAN FLOW STRUCK NEAR
THE CITY.
Well Is Sending Out Water at the Rate
OF a Million and a Quarter Gallons
Per Day,

Dallas, Texas, July lo.A tremendous
flow OF pure artesian water was struck to-
day four miles west OF the city. The Dali
las Fuel and Oil company year ago com
menced boring for oil. Two wells caved
In at n depth OF about 1000 feet. A third
was bored and is now down 1900 feet. For
several days rumors of the striking of
big flow of arteslan water have been auoat.
Dallas Is more anxious TO get sufficient
and permanent water supply than she is
to strike OIL This afternoon committee
Of clizens, headed by city Commissioners
Sullivan and Hill and including bankers
merchants and professional men, went out
to inspect and TO investigate. They were
astonished at what they saw. Commits
sioner sullivan pronounced the well the
strongest artesian flow ever struck In this
county Through a two-inch pipe IL threw
n solid stream of water more than lOo
feet In the air. Through sx-inch pipe
1t flowed continuously full stream sew
ernl feet above the top. The dow was
timed by watches and showed to be l,2oO,-
600 gallons per day. DalliN has spent in
twenty years nearly 100000 for water
supply on a surface plant auu gotten very
unsatisfactory results Another bond issue
election is set for August 3. The people
are now agitating for an arteslan system
and may defeat the bond Issue If provisions
are not made to spend at least part OF
the money in sinking artesian wells.

Alabama Democrats Discard Convention

Montgomery, Ala, July 10.-After bit
ter fractional fight the democracy of Ala
bama, as represented in the democratic ex-
ecutlve committee Of the State, this after
noon cast aside the ancient custom of nom
mating state house officers by convention
and determined TO substitute in lieu a
democratic primary election. The South
Carolina plan is likely to be adopted and
will probably be reported tomorrow.
The overthrow Of the convention custom
is direct result of the operation Of the
States new constitution, That instrument
having eliminated the negro vote, the dem
0crats feel there is no Longer anw necessity
for pIlIng up tremendous mAJorities In the
negro counties and permitting those coun
ties to send to Montgomery delegations out
of all proportion to their white population
For this reason they adopted the primary
idea as means OF holding the vote OF
the counties down 10 their respective white
