CONDEMNATION PROCEEDINGS
PROPER.

The proper course as it now appears
Is for the city to institute condemna-
ton proceedings to acquire the water
rights which it needs in the Cotton
wood district BY that means II can
acquire the water at a fair and reas-
enable price and avoid the holdup
which was planned by the administra-
ton for the benefit of the Cottonwood
water owners and to the detriment OF
the city. The city needs the water
and the citizens are willing to pay
for it, but they don't want to pay and
get nothing in return.

serted that every shred of legislation now on the statute books regarding tho control of railroads came from Repub-' licans and Republican bodies. lie charged that the Democrats on one ocs casion had two years in which to amend the law, but that no recommendation of any kind was made by their com mittee on Interstate Commerce..
 Mir. Littlefield (Me.) said Congress must do one of two things-reduce ap- propriations or increase the revenues. He would be glad, he added to follow any reasonable suggestion of the Com mittee on Appropriations and called at- tention to the fact that a decrease in appropriations must be very much larger than at present indicated by ths bills reported. If there were to be funds In the treasury to meet them. Mr.-L.it- tIef1eld, addressing himself to the House generally. said he disIiked to increase revenue because it increased taxation, and said he wanted to be told why 1t was desirable to decrease appEopria- tions. No reply, however. was forth- coming.
 Laughter and applause followed . criticism by Mir. Lind (Minn.) of an item of $14,000 in the District of Colum- bia appropriation bill. which he said was in connection with the care of forty horses, when he expressed surprise that there was no provision for horse stenographer.
 Consideration of the bill had not been concluded when 1t was laid aside and the House concurred in the Senate amendment to the omnibus claims bill and sent it to conference.

SHERIFF MAY GONE
HAS DISAPPEARED FROM HIS
 HOME IN LUvERNE.
Rumor Reaches the Crenshaw Capital That May Went to New Or leuns and Sailed for
 South America.

Luverne, Jan. 23.-(Special 1.-The disappearance of Sheriff S. D. May of Crenshaw County, from his home here, and his continued absence has caused something of a sensation in this coun- ty, although his friends point out that 1t is nothing unusual for MT. May to leave the county for some time with out informing his family and hIs friends of his whereabouts.
 Sheriff May left Luverne on January 13 in his buggy. He drove through the country to Troy. where 1t has been since learned that he sold the horse and buggy, Since he left Troy nothing has been heard from him. It Is re- ported here that he sailed from New Orleans several days ago for South America. although this report Is vague and indefinite.
 By direction of the Board of County Commissioners, Probate Judge F. M. T. Tankersley on Saturday reported to Governor Cunningham the absence of the Sheriff, asked his advice about cer- tifying that the Sheriff's office was va cant and requested that an Examiner be sent to Luverne to investigate the &C., counts of Mir. May.
 The Probate Judge was advised that Governor Cunningham was then absent
 
 Department could not give legal ad- vice in the premises. It was suggest ed, however by the Governors office, that the Probate Judge wait reason able length of time before declaring the office vacant and that the Governor would probably send an Examiner to Luyerne soon to report on the accounts of the Sheriff.
 Probate Judge Tankersley says he does not yet feel warranted in certify ing that the office is vacant as 1t is nothing unusual for Mir. May to be ab- sent from the county. two weeks with out notice.
 The Sheriffs office Is in charge of Deputy Sheriffs Charles May and W. L. Tatum. The formerIs a son of the Sheriff. They declare they know noth- ing of the whereabouts of the Sheriff.
 It is reported that Sheriff May Is due considerable money and 1t Is known that he owes many personal debts in the county He Is bonded to the State by the Fidelity and Deposit Company of Maryland and it Is believed that the bonding company has been already ad vised of his absence from his office.
 Mir. May Is 45 years old. His wife and three children live in Luverne. When he was elected Sheriff in 1900 he removed with his family to Luverne from Brad1eyton, where he had failed in the mercantile business He never held any other public office in this county
 The absent Sheriff is a brother of J. T. May of Montgomery and Is we'll known in the Capital City, where he often visited.

DECLINES TO ADJOURN
HOUSE REFUSES TO PASS RESOLU-
 TION OF SYMPATHY.
Mir. Baker of New York sought to Have the American Congress Show Respect to Russian
 Strikers.

Washington, Jan. 23.-The session of the House today was devoted en- | tirely to consideration of bills relating to the District of Columbia. There was an echo of disturbances in St. Petersburg yesterday when Mir. Baker of New York moved that an adjourn ment be taken out of respect to those who were killed in the clash with the Russian troops. The only affirmative vote was recorded by MT. Baker him. self.
 A little later the proceedings were interrupted by Mr. Pearre of Mary land being seized with a nervous con- vulsion, necessitating a brief recess. ale soon rallied and was conveyed to his home.
 The proposition to control the rail- roads in the matter of rates was dis cussed at length by Mir. Burgess of Texas and briefly by Mir. Hepburn of Iowa
 Under latitude of general debate, Mir. Burges CTexas) discussed at length the question of rates charged by the rail roads. He compared the utterances of President Roosevelt in his message to the Fifty-seventh and Fifty eighth Congresses on the subject, and said that 1t was a notable fact that not until after the election did President Roose-
 
 clearly for legislation which would meet the present conditions of affairs.
 The President in that message, he said, had with ability and marked clear ness discussed the duty of the govern ment and pointed out that the Presi- dents position admitted of no sort of question. Summing his remarks Mir. Burgess said that an opportunity was not presented for members of the aY.tu sasr1 rnt ffV. legislation which will restrict the rail- roads. The matter, he said, resolved itself into the question Are you with Roosevelt, or are you with the rafl- roads"
 He was loudly applauded when he pledged the President the support of the Democrats in the effort to restrict the railroads.
 Criticizing the House for its refusal to adjourn in respect to the memory of the persons killed in St. Petersburg yesterday, Mr. Baker (N. Y.) said he could not conceive how the House could be indifferent to such Q condition of affairs He house, he said, had de- voted the day to the little paltry, petty district squabbles in the city of Washington" while 1t had ignored what he termed the Russian horror, "a crime so unprOvoked, so wanton and so shameless and cruel that the whole civilized world stands aghast." He hoped the House would take immediate opportunity to put itself on record "as expressing it's horror and the horror of the American people at the fearful out rage"
 Mir. Hepburn Uowa) took issue with Mir Burgess regarding a portion of his remarks on railroad control. He first congratulated Mir. Burgess for pledging Democratic support to such a measure but said that all through MT. Burgess's remarks there has been an attempt to make a partisan question out of 1t. MT. Hepburn vigorously as-

 Miss Belle Bloodworth, the young lady who was so foully murdered at Decatur last Saturday night, was born and reared in Dadeville and had many friends here. She was an estimable young woman.
 Although the election for city of ficers for Dadeville comes off in March. there is not yet single announced candidate for any of the offices. and it seems now that the election will be a very tame affair.

Paul Gray. a very widely-k known gentleman of this city, and until re- gently very successful merchant. was the victom of serious accident yester- day afternoon. Mir Gray with some friends was on an outgoing train and when it was under full headway he walked from the rear platform and was precipitated to the track, suffering most serious injuries. It is possible that the injuries will prove fatal, for the train was moving rapidly. MT. Gray, who was in the drygoods busi- ness, was recently adjudged bankrupt in the United States Court here, and as he had always applied himself to busi- ness strictly. it is thought that this preyed considerably on his mind. He was brought back, to the city and is now under treatment.
