MONUMENT FOR HER0'S GRAVE
Feeling That Last Resting Place Of
Sam Houston Should Not Re-
main Unmarked.

In q quiet nook in the Huntsville
cemetery repose the remains Of Gen
Sam Houston, whose name will ever
be linked with the history Of Texas
because of his patriotic and able serv'
ice rendered the state both before and
after Texas became a state. 1t is
marked by a cheap marble slab bear
ing this simple inscription: Gen
Sam Houston. Born March 2, 1898,
died July 26, 1863"
The Thirtieth legislature, through
the. efforts of Senator Mcdonald
Meachum and Col. A. T. Mckinney,
senator and representative from that
district, made an appropriation OF
$4,000 to erect suitable monument
over Gen. Houston's grave, but unless
1t has been done very recently no con-
tract has been let for the work, the
relatives of Gen. Houston, it is said'
being unable to agree upon a suitable
design.
But what does a monument amount
to anyhow? I'VE live in deeds" not
In monuments. Gen. Houston needs
no monument to keep his memory
fresh in the minds and hearts Of Tex
ans. The most imposing monument
that could be erected at his grave
would crumble into dust before his
name and history are forgotten in
Texas. But the monument should be
there, not for Gen. Houston's sake,
but as an evidence Of our own appre-
citation and recognition Of patriotic
service.-Wills Point (Tex) Chron-

Italian Laborers IN Fond du Lac Lime

FOND DU LAC, Wis. Aug. 4
Especial Although their demands for
Il 15-cent increase in their pay were
not granted, practically all of the strik-
crs at MarbIehead have returned to
work.
The strike ended Tuesday afternoon,
when many Of the employees informed
the officers of the lime companies that
they were willing to go to work at the
old scale. The stringent measures taken
by the authorities to prevent further
outbreaks and the proposed bringing in
of new labor by the lime companies ire
given as the principal causes for settling
the strike.
w. a. Titus, secretary of the StaDd-
ard Lime and Stone company. received
notice that the Italian consul from Chi
cago was coming here to investigate the
strike and the riot, which occurred at
Knowles Monday.
Officers of the lime companies say
that they are willing to take back all Of
their former employees with the exccp-

TO FLUSH FOX RIVER
Drought in Valley May Cause Epidemic
of Disease Unless Winnebago Dam
Gates Are Opened.

APPLETON, Wis, Aug. 81 Spe-
cial. City Physician Ellsworth has an
nounced that unless heavy rains occur
in this vicinity before Thursday he will
make application to the government and
to the Neenah and Menasha Water Pow
er company to open the dam gates and
flush the Fox river, fearing that unless
this is done a disease epidemic might
occur in Appleton and other cities of the
Fox River valley The prolonged
drought has brought about q condition
very similar to that of a year ago when
the water in the lakes and river became
so polluted that thousands of fish were
killed and the stencil was 50 offensive
that people in cities along the river
could scarcely stand it. The source of
supply of the Appleton Water Works
company is the Fox river, and the
water now being pumped through the
pipes of that company is SO polluted
that it is not safe to use it even for
kitchen purposes. 1t is believed that if
the gates on the up-river dams are
opened for several hours daily the river
can be flushed and much of the filth and
pollution carried into Green bay. Many
of the cottagers along the summer re
sorts on the north shore of Lake Win
nebago have been obliged to return to
their city homes, being unable to stand
the stencil.
