the implied boast in this sarcastic all

the implied boast in this sarcastic all fusion to MT. Knox.
 But it should be remembered that he was the only one of the candidates who undertook to lead the people to be- | lieve that appropriations might be ob- tained from the United States govern
 ment to build our public highways, and this. together with the sympathy
 engendered by his then recent defeat
 for Congress by MT. Hobson. was gen erally regarded" as the most potent
 reasons for his success.
 I note that he is still advocating such appropriations. which to most
 people appears to be an 'iridescent dream" especially to those who know that the expenses of the government are already so enormous, the tariff rates to produce the necessary revenue
 are already so high and the tribute
 paid by the people to the protected trusts has increased the cost of liv- ing that it is impossible to conceive from what source or by what means the government could procure the un- told millions that would be necessary to build public roads, such as were graphically pictured by the senator in his canvass before the people in that primary to which he and MT. William B. Bankhead were so much opposed. It may be that the government may make some appropriations for expert ments in road building and all agree in the benefits resulting from good
 roads; but Alaba mas share in such experimental funds would be but small, and, judging the future by the past. the south would not receive from any such appropriations from the United
 States government one-tenth of what it would pay in tariff taxes to that end. Yours very truly,

DORA NOW HAS OWN
 WATERWORKS MUDDLE

Dora, March 1O.-6pecial)-The city fathers are in dispute with John Jack son, who leased the waterworks from Mayor Rich Andrews and Dr. A. B. Phillips, William Tanner. Dolph McCarn and John Brown, the board of alder men. The lease took effect January l. For about month the water was sup piled irregularly, when finally it ceased altogether. Jackson locked up the en- zine house and this evening Officer w. L. Head, together with the board of al- dermen, broke into the engine house. and immediately Jackson secured new locks and locked the building again.
 It seems from the best information that Jackson claims the city of Dora must repair the machinery for him to keep water for fire protection and consumers, and the city officials claim Jackson was to give an ssOoO bond, which they say he has not done,
 It Is likely to get into the courts. Jack son has secured the services of Bankhead & Bankhead of Jasper.

 A heavy rain fell here in the early hours of the morning and was followed by showers during the entire day. The precipitation was so heavy that the street work now under way had to be aban- doned. At o'clock this morning heavy black cloud came out of the southwest and caused a darkness that made it inn possible to see without the use of arti- though a tornado was approaching, and the timid ones were more or less fright ened However, there was nothing de- veloped beyond an electric display and a copious fall of water.

SHEFFIELD ON MAIN LINE
Council Grants Southern Railway Right
 of Way for Double Track

Sheffield, March 10.-(Special.)-A secret session of the Sheffield city council was held Monday evening, and the Southern railway was granted right-of-way for double track through the city. The run ming of the Southern through Sheffield was discussed some time ago. and owing to opposition from Tuscumbia 1t was abandoned. For this reason the matter was kept secret until plans were ma tured, and the fact that the right-of-way had been granted the Southern by the Sheffield council did not become public until today.
 The Northern Alabama, owned by the Southern, already has track from the Sheffield depot connecting with the South enr main line. three miles south, and this will be made a part of the main line. It Is said the work on the new route will begin at an early date.
