CRIME ON DECREASE
IN DEKALb COUNTY
Grand Jury Scores County
on Manner of Handling
Finances

Fort Payne. February 25.-(SpeciaD--I
the report of the grand jury for DeKalb
County which was in session here last
week they examined 100 witnesses and
found 20 indictments, which goes to prove
that crime is on the decrease in this
county.
The total revenue of the county in
round numbers is $4,000, and besides this
the county borrowed several thousand
dollars from private individuals, for
which there is no law. They also scored
the county for the manner not only of
handling the countys finances, but de-
ciared that the county was not getting
value received for the money expended
ON the working of the teams owned by
the county, and that they found upon
examination that there was the grossest
and most inexcusable waste in and about
the feed stables used by the county.
Upon examining the books of the
county superintendent of education they
found that they were neatly and correctly
kept and that there were n1nety-six
schools taught in the ninety-seven dis
tr.cts in the county and employing 127
teachers the average pay being $50 per
month and the average school term be-
ing six months.
This week will be consumed at the court
house by the criminal docAet. which will
be taken up by Judge Haralson. This
docket is an unusually light one.

Occasionally cough depends upon an

By c. Il. STEWART

Washington, Feb. 25.-(speciaD-Con-
hicting and unauthentic reports that
Fresident-elect Wilson and William j.
Bryan have met the parting of the ways,
and that Bryan will not enter the cabinet
because it is the purpose of Mr.. Wilson
to appoint certain cabinet members objec-
tionable to the Nebraskan, are stirring
the politicians in Washington into ami
mated speculation which promises to re-
main unsolved until the 4th of March.
1t is claimed that Mr.. Wilson has picked
a Secretary of the Treasury, or will
choose one from three names under con-
s!deration. either of whom is objection
able to Mr.. Bryan, because he considers
them too friendly to Wall street. 1t is
said, also, than the primary cause for
Mr.. Bryans determination not TO serve
in the Wilson cabinet. is, that he put
the one term idea squarely up to the
Iresident-elect and that Mr.. Wilson could

Situation in Mexico

The situation in Mexico, which is be-
lieved to be now one of the first problems
with which the Wilson administration
will have<to face. has brought into prom
inence his probable selections for the
places of Secretary of War and Secretary
of the Navy.
OF all the guesses made of Mr. Wilson s
cebinet the post of Secretary Of the Navy
has been most neglected. No person or
persons have been agreed upon by the
various cabinet makers and very few
mentioned for this important place and
very few for the portfolio of War. Mr.
McAdoo has been mentioned for the lat
ter post, but he is also mentioned for
the Treasuryship and one or two other
posts.
From present indications the two men
who accept these places will have plenty
to do in the next few months Tt is get
ting to be the general opinion and more
and more as an accepted fact, that the
United States will be compelled to inter-
vene in Mexico, however dstasteful it
may be, and that at an early date. 1t
may come at any moment as the situa-
tior in that country grows worse by the
hour.

One Term Resolution Is Assured

Whether or not there is any truth in
this part of the story, it is a fact that
from some reason entirely unexplained
the friends of the one-term resolution
" hich for a while seemed absolutely GER
tain of consideration at this session by
both houses suddenly ceased their activi-
ties, and the resolution sank from view
and from consideration with a sudden
ness quite remarkable, if not startling.
Two or three weeks ago the one term
idea was freely discussed by the demo-
cratic statesmen, and you could scarcely
hear anything else. Now if you mention
the one term matter to a democratic
leader he freezes up Ike cold storage
turnip and abruptly changes the conyer-
sation.
Those who take stock in the story that
Mr. Wilson and Mr.. Bryan have agreed to
disagree, believe also that the Commoner
is not pleased with the prospects of Mr..
Underwood remaining as the leader in
the house. He sees in this, it is said, no
prospect in placing the Bryan stamp and
seal on the tariff bills, and carrying
through in the extra session a far more
radical tariff programme than is proposed
by Mr.. Underwood. 1t is claimed that
Mr.. Bryan has felt OUT the situation
with the members of the new house and
on a count of noses finds that the I'm
derwood supporters are Iar in the lead,
and that he stands no chance of pack
