Only desultory applause greeted the
reepated declarations by administra-
tons by administration champions
that the party is willing and glad to
back up the president
Replying to Republican attacks on
the president, the Democrats assert
ed that the only purpose of the reso :
luton was to discredit the president
for petty political purposes" The
administration adherents made no ef-
fort to refute the contention of the
majority that the whole country is de-
nAnd'fng peace, .+but were content TO
rest their case on arguments against
the constitutionality OF the resolu-
ton.
Representative Pod, of North
Carolina. probably drew the greatest
applause from the Democratic side by
a vigorous attack on the Republicans
coupled with an impassioned defense
OF the president He said.
This peace resolution In nothing
more than a damnable plot to dis
credit President Wilson. 1t will bring
the damnation of history upon you
Republicans and the damnation OF the
country is near at hand. The Re-
publican party believes the president
must be discredited In the eyes Of tho

has had shipment en- route from
the mills in New York state since
early in January. Today a message
from Galveston brings the encurag-

poets to turn it over to the Gluf

the early part of next week The
Herald expects to have paper on
hand to meet all conditions for at
least a year.
The Herald against requests ad-
vertisers and readers to bear with
it just a few days longer, after
which time the paper expects to
return to its normal size. and will
thus be able to carry its usual
amount of reading matter give bet
ter position to advertising. AL
though the columns Of The Herald
have been badly crowded, there
still has been a considerable amount
of advertising left out due to the

AMBITIOUS YOUTHS
COODRISKS, HESAYS
Those Wishing Education at
Whatever Cost Are Best
Financial Risks

DALLAS, Texas, March 3.-Ambi-
tious young men, anxious 10 acquire
an edl = ZION at whatever cost in hard
ship ana sacrifice, are the hest finan-
cial risk in Texas, according to DR.,
w. b. Bizzell, president Of A. & NJ.
College, in an address here. He said
that Of between $4,000 and $50, 900
loaned each year to A. & NJ. students
ION their bare notes" by men inter
ested in educational affairs mot a
nickel" had been lost.
Dr. Bizzell urged Texas business
men to interest themselves in prob
lens of educational institutions, be-
cause the states educational system
constitutes an enterprise Of greater
magnitude than all the railroads and
other corporations combined"
I'VE have a critical situation re-
garding teachers" Dr. Bizzell contin-
ued. "Since last June 244 teachers
out Of $50 have left our "a. &M.D
staff. and in almost every instance
have gone where they receive mere
money. If you want a man in your
business you pay what is required to
get him, A maximum price il fixed
by law for most Of our positions. We
can not pay more. Ii Is going to be
absolutely necessary TO pay more
money for teachers if the educational
system Of the state is 10 be kept up to
its present efficiency"

LAME BACKS, SORE
MUSCLES, SHOW UP
Order of Day Changed From
Batting Practice to Long
Walks; Players Hike

Lame backs ana sore muscles were
in abundance at the Cardinal training
quarters this morning, so Manager
Branch Hickey changed the order Of
the day from batting practice at Fort
Brown to long walk to the country.
The players hiked out beyond the
country club and back in time for
lunch. Dust and high winds are
hampering the practice today, but the
players this afternoon donned their
uniforms and went 10 the West
Brownsville diamond for practice
The practice so far has consisted
Of warming up the pitchers, under the
practiced direction Of Joe Sugden,
veteran catcher. whose job il is to in
struct the mound artists in practice
in batting and base running. All of
the worl. is being done under the very
close observance of Manager Hickey.
NJ. Hickey is keeping an especially
watchful eye on the performances Of
his many recruits TO see whether or
not they are living up 10 minor league
performances or whether they have
the talent which, upon development,
viii make them major league per-
formers.
Afternoon practice starts at 2
o'clock and lasts until nearly 4. IL is
public and many fans are attending
