The republicans had two objects in view; first, to commit the farmers of tue democratic south to protective theory; and second, to make the farmers believe that but for demo- cratic opposition, the republicans would have conferred on them a boon of in- finite material benefits.

FORCE AT WILSON
 DAM IS DECREASED
One Shift Is Laid Off and An
 other Batch to Be Dropped In a Short Time

Tuscumbia, February 1e.-(SpecialD
 Photographic instructions were received from General Beach, chief of engineers
 of the United States army. by Col. w. IJ. Barden, commanding officer at Will son dam, to lay off one shift of the workmen at the dam. and that in q very short time an additional layoff of one-third of those remaining would be made. This will affect somathins hike 1000 men.
 This action is taken, it is said from the fact that even with the authoriza = tion of $1o,o00.000 for the dam, the money would not be available before ; the first of next July, and those in lcharge wish to maintain the organiza- tion and carry on the work until that
 time The funds in hand are not suf-
 ficient to carry on the work at the
 dam at the same rate as in the past,
 therefore this reduction Is necessary. 1 While the prospects for the appro- lpriation for the Wilson dam are bright. yet there is a. likelihood of Congress
 turning it. down purely on sectional
 and political grounds. The people of this section. still have hopes that Con> lgress will act fayorably upon the hill Iappropriating the money for this work .

Sam Houston was the peer of them all.
Perhaps he inherited his fortltld2
from his father, who was a soldier
in the Revolution; perhaps during his
long stay among the Cherokee lndi.
ans he learned that warrior bears
pain without ilinching.
Houston was a Nirginian who had
entered the army and risen to the rank
of ensign at the outbreak Of the Creek
war in 1918. Gen. Andrew Jackson,
"Old Hickory" had taken the field
against the Creeks and, after series
OF battles in which tie Indians were
defeated, they made last stand ut
their fortified encampment, Tohopella,
in the Great Horseshoe bend of the
Tallapoosa river, Ala.
During the assault on this fort. a
harbcd arrow struck Houston in the
thigh. He tried to pull it ont, but
failed. The agony was frightful.
Calling to q soldier, Houston com
manded him to extract the shaft.
Twice the man tried and failed, then
begged to be relieved of the task when
he saw the unspeaAablc torture he
was causing
Try again commanded Houston.
"And if you fail, I'll run you through
with my sword!"
The third attempt was successful.
and as the barbed shaft was torn
from the flesh, it was followed by a
Eush of blood. General Jackson, see
ing HoUstons wound, ordered him to
the rear. The young ensign waited
until Jackson had passed on, had a
surgeon mind up the wound, and in a
few minutes he was back in the thick
Of the fighting.
The high peak in HoUst0p'S adNen-
turous life came in 1886 when, ut the
head Of little army of 500 Texans,
with the battle cry Of Remember the
Alamo" on their lips. he defeated the
hordes Of Santa Anna, the Mexican
dictator, at San Jacinto, and won free
dom for Texas. lie was elected FIRST
president of the Lone Star republic.
At the outbreak OF the Civil war,
Houston, who was governor of Texas,
was bitterly opposed to the secession
OF that state from the Union. The
Confederates forced him 10 resign.
They required Nil men oyer sixteen 10

travelling. Houston refused TO do
either. Once they stopped him and

using only small quantity OF the
crystal like rock in the process.
He said it required an almost white
heat to cause the metal to flow
from the pores of the formation.
A man by the name Of Phillips,
said to be representing himself to
be a miner Of wide experience, is in
the neighborhood and assisting in
the prospecting. He is said to have
stated that he knows the metal to
DO pure silver and that really rich
find has been encountered in that
|secton. He has been in the neigh
bcrhood several weeks and Is said
to have come there from some west
ern mining region. Just how much
he knows about the subject of min
ing, or just what ability no has in
metallurgy no one seems to
know. He claims to know what he
is talking about in stating that the
substance encountered in that sec
ton is as pure a grade OF silver as
Billy Bryan hal ped about during the
siXteen-to-one political epileptic
twenty-five years ago.
The veins of the metal-bearing
Irock are said to be Of approximate
lly three feet in thickness. The
width of the stratas is not known
The rock, according to Messers
Mayness and Cox, is found in album
dance and will produce at least
two-thirds of its weight in the
pure metal. They discovered the
substance several months ago and
considerable experimentation have
been made with the substance,
though no assayer OF known ability
has passed upon the metallic for
nation. Some who have examined
the metal, while not claiming to
be capable Of passing Judgment
upon the subject, believe it to be
either tin or zinc. But it has the
appearance of silver in its pure
Estate.
Mr.. Cox said they uuearthed a
rock bearing the date Of 177G; 9TH
Ter inscribed dates also were found
1T is the belief of those in the neigh
borhood that Spaniartls conducted
mining enterprises in that section
in the 18th century. They said
there are evidences of excavations
having been made and they follow
the course of the veins recently UNI
earthed.
Mr.. Mayness said they had sent
some of the metal to IA Joplin, Mo
assayer but have failed to get 8
response from him. They sent him
money for the purpose of giving
them an analysis but, it appears,

SCHOOL BOARD
ORDER UPHELD
Miss Pugsley May Enter
School at knobel Without
Face Powder--Fina Trial
at Corning.

Miss Pearl Pugsley, of knobel.
the young lady who was denied en-
trance to school for her failure to
conform to the letter OF the order
of the school board of that place
prohibiting the use Of face powder
and the wearing of finery OF dress
by young women students, appeared
before Judge Nicely at the court
house this morning with her at
torney, ]. N Moore, of Corning.
The plaintiff petitioned the court
for a temporary injunction against
the school board restraining 1t from
the application Of the order The
court granted a writ Of certiorarl 10
tho Clay county circuit cuort, 1t
was recommended that the plaintiff
enter school, but conform to the
boards rule, pending tho trial be-
fore the Clay county tribunal.
The case Will come up for a
hearing at Corning at the November
term, when the school board order
will be threshed out in legal bat

according to statement made by
the plaintiffs attorney to repre-
sentative of The Daily Press this
morning, following the injunction

1t appears that the status of the
case of Miss Pugsley, SO far as her
relationship with the school board
at Knobel is concerned, is the same
as prior to her unsuccessful effort
to enter school The action of the
Greene circuit court is interpreted
to mean that no prejudice against
the young lady's entrance to school
at Knobcl shall exist on the part
of the school board and that she
may take up her studies at that
institution. But she must not at
tend with powder on her face. The
