Der when I left the State of

well-known in Adair county, es-
pecially about Columbia, Sparks

more thansfifteen years old when

not know what l could do until
l tried. My father was a ma
chlnist, running threshing ma.
chine for about ten years.
I always wanted to be a must
clan, and / did not know what an
automobile looked like. My
father brought me down to the
State of Florida and set me
down shoe mouth deep in the

ing sand spurs out of my feet, ]
got a pair of shoes and off ]
went. The first man | asked for

He is an old line Republican, and
this is the first time he has ever
offeredifor office. He feels that

The first attack in the Senate

came from the Republican side,
Senator Nelson, of Minnesota,
chairman of the Senate judiciary
Committee, characterizing the
resolution as unusual, hating,

position shattered hopes of lead
ers for a solid Republican Lineup

ton fight in the Senate. He
contended that the Knox peace
plan omitted important essen

UP TO PRESIDENT
Senate Takes Final Action
on Army Appropriation
Bill.

Final action was taken on the con-

priation bill yesterday afternoon in
the President for his approval.
Among the items included is $780,
900 for beginning work on an in
creased water supply for the District
in accordance with plans made by
Maj. NJ. c. Tyler, U. S. A., Engineer
Corps. The item for the development
of rGeat Falls water power project
The Army bill as passed carries ap-
proximately $32S,000,000.
The Senate accepted the proposal of
House conferees for reduction of the
Army to 10000 enlisted men by Oc-
House. which originally voted to make
a cut to 10000 by the end of the next
fiscal year.
wadsworth Voices Protest.
Chairman Wadsworth of the Sen
ate military committee. said he moved
acceptance of the House proposal
under personal protest"
IT is with the greatest reluctance"
be said, that 1 ask the Senate to
agree to something which will turn
10000 men out of the Army within the
next three months, in violation of a
moral contract. But it must be done,
or there will be no Army appropria-
tion bill"
Arbitrary discharge" of thousands
of men was treatment which never
before has been administered to our
Army the senator said, and would
result in no economy. as it would cost
about $3,500,000 to pay transportation
expenses of discharged men.
The $32S,000, 900 total carried by the
bill compares with s320.000,000 in the
House bill and 334.000.000 in the Sen
ate measure. The Army bill vetoed
by President Wilson at the last ses-
sion carried $346.000,000 and provided
for a minimum Army of $4,000 men.

that the volume of cheering from the

open a shipping dock instead of the
parliament which even its supporters

1t was a sidelight on the character
of the parliament that the king s

tary, but by the English home secre-
tary. Constitutionally the kings
speeches are not his own. but his min
