T~ TUE Ill-fated

AZ%A\m of Navarez
Y Wsn ~/ frst interest
\SE/ In Texas.
sS This large ex-
pediton was wrecked at the
mouth Of the Mississippi IN 1923.
Four members including Cabeza
de Vaca were captured by the
Indians and spent eight years
wandering through the country
eventually reaching the Gulf Of
California. 1t was their ac-
counts OF rich Indian villages
which led the Mexican governor
TO send Coronado to explore this
country. He returned after a
two-years' trip without discover
ing the reputed riches which he
was seeking.
To counteract the aggressions
OF the French settlements In
Louisiana, the Spanish estab-
lished many missions throughout
Texas, the most important be-
Ing at San Antonio. When the
United States negotiated the
Louisiana Purchase from France
they considered that Texas was
q part OF this territory. Over
this question war was nearly
precipitated but finally the Uni
ted States withdrew their claims
in exchange for Spain's with
drawal Of claims to the Oregon
region.
Many Americans began TO set
tie In Texas. among them Cen
eral Sam Houston and Stephen
Il. Austin. Mexico became
alarmed az this rapid increase
OF American pioneers which
threatened TO crowd out the Mex
lean population. Oppressive
measures were adopted and
caused the Americans TO rise
In rebellion In 1896. During this
uprising occurred the gallant de-
fense Of the Alamo by a handful
of Americans and their slaughter
by the vastly superior numbers
of the Mexicans. Remember the
Alamo" became the Texans slo-
gan. General Houston decisive
ly defeated the Mexican forces
at the battle OF San Jaclnto and
the Republic OF Texas was
launched with Houston as presi-
dent. The flag contained one
star. and from this has come the
name the Lone Star State. After
considerable opposition from the
North, Texas was annexed TO
the Union and became the twen-
ty-eighth state.

BRlATAlM TO DEVOTE
 MILLION POUNDS TO
 FOSTER COTTON CROP
By Associated Prcss

Manchester, England. June 7.-- Winston Spencer Churchill colonial secretary addressing the British Cot ton Growing association today, an Hounced that it was the governments intention to devote million pounds sterling to foster cotton growing in the British empire instead of 50,0o0 pounds yearly for five years as for merly promised.
 The million sterling would be pro- vided, he said. out of the profits arising out of the cooperation of Egypt and Great Britain in market ing Egyptian cotton during the war.
 Mir. Churchill said that although much had been achieved in cotton growing in the empire, it little com pared with what might be done. Re- ferring to Egyptian cotton he de- clared it to be superior in quality and only second in quantity to that of fered in the United States.
 Dealing with the political situation in Egypt he said Egypt must under go d change in character.
 We must do all in our power" he declared, Ito secure for the Egyptians the honorable status which will rem der cooperation with the British em- pire easy and agreeable to them. But the time has not yet arrived when the British armies can withdraw and allow mobs in Cairo and Alexandria to make short work of the European population and the great construc- tive achievements which 40 years of British administration have secured for the Egyptians"

Mclean versus George E. Stone, as treasurer, and rendered one holding that the treasurer must pay Mclean a salary as road superintendent until he was succeeded by s. M. Adams, who was elected road engineer under the new law.
 The court of appeals ruled that the board of revenue did not lose any of its powers by the act of 1920. and was limited only to the extent of ob- taiping road engineer who has had three years experience. It may se- lect any person who has had such ex- perience in practical road work, Mr. Mclean, in his petition, set up the fact that he has had three years ex- perience as road engineer. and if this be fact supported by evidence It 1s within the power of the board of revenue to continue him in office If IL so desires under the courts opinion, which was written by Judge William H. Sanford.
 Several weeks ago the court hand ed down decision, in which it held that the act of 1920 was constitu- tional thht MT, Adams had been le- gaily selected road engineer and that ne could force the treasurer by man. damus to pay him his salary as such otficlal However. it did not pass upon the other points in dispute and even in the latest decision did not say specifically whether or not the old road superintendent is eligible for the new position
