old hoard statu that tbo bill under

idently not In sympathy with the
CamTlell Russell movement to recall
the board members and may not
recognize the new board. They had
been in office but a short time and
were striving to do something in thoir
line of work an J before they had
tluin to make a success or a failure
they were recalled. Although they
were elected under a law written
by Campbell Hussoll be became dis-
pleased with tbo law he initiated and
sought their recall. The next move
will probably bo the bringing of quo
warranto proceedings. While the
rase is ponding in the courts Mr.
Kryan and the secretary can he tho

prising if tho board of county com
missioners do not provide for this in
tho near future.
Tho board of county commission-
ers must set aside a certain levy
each year to maintain these convict-
built roads an this is part of the
stipulations exacted by the board of
prison control. It is their intention
to make permanent roads and they
want tho assurance of the county that
they will bo maintained after they
are constructed.

Nashville Tenn.. Sept. 21 Serie is
trouble was probably everted in the
house of representatives Wednesday
r;ertioo.i by the cool held -of Rep-
resentative A. 1-. Todd cf Rutherford

dross quieted angry members after
SiHaker Stanton had declared the

foreement bills for a special order
at C o'clock. Representative "Wilson
moved to adjourn. "Those in favor
nay 'Aye;' those opposed 'No.' The
house is adjourned" ruled the speak-
er with out taking a vote. This ac-
tion precipitated an uproar. Repre-
sentative ' McPado advanced toward
jhe sper.ker and Senator Fisher step-
ped between the two men. Speaker
Stanton hurried from tho hall. Thoi
scrgcant-at-arms was dispatched in
search of Speaker Stanton and fail-
ing to Nik him the house after a
wait of fifteen minutes adjourned.'
During the uproar it Is claimed that
weapons were drawn.
The exciting finale of the session
followed a day's filibuster by "regu-
lar" members who bad spoken appar-
ently against time to delay consider-
ation of the law-enforcement bills.
At the morning session Itepresenta-
live To: er man addressing himself
to Representative Royston had de-
clared "you lie you hound!" And had
started towapj him when pinioned by
five other members.
Shouts of "throw him out" and "he
doesn't belong here" greeted Senator
Fisher when he interposed botween
the speaker and Representative Mc-
Dade and Mr. Fisher was escorted
from the hall.
WOMAN WHO CAME FROM MIS-
SIPPI WILL STAY HERE UNTIL
SHE GETS THEM.
Josie nrown the woman who came
all the way from Mississippi to secure
her two children a boy and girl liv-
ing wtih an uncle near Lone Grove
has not been able to get the boy and
has gone to work to earn money
enough to pay the court cost in at
action to rocovei her boy who re
fuses to go with her and cannot be
taken wtihout court action as no
officer has power to act. Mrs. Hrown
says she will have her child and
the county attorney told her that sho
had a perfect right to him but unless
the undo would give tho boy ur
peaceably or tho boy consent to go
with her she would have to resort to
the courts to secure him. Jimmy
Mathers has consented to take the
woman's caso without pay and all shu
must do is to put up court cost which
she is working to earn.

OIL MEN PLEASED.
A Good Field or the Greatest Freak
Known Exists in Carter County.
Oil men who are In close connec-

the opinion that a really great oil field
has been discovered. One man said
today that two wells did not make
a field but be had never known of
only two wells being brought in and
none others found. So the Carter
county field is either a good one or
the greatest freak ever known to tho
o.l industry. The Apple -Franklin
Oil Company Is selling stock to local
parties nnd will put a rig In the field
within 300 yards of well No. 1. The
bringing in cf the second well ha
revived Ir.tirst in the local com-
pany and Feme who are anxious to
acquire an Interest in the oil field
have already invested their money.
Other stock will be sold at onoe
atul'a rig will be rlacod in the
field.
