was repulsed. The summer of

was repulsed. The summer of
1928 was one of extreme drought,
broken at last in August by dis
astrous hurricane. The streets
were running streams, the people
had to seek refuge on the roofs
and upper stories of their houses.
Many went to a watery grave, %
ships were driven ashore and wreck
ed by the dreadful storm.
This disaster was followed
by an outbreak of yellow fever,
which left multitudes of dead in
its destructive wake. Starvation
followed. The Spaniards were ever
on the watch for a chance to
e1terminate the colony, and they
were continually urging the
slaves to run away, and come to
st. Augustine, and urged on by
these things, they reyolted against
their masters. Led by a negro
named Cato, they collected to-
gether, and with drums beating
started on their march of destruc-
ton. They burnt houses, murder
ed men, women, and children.
They were dispersed, however, and
their leader hanged. In November,
1740, fire destroyed over half of
Charleston. More than 800 houses
were burned, and many families
ruined. In the year 1851 bands
of marauding savages plundered
the plantations on the Santee and
Cooper rivers.
The next year, 1852, Charleston
was again visited by destructive
hurricane. The waters of the sea
were driven into the city, add
many persons were drowned, and
much property destroyed. A few
years latter the Cherokees fell up
on the settlers of the up-country;
wherever they were to be found.
Just as the people were preparing
to attack them messengers arrived
from tie Indians pretending to
make peace. scacely had they
returned to Charleston, when they
heard of the massacre of Fort
George. The garrison hearing Of

invest in the Best Building and Loan
Association in the Country.
OF all the various plans adopted by
the building and loan associations as
saving funds of the country, we know of
none so easily understood and equitable
in the division of its profits as that of
the New York National Building and
Loan Association, which has commenced
to do business in Freeland. 1t costs one
dollar share to join and sixty cents a
share per month to keep it up, the GER
tificate of membership guaranteeing that
the stock will mature in seven years if
not sooner retired. When it loans
money it is for seven years only, and
the mortgage so states; thus borrower
can tell before he goes into the associa-
ton what it will cost him to pay off his
mortgage and the member who holds
stock as an investment can tell what it
will cost, and how many months at most
he will have to pay in to mature his
stock.
Ten dollars paid for membership and
twenty cents saved every day and paid
into the hands of the collector at the
rate of six dollars a month will pay the
holder one thousand dollars in seven
years. Have you saved any money
within the past seven years? If not
commence now. The next seven years
will pass more quickly with you than
the last seven. Six cents day saved
will pay you three hundred dollars in
eighty-four months. Can you save six
cents day? This associations prepaid
stock is a splendid investment. By
paying six hundred and fifty dollars
(S650.00) for ten shares, the holder will
receive nineteen dollars and fifty cents
(Sl9.5O) interest every six months, in
four years, if not sooner, and in addition
to the interest paid him, he will receive
one thousand dollars (S1000.0O).
Many thousands of dollars have been
placed in this prepaid stock as we'll as in
the monthly installment stock, and
thousands of dollars have been loaned
by this association in Hazleton, Wilkes
Barre and other growing towns in Lu-
zerne county. All those who want a
few shares of stock in the forty sixth
series should apply at once to T. A..
Buckley, who has accepted the agency
and collectorship for the association, or
you can subscribe with any of its author
lied agents.

So the Republicans are going
to favor us with some vocal
music this evening. There is
nothing like hearing both sides
of every question, but l do
trust their orators will stick
closer to facts than was done
at Hazleton a few evenings
ago. The principal speaker
over there let his imagination
run so loose that his address
resembled one long string of
oratorial fireworks, as mean
ingless and devoid of truthful
foundations as the famous fif-
teen-hour speech of Senator
Allen. | enjoyed the efforts
of the audience trying to follow
the generals rapid flights from
one subject to another, and
finally when he got the Halle
tonians bewildered he stopped
long enough to say a few
words for the county candi-
dates, in whose interest the
meeting was supposed to be
held. Such speakers may do
for Hazleton, but they are not
the kind who suit in Freeland.
Our Republicans, like the rest
of our people, prefer at least a
proportionate amount of com
mon sense in politics, and if
the meeting tonight is to be a
repetition of the one held at
Hazleton not many Freeland
Democrats will change their
opinions. SAUNTERER.

This is very likely true, for
the scheme to induce Demo
Gratis to cut part of the ticket
because the nominees were
members of this or that organi-
zation fell very fiat here in
Freeland. There were several
who intended to vote for a
portion or the whole of the
Republican ticket until they
learned the society question
was being used by Republi-
cans. The introduction of this
issue certainly ends all chances
of Republican success, for a
dozen Democratic rings would
be preferable to one official
who will stoop to that method
of electioneering. | still think
the vote, however, will be
lighter tomorrow than on any
election for three years past.
Many cannot reconcile them
selves to ring rule, even though
it is better than what the other
side offers, and they will stay
at home.

as a cover under which per-
sonal spite can be vented
against those saloonists who
refuse to be used as the tools
OF certain people. l do not
think the parties arrested last
week are in any imminent dan
ger of being deprived of their
liberty or their license, for the
motive that causes arrest on
this charge generally figures
very prominently in Luzerne
county courts. Still, since the
fact is now proven that there
are people prowling about
seeking to revenge themselves
on the saloon men, it would be
good policy for liquor dealers
to give them as little chance
as possible to secure further
evidence, for according to the
arranged programme the end
of this matter is not here yet,
and there is danger from an
other quarter that may make
things interesting.
That was quite a group of
Democratic politicians who
came to town on Thursday
Treasurer McGroarty, Deputy
Sheriff Hart, P. M. Gilligan,
Barney Brennan and Squire
John J. Brislin. All of them
are pretty well known among
the party leaders here, except
ing, perhaps, Mr.. Gilligan,
who never before had the
pleasure of visiting Freeland,
although he has been a resi-
dent of Wilkes-Barre for over
forty years. The object of
their call was to take a general
survey of the political situation
and to stir up the dormant
Democracy of this part of the
county. Since their visit there
has been a slight increase of
activity noticeable, yet it does
not come anywhere near the
interest manifested in previous
years. They claim, however.
the condition of the party else
where was never better and
say that since the Republicans
have resorted to questionable
means to elect their candidates
the Democrats who were
wavering have returned to the
fold to resent the insult offer
ed to a large body of the voters
of the party.

thus excluded. Senator Stewart had
