GALVESTON, September l4-The ii, I
real attempt TO clear away the giea
mass Of debris piled along the beach
for a distance Of several miles was e.
gun today Advertisements We're print
pi this morning asking for hundreds OF
men aud boys to do the work. A multi.
tude responded. They were formed in.
to squads and promptly put to work
with police and deputy sheriffs in
charge. Ii is hoped that vigorous
prosecution OF this work will lead to
the early recovery Of bodies still in the
debris. That there are may of them
there il no shadow Of doubt It is diffi.
cult, indeed, to imagine how half the
people that did escape got free Of this
fearful folsom and jetsom.
An Associated Press representative
trayersed the beach for some distance
today and the stencil at different points
was absolutely sickening. Everywher,
little groups Of men. women and chill
dren, some of them poorly provided
with raiment. were digging IN the ruin,
of their homes for what little house
hold property they could save. In many
cases those seeking their former resi-
dence were utterly unable to find =
single remnant of them, so hopeless i.
the confusion Of timbers and household
furniture.
Relief funds are coming in rapidly
yet the demand is not satisfied. Nor,
appeals are being made.

The STORM.

Cold blows the gale from out the north;
Wild moan the forest, vale and moor.
Fierce spirits wander boldly forth.
Grim monsters scream at every door.
Against the tempest's hurting might (
God keep the helpless poor tonight.
Cold creep the waves along the shore;
Wild shout the breakers in their gies.
Fierce swells the voice OF ocean roar,
Grim stalk the shades along the lea.
Against the storms tempestnous might
God guard the sea tossed ships tonight.
Cold mists are turned to rattling hail;
Wild voices call in every gust.
Fierce forms resist the shouting gale;
Grim faces toward the sea are thrust.
Oh, God, against the oceans might
Protect the staggering ships tonight!
All, cold the seas embrace and chill
The winds that wildly howl and fling,
As wrecks are tossed and forms now still
To spar and mainstsy sadly cling.
All, yes, for aye, from tempest might
Thine own are safely housed tonight.

 territory on November
 THERD 6, when it declined to
 ARE endorse the national re-
 OTHERS publican party and
 thereby put statehood aside, will be interested in the following remarks by Senator Wolcott, regarding the action of Colorado:
 Tt is pitiful, almost grotesque, to re- .aiize that this great, intelligent state has joined hands with Montana, which was always. even in ter 1Ttorial days, democFNtic, and which never went republican except when its denocratic mag mates quarreled, and with Nevada, the population of which is less than at least any ore of six towns in our s,ate, in allying itself with the unprogress!ve states of the South. If anyone will take map and mark the states which have cast their majority for Bryan. they will see how isolated we are among the great progressive states of the Union. Even New Mexico wen'- republican. and we are entirely sur rounded by republican states"
 ITO what do you attribute the result in this state?"
 ''The silver question is, of course, at the bottom of it. It induced our peo- pie, irrespective of party, to vote for Bryan four years ago, and there are still thousands of people in Colorado who have a lingering belief that dem ocracy and bimetallism go hand in hand. There is a rude awakening in store for them.

WON'T DO IT AGAIN.

True love has waited upon tarly ship builders long enough, so Miss Lucy Shaler Macdonough, after having once postponed her wedding in order that she might christen the new torpedo boat Macdonough as a maid, will posi- lively wed on November 22. The bat will not be ready for launching until December, but Miss Macdonough. who is to marry Charles Holcomb Reade, will break the bottle of wine over the Macdonough's prow and thereby cast down one of the ancient fetishes Of the navy, which says that no welded wo- man shall chlfsten a ship.
 Miss Nacdonough is a daughter of Captain and Mrs. Charles AGacdonough of Philadelphia. She is the grand Daughter Of Commodore Thomas Mac Gonough. who distinguish d himself with the American fleet on lake Cham plain, in the war of 1872. Sae and Mir ReaGe were to have been married last May. The Macdorough, which is build ing at Weymouth, Mass, should have besn launched In April. As the de scendant of Commodore MacdonouSh, the bride-to-be was asked to christen t' noat.
 There was Q hitch in the work upon the LOIt anu tl- launching was delayed. The builders wrote to Miss Macdon- ough, and wanted 10 know if she could not conveniently manage to retain her maiden name until Ghe boat was off the ways. The proposal was startling, but Miss MacdonougA consant=d. Mr. Reade was not wcn over So 5asily, but he was coaXed into q surrender ard the date for the ceremony was set for ward tc. November p.
 Then came anothcr delay in the work upon the torpedo boat. The builders had promised that the craft could leave the ways some time last month, a the latest. 4 feN days ago the builders wrot- another letter to Miss Macdor5ugh. They wanted 10 know if she wouldn't Just as soon put off the wedding once more, owing to the fact that they had found it impossible to get the boat ready for launching until De- cember. That was the last straw, so Miss MacdonougA will bs come a bride on the day appointed.-Philade!p North American.

One very good thing is to come out of the defeat of MT. Bryan. Never again
 will any presidential AN OBJECT candidate who has a LESSON IN fighting chance to put POLITICS. in jeopardy endanger it
 by running tit against the gold standard. We do not mean to say that our future politics is to be cleared of the silver question for good and all. There may be for many years minor candidates who will ap- peal for popular support in behalf of the white metal. and derounce 'the crime of '73" with all the +ervor which Senator Stewart used to put into his denunciations of chat heinors offense; but the championship of silver is henceforward to be left to these minor candidates, to men who realize that they cannot by any possibility be elected to the presidency, and so vii be willing to put themselves astride of sense enough to measure tke drift of public opinion have had in this pres:- dential campaign a lesson |.licn they are not likely to forget regarding tIe devotion of our business men to the honest money cause. If that sen timent was not recognized before, it is thor oughly understood now. The sight of those marching myriads in New York, who plodded for miles through rain and mud to testify their attachment to our currency in its present form, the soundest form ever known by the American people, was an object lesson that will not rass from the minds of thinking men.
 In past years politicians have thought popularity could be obtained by attacks upon gold money. The sh yer men made such a clamor that their relative strength was greatly over valued. It was another example of Burke's metaphor about the grassnop- pers under a fern who made the field ring with their importunate chinE, while thousands of great cattle chewed the eud and were silent. The listeners imagined that the half dozen grassnop- pers were the only inhabitants of the field, and ignored the cattle that could trample the clarrorous insects into the ground. The experience in this presi- Gertial' election, according as it GOcs Che teaching of four years back, las tIpcned the eyes Of pclj.icians to the foCe relations of things, They have eNold out that it is a deadly bIunder tc spete the fears of business men re trfing ahe safety of the currency.

When she sends a telegram the telegraph company furnishes the mes senger boy without charge, and she makes them do her errands on the way to and frc1i the office. She knew every boy who answered the call the day I was there and I believe she knows every one in the office. She tipped the boys five cents nearly every time, but sine could afford to co that, for she is saving the cost of a servant by her col lect messages.

HOW SHE USES HER RFIENDs.
Woman Artist Who Makes Them Pay
 For Her Messenger Service.

The young woman artist in question (she styles herself a bachelor g.rD has long puzzled her friends by her reck- less use of telegrams to convey the most ordinary messages.

 | Under our present election system the agony is too long drawn out. Can cld1tes and their supporters have tC wait hours, if not days
 LET'S to learn the result
 HAVE When the polls close
 BALLOT the suspense really be-
 MACHINES. gins. Here it is owe,
 week since the elec- ton and the Arizona returns are not fully tabuiated.
 The ballot machine offers a way out of this bacbwoods. system of recording and counting votes. Such machines have been used in several elec- tions in Buffalo, Rochester. Utica and a nurber of smaller places in New York state, and have worked to the complete satisfaction of the people. This year Eln,ira. Rome and a score of other New York towns used them. The only opposition to them has come from politicians who are under the susric- ion of objecting to the certainty wf:h which the voter can express his choice, and the urchangeable accuracy with which it is registered. Defect i've ballots, miscounts, and false re- turns are rendered virtually impossi- ble
 The process of voting is extremely simple and easy;every vote is mechan- icaHy registered with certainty as cast, and the total for ealh candidate is instantly disclosed upon opening the back of the machine in the view of of ficers and watchers of both parties when the polling ceases. As Q result, the making up of the returns is a mere matter of transcribing the figures, which can be Gore. in few minutes. This was done 90 expaditi0usly in Ro- chester that the aggregate from all the precincts was made rp and the total result transgnitteI an hour and half after the closing of the polls.
 Every election since our present bal lot system was adopted has made it more and more evident that we. have not reached the final method of polling the votes of qualified electors. The element of uncertainty and the oppor- tunity fer fraud still exist. Whether the baEot machine presents a perfect inEshOd or not, it is 9 vast improve ment upon that which is now in use, and it admits of the same variations upon questionable points as the Aus tralian ballot, which in effect 1t appro- plaafes and adopts. Fer instance, can didates' names may be either arranged in party columns and vC.ed as whole or in detail. or they may be arranged alphabetically, and voted one by one.
 We suggest to the incoming legisla- ture tkat the ballCt machine question be considered with view to placing Arizona in position to secure quick au1 accurate election rsturns.
