THE city of St. Pierre, the principal
port of the French island of Martin
ique, was destroyed, with all its in
habitants, at O. clock Thursday morn
ing by flow of lava from the volcano
Mount Pelee. The number Of lives
lost will exceed 10000, and may be as
great as 10000. Lava and ashes have
been pouring down upon the doomed
city. The panic-stricken population n
fed to the waterside, but in vain.
Eighteen ships in the harbor we're
destroyed by molten lava, and the
people who fed to the wharves were
soon caught in the awful food and con-
sumed. All the suburbs within a
radius Of four miles were destroyed.
Gable communications with the island,
as we'll as with the islands of st. Vim
cent, Barbados, Grenada, Trinidad
and Demerara, is interrupted. Steam
ers that escaped during the eruption
report APPALLING losses.
The tremendous loss of life is COM
parable to that in the eruption of
Mount Krakota, in the Strait of Sunda,
between Java and Sumatra, from May
TO August, 1888, when 36,3sO persons
perished, and to the Lisbon earth
quake of November 1, 1855, in which
200 persons were killed, but pales
before the great earthquake in Canton,
China, November 30, 1871, in which
100000 lives were lost. 1t far over
shadows the loss of lives in the de.
struction of Pompeii and HercuIaneum
August "a, A. D. 40, in which between
1900 and 5000 lives were lost. In tn,

The Union Republican Legislators
who voted continuously for J. Edward
Addicks, have made their complete
and final reply to the "Regular" Leg
isIators who made another effort to.
bring about the election of two United
States Senators with the elimination
of Addicks. The course taken was ex
pected from the start and the situation
and temper of those who have vote
on the question was shown in the
resolution making the answer ''inal
aud conclusive and that no further
propositions will be considered or an
swered relative to the Senatorial ques
tiOn, except that contained in their
answer: viz, that their differences shall
be settled by the ordinary Constitu
tional methods of legislature pro-
cedure.
Neither is there much of a possibility
of compromising and the two factions
will doubtless 90 into the campaign
single handed and fight their differ
ences out at the ballot box. The Will
mington .Sun is moved to speak in
forcible terms on the Subject of
making a compromise with the bolt
ing or regular" Republicans.
Compromise is not the only way to
win for the Republican party in Della
ware. There need be no compromises.
A proposition to compromise is a con
fession of doubt-and admission of
probable wrong; there can be no politi--
cal wrong in submitting the question
in dispute, as to the Republican party
organization, to vote of ali the Re-
a2ublicans of the State and abiding by
the Tes1Tf. To men who want to be
Just right. who want to arrive at de-
cision that is as near right as human
Judgment can get in matter of poll
ties, the way to that achievement is
open. 1t is simply this, agree to sub
nit the dispute to the voters at the
polls, in free, fair, honest, delegate
election. In politics in this country
the ballot box IS the court OF last re-
sort. The decisions reached there are
as nearly infallible as human action
and human judgment can get. There
need be no compromise in it. No one
can lose any right. that may inure to
him in politics by or in a majority de-
cision made by the people at the ballot
box. That is the reasonable way, the
just way, it is the American way, and
the Republican way. In it there is no
compromise required, no surrender
involved. Why should any American
citizen, any Republican, hesitate to
accept the arbitrament of a political
dispute at the polls? Refusal to dc
that is to inaugurate revolution at the
very base of our free institutions. Il
is a revolt against the people.

The message was sent by Operator
Miller at Alpine Tunnel and he went
on to explain that three bears, two
large ones and a cub. had laid siege
to his office. He was without firearms
and feared that they would break in
the doors, against which they had
leaned heavily several times. The dis
patcher directed the conductor of the
night freight to secure Il rifle along the
road and be ready for carnage when he
reached the eastern end of the tunnel.
The bear family remained about the
depot for some time. shifting at the
cracks in the door, and finally the op-
orator opened an upper window and
emptied a jar of vitriol upon the head
of the largest one. That seemed to
satisfy the bears curiosity and 1t de-

Effective.

Denver, June 24.-Frank b. Gibson.
vice president Of the International
Trust Company, having offered,
through the Colorado Bureau OF In
formation, the sum OF $25 for the best
paper on methods of making Denver s
motto, Forward" effective, there
were a large number OF papers sub
mitted and the prize was awarded to
Wayne C. Williams, reporter on the
Denver News staff. who was formerly
student at the University OF Denver
and editor Of the University paper. 1t
is believed by the Press Bureau OF In
formation that not only Denver but
other Colorado cities will be able to
benefit by the measures suggested. The
paper Is as follows:
Mr.. Thomas ID. Parker. Manager Colo
RADIO Press Bureau Of Information.
Dear Sir-The problem OF securing
the general adoption OF Denver's
motto, Forward" by all Its citizens,
is two fold:
First-The people must become thor
oughly familiarized with it, and 1t
must be brought before them often
enough to make 1t common. 1t cannot
become too common.
SecOn0-A CIVIC pflue anu UNITY OF
interest In the motto must be aroused
among citizens, high and low, which
will make 1t n motto revered and re-
spected, and significant to everyone
who repeats 1t.
1-Popularizing the Motto.
(a) The newspapers must play the
first and most important part. Per-
haps their owners do not appreciate
their vital relation to the clty's growth
and progress. Let the papers have H.
lustrated cartoons, place the motto Mt
the head of their columns, comment on
II In editorials, and offer prizes for
essays on, say ''Five Things that Den
ver's Motto Stand For"
(b) The merchants can do much to
popularize the motto. In display win
iows, In stationery, In giving out tick
cts of every sort, the motto can be nd
vertIsed to great advantage. II could
be inscribed on banners. A general
form OF Denver stationery, embodying
the motto, might be approved by the
chamber Of commerce or the press bri-
rcnu. and all business men be asked to
use II.
tc) Street ears could carry the motto
vn banners, say for a stated period.
Wagons and autos might display It.
At carnival time ana on Labor day. the
best possible chance Ii afforded. Clubs
could ofrer prizes for the best repre-

securing the adoption and use of the
motto. on every possible occasion. and
to make opportunities for populariz-
ing 1t. The entire city might be divid-
ed into, districts, by blocks, and the
people in each strive to outdo others,
in exemplifying or typifying the mot
to, Forward"
1t is not too much to say that such
Efforts as these. of adopting motto
and trying to follow 1t. are badly need
ed. Denver citizens must be aroused
to new sense OF unity of effort, and
common pride in their city. The hum
blest and the wealthiest citizens must
have this one thing In common-a gen.
erous and enthusiastic pride for all
that will make for Denver's welfare
and progress. When this common
pride is fully shared. all things In Den

New Republicans in Line.

One of the men who are here to at
tend the love feast today will, for the
first time in his life, mingle at large
republican gathering as a republican.
He is John w. McCardle, grain deal
er of New Richmond, and one of the
most prominent citizens of Montgom-
cry county. McCardle left the demo-
cratic party after the second defeat of
Bryan and cast his lot with the re-
publicans. In the last campaign he
could have had the democratic NOM
ination for congress in the ninth dis
trict, but he declined it. He believed
that representative Lands would be
reelected and had strong idea that
President Mckinley would again be
successful. He felt then that he ought
to leave the party, but he did not be-
lieve in deserving a ship under fire.
He remained with the party and voted
the democratic ticket, but soon after
the election he announced that he
would no longer affiliate with the
Observation-Disclosures Journal.
