Loss of Native Life and Property
 Near HonGl<ons Appalling.
 HONGKONG, Sept. 2O.-Though hun dreds of Chinese boatmen and their families were saved by the police and civilians, several thousands of the na- tive water dwellers perished in the typhoon, many within short distances of the shore.
 The losses in lives and property among the Chinese were appalling. The police stations in Hongkong are sur rounded by Chinese identifying their dead. The families of the Hongkons boatmen live night and day on the sampans, and thousands of these are now homeless.
 The Anglican bishop of Hongkong, Dr. J. Q. Hoare, was oh the yacht Po- mier, which stranded in Castle Peak bay. He was on his way to visit some neighboring islands when the storm broke and Is reported missing.
 Most of the damage was wrought on the Kowloen peninsula. The losses are estimated at several million dollars. Over thousand sampans and junks are missing from Hongkong alone. Wharves were swept away and houses collapsed. The military barracks are In ruins. The harbor Is strewn with wreckage thrown up on shore.
 Latest estimates are that thousand lives were lost during the typhoon and that the damage to property, pub lie and private, will amount to millions of dollars. Twelve ships were sunk, twenty-four driven ashore, seven were damaged, and one-half of the native craft in port were sunk. The shipping trade has been paralyzed through lack of lighters.

BRYAN AT COLUMBIA
Attacks Secretary Shaw's Tariff Arguments.
ORIENT NEEDS CHRISTIAN IDEALS
Roosevelt Used His Platform - Was Elected as "a God of War;"
 Would Go Down In History .t as Q Penccmaker. ..,- !

COLUMBIA, S. O., Sept. 20.-Wil- liam J. Bryan spoke to great assem- ply of people on the campus of the South Carolina university here. The audience was made up of representa- tive men from every county in the state. He stood under the portraits of Calhoun and Hampton, to whom he made eloquent reference in his opening remarks. He was presented by Gov ernor D. c. Heyward.
 Mir. Bryan expressed qualification that the meeting had been opened with prayer. and he referred to the fact that the need of the orient was Chris tian ideals for citizenship.
 He attacked Secretary Shaw's tariff arguments and declared earnestly that no Republican can refute tarif ques- tions without contradicting himself. He also declared he had no objection to President Roosevelt using his plat form, but he does object to electing a Republican when a Democrat could be chosen on the same platform and be consistent.
 Roosevelt. he said. had been elected as god of war" and will go down in history as a peacemaker.
 Peace was the Democratic platform. The Republicans. he charged, had re- fused to put a rate bill clause in their platform, but the Democrats at Kan sas City had done so. He made his usual antitrust argument and explain ed that he had been misunderstood in the matter of the public ownership of railroads.
 He wanted merely to correct existing abuses rather than to encourage cen tralizatlon. He declared he believed he is right and does not care whether the people agree with him or not.
 Mir. Bryan later left for Georgia to continue his southern tour.

: Independence League Candi-
 2, date Speaks at Hudson.
PICTURES JEFFERSON AND LINCOLN
sJeRerson Declared For Government For Greatest Good of Greatest Number, Lincoln For Control by
 the People For the People,"


 HUDSON, N. Y, Sept. 2o-The up state campaign of the Independence league was formally opened here amid great enthusiasm at the Columbia County fair, which Is being held at Hudson city.
 Representative William R. Hearst, the leagues candidate for governor, was greeted by large assembly. MT. Hearst said in part:
 ''rhe Albany association of party savers limited has issued prospectus of their close corporation. In this statement they say the Independence league addresses itself to Jefferson Democrats and Lincoln Republicans, whoever they may be-
 These gentlemen, who are unable to understand what Jefferson Democrats and Lincoln Republicans are have no difficulty in understanding what Ryan Democrats and Rockefeller Republic ans are.
 "For the enlightenment of the AL bany association 1 will explain that Thomas Jefferson was the founder of the Democratic party and Abraham Lincoln the founder of the Republican party. And I will define Jefferson Democrats and Lincoln Republicans as citizens of intelligence and con- science who understand the principles of their respective parties aud the pur- pose of the founders of their parties, who placed principle above politics and held patriotic duty higher than party loyalty.
 Jefferson declared in favor of gov ernment for the greatest good of the greatest number. Lincoln for a govern ment of the people, by the people.
 Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence and Lincoln said, I have never had a feeling politically that did not spring from the sentiments en- bodied in the Declaration of Independ- epce.'
 Jefferson enunciated the doctrine of equal rights for all and special priv ileges to none,' and Lincoln said that the principles of Jefferson are defini- tions and axioms of free society,"
 'sThe first convention of the Repub- IIcan party declared that it's object was to restore the action of the gov ernment to the principles of Washing ton and Jefferson
 Had the party of Jefferson remain ed true to the principles of it's founder there would have been little need of the formation of the Republican party. and were the Democrntic and Republic an party today true to their original principles there would be little need for the formation of the Independence lesgue.
 Let me say in conclusion that the cause of corruption is not better pro noted by the corrupters themselves than by the indiscriminate partisan who votes his party ticket, right or wrong Such a man puts no premium upon right. DO penalty upon wrong.
 God gave us eyes to see with. ears to hear with and brains to think with.
 There is never a time when we should not use our minds and our hearts. our patriotism and our religion to distinguish between what Is right and what is wrong. then follow our convictions to the end
