Story of wrock

Port Angeles, Wash, Jan. 25-The Valencia left San Francisco on Satur day with 94 passengers and 60 crew, for Seattle. From the very first day she had rough weather Monday afternoon she was enYeloped in a dense fog. By midnight the fog had settled and when the vessel was running under half speed bell, she struck the rocks that are projecting out from the high cliff near Cape Beale into the ocean. The captain was taking soundings when the crash came. A panic result ed at once. The ropes were cut in the davits and the boats thereby upset leaving the deck crew helpless. The first boat launched, the second officers, was quickly filled with women and children, and wrecked against the side of the vessel.
 After striking, the vessel was sent hard astern, but she began to take wa ter at such a terrific rate that the crew came out of the engine room in a panic. Chief Downing, with the remnant ot his crew, stood at his post. The ship was again put on the rocks where she held fast. settling with heavy list. Hope Still Ezists
 Seven boats and two life-rafts were finally launched. Three have beeh heard from, It is hoped that others will be picked up. The coast is being patrolled aZd steamers are searching the sea.
 Latest Ne WIS of rhs Wreck
 Seattle, Jsn. 25-The latest reports from the wreck of the Valencia, re- ceived tonight show tolal loss of l23, The women pass=ngers insisted on stay ing on tue ves,e and went down with her wcen she s i'd from the rocks. The men saved O. the liie-rafJ sy they took to it only after the women had refused 10 do SO. Several womGn were placed in one Of the oats, and when laat heard from they pad evidently given up be- ing $ lyed and were heard 10 be earnest ly singing th= hymn, Nearer, My God to Thee" On board the vessel they spent their time in praying. Dur ing the night several women took of their skirts, saturated them with ker- oslne and burned them as dist ress signals.

Additional details of the wreck of the Pacific Coast Steamship CompEny'S liner, Valencia, which struck reef of Cape Beale, on the west shore of Van cOuver island, at midnight Monday, were received on the Georgia. The in- formation is 'contained in the dis patches of Wednesday afternoon and Thursday that would have been received by the Daily Alaskan had the cable not gone down. While the dispatches from the various points are slightly conflicting, the la est estimates place the loss of life at from lO8 to l23. The list of the saved includes 46 names. The ship had, it is claimed, 94 passengers and g crew of 60
 Two boats and one, liieraft, contain ing passengers and members Of the crew, were saved. Most of the saved were of the crew. Every woman on board, so far as known Thursday even- ing, went down with the vessel. Capt. O. M. Johnson, who was in command of the ship, refused to leave it, and went to the bottom. Many of the lost were swamped in the small boats after they were launched, much as was the case with the ill fated Clallam. Most of those lost in the first boat to be launched were women and childreo. After that the women refused to leave the ship, ard went down with her.
 The first boat load saved contained I5 persons, all told. Many of them were picked up from rocks that jut out of the water in the neizhborhood of Cape Beale. That was Tuesday after uoon. A life raft, containing IS, was picked up at sea at midnight, Tuesday, 24 hours after the ship went on the rocks. A boat containing nine persous reached the shore near Neah Bay, a few miles from Cape Flattery, Thurs day morning.

JOHN NJ. Knight, editor Of the Sum-
ter Herald. who died at Asheville, N.
c., a few days ago, was one Of the
most popular newspaper men in the
state. AS an editor he measured up
to an unusually high standard, and his
but 1t was as a man that this splendid
gentleman drew himself closest to
those with whom he came in contact.
For years he had been the soul Of the
annual meetings of the press associa-
ton. There was that about him which
made friends of all with whom he
came in contact, and every editor in
the state considered him a close per-
sonal friend. If anybody ever had i'll
will against him the fact was not gen.
orally known. He went to the recent
meeting of the State Press association
in Charleston, literally a dying man.
He knew il; but nobody else could
have gotten any such idea from his
disposition or manner This writer
met him for the first and only time ly
ing on a bed of pain. Col. Knight
was unable even to sit up. But the
illness was purely one of the body.
His kind, generous. fraternal spirit
was still at its best, and the introduc-
tory greeting was as if from a close
friend of a life times standing. Yes,
a splendid man was Mr.. Knight, and
none who has ever met him has ever
wondered why he was held in such
universal esteem. He was a Christian
gentleman.

THE PRICE OF COTTON.
Southern Cotton Association Working
on the Problem.


The interstate executive committee
of the Southern Cotton association be-
gan its regular fall session at Hot
Springs, Ark, yesterday, and has
spent the greater part of its time in
executive session in an effort to fix
a minimum price at which cotton
should be sold, but thus far no deci
sion has been reached. More than 1000
return postals in' answer to inquiries
as to the condition of the crop were
submitted to the committee, and rep
resentatives of the various sections
gave testimony which will be used as
a basis in arriving at the minimum
price. The making up of an estimate
of this years crop and the report Of
the committee appointed at meeting
in Atlanta last month to investigate
charges against officers of the associa-
ton of dealing in futures and other
important matters will occupy the time
of the members during the session
which will probably continue through
three days.
Fourteen of the members of the ex-
ecutive committee and ten presidents
of state associations are present.
In his opening address President
Jordan spoke of the good that has been
accomplished through closer relation
ship with the spinners and also re-
ferred to the action of the Southern
Wholesale GrocerS' association In en-
dorsing the use of cotton instead OF
jute bags. Mr. Jordan called attention
to the progress that has been made by
local organizations in the building of
warehouses. Mr.. Jordan said that the
finances of the association are in bad
shape; that no salaries have been paid
since February and that there is no
money in the treasury with which to
conduct u campaign of any kind. He
closed by referring to the report of the
special committee appointed to investi-
gate the charges that certain officers Of
the association had dealt in futures
while occupying their Offices
A motion of E. D. Smith of South
Carolina that the committee as a
whole, go into executive session to dis
cuss the minimum price at which cot
ton should be sold, prevailed
The entire afternoon was spent In
executive session. and at its conclu-
sion il was stated that no agreement
was arrived at. The night meeting
was also taken up in executive session
in an effort to arrive at the minimum
price.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1906-09-07
The Issue.

The most striking feature Of the
campaign just now closing has beer
the success Of the advocates OF the
state dispensary machine in confusing
the issue and the inability of the op-
ponents of the state machine to make
the issue clear. In his card to the vot-
ers Of York county, published in anoth-
er column, Mr.. Richard 1. Manning
says:
1.-The issue as between state and
county control of the liquor traffic Is
clearly drawn. I stand for a reformed
dispensary as against the experiment
of county dispensaries." -
While we do not question that tc
Mr.. Manning this stands out as a fail
not seem to touch the real question.
That Mr. Manning stands for a re-
formed state dispensary we do no,
doubt; but at the same time II he Is
elected and cannot get the state dis
pensary reformed" he will have tc
stand for it as 1t is.
The people who oppose Mr.. Manning
do not believe it is possible to continue
the state dispensary and keep 1t free
from graft. The promises at the be-
ginning were as sincere as they are
now. yet the dispensary has never
been other than rotten. His proposed
reformed" dispensary. in the event
he shall succeed in securing, it will be
what he calls the county dispensary
idea an experiment" with all the
chances against the probability Of free
dom from fraud.
The county dispensary to which Mr.
Manning objects is no more an "ex-
pertinent" than the state dispensary
The reformed state dispensary, Of
course, includes county dispensaries
The difference is that Mr.. Manning
wants the county dispensaries to be
under state control and Mr.. Anse
wants them to be under county con-
troll.
But this is not yet all. Mr. Anse
does not even stand for county dispen-
saries. He has never yet advocated
county dispensaries. He has merely
said that if the people of county in
sist on legalizing the sale Of liquor
they shall have the right to manage
] the business themselves. without inter
ference on the part of the state. Mr.
Manning says that if the counties wan
liquor they must let the state manage
the business for them.
The issue is one of local self-govern'
ment, and people who vote for the con
tinuance of the state dispensary ma
chine vote against local self-govern'
| ment
