PASTOR DIES WHO
 ASSAILED SOCIETY.
Dr. Donald Sage Mackay ol Collegiate Church, New York.

New York, Aug. 2S.-The nAy. Dr Donald Sage Mackay. pastor of the Collegiate Church of St. Nicholas, Fifth avenue and Forty-eighth street one of the best known clergymen of the metropolis and of the country, died on train at Portland. Me.
 Dr. Mackay was only forty-fom years old. A Scotchman by birth, he was a brilliant preacher and an :nde fatigable church worker.
 Although Dr. Mackay's parish is iE the heart of fashionable New York and paid him s1o.oOO year. he had slway, been outspoken in his expressions con cerning the prevailing vices of the rich. Not long ago he created a sensa ton by proposing to convert the rict by bringing drunkards and thieves tt Fifth avenue as horrible examples He said in one of his sermons that at tracted national attention:
 Society today in fashionable churches is simply playing with gill paint. It is making too much of tho frame and too little of the picture Fifth avenue has a tendency to dress up sin. Society Is actually sordid ir sin. It is unconscious of it. It really glories In It. Today the divorce court instead of being a tragedy. Is a highly spiced. diamond dusted romance"

TOTAL DAMAGE $7,WO,OOo

Throughout South Carolina and Geor-

 Becomes Known - Loss In Ruined
 Bridges Alone In One State Is Over

 Out In Many Instances. "e-- a
 Augusta, Ga, Aug. 2S.-The Savan. nah river has reached gauge of thirty-seven feet. five feet above the flood line. The water gradually is fall ing. Reports of heavy damage to sur rounding country are reaching this city. -*
 The water still covers the streets of the city, and there is no hope of the lights being operated.
 Augusta and other towns in the flood ed district in the vicinity have been the victims of many robbers since the flood prevented the police protection. The reports are coming in from all sections that houses have been pillaged and that many persons have been robbed.
 Dead bodies cast up by the turbid waters have been literally fought for by inhuman vandals. who speedily stripped these corpses, gashed by tim bers and rocks, of clothing and what ever valuables they bore. Only the or dering out of the state militia by the governor will, it is believed. end these depredations. for the local police have more work to do than they can possi- ply accomplish. ..
 Many more bodies have been seen floating down the river, and many bales of cotton are being carried down stream,
 Work of Relief.
 The fire department, police force and city employees are giving relief wher. ever possible. .-.'.-.
 Harry Carr and Harry McAuliffe, both bookkeepers for the Nixon Gro cery company of Augusta, whose build. ings were destroyed by fire and floods, are reported missing, and it is thought that they were in the building when it was destroyed. ..-
 The total damage done in Georgia and the Carolinas. South Carolina in particular is estimated at at least ST 100000. Crops in large areas have been ruined. The corn crop especially suffered. Thousands of dollars worth of cattle have been drowned both in Georgia and South Carolina.
 A dispatch from Columbia, s. C., says: "A conservative estimate of the dam- age wrought by the floods in the loss of public bridges throughout the state is over s1.00O,000. In some counties not any bridge of importance remains intact. "The loss to the cotton crops is the most severe in years, and thousands of acres will be abandoned. Even the up. land crops were badly damaged by the 1 excessive and long continued rains."

We pledge ourselves to legislation by which the national banks shall be required to establish guaranty fund for the prompt payment of the de- positors of any insolvent national bank under an equitable system which shall be available to all state banking insti- tutions wishing to use it.''
 Republicans Silent on Subject.
 The Republican platform is silent on the subject, and the Republican candi. date not only does not advocate com. pulsory system, but specifically and emphatically opposes it. He even pic lures dire disaster and declares that If the proposal were adopted exactly as the Democratic platform suggests it would bring the whole banking sys- tenn of the country down in ruin"
 The chief cause of bank failures is the making of excessive loans to di- rectors or officials of the bank. This is the fruitful cause of disaster, and it has been impossible to secure legis- lation protecting banks from their os7n officials and directors Why? Because there has been no mutual responsibil- ity. When all banks become liable for the deposits of each the stockholders will insist upon the enactment of law making it criminal offense for bank official to loan more than the pre- scribed amount to one individual.
 Why has the Republican party been so quick to respond to the demands of Wall street and so slow to yield to the demands of the masses? There are two reasons-frst, the Republican par ty has allowed itself to become the servant of the favor seeking corpora tions, and, second, too many Repub- lican leaders look at questions from the aristocratic standpoint, the stand point of the few. rather than from the Democratic standpoint, the standpoint of the many. They legislate upon the theory that society is suspended from the top, and they fail. therefore, to un- derstand either the evils that aff1ict the body polite or the remedies that are needed. The Democratic party, viewing questions from the standpoint of the whole people. easily sees that which Republican leaders do not dis cover, and its remedies begin with the relief of the average man. This is the secret, if secret there be, of the pri- macy of our party in matters of re- form.
