TOWN IS WIPED OUT
FLOOD NEAR RAWHIDE DESTROYS
$50 BUILDINGS AND SIX
LIVES MAY BE LOST.
SWEPT BY WALL OF WATER
Cloudburst Starts Work of Destruc-
ton in Nevada Settlement
Search Debris for Bodies of Miss
ing Persons.

Rawhide, Nev.-Swept by a ten-foot
wall OF water, following a cloudburst,
Squatter Town, a settlement near
Rawhide, was practically wiped off the
map early Wednesday morning. The
torrent destroyed $50 buildings and it
is feared that several persons lost
their lives.
The cloud broke on the summit of
the low hills to the north of the camp.
In few moments three-foot wall
OF water was pouring down the slope.
Several structures were torn from
their foundations and floated down the
street, while the crest of the flood
was covered with furniture, animals
and all sorts of debris.
Gathering force as it poured down
the channel, the flood swept into and
over Squatter Town, half a mile fur
Their down. The water formed wall
ten feet high as it crashed into the
structures.
Before the wave had passed 500
persons were homeless and their
property piled in a tangled heap in
the basin at the foot of National hill.
Large parties of workmen are
searching for bodies in the debris. AL
though several persons are reported
missing, there is no confirmation of
the report that lives were lost when
the ten-foot wall of water resulting
from cloudburst in the hills north of
this place swept over a section of the
town. The property loss will exceed
quarter of million dollars.
The buildings were nearly all of
wood and were easily swept away by
the terrific rush of the waters. The
people were caught like rats in trap
and barely had time to escape with
their lives. Aid has been sent from

When interviewed by a Mirror re.
porter yesterday Mr.. II. Il. Hill who
is member OF the board and can
didate for second term, said he had
Just this TO say with reference to
school matters.
Il am opposed to the election OF
Mr.. Frank as superintendent.
In 1905 my first year upon the
Board Of Education, Mr.. Frank was a
candidate for reelection and many
petitions were circulated among citl-
zens asking the board to support him
for a term OF years, which petitions
are now on file with Mr.. Jacoby. the
clerk OF the Board. Knowing at that
time but very little about the opposi-
tion to and the efficiency and qualifl-
cations Of Superintendent Frank, |
voted for him for a period OF two
years with two members of the board
voting against him.

"At the expiration of that two year
term he was again a candidate for
Superintendent and q small petition
of probably SO names was presented
to the board asking said board to re-
elect Mr.. Frank as superintendent
and Mr.. Tubbs as principal of the
High School. said to Mr.. Frank
that opposition had grown against
him in the two years previous and
to such an extent. that could not
support him, but he was elected for one
year with two of us members voting
against him. At the expiration OF
this one year term, Mr.. Frank in
sisted upon his further election and
this was only last year, 1908, and
the history and incidents of his cam
paign last year are in the memory %!

Last year several committees visit

Frank and in the same campaign
several committees visited me and re-
quested that / oppose Mr.. Frank.

sentiment was so strongly divided
upon Mr.. Frank among The patrons
in Marion City School District, chat
for the good OF the schools he ought
not to apply, and voted against him,
and three members of the board yot-
ed against him and his cause was
then appealed to the County Com
missioners of Marion County, who
elected him for term of two years.
At the close of that campaign it was
said by sc me OF Mr.. Franks friends
that the issue in the next campaign
(meaning this electioD would be can
didates for or against Mr.. Frank. AS
one of those candidates am opposed
to him AMI If elected will vote against
him. The issue this year in the
election OF Board of Education is
in no wise political, 1t is plainly
speaking, Frank or anti-Frank, and
with a long, continuous, divided senti-
ment upon this question: in the City
OF Marion, cheerfully invite the
issue and ask a CAREFUL considerate
expression from the voters in our
school district.
Il am opposed TO him because !
believe the sentiment is SO strongly
against h'm, that his usefulness as
a superintendent is impaired
Il am opposed to him because of
his lack of aggressiveness in public
school work.

duty of forming a new cabinet. In

II is certainly a fair proposition
that the guilty should be convicted
and punished and the innocent should
,.be acquitted and permitted to go with
!, out punishment. a man who know
ingly violates any law should If he is
unprecedented and his guilt Is shown,
certainly not decry the official before
whom he is tried if ne finds him guilty
and fixes the punishment at what he
considers to be the point commen-
surate with the offense. II a charge
IS preferred against man suspected
OF violating a law and il is shown in
the trial that he is innocent. the
person making the complaint should
, not condemn the Judge who guarded
Nsthe rights of the accused as a citizen
D This is certainly a fair proposition,
ITO which no loyal citizen can take
exceptions The law was not intended
10 pursecute the innocent but TO pun
,-ish the guilty and act as deterrent to
crime.

THE SCHOOL BOARD
CANDIDATES. STANDS.

There has been some inquiry as
10 where certain candidates for the
board of education stand, upon the
question as to whether or not Pro-
fessor II. l.. Frank should be re-
tanned as superintendent of the
schools. This seems to have been made
the issue in the campaign for can
didates for the school board and sides
have been pretty clearly defined. In
order that the voters when they go to
the polls may know where each can.
didate in both parties stands. the
Mirror extended an invitation to
each candidate, irrespective of party
aff.iation, to express himself stating
his position and giving the reason
therefore. The following statements
written by candidates and signed by
them were secured and are given
herewith.
DIR. A. IHU'S STATEMENT.
In answar to your question TO de-
fine my position in the event OF
election as a member of the Marion
Public Schools. would say the present
school board consists of three pro-
fessional men /. e. Attorneys-at-law,
and three business men. A change OF
electing one or more physicians would
surely prov an innovation much
desired. II elected School board di-
rector, shall stand for the care of
our normal healthy school children;
and their proper physical protection;
in a practical way. and for free school
books, against frequent changes OF
text books, non-partisan management,
the employment of the best qualifi-
ed teachers and superintendent re-
gardless OF politics and free from
secterianism, proper sanitary and
physical inspection of our school
children, ever inslstent that the school
rooms be kept clean and keep diseases
out, TO take all rational precaution to
prevent development OF contagious
diseases in the schools. In favor of
instruction in personal hygiene and
OF school and home. In
favor of teaching drawing, music and
at the proper time manual training,
the question of traininC for trade
VS. academic training an important
one and should be met intelligently.
Since superintendent Frank is elected
for the present school year. have
not regarded that part an issue, but
assure you we must have peace and
order In our schools, and IL elected
will insist to obtain or procure the
best superintendent, not from a poll
.ical nor sectarian viewpoint but for
-he best interest of greater Marion's
public schools"

That is depends largely upon whose
OK is being fored is clearly shown in
the present municipal campaign. Two
EyPars ago. when Mayor Lewis Scherff
isias candidate for mayor, a per-
sdstent fight was waged against him
on the Sunday baseball proposition
Ne was deciGed from the pulpit and
street corner because he did not put
q, stop 10 the game. At that time
;dhere was a Republican in the
sheriff's Office Now there is a Demo
'crat IN the sherins Office and the
,same men who decried Mayor Scherf
.for not stopping Sunday baseball are
.declariug that It is not the mayors
duty TO interfere, but that 1t Is the
,duy OF the sheriff to stop the game.
lT'he question now is, with whom
would the duty rest if the tables were
turned and Democrat We're mayor
and Republican was IN the sheriff's

MENT

Having been member of the
board of education for the past four
years, my record rather than an ex-
pressed attitude is up for public con.
sideration. II my record has met with
public approval, and Ii Is so express
ed at the polls, unwilling to con-
tinue in the service, with no selfish
ends 10 attain. My candidacy has no
other object view than conscen-
tious public service.
The chief and most important
duty OF the board. next year, is the
selection of superintendent, in whose
hands lies the whole responsibility
for the conduct of the public schools.
That superintendent should be a man
OF such training and experience, such
personality and broad mindedness,
such devotion 10 duty and such moral
character and personal worth that he
can command the confidence of an in
telligent board. and have It's loyal
support. The present satisfactory con-
ditions in our schools, the capable,
Jealous corps OF teachers, the ad-
yancement OF our schools in COM
parison with those in other cities,
all convince me tha tthe present
superintendent is such a man. He
has notably secceeded in spite of the
lack of harmony in the board, and.
without the slightest hesitation |
would favor his reelection.
