AUSTIN DAM
LONG UNSAFE
Startling Evidence Gathered
by State Officials.

Austin, Pa, Oct. 6.-The state au-
thoritfes who are Investigating the |
bursting of the Bayless dam here are
now In possession Of evidence OF the
most startling character, the import
OF which is that the dam was a con
slant menace to this town and that of
Costello, both of which are In ruins
from the food which swept over them
last Saturday.
Following the departure OF Governor
Tener from Austin after he had made
a personal inspection of the broken
dam and of the scenes of devastation
stretching far below It It was learned
that criminal prosecutions may devel.
op from the testimony that will be
presented at the inquest District At
tnrnev Harry Z. Nelson OF Potter
county will hold tomorrow.
The inquest, at which Deputy Attor-
ney General William M. largest will
represent the state, is expected to de-
velop much sensational testimony
from engineers who have carefully ex-
amined what remains Of the broken
dam and by others who are prepared
to swear that for many months the
condition Of the dam was so bad that
the many gallons of water retained by
1t threatened the dwellers In the val
ley below 1t with momentary death
and destruction.
II am more than ever convinced
that the states experience at Johns
town and the destruction OF this place
demands legislation that will give the
state control over all these dams and
the surrounding conditions Governor
Tener said. my heart goes out to
these poor people who have lost so
much, and / am surprised after view
ing the ruins that the list Of dead and
missing is as low as It Is reported"
When the search Of the ruins was
continued thirty-eight bodies had been
recovered and forty persons were re-
ported as missing. There ara nearly
500 laborers at work.
Postal service has been re-establish-
ed aud Postmaster Toy, with two wo-
men assistants, is overworked In han.
ding incoming mail.
There ts no ceremony In the burial
OF the dead. There are no carriages
or vehicles except one un~dertakers
wagon. When a body is turned over
to relatives a simple service ID read
and the casket ID borne to one Of the
two little cemeteries. where it Is low
cred into a grave.
Two bodies and bones that indicate
two more OF the missing may be ac-
counted for was the latest result of

becoming unmanageable, ran away
colliding with a telephone pole and
smashing things up generally.
Mr.. Vrooman was thrown to the
ground with such force as to frac-

rived in town with a remnant of
the harness still on him and in a
high state OF excitement. 1t is

The county commissioners of
Ziebach county made a good deal
for their constituents, last week, in
the matter of obtaining a court
house building and Jail for that
county. Philip Schweich is to
erect a building providing suitable
quarters for the county officials,
court room and also a Jail for
which he receives an annual rental
of $I,o55. After full payment OF
two years rent is made he then
transfers the building to the coun-
ty for the consideration of 81.
This arrangement will be greeted
with approval by the residents Of
Ziebacl county and reflects credit
on the business acumen of the
members of the board of commits
sioners, who are giving the county
the benefit OF ripe experience and
honest administration.

AS result Sumter county looms up
in the pamphlet on dairying in Geor-
ri. recently issued by that railroad.
A delegate was sent to the meeting Of
tie Georgia Boards of Trade at At
lauta. membership was taken in the
Southern Commercial Congress, and
at the recent meeting in Atlanta Amer
icus was represented by a strong and
enthusiastic delegation. A special ad
vertising folder was issued for the oc-
casion and used very effectively. With
out fattering ourselves, it can safe
ly be said that Americas made good"
on that occasion and secured some
high class publicity. Americus was at
so well represented at the Albany
meeting to promote the Andersonvil!e
Route for the proposed great highway
from Atlanta to Jacksonville. The ice
has been broken and hereafter there
will probably not be so much difficult
ty experienced in securing delegations
to attend important conventions Jr
meetings that are calculated 70 pro-
mote the general public interests of
this section. If the past year had
been marked by nothing else than this
creation of a better understanding of
the Importance of active participation
in such movements it would have been
a memorable one in the history of this
organization. The praise must be ac-
corded the Board of Trade for fan
ming alive the spirit of interest until
it became a possibility to secure proper
representation on such occasions. That
interest must never be allowed to die.
Other Advertising Work.
In furtherance of the advertising
idea, arrangements have been made
with the Washington authorities for
one thousand copies of the soil map
and accompanying pamphlet, describ-
| ing the soils and agricultural posi-
bilities of Sumter county. This will
be a very valuable addition to the lit
erature of the Board of Trade. Per-
mission has also been secured from
the proper officials of the Central 81
Georgia railway and the Seaboard Air
Line for the erection of two great signs
at their respective depots, on which
will be carried advertisements Of
Americas and Sumter county. These
two advertisements will cost about
$125. AS soon as the money is in
hand, I would urge that they be erect
ed. They will be seen by thousand:
of travellers in the course of year
Efforts weresalso made to secure spe-
cial rate concessions for homeseekers
to Americas, but in this We failed.
In this matter, as in all others IN
which the railroads were concerned
the requests of the Board of Trade
