10 The Democratic Voters Of the County.

/ am a candidate for the Office of
Prosecuting Attorney. tits but fair to
you to state that my retirement for
some years from practice has robbed
me of much of such small knowledge
and training as l might once have had.
It is but fair to myself to affirm that ]
would not seek this Office did ] not feel
that I had made-or would make my
self capable of filling it. am
graduate of one of the foremost law
schools in the country (Columbia;) was
associated in practice for some years
with the late Capt. Geo. Baylor, whose
partner l was at the time of his death.
If elected will give the best that is in
me to my county. l will prosecute
vigorously all true violators Of our laws,
regardless of whom they be. will
seek to save to our people the expense
of such prosecutions as are silly, hope
less and foredoomed to failure. If
elected. pledge myself-utterly re-
gardless of pressure and consequence
to be true to my conscience, my Office
and to you.

REIGN Of TERROR'AUCUSTA ROCKED
PREVAILS IN CUBA BY EARTHQUAKE
Havana Full of Refugees, Who
Tell of Terrible Torture by
Negro Rebels.

SANTIAGO. CUBA, June l2.-Re-
peated attacks on American marines
have resulted in strict precautions by
the commanders of all attachments
sent out to protect property in eastern
Cuba.
The declarations of government off
Gals at Havana that the rebel outbreak
is under control is clearly shown to be
false by the insurrecto operations. This
city is filled with refugees who fed
from their property for protection of
their lives bringing stories of rapine
arson and pillage committed by the SOL
diers of Generals Estonez and Ivonet
They assert that terrible tortures are
inflicted by the negro rebels-that
women are daily outraged, mutilated
and murdered.
The government soldiers are not
much better. 1t is asserted that they
have cut off the ears Of captive rebels
and turned them over to their officers
as proof of their success.
Reports were received early today Of
an outbreak at the Woodfred mines
near Mayari, where IS American ma
rines have been sent with a rapid fire
gun.
