PROHIS ATTACK BIG PARTIES
TAFT. DEMOCRATS AND ROOSE-
VELT COME IN FOR SCORING.
Alleged That Republican and Demo-
cratic Parties Are "Boss-Ridden
and Liquor Controlled

and ldquOr-COntrolIed.'
ATLANTIC CITY, N. j. A sensa'
tional attack upon President Taft
Theodore Roosevelt and the republi-
can and democratic parties in gener-
al marked the beginning here today
of the eleventh prohibition cOnven-
ton.
Clinton n. Howard of Rochester,
n. Y, temporary chairman of the
convention, made a speech which
bristled with denunciatiOn of the
"boss-ridden, liquor-controlled old
parties" He declared nothing in the
way of real reform was to be gained
from either of them, or from a third
party dominated by Roosevelt
mo other president since the
foundation of this government, de-
clared Mr.. Howard, has surrendered
more abjectly to the liquor interest
of this nation than has William How
ard Taft. His record is too recent,
familiar and odoriferous to require
review in this intelligent presence. J"
Mr.. Howard said it would be a
criminal waste of time to argue that
the liquor traffic could be stamped
out through the republican party 'by
it's silent platform, it's present and
unworthy leadership, it's long-con-
sistent liquor record and it's present
monopoly-nurtured candidate"
Same Influences.
and what better results can be
expected from the democratic party?
Not only as little, but less than moth
ing at all.
Exactly the same influences that
poisoned the republican party at Chi
cago were in control at Baltimore. p"
The Temporary chairman said that
while Governor Wilson was known as
a good man" the prohibitionists
"are not here to elect good man,
but to kill the liquor traffic
After severely Griticising the dem
ocratic house of representatives for
it's failure to enact legislation prohib-
iting the shipment of liquor into pro-
hibition territory in the South Mr..
Howard burned his guns upon Mr..
Roosevelt.
Glow about the promised progress
sive Roosevelt party?" he asked.
1--WE already have two whiskey
parties and do not need another.
From the standpoint of the prohibi-
ZIONIST, by his record, public utter
ances and confessed personal habits
he is the least desirable of them all
Stole Panama Canal.
Posing as the thou shalt not
steal candidate because his partisans
were not preferred over President
Taft in the convention he brazenly
boasts that he stole the Isthmus Of
Panama from Colombia and let con.
gress debate about it afterward.' Il
the Chicago convention played the
same trick they got the cue from
him"

CROP CONDITIONS IMPROVE.
Cotton and Corn Are Both Growing
Rapidly Now.

Reports indicate that both corn
and cotton throughout this section
are growing in a very satisfactory
manner, and despite the fact that
crops were planted late and without
much preparation they are looking
we'll in many instances.
Cotton is somewhat behind, but
with continued sunshine and rains
when needed it will likely make a
good crop.
Corn as whole is not up to it's
usual standard, but the seasons have
been so favorable that it is probable
there will be a fine crop of corn
made.

Mr.. Leutz stated that the prospects

fact that most people are holding off

Saw Captain Leap.

Captain Smith was last seen on
the bridge just before the ship sank
leaping only after the decks had been
washed away. What became of the
man with the life preservers was
the question asked by many since the
disaster. Many of those with life
preservers were seen to 60 down, de.
spite the preservers, and dead bodies
floated on the surface as the last
boats moved away.
1t is stated positively that the
ships band gathered in the saloon
near the end and played Nearer My

refused to leave her husbands side,
and both persisted together.
Heard First Message.
Harold Cotton, a marine operator
of the Carpathia did not 60 to bed
at his usual time Sunday night, and
as result caught the first message
Of the Titanic's plight. He had been
relaying messages to the Titanic Sun
day night, and shortly after II o'clock
babe the Titanic good night. Just as
he was about to take the receiver OF
his head the G G. D. call sounded.
This was followed by words I'VE
have hit something, come at once"
Cotton at once communicated with
Carpathia's officers. and her course
was at once changed in the direction
Of tho Titanic at full speed, eighteen
knots, for the full distance Of sixty
miles intervening between the two
ships. Before Cotton could make re-
ply to the c. @. D. of the Titanic he
heard, I'm afraid we are sgone'.'
Cotton sent word of the coming of
the Carpathia. No further COM
munication was had with the doomed
ship Th> Iitanic's speed, % knots,
an hour, NIver slackened and she was
going at that speed when she struck.

passengers on the Titanic who saw

II was in the smoking room read
ing near bridge whist game at one
table," said Sllverthorne, when the
crash came. II said we have hit
something, and went out on the star
board side to look. None of us were
alarmed. 1t occurred to me that we
might have bumped some small craft.
Il went back in the smoking room
with the others. One Of the bridge
players had not left the smoking
room at all, and was waiting impa-
tiently for the others to come back
and resume the game. They returned
and took up their hands, and we were
all about settled down when an OIL.

to get into the boats.

had to stand aside, as other men did
