clare there has been loss of life in
that part of Louisiana inundated by
the Mississippi river, which rushed
through the breach in the levee at
Torras.
1t is said that motor boats sent to
take numerous persons from floating
house tops arrived too late. How
many persons perished cannot be de-
termined Refugees to the concen-
tration camps are hurried hither and
thither. Sometimes, families are
separated and persons have been re.
ported missing who simply have
been sent from one camp to another.
Swept From House Tops.
Nevertheless, large numbers of the
refugees claim they have seen entire
families swept from 'iouse tops. Lead
ers Of the rescue corps admit that sew
eral times they have sent motor boats
to points where families had taken
refuge on the roof of house and that
when the boat arrived its crew found
only the building, buffeted about by
currents, and half its roof surface sub
merged. Appeals for help reached
here last night from Lettsworth, dir.

reported to be in imminent danger of
drowning.
Town After Town Submerged.
The house in which they had TAX

its foundation and was being tossed

There are at least 1000 persons
! who remain to be rescued from the in.
undated country west of Lettsworth
and Batchelor.
Some of them are drifting about on
hastily constructed RATS. The crevasse
water is spreading at rapid rate,
irundating sections of Pointe Coupee
Parish, which never before have been
reached by overflow. Town after
town is being swept by the muddy
waters.

Taft INVADES HOME STATE
Two Weeks Campaign Tour to
Capture Ohio Delegation
to Chicago.
<By Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)

| <By Special Leased Wire TO New Mexican)
| Athens, Ohio, May 6.-President
/ Taft entered his third primary fight
today with Ohios forty-eight delegates
to the national Republican convention
to be elected on May q as the prize.
Mr.. Taft will make speeches in several
southern Ohio towns.
Taft Attacks Brown.
Athens, Ohio, May 6-President Taft
in his speech here, accused Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt of consorting with
Ohio's only Boss" Walter Brown. The
President attacked Brown, who as
chairman of the Republican state cen
tral committee of Ohio, is the acknowl-
edged leader of the Roosevelt forces
| in the state, in his first speech of the
day at Nelsonville.
| Leaders and Bosses.
I "Mr. Roosevelt says | am in favor
of an aristocracy of the bosses," said
the President. Now if you go to work
counting bosses, you will find just as
many on his side as on mine, only
when man is on his side he becomes
a political leader, and when he is on
my side, he is a boss.
| After More Power.
! You have Walter Brown in this
state. He is the only active boss in
commission in Ohio and he is hustling
around to get Roosevelt elected with
view of enlarging his power"
Asks for Simple Justice.
| Nelsonville, Ohio, May 6.-In his
speech today, here the President eX-
! planned why he came to Ohio. Il am
not asking a favor because am a son
of Ohio, but l ask for simple Justice, -
he said.
! Mr.. Taft again attacked Colonel
! Roosevelt and said he had been forced
against his will to enter the present
campaign by Mr.. Roosevelt's misrepre.
Sentations.
! Rooseve!tian inconsistencies.
First, Mr.. Roosevelt said he
wouldn't accept the nomination, then
he said he wouldn't be a candidate
Now he is candidate, a candidate
for sure said Mr. Taft. but he was
not contented with an ordinary cam.
tpaign. He found it necessary to at
tack my administration and me per
sonally.
"The less | said, the more he said
and he attacked me with unfounded
charges in every way. | waited a
month, and then because of the cause
| represent, | decided to reply to him
/ had to fight and I am here to do it. .
Child Labor Bill Among Achievements
Mr.. Taft gave short review of the
achievements of his administration
pointing to the railroad BILL the pos.
tai savings bank bill, the mine bureau
bill, the child labor bill, and others
which he declared showed as much
true progressiveness as any legisla-
tion enacted since the civil war.
Admits He Made Mistakes.

President, 81 have done nothing in of
fee for which l can justly be con
demned. | have not been perfect and
have made mistakes, but I have been
striving to carry out the pledges of the
Republican party"

HEAVY VOTE
IN Maryland
Democratic Situation Clouded
But Wilson Appears to
Lead in Fight
CLARK AND HARMON COMBINE
Conservatives and Money Trust
Together Against New
Jersey Governor.
lBy Special Leased Wire to New MexIcanl

iBy Special Leased Wire to New Mexican
| Baltimore, Md, May 6.-The Mary
land primary election today will deter
mine whether President Taft or Theo
dore Roosevelt will capture the state
| sixteen votes at the Republican ma
| tional convention, but owing to a pc
culiarity Of the Maryland law there is
a possibility that the complexion OF
the delegation to the Democratic con.
vention will not be determined until
| the state convention.
Under the new law, the candidate
that wins majority of the 129 dele
gates chosen for the state convention
will get all the national delegates also.
Since there are but two candidates for
the Republican presidential preference
the division of the state delegates
must result in a majority for one or
the other.
Democratic Situation clouded.
| Uncertainty may cloud the Demo-
cratic situation, because there are
| three candidates in the field, Speaker
Champ Clark, Judson Harmon and
| Governor Woodrow Wilson. If none
of the three Democratic candidates re-
ceives a majority of the state dele
| gates, the contest for national dele
gates may be fought out at the state
convention. On the first state conven-
tion ballot, the delegates instructed
today for each of the three candidates
will be bound to give them their
votes, but if this ballot fails to result
/ in a choice. no one ventures to say
| what will happen. The belief is eX-
pressed that the candidates with the
smallest number of votes will release
| his delegates who thus will be free to
vote for either of the candidates in
the race.
Heavy Vote PolIed.
! The voters came out in a way that
| supported the predictions of intense
interest. Wilson leaders sent dis.
patches to the country districts an
nouncing that the New Jersey govern.
or would carry Texas and that the
result in that state would affect the
primaries here. They are urging vot
ers not only to give him their person
al preference, but to vote for dele
gates to the state convention known
to favor Wilson's candidacy.
Harmon and Clark in Cahoots.
| Statements published today declare
that a vote for Governor Harmon is
practically a vote for Speaker Clark
! The Harmon organization has desig-
mated no state delegates and the Will
son people fear that, unless their can
! Gidate wins a clear majority of dele
gates at the primaries through the
popular preference vote, the delegates
/ instructed for Clark and Harmon will
combine against him. The state organ
Zation, which is backing Clark, has
complete list of delegates on the bal
lots in nearly every county and legis.
| lative district.
Both the Taft and Roosevelt organi
cations also have practically complete
lists of delegates on the tickets and
whichever wins can count upon dele
cations in both the state and national
conventions bound to its candidate by
personal allegiance as well as the pref
erence instructions.

The object in publishing the above
figures is to afford each property owner
reliable proof as to the very small
amount each one will have to pay to-
ward the cost of paving intersections
1t means that the person owning A
home worth One Thousand Dollars will
be obliged to pay only eightyfour cents
each year, for period of ten years, and
after that time, the assessments will
slightly increase in order that the prin-
cipal Indebtedness may be retired, but
within ten or twenty years, Moscow
property should SO greatly enhance in
value that the principal Indebtedness of
$4,000 will be retired without increasing
the present rate of taxation.
In view of the excellent pay roll which
will be created locally by this municipal
work and the vast amount of employ
mcnt which will be afforded Moscow
residents Git being generally stated by
paving companies that fully 20 per cent
of the total contract price is paid out
locally for material supplies and services
