400 DIE IN BIG STORM
GALVESTON SAFE AFTER TIDAL
WAVE-GREAT DAMAGE.
Other Cities Along the Texas Coast
Are in Ruins and Property Loss
Many Millions.

San Antonio, Tex, Aug 19.-Pro-
tected by the sea wall, which with
stood the battering of the waves hurled
against it by the force of a wind
ranging from ninety to 124 miles an
hour, Galveston escaped the hurricane
which broke over that city Monday
night and Tuesday morning with a
minimum loss of life and relatively
small loss of property.
The heaviest loss of life will be
found to have been sustained by the
shipping and dredges anchored out in
the bay. The total, including those
lost in the city, from ships and in the
lowlands Of Galveston, may reach $50
to 300. The exact number. however,
probably never will be known. With
the deaths reported in Virginia Point,
Texas City, La Porte, Houston and
other nearby coast cities, the grand
total will approximate 400 lives.
1t Is estimated that the property
loss at Galveston may reach $10,000.-
900, but in the face of this the citi-
zens are jubilant, for the sea wall,
built at a tremendous cost following
the great storm of 1900, has done Its
duty and stands intact. Great holes
have been torn in the pavement OF
the boulevard just inside the sea wall
for practically the entire distance
from Seventh to Nineteenth streets,
and in places the wall itself has been
undermined These are things which
can be remedied, however
Outside of Galveston the property
loss is estimated at from s30,O00,00O
to 52.000,000.

Hawail,s nPronaaanda.n

Democrats who have returned from
the interesting trip to Hawaii are
somewhat aggrieved because they feel
that while they were invited by the
Hawaiian legislature to visit the is
land and ascertain for themselves all
its needs, they found themselves con-
fronted with a very definite sugar
propaganda when they arrived.
The Democratic members of con.
gress who made the trip apparently
thought that the Hawaiian hosts would
dwell upon such needs as fortifica-
tions and greater educational facilities.
improvement of the harbors and vari-
ous commercial needs.
Why sheuld the Democratic con-
gress feel aggrieyed, however. merely
because Hawaii placed greater stress
upon her greatest need? The free
sugar clause of the tariff bill. which is
t. become effective next year. Will
work irreparable harm to Hawaii. Be-
sides this one problem, all the others
probably seem unimportant to the peo-
pie of Hawaii.
1t was natural that Hawaii should
adopt the practical method of invit-
ing the members of congress to the
island to see the situation for them
selves. There could be no fairer or
better method of arousing interest In
the situation in the island. The meth
DDS of Hawaii will be described as q
political propaganda. or simply frank
and honest appeal for protection, ac-
cording to the standpoint from which
the matter Is approached.

KNOW HOW TO VOTE
People Will Make No Mistake
Next Year.
Depression Throughout the Country
as a Result of Democratic Power
Sure to Have It's Effect
on the Elections.

A correspondent to the American
Economist. writing from Quincy, Ill,
sounds the right note when he says:
By a federal constitutional provi-
sion, the tariff making power is given
to congress, and there is where it be-
longs. The house of representatives
Is the strong bulwark of popular gov
ernment. and our congressman should
be made to shoulder the responsible
ity for progress or depression at
home. This depression is due wholly
to the Democratic administration of
our affairs, and the previous free trade
administrations have all been just
the same, but the people have been
educated now and they should know
how to vote next year. Let there be
no mistake in returning a safe major
ity to congressman committed to a
strong protective tarih, and business
will Immediately readjust itself to a
prosperous basis. whichever party
is in control, either through congress
or tariff commission, will. dominate
the question of high or low tariff.
SO the best way is to be careful about
all candidates elected in 1916. and
know that they are In favor of the
United States controlling its own bust
ness
The period of uncertainty or strad
/ die on the tariff question is past. Men
who seek nomination and election in
next years congressional campaign
will have to stand up and be counted
as simon-pure protectionists Similar
ly as to the presidential ticket. The
year 1916 is going to be bad year
] for halfbreeds.

For several years there has been an
argument for the confinement of the

where their influence will not be felt.
This plan has been followed in the i'm

The younger lads are sent to the in

Have State Park.

At the close of the state fair this
year the fair grounds will be kept
open permanently as a public park
for the use and enjoyment of the peo-
pie of Columbus and the whole state.
The new state board of agriculture
has decided to convert the grounds
into state park. It did so at the re-
quest of the Columbus Chamber of
Commerce. A number of times in
past years the chamber has endeav-
ored to have this done, tut without
success, until the present board took
charge of the grounds.
Details are to be worked out by a
committee of the board and the Off
GERS Of the chamber. 1t is probable
that the city will be asked to do the
necessary policing of the park and
may bs asked to defray part, of the
cost OF maintenance. This cost will
not be large. The park is to be made
available for farmers gatherings and
for meatings of any organization OF
citizens of Ohio. Probably a public
comfort station will be built and re
freshment stands will be erected
Permanent exhibits of the board OF
agriculture and the state industrial
commission may be installed.
