Too long has Holy joe or sly king,

Bringing disaster, been your guide
The hour is striking Choose your

Bodies and souls your lords are buy

Surely the call OF women dying
Can reach the caves where you abide.
The hour is crying Choose your

In slums your children's cheeks are
paling,
From landlords threats your wives
are quailing,
Tentacled debts upon you glide
The hour Is wailing Choose your

Your corn and oil they are forestall-

While DER religion you are brawling,
And petty feuds your ranks divide
The hour is calling Choose your

Would Won desert us? Would YOU

BUSINESS IS
IMPROVING
EVERY DAY
HOTEL MEN, THE BEST BARON
ETERS, SAY THEY CAN SEE
NOTHING BUT PROSPERITY
AHEAD.

Hotel registers are pretty good in
dications to business coalitions, and
the registers of the local hotels show
an increased amount of travel within
the past three weeks. The proprie-
tors are feeling the effect of it, and
are satisfied that business conditions
are better here now than they have
been for some time.
The renewed activity in TIE oil
fields has a healthy effect upon this
city, and crop conditions were never
better than they are at present. The
recent rains have done wonders for
the growing crops, and the best farm
ers of the county said this morning
that if another rain does not come
until after the cotton is all picked
it will do no harm, as there is ample
moisture in the ground to sustain all
present crops and the wheat crop that
will be sown this fall.
Merchants are all well pleased with
the outlook and if nothing unforeseen
intervenes, this section is about due
for an unprecedented era of prosper
ity

DELINQUENT
LIST WILL Be
PUBLISHED
COUNTY TREASURER SAYS LAND
OWNERS ARE RAPIDLY COMING
TO THE FRONT WITH THEIR
TAXES.

County Treasurer Yell stated this
morning that the deliquent tax list
of lands in Carter county would be
published about the first of October,
and that all who desired that their
names should not appear .nereor, had
better come forward before that time
and pay their taxes.
Mr.. Yell stated that collections
were good, and he hoped that the list
would not be large, but, unless tax.
payers come forward rapidly in the
remaining time, it would be.
Mr.. Yell further stated that in ad-
vertising the list he would include all
lands that had been sold for taxes
in the past, but which had never been
paid out and a tax deed issued He
said there were many o. these OF
his list that must be Strengthened out
or they will be sold again.

NO MORE STRAW
BONDS WILL Be
ACCEPTED
COUNTY ATTORNEY SAYS EVERY
BOND APPROVED MUST BE
COLlECTABlE - LAW WILL BE
ENFORCED.

County Attorney Hardy stated this
morning that the subject of making
bonds for people involved in the
meshes of the law was Looked upon
altogether too lightly, and there had
always been a disposition, in years
past, to take almost any signature
on bond, so long as the name of
the party was well known throughout
the county, regardless Of the fact
that the signature was worth just
that much ink and paper. and no
more. He says in the future all
bonds are going to be ;.ir-tight and
gilt-edged, that can be collected i'm.
mediately upon forfeiture. and that
they would be forfeited Immediately
upon the case being called and the
defendant failing to answer.
Mr.. Hardy has already collected
several bonds forfeited ct the last
term of district court, and stated this
morning that he was going to do the
same at the September term if the
defendants failed to show. He states
that he is doing this to curb the prac,
tice of good men going On just any
ones bond who chances TO ask them.
\ few heavy bonds paid by the bonds
men win, he believes, make it harder
for a criminal TO secure tcnd in this
county in the future.

TEXAS RUINED
DAMAGE ESTIMATED TO RUN IN
TO MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
OPEN BoLLS PICKED CLEAN BY
WIND AND RAIN.

Austin, Tex. Aug. 1S.-Damage that
will run into millions of dollars has
been done to the cotton crop in Texas
by the storms of Monday and Tues
day. Reports from towns in central
Texas say that cotton open in the
bolls, has been blown out of the bolls
and beaten into the ground by the
heavy rains which accompanied it,
1t is said that so per cent of all the
cotton in this section was open and
that one-fourth to one-half of the open
cotton was lost. On this calculation
the damage will be from fifteen to
twenty-five per cent of the entire cot
ton crop of central Texas.

his own office before calling upon 9TH

NAVAL BOARD FINDS
SUBMARINES UNSAFE
Inquiry into Loss of IA Shows In
herent Defects in All Ships of
the z Type.

w ASHINGTON, Sept 1.-The preliml-
nary investigation into the cause OF the
sinking of the submarine F-4 on March %
last at the ENTRANCE of Honolulu harbor
has resulted IN a report to the navy de-
partment, which asserts that all four OF
the submarines of the + class, including the
Fl, had inherent faults, and were dlihcult
Ito keep IN repair, and that serious trouble
was experienced with their propelllng en-
glnes, electric motors, and storage bat
teries; in short, that they were IN a dan
gerOus condition for use on long dives like
the one on which the F4 met with the ac-
cident which wiped out the lives of her
officers and crew
Probably the worst feature of the FL
was the fact that sea water had at times
seeped INTO the storage batteries, causing
chlorine gas, which is quickly destructive
| of human life A comparatively small
amount of sea water can cause the hhera-
| ton of sufficient chlorine gas to asphyXlate
the crew of such submarine as the FL.
| The coverings over the storage batteries OF
| the FL were supposed to be practically
gastight and watertight. The investigation
has developed that this condition did not
obtain i'll the Fl and other vessels of that
class and that the so called battery decks
tseep into the batteries
The board of inquiry found that the
storage batteries of the Fl were always ir
a state of being more or less electrically
| grounded, due to leakage of electrolyte
and that these grounds have been OF
sufficient intensity to cause flame and the
tusing of electrical connections, also thai
these faults obtained in all four of tn,
boats of the F. class, of which there arr
three remaining, the FL, F2, and F-3
The F4's storage batteries evolved exces
sive quantities of hydrogen gas. Tn
fumes of hydrogen and acid We're notice
able inside the FL on long dives and OF
March 6 last, some days before the F.
was lost, there was hydrogen explosion
in that submarine, which damaged tn
battery deck and broke several separator
of the cells. The report just received b
the navy department asserts that the ''coT
ditions under which an explosion of hydro
gen Is always possible obtain in all tn
boats of the F. class.
The report shows that the officers of til
; F4 and other submarines of the + elias
> were aware of these defects and of tn
fact that it was dangerous to use thes
, vessels in this condition. but were diligen
= and alert in performing their duties an
showed no reluctance to use these subm;
rines.
