ed Mr. Harry Q Bowie, as member
Of the Board Of Supervisors Of Elec-
lions for this County, to succeed Mr..
Price Cray, who resigned sometime
ago No better appoinement In our

Bowie is a clean, honest and energetic
young man who will give to the oflice
al Of his attention and fulfill the duties
with fidelity and trast. lie has for the
lastiour years been postmaster at La
Plata and made an excellent record
and not only enjoyed the confidence OF
the patrons of the Office but stood high
in estimation OF the Post Off ,e
Department. A change in the admin
istration, however, brought about his
displacement as was expected, but we
believe the democrats would have made
no mistake had they retained him 10
the position.

 Crew Is Alive.
RESTING BENEATH
 300 FIT. OF WATER
Accident Occurred on Board Diver on March 1, the Announcement Made YeSterday-V Valuable Time Lost in
 Attempting Rescue.

Honolulu, H. l.. March 21.-Th } cables which were fastened to the wrecked submarine F-4 gave way late this afternoon and the diver again plunged to the bottom of the ocean.
 There is now no hope that Lieuten- ant Ede or any member of the crew will be taken out alive.
 Fifty fathoms Of water now cover the F4 and it will be an extremely difficult task to bring the boat to the surface. According to naval experts, the submarines of the F type are tested for a dive of 200 feet. Theor- etica!ly. they are supposed 10 go Gown 300 feet. but there is lo way of testing castings at that deptH
 When located. the F-4 was in 320 feet of water, which makes it al- most a certainty that the diver s badly damaged.
 It became known today that the F-4 was the victim of an accident on March 4. According to this report a battery exploded aboard the diver, causing serious damage.
 Rear-Admiral Charles B. Moore. com -nandant of the naval station, said the accident did not disable tht PA.

Carelessness Costs Lives.

Washington, March 27.--Navy de- partment officials are concerned over newspaper dispatches from Honolulu. which seem to indicai :: that needless delay was shown by the authorities in the search for the sunken submarine F-4, and an in- vestigatiOn ".iI be made Q dct 'rm- inc if this is correct.
 The news and official disnatcn from Honolulu. which must hava been sent from there early in the evening, :eporte.: that the subm Ar.ne had been locate l., and that d .oe/age had been s;'i to Pearl Har5oI avai station for a ,iredge. carrying n,wer- ful cranes. This, however, did not arrive on the scene until earl, this morning. Efforts to raise the slb- marine were then begun.
 If it turns out to be true that the workers had to bait until ,'iis morn ing for the arrival of the crane, it means there was a delay .:I er;ui l2 hours which could have bee obviated if the officers in charge ot the rescue work had displayed fore sight though to have the dredge on hand.
