HIT THE GRABBERS.-

HIT THE GRABBERS.-This is
written at parents of children, those
who hope to become parents and all
others sincerely interested in pos
terity. -.--. .
Plots have been concocted by the
fat, greedy ones of this generation to
rob posterity of the great essentials,
public lands and water power. In the
lands are fuel, fertilizers, lumber and
iron. In the water power are trans
portation, heat and light. To acquire
all these things, by hook or by crook,
is the purpose of interests that are al
ready fat through extortion, and that
purpose will be accomplished if the
people are needless.
It does not count that you sweat
and worry to educate your child, to
provide future comforts for it, to give
it better start in life than you had,
if you permit a class of human hogs
to control the necessities of life
It does not become you to roar
against the rising cost of living if you
permit monopolists to control the
fuel, food, clothing, housings and
transportation.
You are an abettor in the robbing
of your child if you keep quiet while
it's future is being stolen, and that is
what is being attempted in the US.

offers a plan by which your children
and grandchildren may get back the
property which your representatives
voted away, in so ,years-more legis-
lation, lawsuits, and very likely SUI

posterity, as if the people ever. got
back what was once granted private

guised and it seems likely that she
will seduce your U. S. senate and,
having once seduced, her way is open
for career of venality, in other wa

mineral land grants until your chill
dren and grandchildren have nothing
and the cost of their living, the oppor-
tunities for their progress are at the
mercy of rich class such as has

you can, say to yourself, that you will
do nothing; that you will confine your

DAMAGE IN PENSACOLA

New Orleans, July S.-No further direct information regarding storm conditions at Pensacola had been received here early tonight to- add to the brief wireless mes- sage picked up early today by the United Fruit company's station .here stating that no lives were lost in the Florida city and that extensive damage was done to the water front and buildings there by last Wednesdays hurricane. Local wire less stations were endeavoring through out the day and early tonight to again get in touch with the naval station at Pensacola, but owing to static conditions were unsuccessful. This mornings mes sage, which was the first direct word re- ceived from Pensacola since the storm, contained no detailed information.
 Reports from Biloxi Miss, tonight said that nothing had been heard from the seven schooners missing from there and Gulfport since the hurricane. T~irty-nine men made up the crews of the vessels.
 Dispatches from Meridian, Miss, today stated that passengers arriving there from Mobile declared that the extent of the storm at the latter place had been greatly minimized. According to stories credited to two prominent Meridian citizens. the water front at Mobile had been placed under martial law, there had been loot ing and that lonters had been shot. They also declared the water front was badly wrecked and that great damage was done to buildings
 The Louisville and Nashville railroad succeeded in getting a New Orleans pas senger train into Mobile today This train had been nlarooned since Wednesday a short distance south of Mobile. The Louis vile and Nashville also established its regular New Orleans-Mobile passenger train service tonight

OFFICIAL STATEMENT

London, July 9.-BritiSh infantry after a. fierce bombardment stormed line of trenches and gained footing in the Bois de Trones, according to the British of ficial statement issued late last night. An appreciable advance was also made in the neighborhood of Ovillers.
 The text reads: The fighting today has been principally on our extreme right flank, where further important successes were gained by our troops.
 ITO the east of Bernafay wood, after a fierce preliminary bonbardment we stormed d line of trenches and gained lodgment in strongly defended wood captured 15O prisoners and several ma chine guns.
 The French on our right flank greatly assisted our advance by the fire of their artillery. The enemy losses from the combined Anglo-French bombardment were severe
 "A strong German counter attack in mass, subsequently launched across the open against these captured positions, completely broke down under the fire of Is pounders and mailimetre guns. The enemy retired in disorder.
 Tn the neighborhood of Ovillers hand to hand fighting continues among the ruins of the village. But there, too, we made an appreciable advance.
 Despite the cloudy weather, our aero planes and kite balloons did some work, taking photographs and directing the fire of the batteries. A large explosion was caused in one of the enemy's ammunition depots, and bombs were dropped on his billets. One of our machines, although disabled, sustained a running fight of 70 minutes with three hostile aeroplanes and afterward landed safely in our own aero drome.
 With this exception, few enemy ma chimes were seen. and these were far be- hind bis own trenches

Mobile Again in Touch
 With the Outside World
After Two Nights of Darkness, City is Once More Normal Many Miraculous Escapes, But Not Single Death
 Story of Martial Law and Lootng
 Strongly Denied

fore train service to Montgomery on the Louisville and Nashville is resumed.
 Street cars operated as usual today Both telegraph companies had wires to Atlanta and other points. Telephone service is being restored. The debris from broken trees and fences is being re- moved from the streets. Stores were open all day and doing business as usual
 There has been no martial law. Former Spanish-American soldiers were sworn III as special officers to help the police guard the city while the lights were out and the police records do not show single case of footing or that any crime of any sort has been committed since the storm No looter has been killed. Not single citizen residing in Mobile or III the suburbs of Mobile was killed or ln- iured by the storm. The heavy property loss is confined to the sinking ot re" bay craft that can be easily and cheaply raised; to the bleaching of other cralt' which can be pulled into deep water. and to the flooding of the low parts ot the city This is not considered by the conservative business men to be mate rial and most of it is covered by ln- surance.

ALABAMA IN CENTER

Montgomery, July S.-All Alabama to- night is in the throes of the tropical storm that begun it's work last Tuesday afternoon at Pensacola and Mobile. This storm, according to the local weather bureau director, turned east from north east Louisiana and northwest Mississippi, and travelled rapidly to the interior of north Alabama. Tonight it was centered in the vicinity of Birmingham, where damage Is feared because of the fact that telegraph wires began to go down be- tween that city and Montgomery about o'clock.
 The torrential rains in the central part Of the state, and as far north as the natural watershed of the state, have caused all streams to rise rapidly. The Alabama Power company sent word to the local weather bureau that b gates would be opened Friday. in an endeavor to hold back as much of the flood waters as possible. Because of excessive rains late Friday afternoon it became necessary to open g of these gates. letting an un- expected volume of water into the rivers. Late this afternoon the power company notified Weather Observer Smyth that the gates are being closed in an en- deavor to hold the waters as much in check as possible, but excessive rains above are making the closing process sioW
