There were fifteen men aboard the lighter at the time, engaged In plac ing the ammunition aa It was csrrled from the supply ship. The flaring powder gave them no chance to es cape to the Culgoa and they all Jump ed overboard to save their lives.

Since then I have been in 'ormed that our county treasurer, Mr. Foseph P. Tayloe, has made the state nent that I have not voted the Demo cratic ticket In six years. This state nent la not correct. I have never voted any other than Jie Democratic ticket In my life. Mr. rayloe knows that I have been re garded as good enough Democrat to lav* been a member of the Demo cratic Executive Committee of this :ounty. . i objett to being read out of the [>arty by Mr. Tayloe becatfte I favor nmethlng In the Interest of the party which Interferes with his desire to continue In offlce. I helped to put Mr. Tayloe in office. I received no reward for that. Am I now to be punished because I am willing to help put some other good Democrat !n office? Mr. Tayloe has <. held the position of county treasurer for about eight years and has received something over twelve thousand dollars (911.* 000.00) from the offlce. No other Democrat has ever been or has ever had the chance to be treasurer of the county since that offlce was separated from that of sheriff. Is the test of Democracy to be whether one Is will ing for Mr Tayloe to continue to hold this profitable office against all other Democrats? , Does Mr. Tayloe deny that occasional changes In office holders Is advisable for the sakcf of /harmony and good government. Did not Mr. Tayloe htmHelf vote and work for a change in the offlce holders of his home town last year I.uv-p the ground that such chance* wTfcdvtsiabie? V believe some change is needed to 1 prevent los# to our party in this county. Under the present system It has been losing ground. We cast 2,983 Democratic votes for Governor In this county, ten (10) years ago. Six (?) years ago only 770 Republican votes were cast for Governor. Two years ago Mr. Tayloe received only 1,879 votes and bis Republican opponent received 1,269. Here is an actual loes of over one thousand (1.000) | Democratic votes in this county, not making any allowance for the In crease In population and a gain of Ave hundred (500) Republican votes. In 1908 the Democratic vote in the State was' over twenty thousand (20,000) more than 1904, and yet In Beaufort county the Democratic vote was less In 1908 than In 1904. The Increase In Republican votee can be accounted for by our county's Increase In population; but how can 'you account for the loes in Demo cratic votee? They stay at home, take no interest, see no chance for any but the few who already hold the offices, and are tired of hearing the 'same old song year after year. When I put my party and my par ty's welfare shead of my personal friendship for men I am as good a Democrat as one who would want to continue to capture the offices and re wards In the face of this steady drain on and Iobs to the party. This article is written In justice to myBelf and with no feeling against I any man. I had made no personal fight on any candidate. I am not personally unfriendly to any of the present officers, and would not have written this article had not my Dem jocracy been attacked. Respectfully, W. F. W INSTEAD. July 22, ltio^ NARROW ESCAPE Party In (jusollne Launch Came Near Being Drowned. Messrs. 2. M. Potts, Thomas Rob | bins and Ralph Nowell are still talk ing about theif trip to Portsmouth. In. C., and the rough experience they encountered on the turbulent Atlan tic. Mr. Potts is a great admirer of the briny deep, and prior to his re cent adventure was never happier than when sailing on its bosom. 8ince his return and he tredB terra firms In safety he has almost decided that land is preferable to water ? espe cially when old Neptune' is disturbed and unruly. Mt. Robblne, while not so talkative as his comrades, has done no little tnlnking since his return. They had a perilous trip and come near being consigned to a watery grave judging from the account as told to a News man. One day while at Portsmouth. Cap tain Whealton, a former resident of Washington, kindly consented to take Messrs. Potts, Robblns and Nowell to the wreck Aroyo, a large steamship wrecked off the beach about six months ago. The vessel was 376 feet long and carried a crew of 80, and was loaded with five thousand tons of Iron ore. The pa'rty left Portmouth In Captain Whealton's gasoline launch. There were six In the party. When about six miles off lsnd and lacking at least four miles from be ing to the wreck on account of the tieavy sea a hole was knt?cked in the >oat. The wind was from the south west and blowing a gale. The water, lotwithstandlng that every one was balling, gained headway fast, so It was decided to turn around and make for the shore. In trying to accom plish this the engine was put out of rbmmlsslon. To quote My. Potts the :lme had arrived to "sail, pull or lrown." Three of the party began lulling with all their power for land; two handled buckets in a way to com mand admiration while the skipper , ttood ground at the wheel. By hard ppork they Anally succeeded in getting back over the bar, and this is the ;ime where Mr. Potts said he desired loraethlnR to appease his appetite. The life saving crew saw the perilous condition of the psrty and came to their rescue, doing all within their >owor for their comfort. Messrs. Potts. Robbln# snd Nowell presented ?ach one of the life saving crew with louvenir* of tfie trip ? relics from the wrecked ship given thetn by Captain Whealton. It was a narrow eecaps. ktid since their retain they have been [he recipients of congratulations from their friends. Burly Bill will make you laugh and *111 also mite a lump oome in yoar throat.
