PE LOSS IS ENORMOUS —*— Late Information Puls tire Figures at Twenty-Five Millions DEATH LIST STAGGERING The News From Chile and Other South American Republics Bring Untold Stories of the Aw ful Destruction. There continues confusion of re ports as to the magnitude of the dis aster to Valparaiso caused by the earthquaks shocks which began oil Thursday, August 16 ail'd continued at frequent intervals throughout that and the next two days. Dispatches received Jiere this eve niug state that a moderate estimate of the fatalities is 2,000 and that tile property loss may boas high as $25,000,000, which latter is greater, than the loss at Sail Francisco owing to the earthquake and the fire which devastated that city last April. A refugee who arrived at Santaigo places the known dead at 100 and other messages indicate that, the first reports were greatly exaggerated. Dispatches to the state department at Washington places the fatalities •it 500. These conflicting statements at this time cannot be adjusted, it is evident that even yet confusion and panic prevails and until order is re stored it will be impossible to ascer tain with accuracy the loss of life am. property. The dwellings in the city have been abandoned by the inhabitants who are existing as best they can in the plazas and streets. Food is already scarce and high, wather for drinking purposes, is lacking and disease is feared. The government is doing an it can to bring in relief. The crip pling of the railroads leading into Val pariosa continue a factor in the situa. tion for an indefinite period, relief sup plies can only be obtained through other means of transportation, the seaboard affording the best of these, At Santiago many of the best pub lic and private buildings were wreck ed- The loss of life there was aug mented by the panic which seized the people .many ol whom threw them selves from the balconies of their homes. The destructive force of the earthquake warn distributed over a large area of the country, many towns sustaining serious damage. Washington, Aug. 20. —The advices from the earthquake zone continue to bring bad news. A teiegiam from Dima, [Peru, received this evening, states that Hie entire island of Juan Fernandez or Rotiitison G , 'usoe island lias been wiped out. On this isianu was a penal settlement belonging to Chile. Washington, Aug. 20.—The war de partment has received a telegram from Secretary Hoot at Buenos Ayres announcing that lie has left that city on account of the awful calamity in Chile. The secretary stated that he only limited his visit to a sim ple call of condolence. Valparaiso, Aug. 20 —The latest re ports from ait sections of the earth quake districts continue to bring in terrible stories of loss of life and property. The death list has gone into the thousands and the property loss is estimated at over $25,000,000. AT WOOOBINE The Farmers Institute to Hold an Interesting Meeting There on Sept. 8.

OUTLET IS NOE AN ISSUE —t— friend of Ihn Congressman Asserts That No fight is on Him SOME VERT PLAIN FACES The Politicians, Whistling to Keep up Their Courage, Are Trying to Force Congressman Brant ley to take Brunt of it. Mr. Editor; An effort is being made so strenuously to transfer the issue between Hoke Smith and the brotherhood of candidates” for the governorship to a fight between Hok.s Smith and Col. Brantley in Bruns wick that it: is well to ask ourselves: wherein the antagonism arises? Mr. Smith has made no fight on Col. Brantley. Mr. Smith’s friends in Glynn county are supporting Mr. BranTToy, just as they did in the past and just as they will do in the future, because of his benefit us a worthy congressman to bis home town and its interests as the only seaport in his district. This would be so aside from Iris personal popularity at home. Then, where l.<? the issue? zbTlien partisans of Mr. Estill in the county will surely find it difficult tn explain wily Cos. Brantley needs "vin dication'’ because of the fact that a, majority of his friends and supporters do not take to Ills individual choice of the gubernatorial candidates. it is the purest esseuce of humbug gery that was ever attempted to be worked upon intelligent voters. When the point is reached that a voter must follow his friend ip office in supporting ids Individual frienu seeking office lie no longer occupies the .position of friend bat becomes the abject tool, liable to discount when needed. Col. Brantley may ’aivj ms p-iliM t-al enemies but it Is not because Hoke Smith Is a candidate for governor and Brantley is tor another candidate for that office. it is rather a discredit to any man’s intelligence and independence that he should be appealed to to subordinate Ids political convictions to those of Ids friend and while in- ..ha i/e ol the Eleventh district to Col. Brantley’s personal preference would be pleasing to any man, yet we do not bedeve that Col. Brantley would ask such sub serviency just for self glorification. No ,we are going to vote for Hoke Smith and most of us are going to stick to Brantley, probably when he finds that the most sinister motives against him will show up In the house hold of his present most urgent fol lowers. The issues in this campaign cannot l:e‘ void'u:.<-d in any such manner. Brantley’s Friend. Have enough civic pride to vote against Estill. Ho has never been the friend of Brunswick save when he wanted her votes. SOUTHERN'S ANNUAL CHEAP RATES TO MANY POINT Excursion Will Leave Brunswick o August 15.
