Twenty-three bodies have been recov ered from the debris carried down by the flood which swept Cabin Creek valley near here yesterday, following a cloudburst which left in its wake a death toll estimated at more than 100 persons and a property loss of at least $2,000,000. Because of the topography of the country State authorities .here expressed the belief that it would be several days before the full extent of the' flood could be ascertained. At least eight villages and mining ^settlements in the district were either wholly or partly destroyed while many others felt the effects of the storm more or less. Those practically j destroyed or badly damaged were Acme, Honda, Dry Branch, Miami, Sharon, Dames, Kayford and Eskdale Between Acme and Kayford GO persons are reported to have been, drowned. ? i 1 j Rescue parties have penetrated some distance above Cab^n creek junction and meager reports brought back by couriers and from the rail-1 roads, indicate that the loss of life A** been heavy. Persons driven rfom ithelr homes to the mountains are returning to find whole villages of limning cabins swept away, while dis-' tress and suffering is seen on every friand.

Finch, c I Chief of the Bureau of Investigation g of the Federal Department of Jus- i tice. t "The white slave trader is able to entrap almost any woman whom he s selects. No young girl is safe, es- c i pecially if she be attractive and be- r [longs to a large class who are com- t polled to seek work. The traffic has been so thoroughly systematized that with a weakness among girls to begin with, and the theatres, the skating rink and the dance hall as ^ his field, the slaver is almost certain to succeed in his diabolical schemes." ? o The town chain gang was filled up with nnur vn/n-iiifu lnot .vii nv. tt ivvi ui 10 ui.it ? ct'l\ WUUII j ^ several men .and another woman were, added to the number employed on the' I streets.

McInnes, is making in his candidacy for Congress from this district, and it is gratitying to be able to state that he has made a most favorable impression in every county; Confining himself in his speeches on the stump to a discussion of the issues and problems of the day; standing squarely on the Democratic platform, pledging loyal support to the Administration, Mr. Mclnnes has declined to be drawn into any personal controversy with either of his opponents, and has not indulged in abuse, ridicule or personalities. This is as it should be, and the sup port which Mr. Mclnnes is receiving is an indication of a healthy public sentiment. Darlington County may well be proud of the enviable reputation which Mclnnes has made for himself, and should give substantial evidence of its pride and appreciation by casting practically a solid vote for him on the 29th instant. The number of those who are rallying to Mclnnes' snnnnrf ir? fk A)? nAiintiof I ? v in V VUV1 WUII HCi"5 will doubtless stimulate his friends at home to redouble their effort. The editor of The News and Press has had the privilege of reading a number of private letters to Mr. McInnes and his friends, bringing the news that the tide of public sentiment is running strongly iVi his favor in all sections of his ditrict, which causes his friends to feel that his strength is even greater than they at first had hoped for. This support is the more gratifying from the fact that it is purely voluntary, and the fact that Mclnnes, who was practically unknown outside of this fOlint.V whon firef nn nounced his candidacy, has so conducted himself as to warrant enthusiastic efforts in his behalf on the part of good men and true in all parts of the district, is a high tribute to his character and worth. Now is the time for the citizens of Darlington to show their appreciation of what other counties are doing to honor one of their fellow-citizens. ?News and Press. 0 0 0 J.
