Automobile Smashed.

Down at the foot af a 15o-foot
about four miles
beyond Summit. with wheels
pointing skyward, twisted into a
thousand shapes and badly
smashed generally, lies what re-
mains of fine two-seated auto
mobile. the accident occurred
nearly a week ago while John
Meyer, a gunsmlth of Salem,
and three companions were en-
route from Corvallis to Newport.
This is probably the first time an
auto has ever attempted this tor
tuous road but the novelty of the
trip appealed to the romantic
natures of the gentlemen in ques-
ton and that is how the auto
mobile got into the scrape.
Everything went we'll until the
summit was reached and the de-
scent on the west side of the
Coast Range began. There are
some pretty steep grades and the
wagons have cut deep narrow
ruts. The view from the sum-
and beyond for several miles is
also one of surprising beauty and
it was while the auto-wagon was
putting and snorting down one of
these particularly bad stretches OF
road and the chauffeur was rub
bering round through the Can
yons that the spill took place.
The automobile ran into the
bank on the upper side of the
road and Meyer, who was doing
the steering act, twisted the crank
violently in the opposite direction.
The auto grunted a couple ot
times, rolled over on its back and
with a wild snort started down
the $50 foot grade, demolishlng
two rail fences, grinding dirt and
stones to powder and leaving
trail behind similar to Kansas
lcyclone. The dead auto is lying
at the foot of the grade still, ST.
lent and cold. The occupants
were not seriously injured, but
have been in no mood to make {
post-mortem examination of the
poor, old machine.

upon his face as smallpox, COM

happened. Now there is one relief. if

Sale OF ForsYth's Court
House.
lSneciaI to News and .ObserverN

(Specia! to News and Observer
winston Salem, n. c., oct. 28.-An
immense crowd of voters heard the
Joint discussion of political issues here
this afternoon between w. w. Kitchin
and G. A. Reynolds, Democratic and
Republican candidates for Congress,
respectively.
This is Mr.. Reynolds home, and he
had many of his friends and support
ers from the county to hear him. MI.
Kitchin was at his best and the drub-
bling he gave Winston-Salem's post
master won many friends and adj
mirers for the Democratic nominee.
1t is admitted by every conservative
man who heard the discussion that
Mr.. Reynolds is out of his class as a
speaker and campaigner.
Mr. Kitchin awoke enthusiasm and
stirred up a hornets nest in his reply
to Mr.. Reynolds on the question of
selling ForsythS court house to the
government for a public building.
Mr.. Kitchin showed that Spencer
Blackburn was representing this dis
trict when the bin was introduced in
Congress to sell the court house, and
that Blackburn for political effect,
held up the bin and prevented it
from passing the House. He charged
his opponent with endorsing Black
| burns action. This brought Mr.. Rey-
nolds to his feet. and he denied the
accusation. Mr.. Kitchin then read the
following words from a letter written
by his opponent and published in the
Winston Republican, May II, 1902:
'Mr. Blackburn held uD the bill as |
or any one else would have done.
Mr.. Kitchin called for copy of the
paper 1t was produced in a few
minutes and the sentence read was
found just as Mr.. Kitchin stated.
The graceful manner in which the
/ Democratic nominee proved his charge
was effective. and Mr. Reynolds show
ed that he had been knocked out of
the box" Mr.. Reynolds rejOinder was
! disconnected and had no force II
! he was not hacked" his face and
| language did him an injustice. Mr..
! Kitchin made votes for himself and
| the entire Democratic ticket in For
| syth. 1t means a certain victory for
! the party in this county. "As a cam
/ paign orator, kitchin has few equals
! anywhere" was the sentiment ex-
/ pressed by many after the discussion.
