George Selvy, swing brakeman on the hill, had rather exciting experience last Wednesday morn ing shortly after 5 o'clock. He was going west on a freight, and when the train had reached the tunnel the car on which he was riding jumped the track, one set of wheels running on the ties. while the other turned sideways and bounced along, tearing up things in general. George says he was thrown flat on his face and lost his lantern, which rolled down the canyon. The conductor applied the air brakes and the train was finally stopped. That the es-' cape was most miraculous will be seen when it is stated that the car jumped the track in the tunnel, bounced across the trestle on the ties and for 35 rails length In all 700 ties were broken up and it was many hours before repairs were completed and traffic gain resumed.

THE TREAsURER'S REPORT

A very interesting article in the shape of the report of the treas urer of the town of Williams ap- pears in this issue of the NEWS, and is worthy of careful perusal. The report covers period of two years, from March 17, 1904, to March 12, 1906. In the report is much food for thought. It is there shown that the burden of taxation for the con- ducting of the towns affairs is borne by the business men of the town, and that other sources from which a goodly revenue could be derived are not looked after as they should be. For instance, the item appears in the report of $176 street taxes col lected in two years. As the street tax is two dollars year, this means that for 1904 and 1905 a total of A men for each year paid this tax. At the town election in 1904 total of 22S votes were boiled. Had all of these men paid the tax the town would have received $456 for each of these years, or total of $912; and it is safe to say that not all the men voted who are eligible to street tax.
 Then there is the item of $50 dog taxes collected in two years. This shows that the tax has been col lected on about twenty-five dogs per year. Itmay be only imagina- tion. but we were under the i'm pression that there were more dogs in Williams.
 Reverting to the street tax ques- tion we desire to say that some thing should be done to remedy the defect. The town tax is only $2, while the county road tax is $3. If the town does not intend to make this collection the county should be allowed to do so. We have a street tax receipt for each of the past two years, and are therefore entitled to a kick on the manner in which this department is conducted.
