II Is Up to the Great Northern

The Wenatche Valley, one of the
most fertile and lovely spots on the
globe, and the town and the Vale Of
Cashmere, the one bright and particu-
lar gem of all this fertility and lowell
ness owes in a broad sense much Of
what it is today to the Great Northern
railroad. Admitting all this and count
ing this valley and beautiful little city
as it is today as largely the creature OF
this mighty corporation, what right le-
gally and morally has this creator over
creatures. This corporation in further
ance of it own interest has arbitrarily
turned the course of the Wenatchee
river from flowing peacefully in a nor
therly direction by the town of CASH
mere to direct easterly course and il
is only diverted north around the town
by barriers set up by the people.
Much damage has already resulted
to people adjacent to the town and
more is likely to result unless immedi-
ate steps are taken to prevent it.
Should not the city appeal to the rail
road for aid to help avert this possible
calamaity, and if they fail to gain theil
point by asking what is fair, then take
concerted legal action as to what theil
rights are and what the liability of the
railroad company is.-Cashmere Re
cord.

KILLED NEAR PfSHASTIN
Loaded Lumber Wagon Passed Over His
BOdy-lived Only an Hour

While hitching a team of horses to a
logging wagon near Peshastin last Fri
day, William Cox lost his life.
Cox had been employed in the Sche
bic lumber mill, between Cashmere
and Peshastin, as sawyer, for the past
few months. About ten o'clock last
Friday morning, says the correspondent
of the Wenatchee World, he started
to hitch team to heavily loaded log
wagon standing on a sloping hillside.
He had led the horses across the
wagon-tongue and was reaching for the
neckyoke when the team started to
run, knocking Cox down. The heavy
wagon, facing down hill, was Jared in
to motion by the plunge of the horses,
and before Cox could recover his feet
he was struck again by the moving
wagon. Two wheels passed over his
PROSTATE body, badly crushing him and
rendering him unconscious.
The injured man was removed to
camp where he died a little more than
an hour later.
The dead man was about So years OF
age and came to the Wenatchee valley
two years ago from the Palouse coun-
try, and lived with his family on Pine
Flat He had been actively associated
with the revival meetings being con
Quoted by the Church OF God a few

WaterviIIe Press Editor Hands the Great
Northern Bunch

1t appears that the editor Of the
Press was a passenger on the train that
was wrecked seven miles west of here
on the 22d of June and thus writes
about it:
No. l OF Great Northern going
west was wrecked about four miles east
of Chiwaukum Saturday afternoon. The
second engine, together with the mail,
express and baggage cars, were thrown
into the Wenatchee river. Fortunately
nobody was seriously injured. The
editor was on the train (riding on a
paid ticket by the way) and had op-
portunity to investigate the cause OF
the wreck. 1t was due, without ques-
ton, to the rottenest piece OF railroad
track mans eyes ever gazed upon.
The ties at the point OF the wreck were
so rotten that they actually crumbled
between ones fingers. The wreck
was caused by spreading rails and on a
rather sharp curve. There were no
braces for the rails at the point and a
spike driven into a rotten tie was relied
upon to hold heavy passenger train.
After the wreck and after an examina-
ton OF the ties torn up by the wreck
the editor investigated the condition ol
the track below the wreck and found
all the ties rotten, the spikes pulled up
until in places the rail was quarter o
an inch above the tie, and about one
out OF dozen OF the spikes so loose
that they could almost be drawn with

of the Great Northern track between
Wenatchee and Everett is in a like
condition. There is no excuse for this
condition of things, as timber is plen-
