SPIKES LOOSE
TIES ROTTEN
Riding Rails of Death or Great
Northern

Spokane, Wash, Aug. 2l.-Dan-
gerous conditions we're found to exist
by Spokesman Review represen-
tative, who walked over the Great
Northern tracks from Colbert jun
ction to Elk, since the Milan wreck,
for the purpose of making a careful
examination OF the condition Of the
road. In addition to a general IL
spection, careful examination was
made of more tnan % different rails,
the soundness of the ties tested with
heavy Ratchet and the spikes closely
scrutinized to ascertain whether
they we're doing their part toward
holding the rails In place.
There are some stretches of track
on the 10 miles between Colbert and
Elk which are In fairly good Condi-
ton, and there are also places over
which II looks like suicide to at
tempt to run a train at fast speed.
The greatest fault with the track Is
the looseness of spikes, nearly so per
cent of which are either OF no use at
all in their present condition, or are
partly worked out of the tie, so as
not to hold the rail firmly In place.
The dangerous condition OF the
road may be summed up In the fol-
lowing: Twenty one rails selected
at random showed 335 spikes out Of
total Of 6S6 to be either mt touch
ing rail at all, or to have worked up
until the head was clear of rail base.
This is nearly so per cent of loose
spikes.
Ties examined under 20 rails sell
ected at random show that out Of 323
ties l47 we're bad, either from being
cut through by thsrFaiis or dsOayed
so as to be unsafe. Some Of these
ties we're so soft that hatChet
could be buried in them to tine
handle at a blow. Others were
either season cracked or shattered by
the weight Of heavy engines into
several pieces, the spikes merely rest
Ing in the cracks.
Track ran In a wave before a heVay
train, the oscillation of the rails
being from two to four inches as the
wheels passed over them.
Many ties so loose that stepping
on one end would cause far end to
rise and strike rail base.
Uneveness IN roadbed, causing
weight of train to rest on few ties,
cutting them through.

KNOCKS OUT BOOZE MAN

There appears to be a spirit of re-
form throughout the county of
Kootenai and the state of Idaho.
Since the court upheld, yesterday, the
action of the county commissi oners
in denying a license to w. II. Lopez,
Of Bellgrove, for a saloon. the com
missers have refused an applicant Of
Rose Lake a license. The reasons
are practically the same, there being
large lumber plant there and the
lack of police protection. II Is also
claimed that the extremely thirsty
may walk two and one half miles to
Lane and quench their thirst II Is
said the courts action will affect nu-
merous little towns and localities
throughout the county.
Not only are the residents and
officials struck by the moral wave
but 1t is understood the lumber com.
panies generally are fighting the To-
cation of saloons near their camps
and mills, alleging that numerous
mishaps are directly attributable to
the saloon. In the evidence ysster-
day, B. r. Lewis claimed the death
of certain man who lost his life
while in the employ Of the company
and for which the company was
sued, losing the case, was directly
traceable TO whiskey. IL was the
lumber company at Rose Lake that
fought the saloon the hardest before
the county commissioners. There
are several licenses applied for,
which will be considered by the COM
missioners in the near future and 1t
is stated IN the majority OF cases,
they will be denied for the above

PROTEST STILL
ENACTED UPON

It was talked around town yesterday
that the Honolulu Baseball League has
decided to hold up the Diamond Heads
protest filed last Saturday relative to
Eddie Desha having signed to play
with two teams. The reason given is
that the league can't be bothered with
petty protests.
If the league has taken any such
stand, and it is hard to belief that it
has, the best interest of baseball win
suffer. The Desha matter is one which,
if ignored by the league, is almost GER
tain to crop up again with other teams.
The affair should be thoroughly thresh-
ed out and definitely settled one way
Or another, and that as speedily as
possibly.
