-old boy of Andrew johnson, was
instantly killed yesterday be-
tween one and two o. clock on the
Mill Greek trestle by passenger
train No. 9, in charge of engineer
Tom Tarpley.
George and his brothers, Charlie
and Donald, were playing on the
trestle near Flat Rock when the
accident occurred.
The train being a little
late, was running at rapid speed,
and there being a short curve in
the road at that place, the en-
gineer was not able to stop the
train after seeing the boy, before
having run over him.
Georges two brothers saw the
train in time to escape and they
tried to warn George of it's coming
but didn't succeed.
The trestle at that place was
about Is feet high, but the train
didn't knock the boy off. His
head was badly disfigured also
his body.
His parents were living near
the railroad and were soon at the
scene. The body was brought
on the train to Hendersonville
placed in the care of undertaken
Stepp.
Burial took place at Pleasant
Hill cemetary this morning.
Hendersonville, N. c. Aug, @
George Johnson, the nine year
old son of Andrew Johnson, who
lives between Hendersonville and
Flat Rock was killed by Southern
train No. 9 Asheville bound,
shortly after two o'clock this
afternoon. The boy with two COM
panions is said to have been play
ing near one of the sharpestcurves
between Hendersonville and Flat
Rock when the whistle announced
the approach Of the train. John
SON S playmates managed to clear
the track, but it is thought that
the little victim became panic
stricken and his body was ground
beneath the wheels of the train
which, despite the engineers
efforts could not be stopped in
time to avert the catastrophe.
The body was taken into Hen
dersonville and after being dress
ed by the undertakers it was TAX
en- back to Flat Rock on No. 10.
Much sympathy is felt for the
stricken family. -Asheville Citi-

THE RECEIVER IS
MAKING PROGRESS
AFFAIRS OF THE DITCH COr1PANY
WELL IN HAND---NEW SURVEY.
AND ESTIMATES MADE.

Lee E. Wolgemuth, receiver of the
Bitter Root District Irrigation COM
pa ny, last Saturday filed with the
cl ERIK of the court report showing the
general claims against the concern.
Itemized claims to the amount of
$10S, ,029.7S are approved and recon-
mended for payment, while other
claims, chiefly for damages, sales
commissions, ETC., aggregating $4S-
5000, are disapproved by the re-
ceiver.
Meantime corps of surveyors under
the direction of Engineer A. c. WALL
bridge has about completed new
survey of the big ditch and exhaus-
tive estimates as to the probable cost
of completing the project.
Receiver Wolgemuth now has the
affairs of the company we'll ia hand
and it is expected that the assets of
the company will soon be disposed of,
the claims settled, and, it is hoped by
the local public, active work on the
project renewed.

BOULDER VICTOR
IN THE DEBATE
THE HAMILTON HIGH SCHOOL
LOSES IN A REMARKABLY
STRONG CONTEST.

Prof. ]. v. Owens and the Hamilton
High school debating team arrived
home Monday from Boulder, where
they suffered defeat in the debating
contest Saturday night. The contest
ants, of course, were disappointed,
but say they we're fairly beaten and
royalty entertained at Boulder. The
Judges stood two for Boulder and one +,
State Superintendent of Schools
Harmon, for Hamilton. The Boulder
team consisted of Misses Jessie Nit
achell, Flora Stranahan and Lilah Hal
ford.
Mondays Missoulian gave the fol-
lowing interesting account of the
debate:
1.-THE Missoulian's story of the de-
bate, which came yesterday afternoon,
says that it was in the opinion of
those who have heard many of the
high school contests one Of the strong
est in the history of the state associa-
tion. Both teams were we'll drilled
and thoroughly prepared. They
showed the evidences of careful study
and were ready in their delivery.
"Hamilton had the affirmative. To
the Missouiian's correspondent one of
the judges said at the close of the de-
bate: The direct argument of Ham
ilton was the strongest presentation
of subject that have heard in any
high school debate. The young speak
~ers had their subject well in hand and
they made their points tell. But Ham
ilton lost the debate on the rebuttal.
In this Boulder was strong This
opinion seemed to be shared by the
audience.
"The contention of the affirmative
was along the lines that present con-
~ditions demand that some action be
taken by the government to provide
means of settling disputes between
capital and labo. In the present
laws there is nothing remedial; con-
ferences and voluntary boards of ar
filtration are not remedial; in COM
pulsory boards of arbitration will be
found means of settlement that is
completely remedial. While it is true
that compulsory arbitration is at

| present theoretical, it has proved sue
cessful in New Zealand. The Hamil-
| ton debaters relied largely upon the
New Zealand laws to support their
| argument.
"The negative side was strongly
developed. The refutation of the af-
| firmative arguments was strong;
there was an answer for every point
that was made, and the Boulder team
| attacked the line of Hamilton's argu-
| ment at every point. The unconsti-
tutiohality of compulsory law was
| advanced in opposition to the proposed
enactment, and the New Zealand ex-
perience was analysed thorough hly.
| 'But it was in the rebuttai that
Hamilton fell down. The Boulder
debaters held back their New Zealand
ammunition till the last, and they
used it to such good advantage that
Hamilton did not make strong show
ing in this stage of the discussion.
Cup to the last it seemed that Ham
ilton had the better of the argument.
But it was in the final rebuttal that
! Boulder pulled victory out of the con-
, test and won the decision.
''The judges were State Superin-
tendent Harmon, District Judge Cal
laway and President Swain Of the
state normal school. All six of the
debaters were girls, which gave a
novel feature to the debate. Hanil-
toms team was handicapped by con-
tinued sickness, which had prevented
thorough training; but there was no
whining on the part of the losers;
they took their defeat bravely, con-
scious that they had done their best.
They made many friends in Boulder.
"Principal Owens of the Hamilton
high school and the members of the
team, Misses Ina Abbey, Winifred
Romney and Elsie Hayes, reached
Missoula on No. 5 last night, on their
return from Boulder. AT the Shapard
hotel Principal Owens talked with a
MiSSoulian man about the debate. His
statements agreed with those con-
tanned in the story of the debate which

we have no fault to find with the de-
cision. The Boulder team is the
strongest debating combination that
l have seen in Montana. In all the
debates last year, from start to finish,
Hamilton's team did not meet as
strong team as this. The debate
was the closest have ever heard in a
high school contest.
"'I believe that Hamilton's presen-
tation of the affirmative was we'll
enough done to satisfy anybody of
the excellence of our organization.
