safety but the tender went through
and there was a sudden stop and
people were thrown from their seats
and piled on top of each other. The
weight of the cars behind came down
against us and we were pushed
ahead. Then for one awful moment,
which seemed like hours, we went
bounding over broken rails and tore
up the road bed about the length Of
three cars The baggage car broke
loose, rolling down the bank and
landed on its side by the waters
edge. The smoker turned half way
around and ran down the bank with
the front end in eight feet of water.
The coach that we were in went just
far enough that when it started to
roll it landed against the smoker
which held it fast. Then came the
task of getting out. My first thought
did and helped my wife and baby out.
then went to the rescue of others.
1t did not take long to get everybody
out as there was no one badly hurt,
but it did not seem possible that we
were all alive when we got out and
saw how the cars were piled up, and
how narrowly we had escaped from
rolling into the river. The baggage
car burned and everything in it. We
lost one trunk but felt thankful that
we got out alive. We are all we'll
and happy in Spokane.

Spokane, WASH, Mar. 10, 1910.
Editor Reporter:-As we have
many friends in Decatur county who
will be glad to hear from us, we beg
leave to write them through the
columns of your paper. We left
Leon March list on the 11:45 train
for St. Joe. After three hours stop
we left there on the Burlington to
take our chances on reaching the
land where snow-capped mountains
and fertile valleys decorated with
roses can be seen the year around.
Our train lost time on account of the
many people who took advantage Of
the cheap rates and got on at every
station, and the much baggage to be
handled. When daylight came we
found ourselves scarcely across the
state Of Nebraska. All day long we
Travelled through sand hills, now and
then running out into a stretch Of
fertile soil. We travelled across a
corner of South Dakota reaching the
Montana line just as the sun went
down. By this time we had on Is
coaches and two baggage cars and
ting pretty tired by this time and al
most everybody engaged in cat-naps
through the long hours of the night.
We reached Billings, Montana, just
at daylight, and just in time to catch
the Northern Pacific train from St.
Paul, Mimi, which was about four
hours late and already loaded to it's
full capacity. There was a rush for
the train, and most everybody got on
but scarcely any of us gots seats, and
lucky for us there was only one of
our trunks transferred from there.
We started to climb the mountains
along the water edge of the Yellow
stone River Valley. There was hard
ly anything to be seen all day ex-
cept the mountains and great lodges
of rocks on either side. We pulled
into Helena about three o'clock in
the afternoon. Here we saw the
historical Hangman's Tree where so
many horse and cattle thieves clawed
the air for foot holds in the days of
long ago. By this time the train was
not so crowded, many having unload
ed at various points along the route,
and there were seats now for every
body. We left Helena at six p. m.
with feeling of uneasiness as the
road was reported in bad condition
on account of the high water. Just
before dark we travelled long dis
lance through more than twelve
inches of water. This was our third
night on the road and we were very
tired, but we scarcely closed an eye.
1t seemed that morning would never
come, but it came at last and it was
a great relief. We were now far
down the western slope of the Rock
les, running at lively pace along
Clark's fork OF the Columbia River

dirt was washed from under the track

A Letter From Hal Gates.

John F. CARRIER, of Franklin town
ship, has received the following letter
from Hal Gates, former resident of
this city, who is now located at Bur-
dette, Colorado, which he has kindly
handed to us for publication:
Burdette, Colo, Mar. IA, 1910.
John F. CARRIER, Esq.
Dear Sir:-The right honorable
Jesse A. Stevens tells me you showed
strong symptoms of having the west
ern fever, or the cheap land lust, and
that you paid a visit to the Cheyenne
and Golden Prairie districts without
satisfying your desires and returned
to Leon with firm convictions that the
cheap Land was all too cheap to be
good. / admire your judgment in re-
gard to the land you saw, but will
tell you you did not look the right
place. If you had visited the Leroy
district in Colorado you would have
gone home with deed on your per-
son for a patch of Colorado land, and
with smile on your face such as
only appears in watermelon season.
Now, Mr.. CARRIER, / have been in Col
orado over a year, and you have often
heard about the cactus, sage brush
and winds in this country, marked
on the maps as the Great American
Desert. Will say that the cactus and
sage brush does not exist on the
prairie land but only in a chain of
sand hills which adjoin the Platte
valley and across these hills you find
a fine rolling prairie, very fertile,
lying in a rain belt with plenty of
rainfall. / will not deny the wind
part of the story, but will try and
keep wind out of this letter and give
you only plain facts of which / can
furnish undeniable proof by showing
you the goods produced. After spend
ing thirty days looking filed on our
homestead April LIST, and to be plain,
felt like was an April fool, as the
land looked SO good felt there must
be something wrong and did not
come out on it until the last day of
May, and only came myself to put
in trial crop. We planted less than
a half acre of potatoes, using about
three bushels of seed, some pumpkin,
melons, and cucumbers, and later
some turnips and about five acres of
cain. / then went back to Sterling
and ran restaurant until October.
During this time 1 hardly knew what
to do. Came out to the homestead
October list and found the best crop
ever raised, and tell you the price Of
our homestead was advanced at the
rate of thousand day for few
days. We dug 46 bushels of as fine
potatoes as you would want, and had
the largest turnips / ever saw, some
of them weighing ten pounds. Every
thing we had planted did well, beans
and all. Beans will yield ten to
twenty bushels per acre. But wheat
is the king crop, yielding from twenty
to thirty bushels and believe will
average twenty-five bushels. Corn
runs about the same yield. Potatoes
about $50 bushels per acre. This
was last year and with only nineteen
inches of rainfall. But this soil holds
water and we had plenty of water on
our crops. Old settlers say and I do
not doubt their word, that the past
eight years crops have been as good
as last season. There was only a lit

tie patch of government land left
when | came here, and all that was
good was taken by May LIST, and all
gone when the Model or 800 acre act
came in force. You can buy decided
land now for from $40 to $25 per
acre, owing mostly to who owns it,
as much of the land is owned by par
ties living in the east. There are
only a few half section relinquish-
ments which can be bought for So on
up, but they are not the best land.
You can buy a dandy good quarter
section for IS and up. The cheap
ones are being sold as they were only
taken for the profit that could be
made on them. Stevens bought a
quarter which corners with ours, and
Milt Truitt has one half mile north
of Stevens. They got the best bar
gain in this county. While there are
not any as cheap as theirs there are
a few left worth the money Stevens
said for me to write you anything
good about this country and he would
swear to it. When l wrote him about
it l told him he would locate here
should he come and look and he sure
did after looking around for a week,
taking the first place / showed him.
This county is settled mostly by peo-
pie from Iowa, Illinois, Missouri and
Nebraska, and if ] and Jesse are
fooled there are lot of smart look
ing men who are fooled too, men
who are investing $4,000 in decided
land as an investment. Should you
be interested enough to write will be
pleased to answer all questions, or
would be glad to have you or the
boys come out and look and visit us.
There are still some homestead lands
west OF Sterling that are lots better
than the Cheyenne country. They
are from ten to twenty miles from the
Burlington railroad. We have one
thing here that we never had in Iowa
and that is good health, and we are
happy and contented in our little
homestead shack where the landlord
does not call for rent or possession
either, and our contract calls for a
deed after five years of exile on the
barren plains as you Iowa people
would say. l feel sure that by the
time we get our patent our land
would sell for $40 per acre or more
You may not believe it, but I don't
expect you to, SO don't try. One man
with four good horses can make more
money farming here and raise more
corn than one man can in Decatur
county. Now / know Decatur county
adjoins Missouri and the show me-
feeling blows over the line pretty
strong, but come look, tell your
friends, send your neighbors, send
for the Colorado crop reports, and
best of all ask Jesse Stevens, of Bur-
dette, Colorado, and you will be con-
WINGED that this letter is not all Colo
RADIO wind. See the samples / sent
my daddy-in-law, or my wife's pa, j.
M. Pickering. Come and look in my
cave, in Jesse Stevens corn field, in
my neighbours wheat bin, visit our
chicken roosts, and you will say there
Is something to this Leroy country.
We are 18 miles north of Otis, 10
miles east and. 10 miles south OF
Sterling, and can be reached by phone
by calling e. A. Lewis ranch, half
mile south of us. Will be glad to
meet you or any other Decatur coun-
ty homeseekers in Sterling and share

statements if it takes a dozen lies to

CITY WINS ROAD SUIT.
Judge Irwin, in Superior Court, Says
Wiley Has No Legal Right to
Land

Decision has finally been made in
the long standing litigation relative
to title to the Montesano road right
of way through tide lands in East
Aberdeen, and the city wins it's con-
tention. In an opinion handed down
Thursday in the superior court at Mon
tesano, Judge Irwin holds that Wiley
has no legal title to the lands in ques-
ton, declaring in his decision that
error in the Judgment of the state
land commissioner was responsible
for the deed to the property involved
coming into the possession of RS. r.
A. Wiley. That the deed was deliv-
cred by the land commissioner while
under the impression that Mrs. Wiley
had decided to the state right OF way
through the property for a county
road, and had complied fullX with the
condition therein. This, states the
decision, is not the case, as Mrs.
Wiley has not fully complied with the
conditions and therefore the deed is
null and void.
