BENJAMIN D. narshbereer

1t is seldom that an Office seeks man,
but such was the case with Benjamin D.
Harshberger, of Bluff, Utah, represen-
tative from San Juan county, and one of
the few Democrats who will find a seat
in the house of representatives this year.
The office had many reasons for seeking
Mr.. Harshberger. Among them are
that the installation of the water works
for Bluff we're rn great part due to him.
he was the father of the idea of putting
in artesian wells around Bluff and the
first to put the idea into practice, he has
been one of the strong promoters of the
dry farm industry of San Juan county,
which will some dav be the largest field
in the state, and he is still one of the
large owners and operators in the San
Juan oil ields.-Salt Lake News.

returned for the second and third time
to ask about land values, the cultivation
of crops and rates of passenger and
freight transportation. The mayor re-
qnested that bundle of literature on
board the car be left at the public Ii
brary.
Many farmers arriving late in the
afternoon at Miff1in, O., could not get
into the car because of the crowds, and
at nightfall teams were tied all around
the courthouse square. At Newcastle,
Ind, school teachers passed through the
car with pencil and paper making notes.
"We feel highly elated over the great
success of our car" said Mr.. Graham.
"and if its reception and the interest
aroused through the East is any indica-
ton, a large percentage of these people
will soon be with ns, beginning early
next spring"

Brass Band Boom

Several Of the business and profess

during the week in the organization of
the Newport brass band. A goodly
number have promised to help the band
along. There are ten or fifteen good
musicians in town. Some of them were
members of the old band and will Join
the new band and help secure new
members. There are ten or a dozen in
struments around town and the uni
forms bought two years ago are in fair
shape.
Newport certainly needs a musical
organization of this kind and every citi-
zen should be willing to aid in every
way possible in its reorganization. A
meeting has been called for Monday

are requested to attend and endeavor to
effect permanent organization ad elect

NEWS FROM STATE CAPITOL
Many New Bills Come Up for
Consideration.
Stevens Delegates Do Good Work

State taxes hereafter will be higher
than ever before. even if no special ap-
preparations are made, unless the leeis-
lature provides for increased returns
from indirect sources.
Present offices and institutions are
taking about 81 800, 900 from the general
fupd. Current school tax, highway tax
and military tax, under present laws,
will call for about $5,OOO,OOO more or
nearly $4,000, 900 in all.
Every dollar the state general fund
can collect from indirect sources leaves
just so much less to be raised by direct
taxes. Auditor Clausen figures that in
direct revenues, even with the state levy
raised, will fail by million to raise
enough money to run the state.
The chief sources of indirect revenue
are collections from the state land office,
corporation fees and licenses, insurance
tax and fees and liquor licenses. Audi.
tor Clausen figures $400, 900 revenue from
liquor licenses. but this will not be real
lied if more territory goes dry.
To save higher direct taxes to meet
any falling off of this revenue, and to
keep the liquor question ont this session
so legislators can devote their attention
to careful work to economic expendi.
lures the house has voted not to con-
slider any changes in thel ocal option law.
Already many of the house member
have received letters of approval from
their constituents, and there is no doubt
there will be large number of other
communications along the same lines
sent to Olympia. Many of the senators
have also received similar letters.
The Stevens county delegation at
Olympia are working hard on the county
division bill and have enlisted the aid of
several legislators in their cause.
It is admitted that the proposed lines
are satisfactory and so far no reasonable
opposition has appeared. Effort is
being made to keep the bill drafted out
of the ominus bill being drafted, which
would change Ferry, Okanogan and
Douglas county boundary lines.
| With the west sue delegates sanding
strongly with Us, there is every reason
to feel sure of success.

ENGINEER AND fireman KILLED
Light Engine Jumps Track Near
Priest River.
Grew and Engine in Deep Water

Engineer w. F. Zumwalt. of Spokane,
and Fireman J.,hn ]. Keisler. OF Hill
yard, met their death early Friday
morning, when No. 1912 OF the Great
Northern jumped the track at point
four miles east of Priest River, plunging
into the Pend Oreille river over an en-
bankment of 25 feet.
The engine which met disaster was
one of two bound east from Spokane to
the relief of trains snowbound st the
summit of the Rockies. The two en-
gines, Nos. 1912 and 1447, were coupled
together and were in charge of Conduc-
tor Eberhart and Engineers Zumwalt
and J. G. Wyatt.
According to reports engine 1447,
which was in the lead. did not leave the
rails. which are reported to be undis-
turbed. The second engine suddenly
lurched and breaking it's coupling reeled
across the embankment. which is lS feet
wide at this point, and before the other
engine had been brought to stop dis
appeared from sight beneath the swift
waters of the Pend Oreille.
The accident was reported to Spokane
and the recker hurried to the scene of
disaster. Nothing could be accomplish
ed, as engine 1912 had plunged into deep
water, the river atthis point being about
$50 feet deep.
Expert divers were secured from Se-
attic and f,r four days have been en-
deavoring to locate the bodies of the
dead engineer and fireman and the en-
gine. They located the coal tender in
about so feet of water. The engine
was located Wednesday in about 100
feet of v ater, but no trace of the bodies
was found. They are either pinned nn-
der the wreckage or have been washed
down river by the swift current and
there is little hope of finding them. The
track was in good shape where the en-
Rine LETT the rails, and the cause OF the
accident may have been due to main
tanning too great speed.

GREAT NORTHERN EXHIBIT CAR
Thousands Seek Information of
Our Resources.
Big Rush West In the Spring.

With eager crowds OF from 1900 to
6000 per day at all cities and towns
visited, the Great Northern's Washing
toh exhibition car, now touring Penn
sylvania. is leaving a wide swath OF
boosters for an early spring rush into
this state from among the Fasteners.
according to reports received by +. w.
Graham, industrial and immigration
agent of the Great Northern in Seattle.
Daily and weekly newspapers in cities
through which the car has passed have
printed columns OF description of Wash
ington and it's products as represented
in the exhibition car.
Nothing else is talked about on the
streets and in the homes of the people
of these cities, and the Pacific North
west, with Washington predominating,
Mr.. Graham declares, is to be the desti-
nation in early spring of hundreds OF
actual settlers.
At Latrobe, Pa, the car was thronged
all day. and during several hours the
crowd was 80 dense that long line
waited It's turn outside. A total OF 1000
people saw the exhibit there. Unable
to accommodate all who came, the man
agement rented large dance hall In the
town and gave night lecture on WASH
ington's opportunities and resources.
People were again turned away. When
the lecture closed at 10 p. IN. citizens
demanded that the car be reopened.
This was done and until after midnight
capacity crowds was the rule.
At Xenia, o.. where the car was held
for three days, 1000 school children at
tended the exhibit, and the Great North
ern representative visited the schools
and invited inspection. The pupils who
visited the car were instructed by their
teachers to write essays on what they
saw.
School children at West Manchester,
O., were marched to the car in body,
and, piloted by the teachers. went
through it 118 strong.
More than 5000 people visited the car
at Coshocton, O.. in two days. On the
second day crowds of farmers drove in
