Gaffney Ledger, 18th.
Editor Ebert H. Aull, of the New
berry Herald and News, issued a most
creditable illustrated number last
week, it being his 25th anniversary in
the printing business. Brother Aull
was once a professor in college and
also a lawyer, but he reformed quar-
ter of a century ago. If he would now
reform his politics he could be classed
as a lallapaloosa.

A LUCKY DIVISION

"Missoula division luck" The quo
tation tells the story. Along the line of
the Puget Sound from st. Paul to the
coast. this phrase has come to mean
the best kind of luck. A fortunate es-
cape from u collision Is always typi-
fled as being another case of Mis-
soula division luck" A train IL de-
rallied. nobody is hurt In the accident.
and 1t Is not long before the wheels are
grinding away again. Another case of
'Missoula division luck" And there
seems to be some foundation for the
nse of this quotation as emblematic of
good fortune. The Missoula division
has been singularly free from dis
astrous accidents. 1--WE respectfully
knock on wood at this point In the
storyD From the time when the first
grading crews began their work on the
present right of way--up and to the
present time--the Missoula division has
been In luck. The bad smashups al
ways occur on the sister divisions. but
nothing that could really be character
lied as a wreck has happened on this
section of the Puget Sound extension.
'Yes. there was one" said the railroad
man who was telling the story. This
happened In the Garrison tunnel about
two and half years ago. A work
train was In the tunnel doing some
work on the roof-retimhering, I think
II was-and "A time freight came down
the line. The fagman was I'm too
close and the freight crashed into the
work train. Engineer Brown was
killed In the wreck. lie Is the only
railroad man killed In an accident on
the Puget Sound. II was an awkward
wreck to handle and II was found nec-
essary to detour trains over the North
ern Pacific for some time. with this
exception the local division of the Mil
waukec has met with extraordinary
good luck and It's good fortune Is be-
coming proverbial"
