BURIED IN

TURED HIP.

D. Kingery, 43 years old, sewer
digger, whose home is in Kalispell
aud is employed by Contractors Ode
gard and Kelly in the construction
of the lateral sewer in the west
part of the city was caught in a
cave-in last Friday afternoon and
received quite serious injuries con-
sisting of fractured hip.
The ditch in which Kingery was
working was eleven feet deep, and
dry. Work had been carried on at
a greater depth under the same con-
ditions and was considered safe by
all who were working on the job.
Without warming cne of the walls ct
the ditch caved and buried Kingery
up to his chest. The weight of the
heavy clay earth crushed him up
against the opposite side of the ditch

depth of the ditch and the marrow

job. After being extricated he suf-
fered great pain and was taken to
the hospital for treatment where he
is reported getting along nicely and
will soon recover.
Mr. Odegard, who is personally su-
pervising the work most of the time,
greatly deplores that the accident
should have happened. He is always
very careful to see that his men are
properly protected against an
accident of this kind, but this was
AN unavoidable case. Upon examina-
tion Of the ground it was found that
the clay earth which lays i'm layers
was on a slant and this is what prob
ably caused it to slide in when the
ditch was cut through.

(By G. w. Avery)

The election is drawing near, the
ballot will be a large enc. Least we
forget, l would once more call the
voters attention to the state militia
law which will be presented to the
voters under the referendum law
for repeal or endorsement.
This law was passed by the last
state legislature and is now law
The question is, "Shall it be repeal
ed or not?'
Every voter who fills a useful
place in the industry or business Of
the day should vote against this mea.
sure. This town is supported in three
ways viz: The railroad pay roll, the
numbering industry and the farmers.
The state militia law makes every
man over eighteen and under for
ty-five, a member of the state militia
and subject to call for service at
any time the governor may decide
that he is needed. In plain English
hhis means that if our neighbors and
friends who are working for the
Great Northern railway Shall at any
time decide to quit work in a tody in
order to emphasize a demand they
wish to make on their employers any
of us who may be Of the required
age, are liable to be drafted and put
in service with gun to fight against
the very men whom we would gladly
befriend
Nay more, the very men them
selves are liable to be drafted and
put to service with a gum to fight
the very cause they are trying to
win. The same is true of the lum-
bering industry. If that is the kind
Of service you enjoy then vote to
retain the present militia law on the
Montana statutes. If not, then vote
against the law.
No nation has ever prospered nor
will ever prosper, peopled with an
enslsved working class. The state
militia law is decided detriment to
the wage earners. 1t is just as
much dotrimo2t to the employer
CT labor.
The greatest possible degree OF
prosperity and happiness will natur-
ally follow the giving to both en-
plcyer and employee the greatest
measure of personal liberty.
We have no objections to being
listed as subject to military duty
for the United States, in case of
foreign war CIR invasion, but We do
decidedly object to being made a
number of the state militia with
out our knowledge or consent. Here
is how We are going to vote ON the
question.
