KILLED IN RUNAWAY
george Phillips Injured, Dies on
Trip Home.

! AAAV 0VluCs
Injured in a runaway and hauled
eight miles through the night in .
wagon from Spirit Lake to the mil
at Twin Lakes, George Phillips, a
young man Of this locality, died a,
an early hour Tuesday morning be.
tore a physician was called and
before ne could be taken from the
wagon and his injuries properly at.
tended to. His companion, James
Hicks, who drove the team, called
Dr. brennan Of Rathdrum, by phone
as soon as he reached his home near
Twin Lakes about q O clock Tues
day morning, and when the physi-
clan arrived he found that Mr.. Hicks
had already retired. Young Phillips
he said, had died on the trip and the
body was still in the wagon, death
having probably been caused as
much from the cold and exposure Of
the long trip and lack Of immediate
medical attention, as from the in
juries received in the runaway.
Mr.. Hicks, in describing the acci.
dent to DR.. brennan, stated that he
had gone back to Spirit Lake to get
help, but, as it was IL o'clock or
later, he said all the places were
locked up and he could find no ply
sician, SO decided to drive home
after getting a Swede, whom he
found, to help him place the form Of
the unconscious man in the wagon.
According to Mr.. Hicks, he and
young Phillips started to drive from
Spirit Lake at late hour in the
night. They drove team that was
regarded as dangerous, and i,
appeared later, that in harnessing
they forgot to put the bit in the
mouth of one Of the animals. The
runaway occurred on the Wharton
hill short way this side Of Spiri,
Lake. Mr.. Hicks was thrown Out
when the spring on the seat broke.
Picking himself up he found young
Phillips lying on his back uncon.
scious beside the road, and the team,
tangled up half mile farther on,
came to standstill.
George Phillips was about e
years Of age and was son Of Mr.
and Mrs. William Phillips, residing
about two miles northeast OF Rath
drum. The funeral was held Thurs
day.

IMPROVE THE WATERWAYS
Lower Mississippi Other Topics
Changes In Congress.
The Tribune Bureau.
BY j. Il. JONES

Washington, D. C.-The move.
ment for the construction OF per-
manent levees along the lower
Mississippi river, for flood protec-
ton, is responsible for bringing
one thousand delegates to the
national capital to attend the rivers
and harbors convention. The
representative men of the lower
Mississippi, who have been exert
ing their influence in Washington
by emphasizing the importance OF
more vigorous action on the part
OF congress and the war depart
ment, believe they have made
headway, and they hope to secure
their levees, and thus prevent re-
currence of the destruction visited
upon them in the years past.
Not many years ago government
ownership of railroads was looked
upon as rank socialism in this
country, and yet the president Of
the United States recomm ends the
building of such road in Alaska.
Members Of congress declare that
TOR the government to own and
control railroads in Alaska is not
an Utopian idea, and they declare
that it is going to be one OF the
duties Of the present congress to
provide for such means of opening
that great country.
While it may be the general
supposition that the timber has all
been removed from the middle
western section OF the country, yet
this idea is dissipated by a state
ment from the forest service to the
effect that the largest remaining
| virgin forest OF white pine is found
, in Minnesota; and it is further
stated that Minnesota remains rich
| in its timber wealth, as there are
still great forests Of norway, jack
pine, spruce, tamarack and balls am
| fir. For great many years the
| government has been busily super
vising lumber operations on Indian
reservations in northern Minnesota,
and the remaining forests are
largely Indian timber.
II Rip Van Winkle should come
to Washington and acquaint him

present day he would doubtless be
struck by the absence OF persona
feeling between political combat
ants as compared with other days
When Senator La Toilette came

ideas, he was treated as an outcas

to which he had been elected. Ii
the house OF representatives, Rep
resentative Norris OF Nebraska
and other "insurgents" were get

different it is today, when men llk'

as though nothing had happened

less than ten years ago all hnger
would have pointed him out as
traitor. The same was true IN re
gard to the Louisiana member:
who took up the opposition agains
the democratic party IN making
the tariff bill. Only few old.

the action of these men as "treas

has been forgotten SO far as tn:
