WALKS MUST BE CLEANED.

owing to the varied weather condi-
tions, little difficulty has been eXper-
fenced in getting about the streets of
the city, although most of the walks
are still hidden by several Inches Of
ice. Since few if any of them we're in
a dangerous condition and the useless
ness of attempting to keep them clean
was apparent the street department
has been lenicnt with property own
crs The chief of police has notified
all owners, however, that with the next
thaw they must remove the ice and
snow from the walks and that the city
ordinance pertaining to walks will be
strictly enforced.

MINER NARROWLY
ESCAPES BURNING IN JAIL
Clyde Curry Rescued With Difficulty
After Being Painfully and Sc
vereIy Burned.

RoSIGBURG, ore, Review:
Fire in the city Jail shortly before
noon today imperiled the life of Clyde
Curry, a miner from Wallace, Idaho,
who got off the overland train here
this morning in a drunken condition.
Timely aid saved Curry from being
suffocated, but he was painfully burn
ed on the right arm and shoulder and
on one side of his neck and face. The
burn on the arm is a few inches above
a burn which Curry sustained in a
lodging house fire in Spokane two
months ago. The bandage was still
around 1t.
cant cell Immediately next to the one
in which Curry lay in a drunken stu
por II is the theory that matches
placed under the mattress by some
one in the past were set off by rats
or mice, as has often occurred. Smoke
issuing from the barred windows of
the Jail occasioned the sounding Of
the fire alarm. Citizens who respond
ed broke open the lock Of the Jail door
and Curry. dazed and unable to real
ize what was transpiring and with a
burned hole In the shoulder of his
shirt, was half dragged and half led
to the outer air
Curry's injuries were attended to by
Dr Il. p. Stewart In Osburn's pharn,-
acy. Then he was led back To the iaiI
to continue sleeping off the effects of
his spree. When he aighted from
the train this morning he was stag
gering about aimlessly. Marshall
Fenton took him into custody and cs-
corted him quietly to Jail. Curry went
to sleep almost Immediately and he
was IN sound sunber, notwithstaud-
ing the burns on his face and Shout
der when his rcscucrs laid hold of
him. The burns will prevent Curry
from doing much manual labor for
three or four weeks.

BRAKEMEN NARROWLY
ESCAPE AWFUL DEATH
PETER REAGAN AND ANTOINE
LARSON BURIED BENEATH
20 TONS OF ROCK.

Two Northern Pacific brakemen,
Peter Reagan and Antoine Larson were
buried alive Monday morning when
the ore car on which they were riding
jumped the track near the Humming-
Bird ore bins at Burke. Us the train
rounded the sharp curve. That they
were rescued in time to he rcsuscitat-
ed seems little short of miraculous, for
they were hidden from sight, when
the first searchers arrived on the
scene, by 70 tons of muck that poured
out of the partially wrecked bins hit
by the derailed car Reagans skull
was fractured and Larson sustained
a broken shoulder, but at the hospital
it was found that neither is danger
ously injured, Neither will be laid
up for more than a few days.
An alarm was given which brought
Il lui5o Hul'loel VI men u lHe scene
of the accident The victims were
soon found, and though Larsons in
juries were causing him great suffer-
ing, they were placed on a ear and
brought to Wallace at once.
The principal damage done was to
the ore bins and will not exceed $50
or $500. This will be repaired at once.
The car is thought to have been forced
from the tracks when the trucks re-
fused to give sufficiently to follow the
curve in the track

were scattered promiscuously, but
there was no loss the morning deliv-

matters local to the state, a com p1iance with it's terms now could not per SC be violative of the anti-tr trust law; and after recognition of its val idity by a continuous course of action since the antitrust law became map plicable. it is doubtful whether the United States would now be permit ted to repudiate the contract, even though it's execution had originally violated that law.
 But I do not think it was in it's inception prohibited by the anti-rtust act While it is not stated so speci- fically, yet it is apparent that the Pacific Gas and Electric vompany was the sole producer of electricity from the water power furnished by the canals over which the govern ment desired to secure complete con trol, and that it was not the design of the government to enter into com petition with that company in the sale of electric energy. The matter in which the United States had es- pecial interest was the obtaining of full control over the water supply for irrigation purposes, and as an in cident to that object it was prefer able. and indeed necessary. that the canals be relieved of all claims of the company. To accomplish this. it was essential that the interest of the com pany be purchased in some way by the United States. Under these cir cumstances, I think the covenant on the part of the United States not to sell electricity at retail in competi- tion with the company in Phoenix was one the company had a right to exact for it's own protection, and that it did not impose an unlawful re- straint upon the United States with reference to the subsequent sale of electricity.

 Whether the antitrust act applies to the agents of the United States in making contracts under circumstances of like character to those above stat ed, is a question upon which I do not find it necessary to express an opinion. Respectfully,

[ C0NTRACT |S
 LEGAL SAYS U.S.
 ATTY. GENERAL
Secretary of Interior Was Within His Rights When
 He Approved Contract Between R e c 1 a m a t o Il
 Service and P. G. & E.

From the time that the contract be- tween the reclamation service and the Pacific Gas and Electric company was made public. the Arizona Republican has contended that the contract is per fectly legal, and not subject to for feiture because of any conflict with the anti trust statistics either of the state or the United States. In an opin- ion rendered by the attorney generals office of the United States, which Is printed in full herewith, the govern ment's highest legal authority confirms the position taken by this paper. James I. Parker,
 Chief Clark.
 The Secretary of the Interior.
 Sir:
 By his letters of December 20, 1912. and February 26, 1913. your predeces- sor brought up for the consideration and opinion of the attorney general certain questions respecting the legal ity of a contract entered into by the United States, under date of June 22. 1907. with the Pacific Gas and Electric company. a corporation organized un- der the laws Of the territory of Ari- zona In the letter of December 20, 1912, it is stated:
 The contract in question was execut- ed by a supervising engineer of the United States reclamation service and approved by the acting secretary of the interior. in 1907, in connection with the reconstruction, opera ton, and maintenance of the Salt River recla- nation project.
 As recited in the contract itself, and as shown by the records of this depart ment, the Pacific Gas and Electric com pany was the owner of certain water rights in canals within the physical limits of the reclamation project, and pursuant to the policy of merging all irrigating canals in Salt River Valley in the government reclamation project, so that when completed and paid for the water users would control all irri- gation works therein, it was deemed necessary to acquire the rights of the electric company. Such an adjustment was reached through the contract in question wherein the electric company surrendered and conveyed to the Unit ed States all of it's rights and in lieu thereof the United States agreed to furnish to the company in the city of Phoenix, Arizona, a specified amount of electrical energy generated at works
