disappointed that some Of the newspa-

expresses himself as highly pleased
with the result of the undertaking and
believes that it has had tendency to

ASSOCIATED PRESS RELIABLE

Spokane Spokesman Review: In re-
ferrtng to the Associated Press in a
recent issue the London Times said:
It Is the most wonderful news org
anization in the world and nothing
in Europe can compare with it. Its
are implicitly trusted throughout
North. America.
This is a remarkable tribute from
the best known newspaper in the
world. That the Associated Press has
been able to build up a reputation for
reliability, justify:ng such an unknown
qualified Endorsement from the great
est English daily, is due to the wise
provisions in its constitution which
makes organization. The 900 daily
newspapers Of the United States
the Associated Press are each and all
guardians Of the integrity Of it's news
service.
Every newspaper member has a
vote in making it's bylaws and in the
election Of its directors. The cost Of
collecting the news from all quarters
of the world and the distribution Of
it to the 800 members for publication
In their pewspapers in divided with a
CAREFUL worked out assessment plan.
Every member is required to supply
to the other members the news of his
newspaper field. and in return he Is
entitled to receive the news from the
districts covered by the rest Of the 900
members
In the organization are publishers
holding all kinds Of political and re-
ligious beliefs. The news service
therefore, must necessarily be an un-
prejudiced recital Of facts without
color or bias.
1t is for this reason that Associated
Press dispatches are read with con-
fidence In all cities In all states Of
the Union. The public has found by
years Of experience that they get the

Accidental death" was the verdict

Phillip Tessier, who. late yesterday
afternoon. was struck by the North
ern Pacific passenger train. No. IL.
Tessier was killed about 5:55 yester-
day afternoon, when he stepped upon
passenger train. The fatality occur
red just east Of the local depot.
TeEsier. who was employed at the
local round house, was walking be-
tween two tracks toward the depot.
Evidentaly thinking that the train
was coming in on one of the switching
tracks, he stepped upon the main line
track, directly in front Of the train.
Engineer Whisucd Four Times.
Ensineer Betters saw the man be-
tween the tracks and whistled iour
times. but Tessier apparently paid no
attention to the warnings.
When he moved to the track, the
train was practically upon him. and
consequently he was struck on the
side and hurled away.
Death, it is believed, was instantane-
GUS and was caused by internal in
turies. There were but few bruises
on his eide.
Deceased was 40 years old and was
one of a family of six brothers, re-
siding in this city. He is survived by
his mother and the following brothers
and sister: Charles, Joseph. Treffley.

Coroner Nelson was notified imme-
diately. He ordered the remains taxi
en- to an undertaking establishment.
This morning, he conducted an in
quest.
Train Was Late.
Mr. Testers fatal mistake probably
was due to the fact that No. 13 was
late. The train is scheduled to arrive
here at 5:15 y. m., but it did not come
in until nearly o'clock.
If he heard the train behind him,
Mr.. Tessier evidently thought that II
