Report of Accident
Derby Station

UerDy OIdtlOH
The Public Utilities Commission
Thursday rendered a decision In the
matter of the accident which oc-
Cured at Lyford's Crossing near
Derby on the line of the Bangor &
Aroostook RAILROAD June Is last
which resulted in the death of Will
liam w. Cross.
The decision Of the Public Utilities
Commission covering the matter is as
follows:
ION June IS, 1920, about 5.45 o'clock
p. NJ, William w. Cross, aged IS
years, of Brownville Junction was in
stantly killed when struck by Bangor
& Aroostook Passenger Train No. 1e3,
at Lyford's Crossing, near Derby
Station. Mr.. Cross was driving in
Ford automobile in an easterly direc-
ton. and apparently had clear view
of the railroad track in both direc-
tions from point in the highway
more than 800 feet from the crossing.
When the firemen found that the
automobile was evidently being
driven upon the crossing in front of
the train, he warned the engineer who
Immediately applied the emergency
brakes. But the engine was then
only about 200 feet from the cross
ing. and it was too late to avoid the
accident.
The collision occurred almost at
the moment that the brakes were ap-
piled. The train, consisting of the
engine and five cars, came to a stop
at a distance of 1850 feet from the
crossing. The wrecked automobile
and the body of Mr.. Cross were
dragged for a distance of 370 feet
from the crossing. The engine
whistled for the grade crossing. but
no warning whistle was given before
the collision. The engineer says that
he had no opportunity to give such
warning whistle after the fireman
notified him of the impending danger,
before the collision occurred. The
engineer had no warning of the ap-
preaching automobile until warned
by the fireman, as he could not see it
from the side of the engine.
1T is impossible to account for the
fact that Mr.. Cross drove his automo-
bile directly in front of the approach
lIs, TRAM WHICH iIuSI nave DeeH III
plain sight of him, when he was more
than 500 feet from the crossing. But
evidently he was neglecting his plain
duty to stop and look and listen be-
fore coming to this place of danger,
and apparently he neither saw nor
heard the train. 1t is possible and
perhaps probable that this accident
might have been avoided if the fire
| man could have given warning
! blast of the whistle when he first
realized that collision was immi-
nent. We are impressed with the
, suggestion that the fireman ought to
be required to sound warning
whistle in an emergency such as oc-
, Cured in this case, and we desire an
expression of opinion from some Of
ficials of the railroad company as to
whether or not such requirement
would be feasible"

SIX GOOD REPUBLICAN REASONS

Six good and sufficient reasons why you should throw your support to the republican ticket in the November election are:
 q. The Republicans of the Senate saved the nation from surrender to the League of Nations, with its obligations to send men and supply money and munitions to fight the battles of Europe.
 "2. The Republican Congress cut the de- mands of the Democratic administration to the extent of $2, 300 ,0O0, ,O00 and thus saved that amount to the taxpayers of America.
 "3 The Republican Congress enacted com prehensive merchant marine law which gives this nation power to prevent other nations from discriminating against American shipping and insures the establishment of permanent Amer ican ocean routes between the principal ports of the United States and all the other important ports of the world.
 A. The Republican Congress passed the Water Power bill, which encourages private cap ital to invest in the construction of dams and electric plants for the development of power now going to waste which bill safeguards the public interest by providing for the regulation of charges and for the payment of excessive profits into the treasury
 "5, The Republican Congress passed the oil land leasing bill which permits the development of oil lands owned by the government, but pre- vents monopolization of such lands and secures to the government proper share of the returns from the operation of the oil wells on public do- main.
 "6 The Republican Congress checked the movement of the Democratic administration to- ward government ownership, government opera tion, socialism and autocracy. Republicans ex- posed and forced the abandonment of the Demo cratic policy of coddling bolshevism
 And these are only few of the more irn- portant reasons why you should place Republi- cans in charge of the national government"
The Coconino sun., 1920-10-01
KEEP YOUR RECEIPTS

A dispatch from Chicago says that large corporation was called to explain why it had not paid its government tax amounting to $225, 5,000 and produced receipt showing that it had paid There was no record of the government having received the money. It is said that there is over two millions of money in the federal vaults with no record to show where it came from. It was fortunate for the corporation in this instance that it did not conduct it's business as loosely as does the Wilson administration. It will also be fortunate for lot of other people if they care fully preserve the receipts for their payments ta the government.

TWO GROUPS.

In his speech in San Francisco on Friday, Can didate Cox denounced the nomination of Senator Harding as having been made by "a small group of men," He named them:
 Lodge, Wadsworth,
 Watson, Mccormick,
 Harding, Shoot,
 Brandegee, Harvey
 If the charge was true the group would still be infinitely more acceptable to the taste of the American voter than the smaller group which after frameup conference at French Lick Springs "put Jimmy over" at San Francisco
 Murphy, Taggart,
 Nugent, Brennan.
 Seven of the men in the upper group are men who sit in the United States Senate, the choice of the people of great states. But the members of the little group that nominated Cox are not senators. They are business men and their bus mess is politics-ward politics. Cox politics. New York Herald.

There is a general feeling among the people that good tariff law to bring in government revenues would be much better than the present direct "war tax" and other taxes that are inn posed at every turn. For many years the den- ocrats contended that tariff was tax" We are constrained to wonder at this time what the people think of the democratic idea of direct taxation and whether they would pay cent here and few cents there and have constantly be- fore them few odd cents of the so-called "war tax. The present system of taxing people "from the cradle to the grave" and from the ice cream cone to the movie, does not seem to strike popular chord, and we are wondering if the people are not longing for the good old times when the "robber tariff" was in vogue.
The Coconino sun., 1920-10-01

Congressman Hayden's charge that "the pres ent republican congress has done nothing to re- duce the cost of living, does not harmonize with his charge in another breath that "the republi- cans cut down appropriations wanted by the ad- ministration." According to Haydens idea the more congress appropriated the less the cost of living would be- What he could have explained and which would have interested the people, is that the government persisted in spending bil- lions after the armistance was signed in pre- pairing cantonments down south for war, more trucks to rot in the sun, and few things like that.
The Coconino sun., 1920-10-01

It is amusing to see the efforts of some of the real good democratic papers trying to boost the democratic administration, when they have been, and are against pretty near every known policy of Wilson's and the administration that Cox has agreed to take over and carry on. They are against government ownership of public utilities, against the league of nations and against the surtax and the petty tax and believe that tariff would be about the right thing again. Hard lines isn't it boys, keeping in front when you know "there ain't no front"

A DOUBLE CELEBRATION.

On November II, America will celebrate the second anniversary of the signing of the armis- tice--the end of two years of peace in which President Wilson refused to permit the United States to participate unless this nation consented to surrender to a super-state dominated by Europe The anniversary will fall nine days af ter the election-ample time for all the returns to be in, showing the rebuke the American peo- pie have administered to the great obstruction ist
