Louis Kokas, Greek Laborer
Employed by Grant Smith &
Go. Meets Death Near Golf
Hugh Vigner Has Narrow Els
cape; Truck Plunges Seven
ty-five Feet Into Water

Louis Kokas, aged about 80 years, a
Greek laborer employed by Grant
Smith & Co., on the North and South
highway, was killed Wednesday morn
ing near Golf, when the roadbed gave
way, and the motor truck in which
he was riding plunged seventy-five feet
over a precipice into the Salmon
river, below.
With Kokas, and driving the truck,
was Hugh Vigner, of Grangeville, who
jumped as the machine went over the
grade, and escaped injury. Kokas al
SO jumped, but in some manner was
caught by the truck, or a piece of
heavy machinery which was being
transported in the truck. His fore
head, above his left eye, was laid
open, and his skull was fractured.
Kokas was rendered UNCONSCIOUS, but
lived for an hour and half after the
accident occurred. DR.. w. A. Foskett
of Whitebird was summoned, but the
man died before the physician arrived.
At the place where Kokas was kill
led, the road had been built along the
mountain side Iron stakes had been
driven into the ground, to hold logs,
which formed support on the side
hill for filled-in road. The logs had
rotted, through age, and when Kokas
and Vigner drove over the road with
5000 pounds of machinery, the logs
gave way, and the entire outfit plunged
over the grade.
The men were moving machinery be-
tween Camp and 5.
Kokas, according to persons with
whom he conversed, early Wednesday
morning, told of a premonition that
he would be killed during the day.
ct had horrible dreams last night, -
he is quoted as saying. 81 dreamed
all night of rabbits and cats. 1 was
chasing rabbit and caught it, when
suddenly it turned into the devil. -
He said that he hesitated to go to
work, for he felt something awful
would happen.
The body was brought to Grange
vile, and is being held at the Maugg
parlors, pending receipt of word from
Kokas' brothers. in Massachusetts.

bORAH BREAKS
WITH HARDING
ON LEAGUE?

Rumors that have been current for
several days, limiting at a break be-
tween William E. Borah, Republican
senator from Idaho, and Warren G..
Harding, Republican presidential nom
inee, have developed into what is a
real difference between the two men
on the league of nations idea. Sena-
tor Borah is a bitter opponent of the
league.
For time effort was made to
conceal the differences between "the
man from Idaho' and Senator Hard
ing, or at least minimize them, but
the truth of the matter has leaked
out. In fact, Senator Borah, himself,
has made the issue plain.
Speaking in Danbury, Conn.,, last
Monday night, Senator Borah, COM
menting on the reported assertion by
Candidate Harding that his views and
those of Senators Borah and John
son were entirely in accord, Senator
Borah said:
''From his service in the senate,
Senator Harding knows my views. If
he accepts them then we are in per-
feet Accord
Declaring himself uHeduivo cally op-
posed to an association with the ma
lions of Europe, he said he had moth
ing to say in favor of the proposed
substitutes for the league of nations.
GA league, COMFORT, alliance, combin-
alton, co-partnership or association
it is all the same to me, he de-
clared "'I always have opposed and
always will oppose such an alliance.
There can be no question of whom L
am supporting for president. Cox
favors going into the league while
Harding has declared in favor of stay
ing out"
Candidate Harding, however, has
made a proposal for Americas en-
trv into an association of nations, as
a substitute for league of nations,
as drawn up at the Versailles con
ference. Newspaper correspondents in
the east do not see other than at least
marked difference of opinion between
Borah and Harding.
"Whether you call the scheme a lea
que, concert of powers, an alliance
OF an association" said Senator Bo-
rah, in his Danbury speech, " they all
lead to Europe and place upon the
already Bonded backs of American tax
PAYERS their scheme of exploitation and
waste, and upon the shoulders of the
American youth the military burdens
which must eventually grow out OF
this scheme.

"brains" of the Non-partisan lea
que, and said to be the power behind
the Townley throne, addressed an au-
dience of sixty-fve or seventy per
sons in. Odd Fellows hall, Grangeville,
last Friday night.
Mr.. Mills, at the conclusion of his
speech, ordered the hat passed, and
a collection was taken to help defray
league expenses. Mr.. Mills asserted
that he did not fancy the passing
of the hat, but that the $1S fee col
lected from league members was in
sufficient to pay expenses, and they
were obliged to resort to the collec-
ton method at meetings held. The
hat was passed, and a generous offer
ing was received. Among the contri-
butors was candidate on the Re
publican ticket for county office. He
was the only county candidate OBJ

Much Money For Highways

County tables now being prepared
by the State immigration Department
for the Colorado Year Book will show
n general increase in the county tax
levies for the construction and main
tenance of highways. The levies range
from one mill to seven mills and the
total revenue to be collected by the
counties for highway purposes will be
in the neighborhood of $4,000, 900, the
highest in the history of the state, and
more than was available annually for
highway purposes from all sources in
the state ten years ago. In addition
to this there will be substantial in
creases in the amount collected this
year for highway purposes from auto
mobile license tax and from gasoline
tax, and the amount to be turned over
to the state by the federal government
from various sources for highway pur-
poses also will be larger than ever be-
fore. Apparently the total amount
available for highway purposes in the
state from all sources this year will
be in the neighborhood of s7,0O0.OOO.
