NEW TURNTABLE
 |S INNOVATION
Installation of 130-Foot Structure at Winslow Is First of Kind ; Winslow Strengthened as Di- vision Headquarters
(From saturdav,s Dailvl

Something entirely new in the line of railroad turntables will be installed at Winslow beginning this week. Winslow is the new headquarters of the reorganized Albuquerque division of the Santa Fe coast lines, follow ing the removal of division head quarters from Prescott The new turntable was explained yesterday by w. Buell., foreman of the steel bridge crew from Chicago which will install the structure.
 The turntable will measure 130 feet or 30 feet longer than any turntable now in use on the Santa Fe-. lines. Instead of being driven. electrically, as are most railroad turntables, it will be driven by a 45 horsepower gasoline motor. The 100-foot turn tables at present in use are consid- cred amply large enough to carry the largest locomotive in use.
 Turntables similar in all respects to that to be installed at Winslow will be put in at Needles and at Clovis, Foreman Buell. said. Following com .pletion of this work in the south west, Buell. and his crew will leave for the Santa Fe eastern lines, where nine big steel bridges are on the ground at various points, waiting erection. Buell. said there is enough work in sight to keep his crew busy for the, next year.
 Winslow Center
 Installation nf the monster turn table at Winslow is taken locally as an indication that enlargement of the Santa Fe shops at Prescott is not contemplated by the railroad. Win slow recently was made headquarters of the Albuquerque division of the coast lines, including the Ash Fork to Phoenix line as far south as A. & C. Junction, the other lines of the former Phoenix division being in- cluded in the Arizona division of the road

Senator kellogg Seemed Worried
There was an amusing incident In
the Senate the other day when Ken
yon Of Iowa moved the passage of an
amendment which would make it
misdemeanor for any congressman
to receive compensation for any out
side employment either by salary or
fees. kellogg Immediately tried to
stop consideration of the amendment,
but was informed it was not debat-
able. He then went over to Kenyon
and had an earnest whispered con-
versation. Kenyon shook his head
and evidently refused to withdraw
his amendment. The roll call began,
and kellogg, obviously fearing the
measure would pass, hurried from
desk to desk, quite openly importun-
ing other senators to vote against the
bill. The vote was tie and kellogg
seemed relieved. kellogg was attor-
ney of record for the United States
Steel Trust and several other great
corporations before he was elected
to the senate and his patent desire
to defeat the Kenyon amendment
makes it pertinent to inquire whether
he still acts as paid attorney for any
of the great interests or receives any
emoluments through partnership ar
engagements.

Washington, d. c., July 27.-An
alliance between "wet" senator's and
members OF the agriculture bloc"
is the only thing that prevented the
success Of another attempt to hals
passage of the farm relief legislation
by adjourning the Senate until Sep
TENDER. Reactionaries OF both part
les held an informal caucus end mus
tered enough votes to adjourn. but
the steering committee Of the "Agri-
cultural bloc" moved that the Norris
bill for the formation of hundred
million dollar corporation for the ex-
port of farm products be placed next
on the calendar instead Of the Willis
Campbell anti-beer bill and all the
"wets" Joined the farmer representa-
tives in SO voting. This angered the
"drys" who now declare they will
hold the Senate in session until the
anti-beer bill is acted upon. It was
upon this slender thread that the
fate OF the much-needed farm relief
measures depended: but their fate
is by no means settled, for the reac-
tionary swets" and "drys" may set
tie their liquid differences and unite

other meritorious measures.
Ford After Nitrate Plant
OF interest to farmer is the fact
that Henry Ford is trying to buy the
Muscle Shoals nitrate plants which
were built during the war at the ex-
penditure Of millions and have since
remained idle because government
manufacture Of nitrates would de-
press prices and annoy the all-power-
full fertilizer trust Ford offers to
take 100 years lease on the plant
and to amortize the debt in 100 years
after paying 6 per cent interest. He
stipulates that he will operate the
largest nitrate plant solely for the
manufacture Of fertilizer and agrees
to limit his profits on this to 8 per
cent. He is willing to have repre-.
sentatives Of the American Farm
Bureau, the National Grange and the
National Farmers Union audit his
books to insure that he keeps costs
down and profits below the 8 percent
limit. Scientists employed by the
government plant frankly state
Ford will run 1t more efliciently and
with more Of public purpose than
the present administration and they
want to see the sale contaminated
because they believe It will mean
cheaper fertilizer for the farmers.

Mt. Sterling Defeats
Morehead Nine

The Mt. Sterling Baseball team
was victorious Sunday over the fast
nine from Morehead by the score of
9 to 3. The game was one Of the
fastest and cleanest played on the
local lot this year, not score being
made until the fifth inning when Mt.
Sterling forced one across on a wild
throw. In the sixth inning Morehead
scored all three of their tallies ON
clean hits. Mt. Sterling sewed the
game up in the eighth inning when
the Morehead boys went up in the
air, allowing the locals to score 5
runs. The "Mountaineers" protest.
ed vigorously against the decisions
Of the umpire, several of their
"kicks" being apparently justified.
With the exception of the fatal
eighth the Morehead boys played a
fast article of ball and the pitching
Of their tall lanky hurler, termed,
"Jib Bob" was a decided feature Of
the game. The Mt. Sterling boys
played the best game of the year,
not being credited with single error.
The playing of Pergram at short was
especially brilliant.

Wreck on the c. & 0.

At Tygart, near Olive Hill, Satur-
day afternoon, train No. 20, due in
this city at 4 :35, collided with car
loaded with ballast which quarry
people permitted to run out on the
main line. Engineer H. S. Meadows,
of Lexington, was badly cut and
bruised and the front end of the
engine was badly damaged. The
train was delayed 4 hours, passing
through this city about $3.50 P. M.
When the accident occurred the pas
senger train was running at high
rate of speed and it is said to be
miraculous that the wreck did not
prove to be disastrous.

Automobile Accident

"A roadster driven by Allie Clay
Peed and a touring car driven by
John William, both of this county,
collided late Saturday afternoon at
the corner Of High and Sycamore
streets, and owing to the fact that
both cars were going at moder-
ate rate Of speed more serious ac-
cident was averted. Mrs. Luther Ma
son, who was riding in the William
car, was the only one injured and
she is suffering from fracture Of
the small bone in the leg and a Sc
verely wrenched back. Mrs. Mason
was taken to the Mary Chiles hos

and is resting as comfortably as can
be expected. Both the William car

Infant Dies

Robert Louis, one year-old son Of
Perley Cairns and wife, died on Sat-
urday from an attack of chronic
darrhea. The mother was Miss Re-
becca Calk, daughter of Price Calk
and wife. They were here on visit
to her parents, when the child be-
came sick and died. After funeral
services at Pineville Sunday the
child was buried in the cemetery
there.
The remains were accompanied
from here by the father, mother,
two sisters and Mrs. C. M. Perkins
and S. J. Calk.
This, another flower just in the
bud, has been plucked from the
earth garden to be transplanted in
the garden where Jesus is. 1t was
he who said "suffer the little ones
to come unto me-" The little one will
be missed here, but how comforting
it is that he is SPARED the anxieties,
the troubles and sorrows that would
have fallen to him had he been per-
mitted to have lived to a ripe old
age. The child is not dead, it is Just
asleep to awaken in the arms of Him
who declared unless you become as
one of these little children you can
not inherit the kingdom.

Chautauqua Here
Again Next Year

The announcement that the Red
path Chautauqua will be here again
next year will be glad news to, the
lovers of high class wholesome en-
tertainment. While the program Of
fered this year was not thought by
many to be up to the usual standard,
taken as. a whole the entertainments
were very instructive and highly en-
joyed by the large crowds in attend
ance. Over 600. tickets were signed
up for the next year and the local
committee guaranteed the Redpath
people the customary 700. The
Chautauqua is considered the high
est class of entertainment that
comes to Mt. Sterling during the
year and the low cost Of the tick
cts make it possible for many to see
a class of entertainment that would
otherwise be impossible.
"The Man From Home" on Friday
might was especially well presented,
and on the closing night Ralph Bing-
lam appeared at his best, keeping
the large audience in an uproar
