SERIOUS FREIGHT
JAM NEAR HERE
Eleven Cars PILED on Track
And Wrecked on Ac-
count Broken Rail &
BRIEF TRAFFIC DELAY

One Of the most serious wrecks to
occur on the d. & R. G.. w. for some
years, and one that was very similar
to the one at Silt several months ago,
occurred last Saturday morning when
eleven freight cars on an eastbound
freight train were piled up and wreck
cd at curve a short distance below
South Canon, about eight miles west Of
Glenwood.
This was through merchandise
freight train, pulled by engine No.
1901, and it was fastening to get to
Glenwood in order to get out Of the
way Of the Panoramic Special and
trains Nos. 2 and 2.
One of the heavy rails broke square
off, causing derailment, the cars
plunging in every direction, some. Of
them being thrown across the track,
some Of them tumbling over the bank
toward the river and others being
thrown against the high bank which
is just below the auto highway.
Inasmuch as the accident occurred
at q plsee whore 1t was impossible IA
lay "shoo-fly" around the wreck,
it was necessary to lift tho wrecked
cars with immense wrecking efaHea
which were soon on the gropld, ess
wrsskins train coming from saiiaa
and another from Grand Junstisn.
Fortunately, Hugh Miller, sapsfia.
tendent Of the division, was in 0isa.

.GLENWOO LADY
WINS NOMINATION
Mrs. Elsie Robins Fopts IS
Winner Defeating Miss
Catherine Craig
HIGH SCHOOL OFFICE

Denver, Sept. 29.-Elsie Robins
Foote of Glenwood Springs, is the Re-
publican nominee for state superin-
tendent of schocls instead of Gather
inc L. Craig of Denver. Unofficial re-
turns showed that Miss Craig was the
winner, but the official count now in
progress shows that Mrs. Foote is tho
victor by 291 votes.
tional work in Garfield county. Miss
Craig is former state superintendent
of public instruction.
The above news item was received
with great joy by the many friends
of Gtars, fsete in Glenwood Springs
and Garfield county, who worked and
voted for this estimable and very ca
pable lady in the recent primary cam
'paign. :
The. unofficial returns gave Mrs.
Foote'S opponent, Miss Catherine
Craig, lead Of about 920 votes in
the state, and Mrs. Foote accepted
these figures as authentic, and wired
her congratulations to Miss Craig ON
her victory, contented1y took her place
in the sehoolroom and proceeded with
her work, just as though her name had
never been presented to the voters.
At the beginning of the campaign
she was comparatively unknown to
the voters Of the state, and although
she felt most grateful to her friends
who placed her in nomination, and to
those who supported her at the polls.
In fact she felt very much compli-
mented with the splendid vote she
received and even though she thought
she had been defeated, she was proud
of the race she had made, as she had
a right to be.
1t was therefore a very pleasing,
although genuine, surprise, when The
Post editor last Tuesday noon visited
Mrs. Foote at her home and broke the
good news to her.
Despite the pleasure. which the news
brought her, Mrs. Foote was so sur
prised that she could only express her
gratitude to her good friends in Gar
field county and other portions of the
state who supported her SO loyalty and
made her primary victory possible.
She will now enter the race with q
united Republican party behind her,
and her friends throughout the state
are Of the firm belief that she will
be victorious at the general election
on November 4, in which event the
schools of Colorado will have a prac-
tical, sympathetic and earnest friend
in the office of superintendent Of
public instruction.

Outdoor Activities At
Elm City in Swing
Arrival of Spring

Spring was officially ushered in last
Thursday but yesterday was a typi-
cal Spring day with all the glory
that comes with 1t. The sun rose IN
a clear BLUE sky and shed its warmth
over the city, making everyone feel
as If life, after all, was very much
worth while living. Birds twittered
and picked energetically at the grass
roots on the lawns where tiny river
let's of water flowed from the fastly
diminishing heaps Of snow scattered
here and there.
The streets were alive with people
who strolled about, and numerous
baby carriages were seen during t Q
afternoon. Automobiles also, appear
ed to be busy, in spite of the fact that
many Of the roads are stil' impossible.
The Kennebec River shows every
day, the warmth Of the sunehine. The
ice which two weeks ago covered the
river has broken up and floated away
up as far as the upper ticonic dam,
and all ice above here js showing good
signs of breaking up soon.
In the country about the city, the
fields are spattered with bare spots
where the dead orass shows through
and each day these spots grow in
size and Old Winters fieecy blanket
IS wearing away swiftly. Snow pond
however appears to be very solid for
some time. A heavy logging team
passed over the ice Saturday but 1t
was hard work Cor the horses to drag
their burden through twelve inches of
slush.
Some Of the roads about Water
Vile are being used by autoists quite
extensively. The Bangor State road
from the end of thn Neck in Benton
to Augusta is drying well and the
Skowhegan road is reported to be
passable. The pond road In Oakland
which runs down the east side of
Snow pand was plowed out Saturday
and the snow is melting fast leaving
about six inches of mud. The Sidney
river road has also been plowed and
autos can travel to the end Of the
town line. about four miles and half
down river.
Baseball seems to have dominated
the minds of the boys in town, who
seem to take up every precious mo-
ment before and after school hours
playing pass" Marbles, another
game Of the Spring. are seen where
the younger children play.
