CAR GOES OFF LONG BRIDGE
Pitkin Miner.

Jas. Crowley, an aged ranchman
living near Vulcan, came to Pitkin
Monday on a business trip to see M.
o Metroz. After dinner he started
home, driving Chevrolet car which
he has owned and driven about two
about three miles below town, he in
some way lost control of the car and
went off the bridge into the river.
He was thrown clear of the car and
managed to get out and was picked
up and taken into Gunnison.
Tuesday he got assistance from a
Gunnison garage and got the car on
the road. 1t was found that it would
run on its own power, so Mr. Crowley
again set forth. All went well ap-
parently until he reached the small
bridge across the Corbit canal be-
tween Collard hill and Brown lane.
Lizzie again went wild here and
plunged off this bridge into the ditch,
Tuesday.
That MIR. Crowley escaped unhurt
in both instances is remarkable, as
either jump is of sufficient height to
not only badly damage car, but So
riously injure any occupants
Much concern was felt here for his
safety after the finding of the car
and many made trips to the scene to
make sure that Mr.. Crowley was not
injured or under the car.

a wife and two children which I

congressman. In fact, practically all
the districts will see battle royal
but in the former three districts
there is an exceptionally large list OF
candidates. 1t so happens in the first
district that Sidney Anderson, pres
ent incumbent, will not seek re-elec-
ton on account of his health. This
leaves the field open to large list
of new aspirants. The same is true
in the tenth district now served by
Thomas D. Schall, who is seeking the
office of United States senator. Also
in the eighth. In the sixth district
Harold Knutson, now congressman
from that district, has field of can
didates who want to succeed him. His
recent episode, from which he was
indicated, seems to have stimulated
a large number of candidates VINO
feel that they can displace him as a
result of the notoriety he gained that
might have had detrimental result.
However, Mr. Knutson and his friends
feel that the injustice perpetrateG
against him will be substantiated by
a safe margin in votes for his return
to congress.
Here in the third Chas. R. Davis
will be opposed by August j. Andre
sen Of Red Wing on the republican
ticket, and A. c.. WEIGH, Glencoe;
Talbert Erickson, So. St. Paul; j. b.
Lohkesmoe, Red Wing, on the farm
er-labor ticket and Geo. F. Sullivan
of Jordan on the democratic ticket.
Frank Clague, congressman in the
second district, has no republican
opposition, but O. F. Swanjord of
Slayton will be his opponent on the
farmer-labor ticket in the fall cleo
ton. Oscar E. Keller of the fourth
district, Ramsey county, has opposi-
tion in all ranks. Walter H. Newton
of the fifth, Hennepin county, has
free sailing in the republican ranks,
but the farmer-labor has five and the
democrats two in the field. Gunnar
B. BjOrnson, republican and editor of
the Minneota Mascot, has been draft
ed to oppose o. ]. Kvale, farmer
labor congre ssman in the seventh
district, Volstead's old district.
There are no other congressional cam
didates so both will be nominated and
go on the ticket in the fall election.
Up in the eighth district, Duluth and
Iron Range. Congressman Larson is
also out of the race for reelection
and there are eight candidates seek
ing honor in the republican and
farmer-labor circles. Knud Wefald

him in the fall election, a republican
