One day last week Dr. Brown was
i Mr. Benson's Pierce Arrow sedan
collided with Mr. Palmer's Ford us
'- the latter was crossing the highway
coming to this city. Mr. Benson was
alone in hla car driving home to
Portland from Salem where he had
been In discharge of duties pertain
ing to his office. Mr. Palmer was al
so alone In the Ford.
Ilolli Speeded I'p
There was nothing to obstruct the
observation of either driver and both
claim to have seen the other's car
approaching. Mr. Palmer said lie
' noticed the sedan coming down the
road at a lively rate of speed, but
presumed that it would slow down,
as he had the right of way. He gave
his machine more speed thinking he
would be able to cross the road be
fore Mr. Benson's car reached the
crossing. But Mr. Benson had - the
same thing In mind and as a result
the big Pierce Arrow struck the Fori
on the' left side and carried it fifty
feet or more. When he saw that
collision was inevitable Mr. Benson
turned to the left and as the machines
came together Ihe big car turned
half way around and went into the
ditch, landing on its side. It was com
pletely wrecked and it is believed
that the Ford was damaged beyond
successful repaids. The mail carrier
was bruised on one side of his face
and across . the stomach as he was
rushed against the steering wheel. If
he is not internally Injured he will
recover. Mr. Benson, although his car
was wrecked the worst, escaped with
out Injury.
Happened at 5:30 O'cloek
" The accident happened about five
thirty last evening, and in less than
twenty minutes nearly half the town
was on the scene to view the wreck
age. After satisfying himself that Mr.
Palmer was safe and ussured 'him
that he would be remunerated for
deep. The water proved to be eleven
degrees hard, and was a disappoint
ment to the berry king, especially
when he went to take a bath. Now
the difficulty has all been overcome.

his loss, the millionaire lumbermanpartment teacher of the public school
stepped into another car and contin
ued his Journey as unconcerned as if
nothing had happened, .
Mr. Palmer thinks his car was
running ' at about . twenty 'miles
per hour when lt , by the Pierce
Arrow, and said Mr,,. '.Benson was
probably driving twenty five or thir
ty. Mr. BensOn loft orders to have hla
car removed from the' ditch, and ir
was hauled out with a tractor soon
after the owner left. '
Mr. Benson said, in discussing the
accident with Mr. Palmer, "I think
you were as much to blame as I, but
I want to be fair In the matter a
ear is nothing to me." A man driving
In a car not far behind the Benson
Redan at the time -of the accident
stated that Palmer had the right of
vay, and that the accident was the
result of carelessness on the part of
the highway, commissioner. Howev
er this may be, Air. Benson expresa
fd a willingness to settle all damagon,
iiiid his manner made a good impre,
slon upon Mr. Palmer and all who
congregated at the scene '
Is Second Accident
This Is the second accident that has
happened near Hubbard, on the high
way. In as many days. The evening
previous, a man who refused to gle
his name, met with an accident whlcn
was even more serious than the one
, last evening. From a statement "ie
made at the doctor's office it seems
that he was driving at a pretty hig'i
speed when his car went off the
pavement. In attempting to get back
he turned too short and the machine
turned completely over. Sleeping in
the 'back seat was a little girl four
years old. The other passengers were
a woman and a seven year old boy.
The girl's arm was broken, the-boy
sustained a fractured leg and the
woman was terribly lacerated and
bruised. The driver escaped withiut
injury. Further than this they refus
ed to make a statement, and the man
positively refused to be Interviewed
by a reporter.. He said he had rela
tives whom he did not want to know
of the accident. There was talk of
holding the party until they did make
an explanation. Their action cauao-l
many to suspect that they may have
had no right to be traveling togeth
er, The next morning the man tele
phoned to Portland arid a littor lat
er a car came and took them in the
direction of Portland. The car wns
also removed, and it was a " wreck.
The number of the car was not ob
tulned. ... ;

By .placing the driver's' seat well forward and locating
the steering wheel post and foot pedals at the left hand
side of the motor, the cab space in the Samson 3-4 Ton
Truck is eliminated. This adds about 33 1-3 per cent more
loading space.
This is but one of the many unique features of Samson
design that combine to afford the utmost in farm truck
utility. - - .
Samson Trucks are new, different and outstanding.
They have the very rare combination of wide utility
and great economy in first cost and operation.
Their superior, special features put them in a class
by themselves entirely apart from any other type oi
truck known.
There are hundreds of other ways in which the exclu
sive Samson features will distinctly benefit your pocket
book. ; '
Let us actually prove how and why. Let us show you
on your own farm. You have nothing to lose except oy
waiting and everything to gain.
