Waterbury evening Democrat., 1907-04-26
Au Roads 10 Success Lead 10 the Euening Democrat
From Printers Ink

A newsletter was asked Dy rep. resentative of Printers Ink what pa pers sold the largest number of copies in Waterbury and answered, without hesitation, the New York Journal. Confining his answer to the city alone, he said the Democrat. This appears to be the general opin- ion.
 Continuing his investigation this Printers Ink representative says he found clothing dealer who said his best returns came from the Demo- crat; shoe dealer who patronizes the three papers, but ranks the Dem- ocrat first; a policeman and a post man who said the Democrat was the leading paper. The total of the rep resentative's gathered opinions shows the three daily papers close together, but with the Democrat leading ill the matter of conformity to local politics and popularity.

The Democrat brings results to the advertisers, and this is fully proved daily. Read what advertisers say.
 A short time ago a man came hur. riedly into the Democrat office and requested that Q rent ad which ap- pearcd for the first time the evsning before be taken out. 1.-The place is rented and we want to stop the crowd of people from calling on us." he said. ''I3e sure and take it out. Don't let it appear again." It is the same story with other advertisers. Recently a man who had lost some thing put his head inside the door. A broad smile covered his countc. nance. 'That little ad did the busi- ness. gentlemen. and your paper is all right. and from this incident and others that have come to my notice, I am convinced that the Democrat is read by almost every person in Wa terbury."

AUTOS TO HUNT NORTH POLE.
Cars Being Build to Whiz Over the
Tce

NEW YORK. April 9.-Admiral B. S. Os-
bon. secretary of the Arctic Club, which has
headquarters at No. 132 East 23d street is
authority for the statement that six auto
mobiles are being built here and abroad for
individual "dashes" to the north pole. The
secretary says that two of the cars have
been perfected by DR.. Frederick A. Cook of
Brooklyn, who once went to the far north
with Commander Peary. a brother of the
doctor is said to have built the machines at
Calicoon. this state, under closed shed
away from the eyes of the inqulsitve.
A third automobile for exploration work
| in the polar regions has been built to the
order of Anthony F'iala. the leader of the
Ziegler expedition. which was wrecked In
ice in the winter of 1903 1904 Admiral
Osbon announced yesterday He added that
| he was not at liberty to tell for whom the
other three automobiles were planned. but
| he said that they were intended for three
| distinct expeditions. The admiral pointed
| to the model of an automobile which hung
| In the club rooms and said:
Each of the six automobiles which are
| intended for polar research is either copied
| after Is an improvement on that model
up there. This model was built by letter
carrier In Alaska territory. He has a route
covering hundreds Of miles near the arctic
regions and he uses an automobile, of which
| that is model He navigates immense
| bodies of water with his machine, for 1t is
| a water traveller as well as an ice trotter.
Inc revolving gear Wnicn turns the rear
! wheels while the machine Is on solid ice or
| land is fitted with blades which drop down
and propel the craft when open water is
encountered. These blades. fitted in on the
| idea of paddle wheel. are forced up and
| secured the moment they come In contact
with anything firm. so that the adaptable
| ity of the automobiles for land is as effec-
| tive as for water.
THE model shows the automobile shaped
something like lifeboat so far as the cock
pit or living quarters are concerned At
night the machine can be covered over for
sleeping quarters and its occupants are in
| that way protected from the elements
| AN automobile Is the only safe thing to
| use in reaching the pole. 1t is quicker and
| more reliable than sledges and Esquimau
! dogs. 1t was two-mile lead or open
water which stopped Peary's advance in
| his late dash toward the pole Had he pos
sessed a machine built on these lines he
| might have reached his goal. An arctic au-
| tomobile can be carried on the deck of an
| ice penetrating ship and be put over the
| side and into use when the vessel can get
| no further. I am sure that the man who
| discovers the mystery which Is buried at
| the pole will do so with the assistance Of
| an automobile"
