will be pleased to know that in
Round the World from New

mention was made in these col
umns last week, opportunity will
be given them to witness some
of the finest autos in the world

A western car not hitherto men
toned is possibility. There is
every reason to believe that when
the race starts on February Is
the American competitors will
outnumber the foreign. The su-
periority claimed for foreign
cars, which has been vigorously
denied by the American manu-
facturers, will thus be tried out
in the contest across the United
States and Alaska and, with the
advantage of better acquaintance
with the conditions and the
greater adaptability and resour-
cefullness of the American drlv-
er, there is reason to believe
that the American car will not
suffer by the comparison. De-
tails Of the trip across the CONT
nent will be announced within a
few days. For the run to Chica-
go a five day schedule has been
laid out This will give the time
between Chicago and Omaha
about two days, since they will
be allowed better speed than in
the more ohickly settled east.

DR.. Orr comes into our midst highly
recommended, having had fine sue
cess in his profession before coming

opening here and being favorably
impressed with this city and its
future prospects decided to locate
here.

to none outside of the large cities
and it is rarely excelled even there.

public to. call and look over his
ofhces,which invitation will undoubt-
edly be accepted by a1arge number
of our citizens who are interested n

activities. mo pent-up Utica" of
single city's aggrandizement need
contract the powers of any set of
men ambitious to serve their state
with the federation's aid. It will be
booster of boosters in every quarter
of Minnesota.
Another way in which the fedora
ton NAV be of infinite service to
Minnesota will be found in its
adaptability to the purpose of uni
tying business sentiment in favor of
desirable and against undesirable
legislation. An organization which
voices the sentiment of practically
all the business clubs and associa-
tons of the state will necessarily
exercise more influence with legisla-
tors than any isolated body, or num-
Der of bodies acting separately,
which may be viewed with suspicion
as having. perhaps, some local axes
to grind or particular interest to
serve. To the legislative committee
of the federation men with proposals
for future legislation may we'll resort
for securing an examination and re-
port before introducing a measure
crude or i'll adapted to the end de-
sired; perhaps something to insure
the passage of which all the influence
of the federated clubs might be
called into use.
