show is again seen at Madison Square Garden during the week of the national automobile show, which this season is January 1623. The facts in relation to these two big functions, however, show that the seats at the horse show have brought less of recent years and that the at tendance has not increased, while each season the annual automobile show in the Garden has been a greater event and more largely at tended.
 H. F. Grant of Boston, who has been rapidly coming to the front as peer among the top-nOtch racing drivers, will drive the Locomotive car entered in the Savannah race by Louis J. Bergdoll of Philadelphia. Grant won two firsts and Q second with his Locomotive car on the Providence, R. l., track October To-. In fact, he has not failed to finish one, two or three in any race he has Cntered. In the Savannah contest he will be pitted against the biggest special racing cars of Europe with the regular stock chaises of the Lo- comotive company's siX-cylinder car.
 It is pretty much the same old Vanderbilt cup race. after all.
 It is proposed to run the Long Is land motor parkway as a toll road and make it pay. This being the case it seems improbable that there is any truth in the criticism that charges the managers with arrogance ana high handedness. It would hardly be good business policy for the directors of truly public speed way to take the attitude of the fla nous Vanderbilt, now deceased, who said, 'The public be damned"
 Ever since some drivers in a hill climbing contest at Albany struck for mechanically fastened tires on their cars last spring, the safety of this type of tire has been appealing more and more to the racing con tingent There has been hardly any recent race in which some entrants have not declined free tires of some sort and bought some of the bolted- on type Not only for track work is their advantage being realized. but for road races also. There will be several cars in the Vanderbilt cup race fitted with the Fisk bolted-On tire, as there were in the Briarcliff and Lowell road races and as there will be at Savannah.
 Dark, on a loneiy country road, and no match with which to light the lamp, This is a troublesome po- sition to the careless mOtorist. A little light on the subject of what to do when thus in the dark is given by an inveterate smoker who evolved the idea one windy day when, with out forethought he had used up all his matches. He says: "Disconnect one of the wires of the spark plug and place a piece of waste saturated with oil between the plug terminal and the end of the wire, so as to make the spark jump through the waste A small piece of waste is enough, and great care should be taken not to fire the gas fumes from the carburetter."

 When they heard that the Horse Show society would this year. for the first time, add an exhibit of carriages to the fete of the equines in Madi- son Square Garden, the automobile enthusiasts naturally wondered if the popularity of the motor car has become so great that it has lessened that of the high-bred horses.

Andy" Smith, who drove his El more racer, the Bulldog" through from Los Angeles in a trial trip over the Los Angeles-PhOeniX course, shipped his car back Friday night over the Southern Pacific and went on the same train. During the day he was the guest of E. W. Bacon of the Southwestern Auto Co, and was taken out to the fair track and shown the ostrich farm in one of the garage cars. He said he had been royalty entertained while here, but that there was one gentleman whom he was sorry he did not meet and that was Marshal Moore.
 T understand that MT. Moore wanted a little talk with me-" said Smith. flor the Bulldog did go up Washington street at a pretty good clip this morning. You see, the Bull dog suddenly remembered he buried a bone up by the Hotel Adams, and he was in hurry to get there to see if it was still there My apologies to Marshal Moore. I will try to make the Bulldog behave on my next visit to your city"

Second place went to Guy Seyfried in a White, 3O-horse power stock car. This car and driver will also be at the fair races.
 The White Flyer" is fitted with a 1908 model 20horse power engine and 1905 model body. Its other parts also are stock, being merely assem- bled in a manner different from that on the ordinary automobile. It is owned by c. NJ. Blair of Billings, Mont, who uses it exclusively for racing Three years ago the same car was driven by Webb Jay, who broke several records with it. Sey- fried's car is a stock model White stripped.

 Arthur Ainsworth of the Phoenix Auto company, returned from Los Angeles Friday with a lot of motor news under his hat. Nothing has yet been heard from Bigelow, who took the Rec car back after his trip to Phoenix over the course of the great cross country automobile race Latham returned on the train, but nobody knows where Bigelow is," said MT Ainsworths
 At the Locomobile garage they said that Leavitt would undoubtedly post his entrance fee in the race as soon as he returns from a trip to Seattle. His Locomobile roadster is stripped for the Ascott park 24- 4-hour race, and when that is over Leavitt will probably make a test trip over the Los Angeles Phoenix course If Leavitt enters, F. C. Fenner is sure to come in also. Leavitt has just ordered forty ready inflated tires that can be snapped on without loss of time"
 MT. Ainsworth had two new Tour ists shipped from Los Angeles, one of which arrived yesterday. It is seven passenger, 50 h. D 4-cylinder '09 model. It has four speeds, select i've type of transmission and double ignition system, beside other late Improvements. It is the first of the '09 Tourist models to reach Phoenix, as this years Tourist models will not be ready for shipment till Janu- ary l. Another Tourist which will arrive later on is 40 h. p. model s. It will have straight dashboards in stead of the usual curved ones. It has three speeds and is fitted with the selective type of transmission The price of this car will be $2.25O.
 F. c. Fenner. who will probably drive his White Steam car in the race from Los Angeles to Phoenix. will enter three crack White Steam cars, and their drivers that have re- gently smashed things in the east, in the Territorial Fair races.
 The big day for automobiles at the fair, other than the day of the arrival of the cars in the race from Los Angeles to Phoenix, will be We'd nesday, November II, when practi- cally the entire afternoon will be de voted to that sport.

State Tax Commissioner, showed by the
colonel's own confession that corpora

fixed by the corporations themselves.
Not only so. but the information upon
which the Commissioner bases his con
illusions are not accessible to anybody.
The Commissioner, he said, regards
this information as absolutely conf

much talk over economies, a director

quickly-"that's private, sir, that

Mr. Bruce, however
attacked this theory, declaring that the
reports were made up by interested parties
who would not, naturally, desire to increase
the valuation of their property for taxation
purposes.
At an Interstate Commerce meeting
about year ago an analysis of some
Western railroad evidence developed the
fact that for freight-rate purposes rail
roads claimed to be worth $40, 600 a
mile. Before State tax commissioners,
however, the same people assessed their
roads as worth only $1,000 mile.

Suggestion.

If the State Senate rule, adopted
Thursday, stands, all Legislative bills,
local as well as general, will be printed
hereafter
One other rule is necessary provision
for and appointment of real editor for
each House of all bills after having
passed second reading
Consider this expression in the cleo
ton law, for instance, passing four full
readings, printed and bound-"the vote
last casted.'
The Legislature has printers and fold
ers in plenty-why not at least two
editors, more important if possible,
than both printers and folders?
