A Fancy

The sweet winds blow toward the sunsets glow
And over the world there creeps
Nights shadows slow in the wales below,
While the spirit Of Nature sleeps
Genius is bent toward taking hint,
That men may wiser be,
And dreams are lent to the Orient
And its summer isles OF sea.
But we are here and the West is near
With its halo of hope and health,
Where the mountains drear and the moonlit
Each hold their volume Of wealth.
And when Dayight's ship into darkness slips,
By the shores of an inland sea,
With finger tips on her crimson lips
And her blue eyes bent on me-
An elusive sprte in the phosphor light
Of phosphorescent SEE,
A face as white the moons clear light
And fair in symmetry
Quick to the heart adventure bringing
A hope more fair than poets sung,
The soft air ringing, with sweet voice singing
Through the misty moonlight flung.
Fancy's star lights the mountain afar 1
And the shimmerng tarns beneath;
On the slender bar of Loves golden car
Our quickening dreams will wreath
Over the hills and the darling ris,
Out upon the swinging breeze,
Fancy thrills like musics trils,
And under the love-land trees
We search for the home of our pretty Dreams
And they eemsbeyond some shining cloud
Where the golden CLEAN of beauty teens
And whisper would be too loud.
Where the elfns dance in the light of star
To rhythmic tune never could hear,
No earthly scar their features mar,
For Heaven itself is
Or it may exist in that nameless list
OF islands green in tropc sea,
Where murmaids tryst in rainbow's mist
And swear fidelity
Where the moonbeams silver sleeping vale
Our dreams may breathe the perfumed air,
Where hODeS bright sail and lows prevail
All peace is mffrored there.

from his letter, the Banner has been getting

Mr.. Mckinney ran two-inch display advertisement
in four issues of the Banner. He perhaps had other
orders result Of his advertising, but if not, the
one referred to paid him for his advertising many
times over. At our present rates such ad. would

FREEDOM OF THE PRESS
Gov. Wilson Takes Firm
Stand in Granting Pardon.

In pardoning an indictment for
criminal libel against the LOuisvill,
(Ky.) Herald, Gov. Wilson takes /
firm staEd for the freedom of tbs

be suppressed only by the public
sentiment which the press only can
arouse.
The Herald was indicted in Trigg
and Galloway counties for libeling
Judge Thomas P. Cook and Denny
Smith, commemorative attorney, in
an editorial, in which those two of
ficials were criticised severely foI
failure to do their duty. The gov
ernor's defense of the press is a.

WHITE MAKES HIT
AT CHICAGO SHOW
Eastman Writes Colonel Fenner That
He and Hawkins Are Kept Busy
Answering Questions of
the Crowds

C. A Eastman, coast manager of the
White company, who has been attend
ing the automobile show at Chicago
the past week, in letter written TO
Col. Fenner of the local garage last
Thursday says:
There is no one feature at the show
that attracts more attention than the
chassis of the White steamer. An ex-
animation Of the chassis has opened
the eyes of many visitors to the SIM
plicity of construction of the Whlte.
All of the structural features of the
car are shown in the chassis-the COM
pact little engine, which occupies less
room, weighs less and has fewer parts
than any other automobile engine; the
generator, the unique steam making
device, consisting simply of nine coils
of steel tubing; the straight horizontal
drive direct from the engine to the rear
axle, and, finally, the simple, automat-
ic regulating devices which maintain
the steam at an absolutely constant
pressure and temperature without re-
curing the attention of the operator.
"Mr HaWkins<and his assistants are
kept busy answering the questions OF
those who are not we'll informed re-
garding the construction of the White.
Visitors are particularly interested IN
the means whereby all variations Of
speed are obtained without the shift
ing of gears. This feature is described
as follows: The amount of steam ad-
mitted to the engine by the throttle
determines the speed of the car. If
the throttle is opened only little way
the car moves slowly; as the throttle
is opened wider the speed of the car
increases. AS there is no friction
clutch and as the driving shaft is per-
fectly horizontal there is no loss of
power between the engine and the rear
axle. as is evident from an inspection
of the chassis.
'In the exhibit of the White company
five of the new White steamers are
shown, two of them being model M 40
horse power cars and three model o
20 horse power cars. The model M is
shown with a touring body and with a
runabOut body.
1.-The model o 20 horse power car is
shown with a standard ve-passenger
touring body with landaulet body and
also a polished chassis is exhibited

NEW SAUCER TRACK
IS NEARLY COMPLETED
First Races of Motorcycles Will Be
Held March IA, with Cracks
of East and West
Here

On March IA there will be opened in
motorcycle saucer track in the United
States, without one possible exception.
This new track has been in course of
construction for several weeks past
and the workmen yesterday were but a
few feet from the top in completing
the floor of the great structure upon
which many world records are expected
to fall, once the cracks of the country
are able to assemble here and linn
Der UP.
The track has been erected under the
supervision of famous Jack Prince, for
mer English high wheel bicycle cham
pion, known the world over as a true
sport and a square promoter.
The first races will be held on the
track on March IA and will continue
for several weeks, six meets having
been sanctioned by the Los Angeles
Motorcycle club. The fastest men of
the east have signified their intention
of coming to Los Angeles for these
races, which viii permit the coast ad-
nlirers of Paul J. Durkum to get a line
on their favOrite, who is believed by
them to be the faster of any one of
half a dozen famous eastern riders, in
Guiding SamuelSOn, Lingenfelder, Tur-
vile, Mitchell, Lawson and De Rozier.
The track must be able, under the
contract, to permit of a mile being done
at 40-second clip, and so steep have
it's sides been built that it would look as
if any driver were going at anything
less than this speed he would tum-
hle off
