Detroit, Mich. In recognition OF ue

will crafty every lover OF motoring 10
that country.
The award to the Cadillac company
"a based upon the remarkable stand
ardization test conducted In the sum
mer OF 1905 by a specially selected
committee representing the Royal Au
tomobile club.
The conditions surrounding the test
were not only unusual, but most oras'
tic and severe. Three Caoillac car
in charge OF the committee from the
Royal Automobile club were driven
from the London sales branch OF the
Cadillac company TO the famous brook
lands track-a distance or some ID
miles. Under the most searching sur

and completely disassemoled-
The parts thus torn down were
thrown into a conglomerate heap
when a certain point in the process
OF dismantling had been reached, q

IN one side and an entirely new set OF
narts substituted and the entire col
lection thrown together In a single
heap.
With the committee still maintain
ing a watchful scrutiny, the work OF
rebuilding the three cars from TINS
haphazard heap was then begun. The
three cars were built up in this re
markable manner-spanners anc
screwdrivers being the only tools EN-
ployed in reassembling, and no par
being touched by file or emery cloth
and taken without delay 10 the track
and put through the PAGES in a 500

All three cars responded perfectly
TO this heroic test. negotiating the oo,
miles at almost record-breaking speed
without hitch or skip. and without the

THE LESSON OF TARIFF MAKING.

The attention of the country, which
has been fixed as it never was before
on the method of making tariff laws,
should not be relaxed until the new
bill becomes a law.
1t must be admitted that this should
be adjusted with reference to the in
terests and just claims of the largest
number; that it should be based on
a national policy, not on the demands
of particular interests. An attempt
has been made by the committee on
ways and means to put an unwarrant
ed enormously increased tax on hosiery
and gloves. This brought forth such
an outer from the women of every
section of the country that the finance
committee of the senate has recon-
mended the duties on these articles
should not be increased. This does not
mean that the senate's recommenda-
ton will be the law. After being de-
bated in the senate for some time, the
bill will be referred to a committee
composed of members from the house
and senate. and it is there the real
work of making the new tariff will
occur
Statistics show that the hosiery and

THE ELECTION TOMORROW.

The city election will take place
tomorrow, closing campaign which
has excited little interest because from
the start it seemed so one-sided and
so nearly devoid of issues The pol
icy of the republicans is to progress
along the lines which have been so
satisfactorily followed. There has been
no popular protest against the course
which has been pursued, but on the
contrary, taxpayers and citizens gen.
orally, when they have expressed
themselves, have done so in favor of
a continuance of the present extreme
ly satisfactory regime.
The policy of the democratic party
has been one of indefinite dissent
On one point the platform is a little
less vague than on any of the 9TH
ers. 1t denounces the extravaganza
of the present administration.
Yet every taxpayer knows that the
existing municipal administration is
lHc IlOSl cCOHOllliCdl lIlG city ptIIidpS
ever had, consistent with progress.
1t was in this regime that the prac-
tice of issuing city warrants against
non-existing funds was discontinued,
thus preventing reckless expenditure
which had always been so convenient
before.
The rate of taxation has been re-
duced in spite of the great work that
has been accomplished and the many
improvements which have been in
stalled.
Is this the kind of an administra-
ton that voters think should be
charged with extravaganza? They
viii answer this question tomorrow.
Whatever the democrats might do
if they should gain control of the gov
eminent we do not know. But we
do know what Lloyd Christy would
do; what Charlie Stauffer would do,
and what John A. Marshall would do
and what they will do.

THE GLOBE MAY DAY.

1t was with commendable promptitude
that Sheriff Thompson of ella county
put his foot on the red flag at Globe
on Saturday. AriZonians may be
proud of the citizenship of Globe and
union labor as represented there which
threw a wet blanket on the May Day
demonstration. Under the guise of
socialism a handful of anarchists was
preparing to insult Americanism. 1t
was harder on socialism than it was
on Americanism. There are many
types of socialism and two distinct
ones. There is the kind which pro-
poses by education and otherwise
peaceful means to bring about a
condition of society which others than
socialists regard as ideal, though most
people regard it as impossible-never
to be attained. Socialists of this kind
command the respect of the society
which they propose to subvert. Their
ranks embrace men and women of all
NioSSS1, WI hAi6 90
scholars-and all, thinkers.
There is the other kind of socialists
which nominate a life convict in a
penitentiary for president of the
United States as an insult to the
nation. Socialists of this kind are
made up of two clasess-misguided
working men and idlers. There are
no scholars, no thinkers among them
1t is not their aim to substitute, but
to destroy. Whatever they may call
their doctrine it is anarchy and their
emblem is the red flag as hostile to
the stars and stripes as were the
stars and bars.
There is no place in this country
for the red flag. The spirit behind
it is so hateful as to arouse the re-
sentiment of all patriotic citizens and
should on all occasions invite the
prompt action of the authorities as it
provoked at Globe on May day.
