DEMONSTRATION
BY AUT0|STS
GOOD ROADS PRESIDENT
GIVES VALUABLE ADVICE
When Running on Streets Autoists
Must Turn Corners Squarely-Do
Not Make Diagonal Cutoff and Be-
come Liable for Accidents.

This forenoon a very valuable DEM
onstration regarding how to turn cor
ners with automobiles was gwen by
H. j. Taylor, president. of the good
roads association, and by DR.. w. G..
Cole. The demonstration was given
at the corner of Court and Main
streets and was witnessed by a large
number of people. Previous to the
demonstration the street corners had
been marked indicating how the turns
should be made.
Under the state law covering the
running of autos drivers are required
to keep to the right hand side of
streets. In turning corners if to the
left they are required first to proceed
straight across the street and then
turn squarely and proceed along the
right hand side of the new thorough
fare. When the turn is to the right
the driver should turn at right angles
to the right. In turning corners auto
drivers should not make a diagonal
cutoff. When such a cutoff is made
drivers make it difficult for pedestri-
ans to dodge the machines and acci-
dents are liable to occur. Besides the
square cornered method of turning
corners is prescribed by law Should
an auto driver cause an accident
his failure to conform to the
law he would be liable for damages
or for criminal negligence.
1--WE want all automobile men to
learn to turn the corners properly"
aid Mr.. Taylor today. otherwise we
will surely have an accident here
some day. l am going to ask the city
to have all the crossings
Il the business section marked off for
4 few days and to have the police
officers insist that autoists make the
urns properly"

SPAN|ARDS ARE NOW
READY TO CRY QUIT.

Madrid via Hendayen, Oct. a
With the entire Spanish force in Mo-
rocco .penned almost helplessly in the
Melilla peninsula, all Spain is bowling
for a cessation of hostilities. The war
office admitted the situation is des-
perate and ordered fifteen thousand
additional troops to Morocco. Some
Significance of the seriousness of the
situation was gained when the de-
tachment of the queens own regiment
of lancers was ordered to Melilla.
While information is being suppressed
T. is believed the Moors have the up
per hand. They are controlling the
hills skirting Melilla and making a
general advance on the Spaniards to-
day. 1t is probable that General Wey-
Ter will be called upon here to quell
internal disorders.

vince every farmer that it would be
greatly advantageous to him to have
the proposition carried into imme-
diate execution
The great advantage of this machine
over all other threshing machines is
its automatic leveling device. All COM
hined harvesters are equipped with a
leveling device, but none of them. save
this one, has the automatic leveling
device. This machine is guaranteed
to level itself, without the aid of an
operator, at all times and on the
steepest hill-sides over which machines
can be run. Special attention is called
to this splendid feature which GER
tainly commends it to all interested in |
economy in harvesting.

Affair Occurred Near Portland
Hotel as President Was Starting on
Paradc-Man Armed With 38 Cal
ibre Revolver Was Making Way
Toward Auto.

Portland. Oct. 2.-Carrying a re-
volver of heavy calibre and a po,
full of cartridges, Arthur Wright of
Lowell Center, Mass, attempted to
thrust his way toward President Taft
! today while the chief executive was
passing in an automobile, but was
disarmed and arrested before he
reached the president The affair
occurred at Sixth and Morrison
streets at the corner of the Portland
Hotel, which is the temporary Taft
hostelry. The parade in honor of Taft
has just reached the corner when a Sc
cret service man accompanying the
president saw Wright worming his
way through the crowd and called to
several policemen in the presidents
bodyguard to spring toward the man.
4 sharp struggle followed. when
Wright was handcuffed and 3S cal
ibre revolver and a score of cartridges
taken from him; also a camera.
Actions Suspicious.
He is charged with carrying con-
cealed weapons Police Captain Bail
ey. who participated in the arrest,
said Wrights actions were susp cious
Not only his manner of endeavor'ng
to reach the president. but his meth
cd of carrying the camera aroused
suspicion. Wright refused to make
any statement except to say he was
trying to get near the president to
take a picture. The police. however,
place little credence in this assertion
and believe Wright was using the
camera as a blind to get closer to the
president.
FIRST Incident of Kind.
The arrest of Wright is the first
incident of its kind occurring on the
Taft trip. Although there were sew
eral thousand in the vicinity of the
hotel, only those in the immediate
vicinity witnessed the affair. The
president did not know of the occur
renee because of a well surrounded !
bodyguard and military escort. He |
hasn't the appearance of a crank or
an anarchist, and denied he wanted |
to shoot Taft
