w HILE the E. R. Thomas Motor
w company has not mace any de-
cided changes in It's 1910 models. par
ticularly In It's two larger ones (thc
models F and K), their Little Six and
Town car show several rcfinements and
additions.
For 1910 the company will market
three chassis. Thomas model M"
$40. the *" 60 and the "R" Town
car 4-28
The long stroke motor which has
attained such popularity in Europe and
which engineers have conceded to be
the best form of engine construction
has been made one of the essential
features of both the new Thomas
model M and Town car.
The advantage of the long stroke
engine is that II does not have to re-
volve SO fast to deliver its power. In
other words, the long stroke motor will
wear for a much longer time than a
short stroke motor.
Large gas passages and valves one
half the diameter OF the cylinders,
coupled with the long stroke engine,
have produced an engine which Is so
flexible that II can be driven at any
speed from two miles an hour to 60 on

N spite of tho humdrum life of

mained firmly implanted in most OF
us. The advent of the modern auto
mobile and the ease with which 1t lent
itself to the demands OF swift. safe
and private transportation have result
ed In an Increasing appreciation OF the
beauties of O landscape, have enhanced
interest In life, and bcguled many an

This ia the pleasure side OF tho ques-

Importance, Is the utility of the mod
ern motor car as o time saver par eX-

perhaps with even greater force to the
automobile used for business purposes.

mobile offers the advantage not oniy
of greater speed and unlimited endur-

TELLS Of PLAN
To DEFEAT THE
IS CANDIDATES
Adolph Munter gave out the fol-

Adolph Munter gave out the fol-
lowing interview today:
"The commission charter COM
mittee has been informed that the
enemies of the commission form of
government have pretty clearly de-
vised plan by which they hope to
defeat the ticket of Is men chosen
at the mass meeting in Elks' tenn
pie last Friday night to run for the
freeholders' committee, for the
purpose of preparing a charter that
will give Spokane the commission
form of government.
"The plan, according to our infor-
nation, is not to place in the neld
a ticket of men frankly opposed to
the commission form of govern
ment, in opposition to the commits
sion ticket; the desire of the citi-
zens of Spokane for that kind of a
charter is too well known to risk
the certain humiliation such open
battle would invite.
Instead, the plan is to procure a
number of more or less eminent
citizens who are opposed to the
commission form of government, to
run upon their personal standing
and acquaintance in the community,
without committing themselves
very strongly one way or the other
upon the question of the commits
sion form of government for Spo-
kane"
