AUTOMOBILES

The average reader has no idea Of
the extent and variety of the automo-
bile business. There is on exhibition
at the show in Boston 129 kinds of
motor carriages and cars and it is said
this does not begin to be the number
of kinds on the market. Of these 102
are for passenger or family use and
y for commercial purposes. If the
truth IS told, there is not much velvet
in the business for the sellers because
there are SO many persons in it and
the competition is so sharp that a
great deal Of money is lost The fever
for these machines is nowhere near as
high ia the east as at the west for the
ownership Of cars. 1t is stated that
IN one western village Of not over 3.goo
population. as motor cars are owned.
This Is thought to be the champion

that on account of the lengths to which

NOT AN ECONOMY.

There is no reason why the govern
ment of the United States should fur
nish business cards free printed on
government envelopes; but house bill
No. 3O75 has been introduced to check
this deficit making scheme, declaring
:" that from and after the approval of
this act it shall be unlawful for the
postoffice department, or any officer,
head of bureau, or chief of division
thereof, to print or have printed, or sell
or offer to sell any stamped envelope
bearing upon it a printed direction
giving the name of any individual,
firm, or company, or any number of
any postoffice box or drawer, or any
street number or the name of any
building to which it shall be returned
If uncaued for or undelivered: Pro-
vided, That this shall not apply to
those envelopes printed with a return
card left blank as to name, address,
box, drawer, street, number, or build
ing, and which only give the name of
the town or city, with the state, dis
trict or territory"
The postoffice department is trying
to decrease its deficit and the passage
of this bill will help. Free printing is
giving away work and that is in effect
giving away money. There is no rea-
son why the government should go into
private printing gratis in competition
with the printing houses of the coun-

THE DOLLAR MARK IN THE RACE

It would be useless to deny that the
dollar figures conspicuously in all po-
lftical contests, and it has become such
a factor that in most states of the un-
ion it Is declared that no poor man can
be elected governor, whatever his quail
iffcations.
1t is apparently said for a truth in
this state, Massachusetts and Yer
mont and in the last named state the
question is being discussed whether
the man greasy with dollars has a
smoother run for the governorship
than the man equipped with brains and
ability.
The Newport Express says upon this
subject: 1.-The first qualification to-
ward a poor man being governor of
Vermont is to become rich. Indeed, we
almost consider this to be a qualif-
cation: for, If a man is qualified to
gain riches through his own personal
efforts, he is certainly qualified to
handle the reins of government in q
susiness-like way"
The Barre Times says: "a healthy
public sentiment against the expendi-
lure of money to secure the governor
hip nomination has been developed in
Vermont during the last few weeks.
4 is sentiment which is worth Guilt
Eating. until the time comes when the
soor man has as much show as the
Itch man to get Office and that, too,
without the backing of some powerful
organization"
The st. Adams Messenger asks: as
very rich man a statesman simply be-
sause he knows how to make money :?
is 1t not possible to think of a we'll
nigh endless variety OF ways in which
men may make money and still be un-
htted for the governorship, indeed be
peculiarly disqualified for it because of
their money making?'
And we still have faith in democracy
when we see the people making way

ognizing it as a prime factor in gov
