f1ails ana now that the campaign Is
drawing to a close the hightoned plane
is being besmirched with a fragrant mis-
statement which will profit Judge Hall
little.
The Catleasian,s advice to the Monroe
News Star and TO the friends of Judge
Hall Is to keep cool.
GOVERNMENT BY COMMISSION.
# there be system of government
which 18th oroughly Democratic 1t is the
government BY commissions Through
this system the people are possessed Of
the power which IS signicant and COM
pels the respectful obedience OF their
servants to the viii Of the majority, the.
Office holders to do that which is right
and lawful.
Government BY commission is no idle
dream Of today. Having been tried, I'M
der the most adverse Of conditions. in
one hundred and twenty-seven cities Of
the United States, it has developed sue
cess where failure and disaster were
forecasted.
Government by commission is non
partisan. Citizens irrespective Of party
creed, authorized by law 10 vote, can
participate in the selection 81 the com
inissioners.
Instead OF municipality being gov
erned BY mayor and fifteen council
men, its affairs under the commission
form are managed BY commissioners, as
directors Of a corporation, and these be
ing paid, are held to a personal account
of their stewardship
The commissioners are elected b. d |
majority Of the qualified electors, at an
election fixed therefor.
The authority Of the commissioners Is
not centralized in the individual, and al i
though each commissioner has the man
agemeft and the supervision Of his own
neither his will nor author
ity IS absolute
The majority rule governs the com
mission ii the exercise Of their duties
This is imperative.
Connected with the system Of govern
ment 81 commission are three distinct
features which, when understood, viii
receive the unqualified approval Of ALL
good, progressive citizens.
The first IS the initiative Through
the initiative the people can compel the
council Of commissioners to action onl
any principle. measure or policy which
nay be for the pubic good, regardless of
The opposition Of the minority against it.
Through the referendum, the people
an demand and compel legislation which
viii protect the community from the
greed of individuals or Of corporations,
and ii checking measures and laws thar
would operate detrfnentally 10 tie com

The Chalmers 80" which won the Glidden
Tour carried four passengers and baggage
over every mile OF the route. 1t had power
enough to pull through streams. through
swamps and through sand. 1t had speed
enough to make every control on time: it has
a much speed as any one can use.
And in addition to endurance and reliability
YOU cannot buy more beauty, either of line or
finish than YOU get in Chalmers 80" No
car. no matter what the price, affords more
eye-delight than the Chalmers.
What more do YOU want then, in a car than
YOU can get in the Chalmers?
There has been much talk lately about auto
mobile extravaganza about people spending
too much money on automobiles. No man
need feel that he is guilty Of extravaganza in
buying a Chalmers so" at 81 500 1t would
be hard for him to invest the same amount
Of money in any better way. A car like this
will treble the time of any business man. 1t
means greater efficiency in business, and at the
same time more time away from business. 1t
means healthful en- jOyment for all the family
too.
The automobile has come to stay. 1t is a
sign Of progress. It is a necessary part Of
modern civilization. and the people will no
more give up the motor car than they will tear
the street cars.
The automobile business is here to stay, and
for those companies which have given full
value for the prices asked this business is as
sound as the Rock of Gibraltar. and will re-
main so for a long time to come.
Although some people predict this is going
to be slack year. our sales records do not
show any support Of the prediction. The in
creased volume of our business since we an
nounced our 1911 cars has been a surprise
to us.
This proves to us that we have been on the
right track all the time: first. in not trying to
build too MANY cars but in building the linl-
tied number we have built as well as they
could possibly be built: second in selling these
cars at medium prices. and at a reasonable
margin Of profit to ourselves; third. IN taking
care of our owners Just as we'll as we know
how after the cars have been sold.
After all. automobiles are built for those
who buy them: and Glidden Tours are con-
Quoted for the benefit Of the very same Deo-
DIE The thousands who contemplate buvlng
cars during the 1911 season have had nearly
all the real bio questions answered bv the
Glidden TOur-the questions Of design. OF ma
teria1s, Workmanship. endurance. reliability
The price YOU already know. so the question
Of appearance is about the only one left. AS
to that, the new 1911 models will be on exhibit
ton at the local show rooms within very
short time
We invite YOU to examine them. If the
lines. the color the finish suit YOU, YOU can
safely buy one for remenber-it's a Chal-
n7ers-the car that won the most trying test
that automobiles ever were put to-the Gid

given that it. is now possible to buy a real

All that any car can do this car has done.

That a car costing onlv $500, the lowest
priced car in the tour with only one excep-

contest ever held is more than a sensation
it is a revoution-and the effects Of it will
be felt in the automobile business for many

This tour is not only a victory for the Chal-
