A Reminder OF 1908

THE following Associated \ ,es dispatchc from New York pro
yidcs a reminder OF the 1908 campaign: After a jury in general court
sessions had considered the cvr-ence for fifteen minutes It brought III
a verdict OF guilty OF forgery against Broughton Brandenburg, the mag
azine writer and Judge Swami sentenced him to Sing Sing prison or
a term OF two years to or yeais and six months. The defendant
almost collapsed when sentence u pronounced.
"Brandenburg, who was cha, ged with forging and cashing a check
Tor $50 last summer, has figured IN court proceedings for the last. two
years, notably in connection with The sale, under alleged false prctenseo,
OF n article purportng to have been written by the late Grover Cleve-
land"
1t will be remembered that during the 1908 presidential campaign
the New York Times printed a letter said to have been written by II
late Grover Cleveland, III which letter Mr.. Cleveland urged tn Ameri-
a people to defeat Mr.. Bryan i'll his candidacy fr the presidency.
denounced the letter as bogus, but the New York Times assured the
public that it a genuine and lie republican managers gave the letter
widespread circulation I
After the election it was shown concuGvely that the letter "a a
forgery, and had been sold to TIE Times by Brandenburg. 1t had.
however, accomplished its purpot c for the 1908 campaign, but the New
York Times has eve yet apoog zed to its readers for the publication
OF this fraudulent letter nor has it expressed its regret that it became

THE MOTOR TRUCK
IN THE COUNTRY

The Engineering News recently ex
pressed the opinion that one use forI
the motor truck to which it would be
difficult to place a limit is in direct
haulage over considerable distances
to save an intermediate railway jour
ney. Direct deliveries may be made
by automobile from a city wholesaler
to his customers in towns twenty or
thirty, or even forty, miles away at
less cost, perhaps, than would be in
volved in the hauling to the railway
station and hauling from station to
receiver at the end of the route, when
the various rehandlings that are made
necessary by the railway shipment are
taken into account. The saving in
cost of packing alone, where this
method of delivery is used, may often
make its adoption worth while.
There are large possibilities also
in the use of motor-propelled vehicles
in industrial plants; shops and ware
houses in place of the industrial rail
way or the overhead carrier, both of
which systems are in extensive use,"
continues the Engineering News.
with present-day shop floors of con-
crete or wood-block paving motor
trucks can be run over them with little
more friction than over the rails IF
shop tracks. A great advantage over
the rail system is that the trucks can
be run anywhere. There is no stoppage
for turntables or switches, or because
of cars blocking the line ahead as
happens so often with industrial rail
ways. In such a system, where current
for charging is available at low cost
and where the loads to be hauled are
light, storage battery trucks appear to
: have great promise. The extent of this
