MCDONALD WINS
BOUTIFR0M 0RR|S

The wrestling game is being revived
about the state this fall, one of the
first towns to line up being Munich
where last week, Angus Mcdonald of
East Grand Forks, won the decision
over Roxie Orris, the pride of Munich.
Orris won the first fall after eigh-
teen minutes and SIS seconds of labor
on the carpet. In the second spasm
Orris started out like a bear cat, but
was forced to the mat with a toe hold
They went six minutes.
Mcdonald took the third fall, with
scissor hold, after twelve minutes OF
severe milling.
In the preliminaries, the ATLAS Kid
and Palmer the Peerless" did the
stunt. Palmer won the first fall and
Atlas" the second. The match went
to Palmer when Atlas" refused to
come on for the third mixup.
Colonel Winecke was the third man
on the carpet and is said to have given
great satisfaction.

FAST GROWTH OF
AUTO INDUSTRY
Figures Reveal Some Startling In.
Creases Made During Most
Critical Period

Some interesting figures on the
growth of the automobile industry
have been compiled by the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor at
Washington. They carry the industry
from 1904 to 1909, covering the most
critical period in it's existence. The
extraordinary growth last year is not
included, but the increases shown ev-
en- up to 1909, are startling.
From this official report it appears
that in 1904 the number of salaried of.
Gals and clerks employed in the in.
dustry was 1,181; in 1909 the number
had increased to 9,233. The acreage
number of wage earners in the same
period increasd from 12,O49 to 1921
The number of establishments in
creased 81 per cent; capital invested

653 per cent; cost of materials, 901
per cent; value added by manufacture,
500 per cent; average number of
wage earners employed during the
year, 52S per cent; amount paid for
wages, $50 per cent; number of sal
aried officials and clerks, 6S2 per
cent; amount paid in salaries, 654 per
cent; miscellaneous expenses, 3S9 per
cent; primary horsepower, SAT per
cent
There were 743 establishments in
1909 and It's in 1904, an increase of
3l7 per cent The capital invested, as
reported in 1909 was S173,S37 900, a
gain of s15G753, 900, or 653 per cent,
over s23 ,oS4,o 900 in 1904. The average
capital per establishment was approx
mately s234,O00 in 1909 and 1870, 900 in
1904.
The value of products was S249,2O2,-
900 in 1909 and S30,034,6OO in 1904, an
increase of s21s,16s,0OO or 73o per
cent The average per establishment
was approximately s335,0o0 in 1903
and s16e,000 in 1904. The cost of ma.
terials used was s13l ,646 900 in 1909
as against S13,151 900 in 1904, an in
crease of 11S,495, 900 or eO1 per cent
The value added by manufacture
was SILT $4,000 in 1909 and s16,SS3,
900 in 1904, an increase of s1OO,673,
900 or 596 per cent. This item form
ed - per cent of the total value oil
products in 1909 and Sc per cent il
1904. The value added by manufact
ure represents the difference between

on them. 1t is the best measure of the
! relative importance of industries.

BIG CONVENTION,
Good Roads Meeting To Be Held in
January.

January l and Il are the dates that
have been decided upon for the FEEDER
al Aid Good Roads convention of the
American Automobile association, to
be held in Washington, D. c., in con-
lnctlon with other cooperating bodies
interested in up-to-date highways con-
struction and systematic maintenance.
1t was the consensus of opinion that
January, after the holiday recess,
would insure larger and more rep
resentative attendance from the entire
country.
lnthe discussion of the subject at
the November meeting of the A. A. A.,
executive committee, attention was
drawn to the countrywide sentiment
which has accumulated in favor of
government participation in national
highways building. No less than SO
measures have been introduced in con-
gress during the past year, and every
member who has been introduced in
congress during the past year, and
every member who has thus indisput-
ably placed himself on record will be
invited by President Robert H. Hoop
er to enlarge upon the merits of his
particular measure at the Washington
gathering. 1t is safe to say that NO
such army of roads enthusiasts as will
gathr at the Willard hotel on January

national capital large attendance be
ing assured by the plenteous replies
