GOOD ROADS PROBLEM

Topeka Orders for Cars Con-
tinue Heavy.

With the extensive rains of the last
month, the fall business outlook from
the standpoint of Topeka motor car
dealers has increased some 200 per
cent. Every local dealer is encour-
aged by the present situation and feels
that this fall will witness tremen-
dous demand for cars not only in To-
| peka over the entire stats.
The use of the automobile in Kansas
has become a business proposition and
the cars have been long ago removed
from the luxury column. To the
farmer or business man, his car is not
alone a convenience and pleasure,
but is practical in business way.
Good roads have promoted the oppor-
tunities of the automobile in Kansas
But a car costs real money and neith-
er. the farmer nor BUSH, ess man will
invest in a machine when the financial
outlook is not good.
| Two months ago the hot dry weather
| in Kansas put a crimp IT the automo-
bile sales. There was a falling off in
demands and dealers began to fear q
slump in business. Then came the rains
| in early July. When they continued
Throughout the month ana into August,
these dealers regained hope.
Now it is known that the Kansa1
corn crop will be bumper 1t will
mean money in the barks for the
in sales for the merchants. Kansas is
not stingy in her prosperity and every
one gets some of the fruits of a big
crop year. The autor, obi1e dealers
know this. Already they are being
rushed with inquiries concerning the
1912 models and scores Of orders for
cars for future delivery have been
placed with the Topeka retailers
Those future delivery orders are for
the new model cars. Owing to the
general increase in business through
out the country, manufacturers are
slow in getting their new models on
the market and it will be several weeks
before many of the 1912 cars are
shown here.
1.-The automobile business should
be better this fall than at al time in
the history of the state,' declared one
Topeka dealer this week in discussing
the business outlook for the coming
season. Il believe every wide awake
dealer now has orders pending for the
new model cars. At the present time
it is not a question of how can We
sell cars? but instead of how can we
get cars?' The late rains have helped
the business wonderfully
Topeka dealers sell to 4 large trade
territory. Every week cars are ship
ped from here to purchasers in out
lying districts and this foreign busi-
ness has increased to 4 large extent.
In the first place the Topeka. dealers
have earned the business because they
have gone after it. In the second place,
the original business has peen increas-
| ed by the universally fair and honest
dealings which have marked the trans
actions of the Topeka firms.
Recently one Topeka dealer pre-
dicted thai the number f cars owned
in Topeka would in six months in
crease from 700 to almost the 900
mark. Judging from heavy orders on
file and numerous inquiries of the last
two weeks, it is possible that this
dealers guess may be close.

Liquor Raiders in Cherokee County
Captured a Beer Wagon.

Columbus. Kan, Aug IA livery
stable may be a necessary adjunct to
the present law enforcement cam
paign. Two beer wagons and teams
are now held IN the custody of Jus
tice of the Peace Stiles court at
Columbus. A few nights ago James
Parillo and C. Barroe v ere arrested
and a team and wagon seized. The
property is held pending action of the
court. Lawrence Parillo was arrested
in Mineral and his team, wagon and
fifteen half-barrels of beer seized.
The state law provides that all prop
erty used in the liquor business shall
be destroyed. The seizure of horses is
a new departure, in this county at
least, and if the Parillos are convicted
it viii be up to the court to deter
mine what disposition shall be made
of the live stock
Seven arrests were made Tuesday
night in connection with the lid cam
pafgn. Mike Palesnick was arrested
for the third time within d week. Lew

LEARN THE LESSON.
Too Much Power Costs Car Owners
Real Money.


After a decade of e1Ierimenting'
the cost of which can never be com
puted, automobile manufacturers as
well as automobile users are begin
ming to learn the lesson that power
er is a waste of dollars
This idea has been consistently foi-
lowed by one or two OF the leadlng
manufacturers in this country put
others have been unparGo onably snort
sighted with a consequent loss 10
themselves and to the users OF tnelr
cars as well. This matter is empha-
sized by Hayden Eames, general man
ager Of the Garford company or Ely
ria, o. a company which from the hrst
has advocated that a certain ratio
should exist between the horsepower
of a car and the numbe. of passengers
1t carried.
TOO much power in touring cars Is
objectionable" sad Mr.. Eames rela-
tive to the 1912 Garford models, the
first of which were shipped from the
factory a few days ago. THE money
which 1t takes to equip ca with 70
or 80 more horsepower than 1t Will
ever be called on to Use might far
better be spent to make The car more
reliable and more comfortable. AS
the cost of the car must come out OF
the pocket of the buyer It is obviously
to his interest for him 70 buy ma
chine in which no money has been
wasted-and extra horsepower means
extra material, extra labor and extra
operating cost, all of wrich he must

WE'RE 5000 AT LOG ROLLING.
j. N. Dolley Was Speaker at Big
AxteI Gathering.

Axtell, Aug. 1.-THE second day of
the Marshall county M. w. A log roll
ing brought a crowd of 5000 people.
The celebration was held in Spouts
grove and the grounds we're arranged
for the occasion. There was a Chau-
tauqua tent for the speaking with COM
Portable seats for 1000 people and
thirty tents are pitched in the grove
for the accommodation of those at
tending the two days program. The
speaker of the day was Hon. J. N
Dolley, bank commissioner of Kansas,
who was especially inspired for the oc-
casiOn by a morning automobile ride
over the farming country adjacent.
This was Mr.. Dolley's first visit to
northeast Kansas and ths magnificent
crops growing on every side, showing
the wonderful fertility # this pros
porous section of the state.
The July drouth did little damage in
Marshall county. Mr.. Ooliey's extern
poraneoGs address was Il plain, bust
ness mans talk to his Kansas neigh
bors. He is an optimist and had the
figures and statistics to show Kansas
in the front rank of prosperity from
both business and an agricultural
standpoint. The days attendance was
made up with a large per cent of
farmers and their fami' es.
The Woodmens annual celebration
is made a picnic for a good time by
the people and they turn out to enjoy
it. The Hiawatha band furnished good
music both days; baseball between
Frankfort and Highland clubs gave
sport for baseball fans. and the addi-
tional catch-penny attractions filled
time between the platform program
Mr.. Dolley left at noon fer an engage
ment at st. Paul.

CLAIM AGENT TO WICHITA.
Missouri Pacific Establishes New Kan
sas Department.


Wichita. Kan, Aug. IAN entirely
new office will be opened in Wichita
August 10 by the Missouri Pacific rail-
way. 1t will be that of district claim
agent for the Wichita and Southern
Kansas divisions of the road W. H.
Mooney has been appointed as agent in
charge of the office.
This new office for Wichita comes as
the result Of a reorganization of the
claim department. At the present time
all claims other than freight are han
died by a distinct department. After
August Is the claim department will be
absorbed by the legal department. The
two have been so closely allied that it
was considered expedient to combine
them.
Martin L. CIardy of St. Louis, vice
president and general solicitor of the
Missouri Pacific is the head of the new
legal and claim department. Bale 2.
Waggener of Atchison, general solicitor
for Kansas, Nebraska and Colorado,
will have charge of the claim settle
ments in those three states. Judge C.
E. Benton of Fort Scott, general attor-
ney for southern Kansas, will have su-
pervision of claim adjustments in this
section of the state.

ORIENT ROAD TO osAGE CITY.
This Is Belief of Citizens of Kansas
Town.

Usage City, Kan. Aug. 12.-The
Orient railway proposition by the ad-
dition OF the Theodore P. Shonts and
Edwin Hawley interests has been fl
nanced. European capital blazed the
way for this enterprise and the assur-
ances of success which the manage
ment have been able to offer have OBJ
tained the approval and encourage
ment and funds of the Hawlev and
ShOnts interests, two of the largest and
most influential financiers in his
county.
This assures the construction of the
Orient railway and also produces a
clamor for recognition by communi-
ties which formerly passed the Orient
plans to the scrap heap.
In Usage county the Orient has
leases on valuable coal fields; a right
of way through productive and
wealthy county untouched by rail-
road; owns townsite and other real
estate holdings; depot and terminal
sites and has many other appurten-
ances of a business investment for
the future. all of which proves that it
is an utter impOssibility for corpor-
alton managed with the skill and
brains characteristic of the Orient
railway to abandon and strike off
across a country largely occupied

BAIiKED AT GIANT TRUCK.
Railway Could Not Handle Big Freight
Motor.

Too large to be accommodated in
the huge freight steamers plying on
Lake Erie and far too big to ride on
head bridges, a five ton freight motor
purchased by the Cleveland Milling
company, was compelled to make a
fast overland run from Detroit to
Cleveland, O., and remarkable jour
ney of $50 miles resulted from the
refusal of the transportation eompan-
les to handle the mammoth truck.
Although some of the worst roads
in the country We're encountered and
the truck ran into several hard rain
storms, not one mishap occurred. Of
ten the truck sank IN sand. Along the
shores of Lake Erie the trip was con-
tinuous climbing and descending of
hills.

the cars crossing Illinois, Missouri,
Iowa and Wisconsin. Manufacturers
of touring cars almost tainted when
the truck arrived in indianapolis and
reported at the checking stand right
on time.
One Racine CWis.) motor car fac
tory is to hold a jubilee this month
It is claimed that at this gathering
orders will be taken from the 100 rep
resentatives for 5000 cars, represent
ing returns to the company of over
$12, 00O.0 900.
One eastern firm has adopted the
method of providing only completely
equipped motor cars. In thousands of
cases the purchase of extras has
been postponed by the buyer and when
the purchase was finally made, he paid
heavily for his delay.
The value of newspaper advertising
is strongly demonstrated in the case
of the builders of a well known car,
who recently ran full page ad in
several widely known daily papers. In
ad, the manufacturers received letters
from more than 1000 prospective
buyers and thousands of inquiries
concerning features of the machine.

with his wife for years tour. From
Kansas City he went ecst and north
to Petoskey, Mich, narrovy missing
the forest fires. When reached
Detroit on his way to New England
he had Travelled 2,S0O miles at to-
tai cost of $28 for machine expenses
His total repairs for the whole dis
tance cost him $2.15.
Fourteen miles to the gallon, with
a six cylinder car, carrying a full
quote of passengers, on run mostly
uphill, with grades of 27 per cent, is
an achievement of which George T
Odeu of Salt Lake City is very proud
ne having done this with 1911 model
automobile. The run in question was
from Salt Lake City to Mr.. Odell's
summer home at Brighten, a distance
of % miles with a rise CT 5000 feet
above the level of the town. The total
consumption of gasoline was two gal
Ions and one pint, an average of 1873

about half way between Los Angeles

the thing come off. roll through a
fence and bring up within a few feet
of his doorstep, and what his feelings
must have been can be imagined.

did not stop to see how he took it.
The wheel had broken from the axle
of the engine known in railway par
lance as the helper" that is, it was
assisting the regular engine through
the hills toward this city. The break
occurred in such a manner, however,
as not to impede the engine in the
least, and it maintained its place in
the train without faltering until Pas
adena was reached. There the en-
gine was detached and another sum :
moned to continue the trip from Pas

hours late when it pulled into the
