A Very Simple Question,

Witness the work that is going on
in Springfield at this time under the
Taft administration, then look back
at the almost utter lack of anything
doing in Springfield under the free
trade times that existed from 80 to
90. and it won't take long to deter
mine whether your duty directs that
you vote for another four years of
Taft or fon another four years of lean
and hungry free trade.

MANAGER HOWES
ON AUTO FUTURE

There are getting to be a good
many automobiles in Hawaii said
Frank Howes, manager of the Asso.
ciated Garage, yesterday, But there
does not seem to be any decrease in
demand, and | do not believe there
will be- A good many persons think
of autos simply as pleasure vehicles.
The fact is they are business makers.
They have demonstrated this fact in
& hundred different ways right here
in Honolulu II is a fact that at least
half of the machines now used here
are used for business purposes, some
of them entirely, and others in part.
When a man can accomplish from three
to ten times as much in a given time,
in a business way by owning a ma
chine than he could without, he is
certainly not going to go without after
he has once demonstr ated the saving
to his own satisfaction.
There are business men in Homo
lulu who attend to business in other
parts of the Island easily, which they
could not possibly do without their
machines. DO you suppose the doctors
could get arong now without the auto?
1t would be practically impossible.
A real estate man can show customers
over property in few hours that
without the automobile would take
him as many days.
These are only illustrations, but
they cover any number of other lines
of business. The hard part for an
automobile salesman is to convince a
business man that it is money in his
pocket to own a machine. After he
buys, he will never be without one as
long as he is in business"

Mr. Hotel is now taking periodical
trips to all of the Islands in the in.

of this company, and stands ready to

The Won Hamm-Young Company is
exhibiting a large variety of new
models this week, and is giving the
public a chance to see the very latest
in all makes.
Honolulu in indeed very fortunate in
having a company like the Won Hamm-
Young Co., represent so many diff
ferent models, as it is not necessary
to go to an automobile show any more
on account CT the very large number
of new types to be seen in their big
salesroom.
One of the cleverest cars on exhibit
ton this week is the 1912 model of the
OdulildC huudDOuI IhdJ utS ever Deell
put on the market. This car is suit
able to any line of pleasure or bust
ness and is the most adaptable car to
plantation service which has ever
been brought to the Islands. The popu-
larity of the Cadillac is ten times as
great this year as it has ever been
before, as is evidenced by the great
number Of these cars which may be
seen running about the Islands, and
the dirth of these machines in the re-
pair shops.

The Buick express truck has a capa-

The Buick truck has demonstrated
itself to be bore economical than

trucks as they are so much quicker
in action and so much easier to han

NEW CARS ARRIVE;

The week just passed is reported
to have been a good one with all of
the garages. The Sierra, arriving yes
terday, brought a number Of new
machines to all Of the dealers, most
Of which we're already sold.
Three HudEons--two touring cars
and one pony tonneau--were received
by the Associated Garage Company.
They are all sold, and will be deliver.
ed in day or two. Manager Howes
advises that three more touring cars
of this popular make are on the way,
and should arrive within the next
ten days.
During the week the Associated
Garage has taken orders for one Chal.
mers and two Pierce-Arrows, one of
the latter being for 1913 model.
which will probably be delivered late
next fall
The big 5-ton Pierce-Auow ice
truck ordered by the Oahu Ice and

service for several days this week,
and is reported to be giving splendid
satisfaction.

morning for the Schuman Carriage

Schuman also received by yester-
