order to give You an easy-,1dine
electric pleasure car, with tires that
can't tunefnye or bLowouf, all leading
makers of e1ectrics, who build IS per
cent of all American-made electrics,
are now putting Motz Cushion Tires
on their cars as standard equipment.
They do this, even though theymust
pay $50 to SIPS more per set for Motz
Cushion Tires than for pneumatic,
semi-solid or truck tires.
Yet Motz Tire equipment, in most
cases, adds nothing to the price yox
pay for your electric. Simply advise
any of these makers that you want
Motz Cushion Tires on your electric
and you will get them. E
And you will have tires that last,
on an average, five times as long as
the most costly pneumatics. Motz
Cushion Tires are guaranteed for
10000 miles-two years. Pneumatic
tires average less than 5000.
Ifyou now have a pneumatic-equip-
ped electric or truck-tire-equipped
electric, you can easily change to
Motz Cushion Tires and multiply
many fold the pleasure, comfort and
safety of motoring. Motz 'Cuxhion

Devils Lake, N. d., Feb. ia fell
low giving the name of Robert s.
Kingsley entered the store of Her
man Shark last night shortly after
supper and attempted to pass a spuri-
ous check On him for payment on
merchandise and only for the fore-
thought OF the proprietor would have
been successful.
With a happy smile on his face and
singing as though he had just return
ed from q celebration. Kingsley en-
tered the store and told that he was
merely looking at clothing. ana after
finding a suit that was to his liking,
asked for a little time TO get a check
which a farmer owed him.
He left the store and Mr.. shark
wrapped the suit for him. 1t was only
q few minutes until he returued with
8 check made out for 1880 and sign
ed with the name OF Frank Lawton.
Mr.. Shark went out to get the change,
supposedly, but Intentionally to look
mp the check and found that there was
no such person In the country. He
returned to the store to catch the fell
low but found be- had left in the
meantime and he has not been heard
of since. An effort was made By the
police to apprehend the man but lie
is thought to have left the country.
Fortunately for Mr.. shark, he stiff

New York Evening sun: with a
speech of national Importance by Sec
rotary of State Philander c Knox on
the list of events which have already
marked the session, the State Bar as
ISOLATION entered today on the second
day of it's annual meeting. The meet
ing is being conducted at Carnegie hall
and is the thirty fifth that the associa-
ton has held. 1t win conclude tonight
at the Waldorf Astoria when a ban
quet viii be held with President Taft
as the guest of honor.
The speech of Secretary Knox was
preceded by one delivered by SEN Eli
hui Root, president of the association.
on judicial decisions and public feel
ing toward them, and another by Coy.
Simeon e. Baldwin Of Connecticut,
who told how the simplifcation of le-
gal procedure in his state had been ac-
conplished.
Secretary Knox spoke Of the Monroe
doctrine and some incidental obliga-
tions which the United states should
assume in Latin America. Outlining
the situation in regard to the Nicara-
guam and Honduran conventions and
the general condition of financial af-
fairs in Nicaragua and Honduras, he
said:
Because of the dificuIty Of COM
~n1unication in these countries the Gus

successive contests for their control
have marked the national existence.
Once having lost control OF the custom
houses and the revenues derived there
from the constitutional authorities
have found themselves confronted with
a lack of funds and have ultimately
been deprived of the means necessary
to defend the capitals.
Control of the custom houses once
obtained, it becomes necessary for the
successful revolutionists to expend
enormous sums, practically the entire
national revenue. in the maintenance
of an army adequate to continue them
in control. Under such circumstances
the payment of the interest on the ma
tional debt has been out of the ques-
ton, and such governments fall into a
state of hopeless default. which de-
prives them Of n further foreign
credit.
Provided the enormous waste or
military establishments could be
checked, the customs revenues Of both
these countries. properly administered,
should be ample to meet the interest
and sinking fund on their just national
obligations"
