About the time these things were hap

Realizing that the obstacles to be

in time for its use by tourists on their

that the "BOrd erland, being even now
"a going road" would absorb a heavy
percentage OF that travel unless active
measures were taken to prevent 1t,
Denver has now Joined with Salt Lake

BOrderInnd Gains Favor.
As it becomes better known, the
bOrderland is fast becoming a favOrite

superiority over any other across the
backbone of the continent but in the
''mid-continent' route it has a dan
SerOus rival for future public favOr-a
rival with far fewer natural advan-
taSes but compensated and supported
by the brains. the money and the &C

passes
Those cities are not leaving their
ocean to- ocean destiny to be worked

Of the matter, they are using the chan

their representation in congress for the
purpose OF making their route the
great national highway to the Pacific
Those who have studied the matter be-
lieve that the securing of the principal
Ocean-tO- ocean highway by either Den

in benefits those derived from the
building of another line of railroad

and with but little assistance, the bor-

the north and east and in one short

This has come about because of two

water everywhere; second because of

Is All Year Route.
These facts make it truly an "alI
year route. instead of one that can be
Travelled only about five months during
the year. Notwithstanding these great
natural advantages, the present is a
crucial time il the life of this route
and there is grave danger that by a
failure to realize the Importance of its
benefits to the several localities. the
people Of west Texas and FL Paso
may not give it the vigilant active
support they should in the fight now
being orOanized against it by Colorado
Utah and Nevada, led by Denver and
Salt Lake City.
In order to make the situation clear
1t Is necessary to review some recent
road history in the southwest. In the
fall Of 1911 southern California, Ari-
iona and New Mexico formed a tri-
state league for the purpose of
Sc curing aid-indiyiduaI. city, coun-
~, state and natiOnaI-tO build
a transcOntinental highway from Al
buqUerque by way of MagdaIena, Cliff
ton, Globe, Roosevelt, Phoenix and
Yuma to Los Angeles.
Soon after their organization was
formed. the 'BorderIand'' was found
and because of its extreme feasibility
as compared with the difficulties of
their proposed route, it Immediately
became a dangerous rival for eastern
public favor. At that time Colorado !
gave the tri-state route its support
because that route strengthened the
Colorado situation by giving an outlet /
20 the southwest; for the same reason
Colorado was not pleased with intru- !

the flow of gas. If 1t is absolutely
necessary to make use of a cork. wraD
it in pocket handkerchief before in

should be replaced with a new filler
cap as promptly as possible as the
cork will not allow the admittance of
air to the tank to replace the con-
sumption of gasoline, which viii re-
suit IN the pressure within the tank
becoming less than that of the atmos-
phere, interfering with the proper
feeding of the gasoline. If one will
note carefully he Will find a small
opening in the center of the filler cap
which is placed there for the purpose
of supplying air to the tank as the
gasoline is used. See that this hole
is always kept open
When the action of a small two or
four cylinder engine is irregular, or,
in other words, one cylinder is ap-
parently missing, If the trouble is not
found to exist in the spark plugs and
the adjusting Of the carburetOr fails to
remedy the irregularity, then one may
be reasonably sure that the Jump" IS
the result of loss or leakage of COM
preston This may be due either to
pitted valves or valve seats or to de-
fective piston rings While a slight

yesterday afternoon on Epson avenue,
when the big Chalmers six" touring
car of L z. Booker skidded ana slipped
against the curbing on the icy pave

are as tough as Whalebone, almost, and
