REGAL CAR USED
FOR MINE WORK

I take these stories concerning the

spectacular stunt, I generally charge
IL up to the publicity man.
Down in Kern county. near the
San Bernardino line, a Regal car is
csed for raising and lowering the

perpendicular shaft was started and q
derrick rigged up, and rope shitched'

great bucket. which, as stated. weighs
600 pounds when empty The motor
is thrown into low gear, and, to raise
the bucket, the Regal car starts
ahead on low. and the bucket comes
sup out of the shaft. As the shaft
becomes deeper, more rope is added.
and more runway needed for the car.
The first 80 feet OF this shaft were
sunk on one gallon of gas. Hereto
3ore, work Of this kind was done by
the Osbornes with horses and wind
lass The saving is great in the use
of the Regal car, and in a desert
country, where water costs from 81 to

horses drink nearly a barrel of water

remarkable, as IL consumes only a few

COL L0RAD0 SPENDS
BIG SUM ON ROADS
$1,ooo,0oo Will Be Used
This Year for Extension
of Lincoln Highway

DENVER, Sept. "a sum approx
mating s1.0o0.000 is being spent in
Colorado this year along two routes
proposed for the Lincoln highway.
according to an announcement just
made by T. j. Ehrhart, state highway
commissioner. Great impetus has
been given good roads work here
owing to the recent visit of the In
diana Automobile Manufacturers as
ISOLATION and the stirring addresses
of former Mayor Bookwater of In
dianapolis to further the Lincoln
highway.
Assuming that the highway runs
along the road from Burlington to
Limon. Colorado Springs, Denver and
over Berthoud pass and thence to
Glenwood Springs. Grand Junction
and the Utah line, IL counties have
been allotted $9S.800 by the state, to
be met by an equal amount from the
counties, which will make an appro-
priation total close to $180,000,' said
Mr.. Ehrhart.
There Is another line of road
which leaves Colorado Springs and
goes through Teller county and up
over the Tennessee pass. meeting the
first road named at Wolcott. On this
line of road there are eight counties
for Which $62,500 has been allotted
and to which the counties will add an
equal amount, of total of s135.000.
This money is to be spent in grading,
drainage, bridges. culverts and sur
facing"

Il would advise drivers of auto
mobiles to use all the side streets
g possible instead of traversing Market

Machines outbound from the ferry
would do well to turn into Post

up to Grant avenue. thence down to
Market street again. BY doing this
they win save themselves consider

This would only be necessary be-

There are plenty of people who
have business down town and must
use the streets there If the people
who are merely going across the
city VIII keep of the main street
they viii help matters wonderfully.
What we need is cooperation Of the
automobile men
I would also suggest that those
drivers who desire to travel north
and south through the business sec
tion Of the city use Stockton street,
Grant avenue and Montgomery street
These connect with short streets on
the other side of Market street and
afford a direct route.
Machines which desire to run to

Enterprise Holds as Much
Attention

There are few people today" says
George f. Daniels, vice president of
the Oakland Motor Car company, who
are not intimately acquainted with
the motor car in the making, as we'll
as the finished product. 1t can be
safely said that there is no other
manufacturing enterprise In which
the ordinary man holds such a great
interest.
This is due primarily to the ex-
tent to which the motor car has en-
tered the daily life of the people. But
the policy of the manufacturers them
selves. in opening their doors to the
public has also had its effect"

This is why hundreds of thousands of
men use Goodyear No-Rim-Cut tires.
The clincher tire-the hooked-base tire
will rim-cut. You must, with that type, turn
your rim fanges inward. And those thin
curved-in edges cut the tire when wholly or
partly debated.
Statistics show that 31.8 per cent of all
ruined clincher tires are discarded for rim
cutting only. And these statistics were gath
cred by certified public accountants.

Tread Separation

Loose treads have cost tire users millions
of dollars. A breaker strip, in all we1l-made
tires, comes at the base of the tread. It is
near this strip that separation comes
This breaker strip in No-Rim-Cut tires has
hundreds of holes in it, made by special
weave. The tread rubber is forced down
through these holes, forming hundreds of
large rubber rivets. Then the tire is vul-
canized en- rasse.
We paid $50, 900 for this patented way
to prevent tread separation.
The San Francisco call., 1913-09-06

Please consider these savings.
Rim-cutting completely avoided.
Blow-outs and loose treads saved.

We do this so the fabric won't be left
wrinkled. So every part of the fabric assumes
its full share of strain
All other tires are vu1canized on iron cores
alone. The fierce compression often wrinkles
the fabric and that wrinkled fabric escapes the
strain. That causes thousands of blow-outs.

$500 daily. 1t is so costly that no other
maker employs it.

Some people labor under the de-
fusion that Tammany was a friend
to the South during the war, but the
men who struggled arms to the
South, and the men who lynched de-
fenseless negroes during the draft

principles that instigate the prose-
cution OF Sulzer. And southern men
have more esteem for the brave SOL
diers who met them on the battle
field than they have for the traitors
who betrayed the Union for gain or

Tammany has waXed richer and
stronger as the years have gone, but
it has, if anything, lost in honesty.
Its name is synonym for corrup-
ton all over the civilized world. To
belong TO ii is stigma on any man
and il IS a national reproach that it
exists.
