I'D FACTS FROM CANTON.
Little can beaded to this statement
made by Emil ]. Kaufman, chairman
of the Democratic central committee
of Stark county and the neighbor and
former supporter Of Congressman J.
Whitacre. Mr.. Kaufman lives In
Canton, the home Of the congress
man, and is in a position to support
the facts which he presents as the
real reason why Whitacre Is advocat.
ing the election of the Republican
nominee for governor. They are con-
tanned in T.. a.terance: -
His stand simply shows to what
ends the moneyed men of the state
are willing to carry their fight. They
find that they are hard hit by the tax
laws and the workman's compensation
law, two Of the greatest progressive
measures ever enacted.
1T should prove to the honest tax
payer that he has nothing to fear.
These laws have stepped on the toes
Of the men who have been lodging
their taxes and they are naturally
sore and have succeeded, if this report
Is true, in getting Whitacre to come
back and try to stir up discomfort.
Il don't believe that he can find
enough dissatisfied men in the county
to form an organization"
Supporting Chairman Kaufman is
Thomas H. Leahy, a Canton attorney,
who acted as Mr.. Whitacre's field lieu
tenant in the recent primary contest.
In his statement he defines his posi-
ton and raises question concerning
Whitacre's sincerity: \
Il worked hard for Whitacres nom

to help elect Cox. %
II talked with Whitacre q week ago
and ne said nothing at that time
about a revolt. I supposed all the
time that he was sincere when he
said after the primaries that he was
through with the fight"

Save, Or Spend 1t?

The total valuation of all the tax
able property in Medina county fol
1914 as shown by the District Asses
ors books will be S42,934.995, a gain
of S2,764, 4,O95.
The State levy for 1913 was .961
mills. If it had not been reduced
Medina county would have paid the
State $41, ,26O.53; but since it has
been reduced to As mills, we will pay
the state $19,92O.75, saving to the
county Of. $21, ,93s.7S. The increase in
the duplicate ($2,764,O95) at one per
cent which is about the average for
the townships Of the county, makes
$27,64O.95. If we add to that $21,-
939.78, the reduction made by the
state, we have $49,5S0.73 more for
public purposes than last year pro-
yiding the rate remains the same.
It is up to the people whether this
amount shall be saved or expended.

OVERLAND WILL PUT
NEW CAR ON MARKET

An announcement of more than
usual interest to the general automo-
bile trade and the public. but more
particularly to the many dealers who
handle Overland cars. has just come
from the Willys-Overland Company"
said B. II. Harper. of the Overland
Washington Motor Company.
so quietly that even the intima L es
have had no inkling of the plans. Over
land engineers have for the past season
been developing and testing a new,
seven-passenEer car which in points OF
value, equipment, and price. bids fair
to outclass anything that has been Of
fered heretofore.
In spite OF the production OF 5O.-
900, cars. this year. the demand for
Overland cars has been so great during
the season just drawing to a close that
the principal difficulty of the dealer
has been to obtain a plentiful supply
of Overlands.
"As announced some time ago, the
factory will materially increase the pro-
duction OF four-cylinder models for 1915
while the new six-cylinder Overland
whose preparation has been so care
fully guarded. will, for one thing, serve
the purpose OF giving Overland dealers
a line Of cars 50 complete and inclusive
as to enable them to satisfy the varying
demands OF their customers with the
product of a single manufacturer.
After having been passed upon by
Mr.. Willys and his sales stan the produc-
ton Of the six will progress with the
usual Overland celebrity, so that an ade-
quate supply OF them will be ready for
the market in the late summer or early
fall"

they wish TO be formal
One OF the strangest calls by auto ever

Davis met Jeffries one day and said 70
him. Il am coming out TO call on you
some day. may I come right up to the
door with my Cartercar?''
Come ahead" said Big Jim, but
don't think you will get far"
He was thinking Of the immense flight
of forty-one concrete steps which leads
to his home and naturally knowing how
steep they are he did not think any au-
tomobile could come up them.
Soon after Mr.. Davis gathered together
a party Of friends, and started out 70
make the call. That their host was
unused to having his guests call on him
in this manner Is shown by the interest
which he took In the ascent All the TIM

FIGURES TO PROVE
HUPMOBILE ECONOMY
c. NJ. Dow Shows II Costs an Average
of II Mills Per Mile for
Upkeep of Car.

"A very prominent oficial in public
life said G. NJ Dow, of the Washing
ton Hupmobile Company. asked me the
other day wherein We based the founda-
ton on which we make such broad"
statements with reference to HupmobIle
economy.
Now. a year ago. a question Of this
sort would have been q poser for at
that time We did not have on hand the
exact figures to back up such a claim.
But not long ago. In order to de-
termine just exactly what Hupmobile
owners have spent in repair costs, our
auditing department gave me a report on
all the repair parts sold TO Hupmobile
owners in the last FIVE years. This record
showed that on the 90 Hupmobiles now
in use. that the average cost per car for
repair parts-basinE mileage at about
$500 miles per car. per year. is 81 mills
per mile-hardly more than one-ffth OF a
cent. Needless to say. this proved a big
surprise TO my inquiring friend"

FOR TIRES OR GOLF,
LONG DRIVE IS GOOD
Ajax Agent Points Out Similarity Be
tween Colhng and
Autoinq.

In using automobile tires. as in play
ing golf long driving is highly desir-
able" says B. Holland. OF Columbia
Vehicles Company, local agents for Ajax
tires. Good length on the drive means
a lot TO the man on the links: 1t means
no less to the man who is paying for
his castings.
There are more points OF similarity
between golfing and tire using than that
Look out for the slice. The slice in
driving comes from cutting across the
bail. II cuts distance of the drive.
Slices and cuts in the tire tread take
distance on the tire mileage.
Keep your eye on the ball. they say
in golf Keep your eye on the bill. they
say in tire providing. When the head
comes up, you miss your shot in golf.
When the bill mounts up with tires, you
don't miss your shot you pay II.
Putting pull on the ball IL a good
thing for distance in golf. But IL doesn't
take any pull to get distance with tires
when they are Ajax"
