PUMP CLOSELY
NEEDS TO BE IN GOOD coNpI.
TON FOR EFFECTIVE WORK.
Plug Pump Probably is the Most Use
full Of All the c~ontrlvaness
Available.

Even II you have demountable rims
and carry a couple of extra tires ready
for use, 1t is wise to also have in your
tool box a good hand pump, an extra
tube, and either an interliner or a
blowout patch. One never knows
what may happen to tires on the road,
and often a pump comes in handy. But
don't make the mistake of never look.
ing at the pump, as you are~apt to do.
The hose may have become worn In
a spot through rubbing against some
article in the tool box, the valve In
the pump may have become hard or
the barrel OF the pump have, become
dented, SO that any one of these little
matters will be responsible for pre-
venting the pump from working.
rake the pump apart, soak the
leather valve washer in oil, see that
the pump works freely and look over
the hose and the connection to know
mat 1t will fit on the valve stem and
that the pump will work. Even IL you
DO not find use for it perhaps you will
be able to help out some brother mo-
torist In trouble. What is. better than
a hand pump and quite as SUCCESSIVE
In operation, to say nothing Of its
labor-saving qualities, Is a plug pump.

Watch Engine; NsaIeet rlrs..

1T is almost unbelievable, yet true"
says the head OF an adjusting depart
nent, that many men who watch their
engines minutely-who listen for the
slightest unusual click or hum in their
gears, eve think Of giving their tires
attention. Yet the tires, made OF cot
ton fabric and rubber, have to sustain
and build a cushioned TOAD for what is
practically a small locomotive turned
loose on city streets and country
roads. In such a condition II is sur
prising, not that there are tire trou-
bles, but that tires perform anything
like the service they do" ~

THE COLUMBIAN TREATY

bla, covering the taking OF Pana-
ma" by President Roosevelt is caus-
ing a good deal of discussion.
Roosevelt, of course, defends his
action and oppose the giving of
$25, 000,0 600 to Columbia for the
territory he took and calls it black
mail. His position is combatted by
James T. Dubois, minister to
Columbia under the Taft admins
stration. In the following state
ment recently published, Mr.. Du-
bois defends the treaty:
Regarding his difference with
Col. Roosevelt on this subject, Mr..
Dubois expresses regret at opposing
a "great leader whose fortunes J
devot adly followed for 10 years."
and states that mo man will toler-
ate the thought that any Of Mr..
Ruosevelt's acts inspired by
tainted motives, but no man is al
ways right"
Negotiations for a treaty during
the Taft administrations failed, he
says, because his instructions, out
of excessive m not to impugn the
motives of President Roosevelt Sin
taking" Panama, failed to give
Columbia sufficient justice. The
pending treaty, he believes, should
be heartily approved by the Ameri-
can people.
Taking issue with Mr.. Roosevelt
regarding the character of the pub
lie nen in Columbia. Mr.. Dubois
declared that they compare well
with the public men of otter
tries IN intelligence and respectable
ity instead of being "blackmaile!s
and bandits"
Quoting Mr.. R~ousevelt's declara-
tion that people of Panama were a
unit in demanding the revolution,
he says "a. handful of men, who
were to be the direct benefciaries
OF the revolution, conceived it and
not the hundredth part of the in
habitaDts Of tine isthmus knew of
the revolt until an American officer
in the uniform of the United States
army, raised the flag of the new
republic"
The claim made by Mr.. Rouse-
welt that the Columbian treaty is a
blackmaillng agreement is dealt
with by Mr.. Dubois in his interpre-
tation IF the document. ID
While negotiating for a treaty
/ made the Columbian authorities
understand that under no circum.
stances would the United States
apologize to any nation for d politi-
cal act-that was our unwritten
Law that eve had been or never
would be broken. In purely in
formal conversations and in my
official me norandum, | suggested
that a chivalrous expression Of
rerget that oar friendship had in
any way beef marrei s1ch as any
resEgentlem IN woukt freely grant
to another, might later be embodiei
in the treaty as a balm for the
wounded feelings IF a once friendly
nation which had been Inundated
before the world, whera credit had
been d5troye1 in foreign countries.
whose borrowing ability had been
annihilated, and whose persistent
appeal for arbitration had been ie-
nored." The opposition to this rea-
ture. on the gro Ini That it is an
apology, is not just ind is not in
the true intents of the United
States. If the Anglo Saxons ars tt
live in harmony with the Latins OF

with absolute justice. just as w
