After reading the indictment and the

read. "on the indictment charging
smueeling. a fine Of $500 and three
months in jail. and on the indictment
charging nspiracy. fine Of 5000 ana
three months in jail" Lucius, who was
standing at a table. seemed as If about

pected the iail sentence for his brother
would be equalled, II not exceeded, by
his own. Then the announcement OF
the suspended sentence relieved him.
Judge Thomas commented upon the
many letters he received from promi-
nent men telling OF the high standing
Of the brothers, and he touched upon
the fact that both were college gradu-
etes.
This" he said, is the more reason
why they must have known what they
were doing. II is indeed a sad specta-
Gle that men who have held such high
places among men should cheat their
own government for the sake Of
small sum Of money.
For an ex-Congressman TO so far
forget his oath as such, when he must
have known from his own personal
knowledge and experience all about the
tariff, duties and declarations, seems
!ncomprehensible and reprehensible.
And to my mind all this aggravates
the situation. 1t puts a premium on
dishonesty.
1T may serve notice 10 the public
that II this practice continues there

JENNINGS CASE REVERSED

The Arkansas Supreme Court
at Little Rock on last Monday re-

the Iron Mountain Railway Co.
VS.. W. H. Jennings, appealed
from this county. The Supreme

Jennings was employed on the

While the Arkansas Gazette,

Oil Is Important Factor With Auto
Sixty Per Cent of Motorists Troubles Are Due Faulty
Lubricants, Says Fred J. Wagner

These acid-treated, oils, IL their use
is long continued. also have the effect
in time Of attacking the metal sur
faces with which they are brought
into contact. The use Of the right oil
for the lubricating of the motor is
vital and the car user must to a
certain extent rely upon the fidelity
and honesty of the manufacturer Of
that lubricant.
If the product used in the motor is
not suited to the purpose the damage
done is gradual and insidious. This
damage being Of a gradual character.
cannot be observed from day to day,
as can the wear and tear on the tires
Of the car. The viscosity, which, in
other words. means the fluidity Of the
oil, is also factor in its affording
proper fabrication.

bearing or between the piston and cyl
inder walls. the purest oil that can be
obtained and of a heavier grade is re-

the bearing and wearing parts fit

should be used, that the best results
may be expected.
The system of fabrication used in
the motor is also factor which should

BY FRED j. WAGNER

@ EXPERIENCE of oil experts has
liz. proved that about 60 per cent Of
~ the troubles to which motors are
subject is due primarily to faulty lub-
rication. The remarks are based on
my own personal experience in the
oil business and not merely from hear
say.
Faulty fabrication can be subdivid
ed into several classes-among them
improper fabrication. insufficient sup
ply, over-lubrication and, most i'm
portant of all, the failure to- use a
pure oil drawn from the we'll section
of Pennsylvania, which state produces
the best crude oil; the failure to use
a lubricant free from acid treatment
or one with high-firing point, good
viscosity and, in short. one which will
lubricate under all motoring con-
ditions.
The supply of Pennsylvania crude
oil is so limited and the demand SO
great that there has gradually crept
into the field of automobile lubrica-
tlOH tHt use VI CHedpcl PIouuSto'
commonly known as "midcontinent
OIL having heavy asphaltic bases, and
coming from the fields in Indiana,
Illinois, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Texas
and through to the Pacific Coast.
Pennsylvania crude, having for its
base paraffin, offers the best oil for
the fabrication of the automobile
motor considering the exacting re-
quirements of high speed, long-con-
tinued runs, the high heat generated
in the explosion chamber, etc.
In order that this midcontinent and
Western oil having an inferior base
may appear pleasing to the eye and
compete or compare. at least when Of
fered for sale, with the purer and
higher priced oils which come from
the restricted fields of Pennsylvania,
the refiners of the asphaltic oils resort
to a number of practices none OF
which tends to improve the quality
as lubricant.
The practice most frequently resort
ed to is the treating Of the oil with
an acid; then the attempt later to neu-
tralize It with an alkali salt and by
washing free the oil from both the
acid and the salt. In theory this is
accomplished; in practice there remain
number of salts entirely foreign to
the oil as a lubricant, but all OF
which; as they are foreign products,
tend to break down the oil under high
degrees Of heat generated in the ex-
plosion chamber

able men, supplied in accordance with
the spirit Of the merit system.
The objection has been made to the
employment Of county engineers that
some counties are utterly unable to
pay salary such as a competent en-
gineer would require. This difficulty
can be overcome in two ways. first by
legislation so framed as to permit two
or more counties to jointly employ an
engineer, or, second, by making the
civil service regulations sufficiently

but the quantity of the oil used.
The service rendered by the motor
is so vital and the expense involved In
its overhaul and upkeep so great that
it behooves the user and owner to see
that he is not handed ANY old thing"
for his oil tank, but should insist upon
getting the right oil for his type OF
