FORD CARS SAVE MONEY
FOR CITY Of new YORK

Some very interesting facts demon
strating the efficiency Of the motor
car-particuIarly the Ford car-in
the practical administration of the
fire department Of the City of New
York, have recently been brought out
by the report OF Fire Commissioner
Robert Adamson made to the Mayor.
In the last four years the Ford
Motor Company has sold in all thirty
five Ford cars to the New York Fire
Department. Just how economical
and efficient these Ford cars have
proved ie shown by the report on a
single car.
Commissioner Adamson early in
the present administration appointed
a special messenger for the fire de-
partment, and provided him with a
Ford sar. This is from the repor:
printed in the New York Sun:
The new fire department motor
messenger is doing the work formerly
done by ten men at a cost of $l4, 900
a year. The ten men who have been
replaced on messenger duty by this
car have been returned to active fire
duty. The motor m essenser makes
the rounds of all the division head
quarters twice a day-rin the morn
ing bringing IN the daily reports to
headquarters, and in the afternoon de-
livering official orders and communi-
cations to the various division head
quarters.

flight from Paris to Havre. passing

ing, has returned to his post in Paris.
This is encouraging, as It indicates
that conditions in the French capital
are returning to normal again.

victories OF 1914. In addition. Idaho
went dry, to all intents and purposes,

It Is the policy of atrition. Slowly

the liquor interests is being won, and
wha tis won Is held. Albania ia the
only State lost during the progress OF
the recent prohibition movement, and
this WAS lost not by a vote Of the peo-

Judge Benton Will Not Seek
The CovernorShip.

The following press dispatch was sent
from Winchester TO the daily papers:
Judge James Milton Benton, of this
city, who has beeL lauded in recent is
sues of several Democratic papers for
the Democratic nomination for Gov
ernor, declared that he did not look
with favor on the suggestion. He eX-
pressed himself as being entirely salts
fed with his present position. and said
he in all probability would be caudi-
date for the same office when his pres
ent term expires in two years. Judge
Benton said in part:
THE mention of my name in con-
nection with the goyernorship by several
newspapers was doubtless intended only
to evince an act of friendly parliality
with no expectation that it would be
taken seriously by me or any one else,
and as such, appreciate the spirit that
prompted the suggestion; but | want
them and all my friends to know that,
honorable as the office of Governor OF
this good State is, my field of service is
not in the Governors chair. and that
would not consider it a promotion from
my present position.
Il hope none of my friends think that
have inspired or encouraged that Sug.
gestion, or lent sympathetic ear or eye
TO it, for | have not. | yet owe two
years of undated service to the people
of this judicial district, and intend tc
give them that without having my mind
distracted by thoughts of what the fu.
ture may have in 5 ore for me politically
but, to be entirely frank, if shall fee
that my service as Judge has been &C.
ceptable, and that the party to which
owe allegiance wants, and the district
needs, six years more of my service.
shall very likely ask the Democrats oil
the district at the proper time TO give
me the nomination and thereby permit
me to serve the people again in the same
way that | have served them in the past
except as that service may be improved
by maturer age and larger experience
with the pledge given now that | shall
be exceedingly grateful for such per
mission, if it is granted, and not in III,
least disgruntled if it is not"
