with a great deal OF interest because
Of the immense possibilities involved.
These possibilities appear to be almost
Unlimited. II the plan proves to be
a success It will be adopted elsewhere
and we will see IN time the rural ser
vice Of the postofhce duplicated by
the freight service Of the railroads,
running into the country to consider
able distances from the railroads.
Most OF the heavy road hauling now
done by the farmer may be done by
the railroad company, and the farm
er's use Of the roads will be confined
to lighter and more rapid transit.
That such an enterprise will have q
marked effect or the construction and
maintenance of country roads seems
certain. For the heavy hauling that
would be involved good roads will be
essential, and only those communities
whose roads are kept up to the proper
standard could expect to have the ad-
vantage of such a service. Altogether
the experiment will be a very inter
esting one, and we will all watch
closely for the results.

MEXICAN CHANGE IN SIGHT

So many reports have been publish
ed Of the approaching retirement Of
General Euerta that the later ones
have been received with some skep-
ticism, but all the signs point to early
and important changes in the Mexican
situation. The persistent reports
that the family Of General Huerta was
to be removed from the city Of Mex
leo to Vera Cruz, there to take steamer
to- Europe, appear to be authentic,
ard there car be no doubt that
Hue-ta himself will follow IN a very
short time.
Indeed, It appears certain that
auerta must nov soon to avoid fall
ing into the hands Of the constitution
a!ists, who, since their capture Of
Guada!eja-a, have been rapidly max
ing preparations for the ena! move on
the capital, which is now within strik-
ing distance. All along the west
coast, too, city after city has been sur
rendered to the constitutionalists, and
there is no reason at this time to
doubt that before long the armies Of
the northern insurgents will make a
triumphaI entry into the capital of
the country.
This situation is said to be realized
by the federas, who are now conferr-
ing with the constitutionalists with
reference to the conditions which are
to exist after the fall Of the capital.
The onstitutionalis leaders give as
surance that order will be maintained,
and that life and property will be pro-
tected. As to the government to be
| established. It has been decided among
the constitut.onal!st leaders that none
Of the military men who have been
prominent IN the civil war shall be
considered Toy the presidency. This,
Of course, will exclude both Carranza
and villa.

LARGER STORE FOR
BERTRAM COMPANY

About the busiest place along auto
mobile row at the present time is be
tween the new and old Bertram Mo-
tor Supply company stores on State
street. The Bertram company has
spent the greater part of the past week
in transferring its large stock from the
old store at 25l State to the new To-
cation at 3A2 State street,
The Bertram company has just had
constructed one of the largest exclu-
sive motor supply houses between Chi
cago and the Pacific coast, and be-
ginning Monday morning will be able
TO take care Of the trade from the new
store. This company has occupied its
present location for the past five years,
and the large increase in business made
necessary the present move,
Ono of the features of the new store
will be a strictly modern station for
the benefit OF those who wish quick
work done on their magnetos, carbu-
retors and Lighting systems, 1t will
be possible to drive ones car into the
shop where special machinery, parts
and tools have been installed to take
care of this kind of work. 1t is the
only service station of this kind be-
tween the Missouri river and the Pa
cifc coast, and it is thought by Mr..
Bertram that the public will be quick
to realize the efficiency obtained in a
place of this kind.

CADILLAC AUTO
RUNS MACHINERY

Many are the uses to which the au.
tomobile is put, says Sam Sharman of
the Sharman Automobile company, out
side of It's usual province, especially
when necessity prompts. Down in
Shreveport, La, the proprietor of bot
ting works has found a new one, which
while peculiar in itself, Is not without
prac teal suggestion.
D. l.. Biedenbarn, proprietor of a
plant where delectable soft drinks are
bottled for the consumption of the
thirsty, found himself up against il
the other day when the motor provid-
ing the power for his plant burned
out. Orders were pressing, but as the
works were soon to be moved TO new
quarters il did not seem desirable to
install q new motor just at that time.
Nr. Biedenharn. therefore, took his
Cadillac and backed it into position in
the rear of his plant, lacked up the
rear axle, clampcd n wooden pulley
wheel TO one rear wheel of the machine,
shifted the main driving belt 10 the
pulley and then crauked the engine of
the car.
The scheme worked perfectly. The
Cadillac has been driving all the ma.
chinery of the plant ever since, work.
ing steadily ten hours a dav six days
week, without any interruptions
from overheatiug or for mechanical
difficulties of any kind.

BOTTER|LL SALES
BREAKING RECORDS

ga few more weeks like the one just
passed aud there will be more auto
mobiles sold in Salt Lake City than for
any spring since the BEGINNING OF the
industry in the state, declared Frank
BotteriIl of the Botterill company Sat.
urdav. five minutes after he had closed
the last sale of the week for his cstab-
lishment.
"It has been one of the biggest
weeks in the history Of our company,
and the sales have been of an excep-
tionally satisfactory character, con
tiuued Mr.. Bottorill. "We are order.
ing new Hudsons and several new
Pierce Arrows today and they will come
on from the factories as rapidly as we
can get them here. / have predicted a
big volume of automobile business this
spring. but il is opening up In a way
that exceeds even my most sanguine eX-
pectaticns.
The Botterill service departments are
working virtually night and day IN an
effort TO catch up on the extraordinary
amount of work under way IN these de-
partmeuts The thousands of dollars
that have gone into the equipment OF
the shops Of the Botteril establishment

the company the benefits anticipated
when the expenditures were made.
Owners who buy the Pierce Arrow and
Hudson ears have the benefit Of one of
the most completely equipped aud in.

vet found n single place where the

REQ TODAY HOLDS
STRONG POSITION

In an interview yesterday T. W
2oueche of the Grady-Roueebe Moto
ar company, said:
IL has come 10 the point now
when man buying motor car
considers the financial responsl-
bilities and reputation of the or
ganiZstion manufacturing that ear
as much as he does the car itself
The day when man rushed into
an automobile sa!esroOm and
clamored with his fellows 10 figure
delivery on ear, has passed.
The automobile business has
passed through the boom stage and
has settled down 10 solid reliable
basis.
Since the day the REQ Motor
Car company started manuiactur-
ing automobiles. some ten years
ago, there has never been any ne
cessity for any frenzNed financing,
which many concerns have en-
ployed. There has never been
water stock or bond issues and
business has been carried on IN u
very careful aud conservative
manner. and the volume of business
they arc doing today is simply the
outgrowth of consclentiously aud
honestly building good cars
The REQ Motor Car company
could probably market 80 per cent
more cars than they do at present,
but in order TO do this the cars
would not receive the same degree
OF carefullness which is now eXer-
cised in their manufacture and as
result the ultimate owner would
suffer.
The REQ factory is conducted
along a conservative line and they
have never experienced q season OF
over production during which they
had to cut prices Of their cars to
get from underneath. The produc.
tion is even throughout the whole
year and by no night work or rush
work being employed during the
year one can readily appreciate
the efficiency of this manner of
manufacturing.
Since we have taken over dis
tribution of the REQ in this terri
tory we have been receiving a
great many outside inquiries and
are rapidly closing contracts
throughout our territory. Mr..
Grady is now in Idaho closing
wholesale contracts and reports 4

ness.
