THE Milwaukee Sentinel Monday
in speaking of the democratic party
said: tina.
SIN week, with its crazy tariff
hocus pocus, transmitted pros
perity into adversely and the full
dinner pail into the full bread line,
are surely numbered.
We can excuse the Sentinel for this
crazy expression, coming as it does,
Just after republican pow-wow
which has made the ultra-conserva-
tives very happy. The Sentinel, when
it gets down to earth again, will
realize how utterly foolish its twad-
die is. Why, throughout President
Taft's administration, panic reigned
supreme. it was the utter inability
of the republican party to cope with
existing conditions that sent it down
TO defeat. The panic of 1907 is not
so soon forgotten. Every day since
President Wilson took his seat in the
presidential chair, the prospect for
good times have become brighter.
Besides, this country is at peace with
the world.

SENATOR STEPHENSON has been a
great money maker during his life
time, but there was one venture in
which he lost heavily. 1t was in the
newspaper business. He tells the
story in very emphatic way as
follows:
"Young man, you can not get me
to talk much for the newspapers. l
bought newspaper once at some
body's suggestion, 1t has cost me
100000 already. / do not like to
give up any game that l start, but
it is evident that / know more about
lumber than the newspaper business.
If you would offer to give me any
other big paper, would say 'shoo fly
l have had my fill Of running news
papers,"
"Uncle Ike'' can console himself
that he is not the only man of means,
who has dropped money in a news
paper venture.

Gear Ratio of Hudson
Is Nearest Perfection

Chief Engineer G.. G. Behn. of the
Hudson, likes to take on technical
topics. But he has a way of investing
them with simplicity and clearness
that makes these dry subjects attrac-
tive TO any motor car enthusiast. Most
buyers know very little on the fea-
ture of gear ratio. and yet it is vital.
Mr.. Behn says, to real motor car sat
isfaction.
n twenty horse power truck motor
can pull huge load up a pretty stiff
grade, and do it at a fair speed II
does it, however, very noisily and with
excessive vibration. Some people think
THAT they would like to have low
power motor of this kind in their car.
and have an idea that they would
then gain fuel economy, and vet have
plenty of power. Mr.. Behn shows
how this idea is a fallacy because the
motor would require to turn over at
such tremendous rate in order TO
gain driving-wheel speed. that it
would not be satisfactory for a pleas
ure car.
On the other hand, n motor that is
geared too high does not produce sat-
isfaction because it must of necessity
have very powerful motor in order
to overcome the high gear ratio.
There is an ideal in this, as in all
automobile designing. A moderate
gear ratio makes the ideal car for a
pleasure car. 1t gives excellent power
on hills and under difficult road con-
ditions, and yet it is sufficiently high
so that the motor operates pleasantly.
and without vibration or noise. Very
low gear ratios, because of tremen-
dous speed, are apt to prove unpleas-
ant and costly Mt speeds of thirty
miles per hour and over.

dianapolis, and the European classic,
the Grand PriX in France, used valve
in-head motor cars. The leading
builders of motors for aeroplanes,
submarines and marine engines un-
hesitatingly adopt valve-in-head mo-
tors, although they cost more to
build Buick cars still hold the twen-
ty and fiftymile worlds speed re-
cords and more a. A. A. official speed
records than any car but one. Buick
cars have won the most recent reli-
ability tests-the 1914 three thousand
mile tour of France, the most stren-
uous test ever staged by France; the
latest New York reliability run, the
most strenuous test from the stand
point of technical examinations to
which automobiles have ever been
subjected in this country, and the
fourth Wisconsin economy reliability
tour, repeating a previous victory in
this run and averaging 24.S miles
per gallon of gasoline.
Buick valve-inhead motors have
won more than 500 hill climbing,
speed, reliability, economy and en-
durance contests, moer than any other
make, regardless of price.

International Has Jitney
Service For Visitors

The International motor truck de-
partment are having an independent
exhibit in their new headquarters, GIG
Walnut street. Free transportation to
visitors from their headquarters to
both automobile shows is a courtesy
extended from the 18th to the goth,
inclusive.
G. j. Stevens, manager of the Inter
national motor truck department, an
nounces that for the benefit of Inter-
national truck owners they have es-
tablished a complete service station,
which will be at the command of all
International truck owners. no matter
how old their trucks may be.
This supply house will carry an
abundant line of motor trucks of the
popular sizes, also a complete line of
truck parts, thus saving valuable time
and extra expense to their hundreds
of patrons. These vital features, to-
gether with the reliability of the
manufacturing company and the sales
agency back of it, speak for the per-
manency of the International motor
truck department
Merchants can no more disregard
the advantages of the motor truck
than their daily papers and telephones
Business firms now recognize the fact
that new trade is necessary and horse
and wagon delivery will limit them to
a restricted territory and volume.
The motor truck permits a large
expansion of trade and the Inter-
national is constantly making deliv-
cries to progressive firms who believe
in trade expansion.
The smaller firms formerly held to
the idea that the motor truck was only
practical for the larger concerns, but
have now broadened their views, lost
that business timidity and are pur-
chasing trucks as a matter of economy
and business expansion.
The many up-to-date features of the
new 1915 models of International mo-
tor trucks are both interesting and
pleasing to the many visitors and pur-
chasers now calling at the Inter-
national motor truck department, 619

Local REQ Agency
Reports Excellent Business

The wonderful popularity of the
REQ line of automobiles made by one
| OF the greatest manufacturers in the
| United States, has been very forcibly
demonstrated by the quantity of cars
that the local representative, the Har-
rlsburg Automobile Company have
been handling in the last year. One
hundred and fifty-seven cars were de-
ltvered in this territory during the
season of 1914, which was considered
very good years business. The 1915
business is still far more gratifying to
the REQ Company. and up to the
present time George G. Mcfarland, of
the Harrisburg Automobile Company.
has delivered to his customers 14O
REQ cars with four carloads on the
road for immediate delivery. A total
OF 212 orders have been taken for
delivery up until the first part of
April. In addition to this business
they have stored fifty-one cars in
). Il. Romberger's storage warehouse
in South Tenth street These stored
summer months for late buyers and
summer months for late bueyrs and
were stored by this enterprising firm,
who knew very well that they would
not be able to get enough cars during
the summer months to supply the de-
mand for this most popular car. The
popularity of the car has grown in
leapS ana pounds. Reo owners find
they can drive their cars. over all
kinds of roads the year around, 10, 900
miles at an average cost of between
2 and 8 cents a mile for all expenses

it needs repairing it is so constructed
that repair bill is of a most moder-
ate amount. The Harrisburg Auto

SUFFkAGISTS BUSY
PLANNING CAMPAIGN
[ContInued from First Page


ernor and the next move is to place il
before the voters
BY a vote OF 81 ayes 10 II nays, the
resolution proposing the woman suf-
frage amendment TO the Pennsylvania
Constitution was passed finally by the
Senate last night. The issue now goes
at the coming Fall election.
The passage of the resolution was
hailed by the greatest demonstration
time. The Senate gallery, the aisles,
and even the sacred carpet whereon
the senators sit, were crowded with
women. most of them suffragists
low flowers of the suffragists shone
beneath the face of fair women. Here
and there, not at all in such abund-
anee. We're the red roses of the anti
suffragists.
Lieutenant Governor McClain in the
chair wore one of the yellow flowers,
and when, just after the demonstration
tolowing the announcement of the
vote, one of the Senators opposed to
the resolution complained about the
noise, Mr. McClain's answer was:
Don't you know this is ladies' night?'
A significant point in the arguments
OF those Republicans who opposed the
amendment was that the members of
the legislature were nominated before
the Republican platform containing the
suffrage pledge had been adopted. The
question therefore at once arose
would not be used against other plat
form pledges.
Senator Grow, Republican State
chairman. who opposed the resolution
two years ago, opened in its favor last
night citing the party pledge. lie was
seconded by Senator Ware. Senators
Martin and Hilton also spoke in favor.
Senator Beidleman spoke against the
resolution, reiterating his view that the
people of the State and of his district
in particular were against suffrp -. He
said he felt it his duty to vote as he
did out of regard for the sentiment of
his constituents. He thought nine
tenths of the members would vote as
he did had they made as careful an in
qutry as he had. He said members
elected last November were nominated
before the State Republican platform
was adopted and therefore not strictly
bound by, it. Senator Thompson, of
Beaver, also spoke in opposition.
Many Senators like McNichol, of
Philadelphia, believe the amendment
stands no chance this Fall Senator
Crow in his address emphasized this
when he said:
"A vote here to support the .resolu-
tion does not mean that members Of
the Legislature are obliged to support
the resolution at the polls"

Mrs. Horace Brock, president of the
Pennsylvania Association opposed to
Woman Suffrage, commented thus on
the legislature action:
The suffragists of Pennsylva-
mia are entirely satisfied with the de-
cision of the Legislature to submit wo-
man suffrage to the voters.
Having made a careful survey OF
the State during the last two years and
having studied the national tendency
toward economy efficiency and conser-
vation illustrated by the rejection of
woman suffrage by eleven states since
November l, 1914, we have no fear for
the result in November, after which wo-
men will be able to resume their normal
life and charitable and civic activities,
which have been most seriously inter-
cred with by this agitation or votes
for women "
