EQUITY DAY DRAWS
tlRoE CROWD

Yesterday was Equity Day
in Bottineau and the promot-
ers of the meeting at the opera
house met with success in their
efforts to get a large crowd.
The opera house was packed
with farmers and businessmen.
People were present from
Souris, Carbury. Roth, Landa,
Omemee, Willow City, Gar
dena, Russell and Kramer.
Without making any COM
ment on the merits or dement's
of the speaker, it must in
truth be admitted that the
people-especially the farmers
were eager to see and hear
him. He, was the much ad.
vertised George Lotus, of
Equity fame.
Mr.. Lotus is not an orator,
but is rather a fluent talker
who hae his subject--erain
marketinR-well in hand. He
quotes statistics on grain mar.
ketinR and on chamber of COM
nerce transactions with the
ease that a camp meeting ex-
horter quotes the Scripture.
He is fearless, aggressive, aud
by some looked upon as antag.
onistic in his methods. He
held the undivided attention of
his large audience for more
than two hours. They did not
all agree with him-but they
all listened. He said he had a
message to deliver; and he de-
livered it in a right.from-the-
shoulder style. The question
has never been discussed here
in the way Mr.. LOTUS discus
sed it. He is man of strong
convictions and therefore he
has ardent supporters and bit.
ter enemies. The question is
a deep one and will not be
settled by one discussion-or a
dozen. But the Courant would
be unfair if it did not state that
he aroused a lot of interest and
that he made a deep.impression
on his audience.

ANOTHER NO-STOP
VICTORY FOR BARNEY
Two Road-Race Tliumphs
On Same Set of
Firestones.

Hot on the heels Of Barney Old
fields three hundred mile no-stop
victory st. Patrick's day comes the
news that he has won the one hundred
mile road race ut Tuscon, Ariz, on
March 20 at an average speed of 66
miles per hour over rough desert
roads also without a stop.
Tho most remarkable thing about
this victory is the fact that the same
set Of Firestone tires which carried
Barney the 301 miles to victory over
macadam roads with 39l right angle
turns on March II were again used
in tho TuscOn race.
When Barney made the three hun
dred mile no-stop record on the high
crowned track at Corona Thanksgiv-
ing day, his Firestone tires were much
commented upon and it was said,
They certainly show up well on tho
track" When Barney repeated the
performance on March II over the
macadam course ii was said, "Flre-
stones certainly can stand the grind
Of the macadam," and now after win
ming this last victory over rough
western roads, critics have been com
PEELED to admit that Firestones, as
tire for any condition OF service, have
proven their merit without a ques-
ton.
These three victories are only few
of the long list in which Firestones
have made records within the last
few years.
The great GIL mile Los Angeles
Phoenix road race, ending November
II, 1914, conceded to be the greatest
race ever won on tires, was won on
Firestones. Barney Oldfield driv-
ing" Second and third place In this
race was also won on Firestones.
The 533-mile FL Paso-Phoenix road
race driven at the same time was also
won on Firestones.
In the last few years 25 victories
of national and international import
ance have been won on Firestones car
rying such drivers as Jules GouX, Bob
Burman, Louis Disbrow, Earl Cooper,
Jim Parsons and Spencer Wishart and
many others to famous victories, as
we'll as many other races Of less Inn
portance.
First place in such events as the
Indianapolis speedway race, the Mon
tamara Festo races at Tacoma, the
Corona race, etc, are numbered
among Firestone achievements.
Worlds records have again and again
been broken on Firestone tires.

STEEL CD. To PLACE I
LAWNS ALONG CANAL
Workmen Dredging Out Bed of
Stream; Ground Being Placed
Along Banks

If one OF Steelton's old residents
should return to the borough in the
near future, chances are that they
would ask what had become of the
old Pennsylvania Canal and it's gar
bage-lined banks hat in the olden
days flowed south from Swatara street
to Highspire.
Gradually this old eyesore is being
removed by a gang of workmen en-
ployed by the Pennsylvania Steel
Company. A beautiful stretch of lawn
and a few flower beds along the banks
of a deep, placid body of clear water,
will take it's place. From this long
.lake-like BODY of water the Pennsylva-
MIA Steel plant will draw the water
needed in the operation of its many
boilers-just as the old canal once
did.
Fol many years there has been an
agitation against the old n A few
weeks ago the Steel company put to
work a gang of men, dredging out the
stream and placed the dredged ground
along the east side of the canal. From
Mohn street to below~Chambers street
the banks have been improved, a fill
some fifteen feet from the curb has
been made and already some grass
seed has been planted. Later on the
flower beds may be added and places
will be erected for passengers to alight
from trolley cars.

WHERE WAS THE BRITISH NAVY:

london is asking what the United
states is going to do in the Lusitania
affair.
What did Great Britain do to guard
against the disaster? That question is
being asked by Americans every
where.
The British Admiralty knew that
German submarines were lurking in
the waters where the Lusltania was
sunk. Before the Lusitania sailed it
had had plain warning of an intend
ed attack. Only the day before the
disaster a vessel was torpedoed near
by off the Irish coast. The British
Admiralty had every reason to be on
the alert. 1t could easily have spared
a few to~rpedoboat destroyers to con-
voy the Lusitania from Fastnet to
Liverpool. Was any preparation at
all made to ward off possible attacks
