Why Ford Cass ass Popular

Why Ford Carr are Popular
Some interesting figures in
the cost Of motos maintenance
are being unsaSthed by the
owners reports. which are the
tsstamoay given the Ford COM
psny by Ford owners al over
the world, in IN effort 70 sstab-
lish the average maintenance and
mileage cost Of the Ford ears.
For example. W. T. Brown. Of
the Columbus Mn and Mine Ssp.
plv company. Of Columbus Ohio.
writes that he has driven HE
Ford on IN average Of %. 900
miles . year for three years and
his carefully kept record shows
that the actual upkssp cost per
year has been 500. This means
IN upksep Of about y per mile.
This case would seem extra.
ordinary were Il not fer the fact
that simultaneously with the re.
port Of Mr.. Brown comes one
from william F. Osstesreich. Of
the Milwaukee Novelty Dye
Works.
Mr.. Oesterreieh reports that
he bought his Ford on Septembes

Ford 72 S3S miles with IN upkeep

SO pointedly snubbed by the religious societies Of the
city, is evident from indignant protest by Mr. John
Emerson Roberts, published in the Chicago Herald
of May 81 He the ministers of Chicago of
taking orders from the Anti-Saoon League and of
not being able to think for themselves. .
I'VE had ignoranty supposed" said Mr.. Rob-
erts that the ministers owned and controlled their
own brans that they did their own thinking and
voiced their own convictions. The ministers have
surprised and disappointed We thought them
leaders instead of followers
All this is very amusing in view of the fact that
the ministers Of Chicago arc themselves among the-
most active members of the Anti-Saoon League, and
have a large voice in controlling its affairs

The "Beerage" in the Peerage

1t now appears that Englands deplorable failure
to cope with the drink evil in her present great crisis
is due, not to lack Of patriotism upon the part of
the commons but to the presence in the house of
lords of large number of who are interested in
the drink traffic. among whom, unfortunately, are
some members of the clergy. These men have been
styled across the water, the "Beerage." The house
of commons passed by large majority bill to re-
strict the liquor traffic, but the "Beerage" in the
house of lords defeated the measure.

The Hocus Pocus of Wet Statistics

The Hocus PocuS OF Wet Statistics
The old saying, Figures do not lie but liars
sometimes figure" is we'll illustrated by a circular
which the have been sending out broadcast
the country, and which contains socalled Stats
tics from the United States census, purporting to
show that dry Kansas has higher divorce rate and
greater percentage of terates, homicdes and prs-
of all kinds with lower percentage of Church
membership and per capita wealth than wet Ne
braska
The futility of this comparison is at once evil
dent to anyone who has the slightest acquaintance
with these two states. In the first place. 63,27o
of the 768o8 square miles of Nebraskas is dry
territory. great majority of her people live under
Prohibition laws This fact destroys the force
of the vets comparison. In the second place, the
vets circular is careful to avoid certain other facts
which would utterly destroy their conclusions such
the lower tax rate of Kansas and the higher per-
centage Of crime pauperism, etc., in the wet parts
of Nebraska compared with Kansas and especially
the fact that Kansas has much larger urban popu-
lation than Nebraska-a1l of which must be taken
into account before the vets comparison can be
given any weight whatever.
The circular furnishes only one of many illus
tratons of the false and sophistca Juggling of Stats
tics by means of which the vets hope to make con-
verts. They careful to select only those facts
which seem to make in their favor and to suppress
all Others To still further expose the futility of
such statistical comparisons, let us apply the vets
method to Nebraska and North Dakota The follow
ing comparison of conditions in these two states is
based upon u. S. census figures
DRY (WET)~
North Dakota Nebraska
Number of paupers per 100000 -. Id 462
Number of insane per 100000 -. 1888 10y
Ratio of pupils enrolled to
population ............... 2zs 22z
Per capita wealth ................$3374 S3I1o
We could continue this comparison and give-
scores of others like it, and the conclusions to be
drawn from them would be much nearer the truth
than anything to be found in wet literature
