WHO WILL WIN The AUTOMOBILE

The Battle Of the Ballots
Energetic members OF The LeaderEnepses Automobile
Club Will Soon Be Known
Club Members Should Not Lose Amy Tme-Send Your
Votes Issued After The Closing Hour

reading is taken there should be
10 vain regrets concerning votes
rejected because they did not con-
form to the rules of the campaign.
Ii in doubt concerning any point,
ask questions until everything is
clear. 1t is extremely dangerous to
remain in ignorance of any of the
rules which govern the closing.
Get your reserves in the ballot
box early Saturday, SO you will
not miss any of them. Do not lose
any of them for there will be no
way Of getting duplicates at this
late period of the campaign. Do
not trust to slow mails. A delav
of a few hours may lose prize
for you. Mail them in time to
reach the Auto Club Department.
early Saturday, August 81, or you
are liable to lose out. 90 in today
and tomorrow to win or forever
hold your peace. The race is all
up to you and your friends.
DO not ask to have vote ballots
issued on subscriptions without
the name of the candidate for
whom they are to be voted writ
ten thereon. The request cannot
be complied with.
All votes must bear the name of
the candidate for whom they are
to be voted before they leave this
office. Scratched, torn or altered
certificates will be promptly dis
carded.
Oftentimes few votes will win
or lose a prize, and it is small sat-
lsfaction for one to know that they
have lost by putting off their final
effort until the last hour. Go out
at once and do your best to bring
your waverihg friends who pro-
missed you subscription, into
line. If you put it off to the last
hour they may be out Of town, or
changed their minds-just do it
now.
The battle of ballots will wax
more furious as the end approach
es, and every candidate is prepar-
ing for the struggle which must
take place between now and nine
o'clock Saturday night. lndica-
tions point to a strenuous finish
and many subscribers will be added
to the Leader Enterprises list be-
fore the close. Claims and coun-
terclalms of the contestants and
their friends Indicate that the out
come is everywhere in doubt and
the interest will be at white heat.
But it will all be over in a few
hours; even tho it has been a warm
race the good feeling will be so
prevalent that the losers will be
helping the winners to celebrate in
that little wonder car the w. +.
1916 Maxwell, which is a beauty.
Everybody will be happy and those
that have worked the hardest
will be the happiest of all.
No information regarding the
reserves polled-to be credited af-
ter the close of the ballot box will
be given anyone, so don't hesitate
about bringing your reserves as
early as possible. Do not forget
that the votes in this contest are
not transferable and that every
vote issued must have the name Of
the contestant written thereon.
Any alterations or erasures, unless
the same are made by the cam
paign manager, will be cancelled
at once. The campaign closes

Closing Rules About
Getting The Votes In

U0tC1ng Inc votes In
Every facility will be afforded
the contestants and their friends
for getting their votes into the
Leader Enterprise office. Expert
ence teaches US that when the close
of the polls approaches, in spite of
the warnings that have been given,
it is certain that some of the candi-
dates will put off getting in their
subscriptions and votes until the
last possible moment.
Everything is ready for the
close of the fastest circulation
campaign Fitzgerald has ever seen.
Contestants who fail to win a
prize will be paid a cash salary
commission of (8) eight per cent
on the gross amount Of subscrip-
ton money which they have turn
ed into the contest department
during the campaign If they have
been active workers to the end of
the contest.
The Rules governing the closing
OF the contest are printed below.
Read them carefully:
Contestants cannot be too care
full about sending in their ballots
so they will reach the Auto Club
Department before nine u m
Saturday, August Dist, and as a
matter of precaution every one of
them should read and weigh each
line of what is printed here,
The Leader Enterprise would
dislike very much to see any one
candidate lose single vote because
of the excitement which is sure
to occur during the last few hours
of the campaign, or because of
some misunde rstanding on the
part of any contestant. 1t is i'm
possible for you to exercise to
much caution in arriving at full
understanding of the rules and
conditions governing the contest.
First-Allvotes and remittances,
10 matter what time mailed, must
be received at the office of the
campaign department, Leader-En-
terprise, before nine O'Clock,
Saturday, August Dist, or they
will be worthless and will not be
counted.
Second-All remittances and
votes mailed after noon Friday,
August Goth, should bear special
delivery stamp.
Third-All remittance should be
addrested to the Auto Club Man
ager, Leader Enterprise and not
to individuals. This is to prevent
confusion.
Fourth-No personal cheques
will be accepted on the closing day,
unless certified; postoffice or ex-
press money orders, drafts, certi-
fed cheques or currency will be
accepted in payment for subscrip-
tions. Please note this carefully
and do not present personal
cheques in payment of subscrip.
tions on Saturday, August 81, the
closing day of the campaign.
Lock over the above conditions
carefully. Do not jump at the
conclusion that you fully under
stand any particular one until you
are absolutely sure of it's full
meaning. If the precaution of

for penetrating smoke as possible step towards solution of this trou- bie, even though the ingenuity of man had failed to solve the problem in the past Now comes the enthusiastic ad- vocacy of a scheme by the hydro graphic department of the navy for solving this problem which is worthy of full trial before it is thrown into the discard.
 It having been discovered when con- tainers of olive oil were broken in loading a vessel in South America that that portion of the fog closed harbor to which the freed oil was car- ried was followed by the lifting of the impenetrable veil. the Idea is now ad- vanced that by sprinlxling oil upon the surface it will prevent the cold air from coming in contact with the warmer water and therefore prevent the condensation of water vapor which Is the cause of fog. To cover all the water whera fog is likely to be en- countered would be an impossible task. but it is possible to so treat it in the most dangerous sections. The practi- cabiIity Of the idea remains to be de- termfned but the experiment is cer- tainly worth trying when the great danger which fog raises is realized.

In explanation why more was not accomplished it has been learneo that while the programme of the l9l4-1s15 Expedition, in natural science research work was practically carried to a conclusion the work of the corps of archaeological engineers was largely nullified as a result of outrageous and unsubstanfiated charges made against Professor Bing- ham and the members of the Expedi- ton by the so-caiied Institute His torico at Cuzco.

MUST HAVE ALL THE FACTS.

In connection with the arrest of Robert Fay and others involved in the bomb plots Ambassador Bernstorff has taken occasion to write to the depart ment of state that the accused has no connection with the German foreign office and is not even known by them and that it maintains no secret ser- vice.
 At the same time other reports in- dicate that Fay was sent here from Germany for the purpose of starting n campaign of destruction in. accord ance with which he was actively at work with others when placed under arrest. There are features of the case which need to be cleared up, however, and regardless of the statement by the German ambassador they cannot be neglected.
 The probe which has been started should go on. until it is determined as far as possible just what the cir cumstances are. It is matter of such vital importance that it cannot be sidetracked in any particular That Fay was engaged in a plan to des- troy property and possibly life appears io..,be. beyond question and if he can pc connected with the German gov- srnment, 1t is indeed a serious matter and nothing will satisfy until it is either cleared or the facts are estab- iished beyond dispute.
