the Industrial achievements OF the
whole world. These twin messengers
OF modern civilization. born In the
skies. stand today the most faithful and
efficient public servants that ever
toiled for the human race.
They are OF American nativity and

No industry in the history OF the
world has ever made such rapid strides
in development and usefulness. and
none has ever exerted a more powerful
influence upon the civilization OF its
day than the Telegraph and Telephone
Their achievement demonstrates the

THE BATTLE Of
THE TIRES

agricultural and Commercial Pres. serv,e.l
III Is interesting TO watch the forces
OF civilization battling for supremacy.
Inc struggle now going on between the
RUBBER and the iron tire promises to
be the liveliest contest of the TWEEN
tieth Century.
The struggle Is a silent one and
tnere are no war correspondents to
write vivid descriptions of the con-
nict but the results are more far
reaching 10 present and future gen
erations than the war OF Europe.
Inc rubber tire has been maneuver-
Ing for point OF attack for several
years and has captured a few unim-
portant positions in traffic. but 1t has
no" pitched a decisive battle with
It's iron competitor by hurting a mil
lion jitneys" at the street railways
and the battle is raging from ocean

struggle depends the future of the
rupoer tire IL IL is compelled to re-
treat. Its doom Is sealed. but II IL wins
the battle IL will revolutionize the
transportation methods OF this nation.
III the rubber tire conquers the
street traffic its next struggle is with
the railroads OF the country. and then
the greatest battle between economic
forces ever fought out on the face
OF this earth is on. for iron IS the IN
disputed master in transportation, and
Is fortified behind billions of dollars.
and millions OF men.
Stephenson applied the steel tire
TO an iron rail in 1914. but IL was 1869
before the golden spike was driven
at Promontory Point. which bound
the country together with bands Of
steel IL took the iron tire ffty-nve
years TO creep from ocean to ocean
but the rubber tire while warm from
the creative mind OF the inventive
genius sped across the continent like
an arrow shot from the bow OF Ulys-
ses- The roadbed was already pre-
pared and therein lies the power OF
the rubber tire over that OF iron. for
government builds and maintains the
public highway.
But iron 10 a stubborn metal and
IL has mastered every wheel that
turns. has fought battles with every
element above and beneath the earth
and has never tasted the NORWOOD
OF defeat, and when rubber hurts its
full force against this monarch OF
the Mineral Kingdom. Il may rebound
to the factory stunned beyond recov-
cry.
The rubber tire first made It's ap-
pearance on the bicycle, but II proved
frivolous servant and was dismissed
Tor incompetency. II has always been
too much inclined TO reveI in luxury
TO be taken seriously as a utility ma
chine and its reputation f. not one To
