a proviso prohibiting the payment of
any sums included in the bill to private
contractors charging more than twenty
five per cent above the estimated cost
of the work as done by the government.
Mr.. Good charged that the dredging con-
tractors were making exhorbitant profits
and that pool existed for the division
OF government work. The amendment
was adopted by rising vote of 113 to 70,
During the final debate heated col
loquy occurred between Representative
Moore, of Pennsylvania. a waterway
champion. and Representative Madden,
Of Illinois, who has opposed many items
In the bill. Mr.. Moore said that the IL
linois Representative was /" kindly gem
tlernan who has gotten along to that
stage of life at which he can afford to
give away thousand dollars here and
there to bribe members OF Congress
into his way of thinking
Mr.. Madden Immediately demanded
that the words be taken down" and
expunged from the Record. This was
done, after which Mr.. Moore said that
he had intended to be facetious, and had
not intended to make any charge of I'M
propriety.
The river and harbor bill as IL viii 60
to the Senate carried authorizations OF

Funston has reported that the troops
IN Mexico are themselves purchasing
supplies freely, and that large quaint
ties OF candy and tobacco are being sent
to the front from the border.
Candy may sould childish" observed
Gen. Scott. "but there Is nothing like
sugar to sustain men on hard duty
With the American troops steadily PEN
etrating farther into Mexico the negotia'
tons looking to protocol to cover the
chase have come to complete standstill.
Apparently iCarrsnza himself is not anx-
ious to sign up, inasmuch as the chase
has exceeded in distance anything con-
templated at the time the first dash was
made
officials of the State Department are
frankly pessimistic over the prospect OF
catching Villa. Indications were stronger
last night that as soon as Carranxa has
amassed a sufficient force in the area
where villa Is taking refuge, TO assume
a vigorous pursuit of him, the American
expedition will be withdrawn. On the
other hand, IT is suggested In high off,
cial quarters, that the same step might
be taken IL Villas followers are complete
ly dispersed, and Villa himself left as a
lone fugitive from justice.

HEAVY BUYING OF
CARS FEATURES
AUTO SHOWS
FORETELLS GREATEST YEAR IN
p INDUSTRY - STU D E BAKER
GETS MANY ORDERS FOR
TRAINLOAD SHIPMENTS.

If there is one tendency more than
any other that is featuring this years
automobile shows, it is the fact that
the shows are proving occasions for
heavy buying of cars. The import
ance of this is more fully realized
when it is recalled that in past years
the big crowds flocking to automobile
exhibits came more out of curiosity
than desire to place orders.
The tendency to buy heavily at
show times is taken as bearing out
predictions made to the effect that
there may be a shortage in cars this
year in view of the heavy demand. 1t
is ominous also because of the fact
that the unprecedented demand at this
season foretells record year for the
automobile industry.
Among the manufacturers that are
preparing for the heavy business is
the Studebaker Corporation, whose
factories are working full force to
take care of orders for the new series
II cars. The biggest problem now,
according to Studebaker officials, is to
turn out cars fast enough. AS an in
dication of the policy of prepared
ness" an output of 100000 cars is
planned for 1916, based upon the out
look as reported by dealers.
The hitherto unequalled demand for
cars expressed at the New York,
Philadelphia, Detroit and other shows
is being duplicated in the middle west.
New records in volume of orders have
been set at the Chicago exhibit, prov
ing that heavy buying at show times
is not confined to any one section of
the country but is universal.
So enthusiastic are dealers for cars
for early delivery that requests for
trainload shipments are becoming fire.
quent. The Studebaker Corporation
has secured trainload orders Of cars
from dealers at Chicago, Milwaukee,
Sioux Falls, Grand Forks, Fargo, Des
Moines, St. Louis and other cities.
The Studebaker dealers of this city,
The Champlin Implement Co., have
prepared for heavy business, get
ting in much larger stock of cars
than they had last year. They were
unable to supply the demand promptly
last year, so popular was the Stude-
baker with the trade. The Champlin
Co. recently fitted up a
block on First St. N. E., near Central
avenue, for sales and show rooms.
Clint Dierdorff is the manager of the
Champln Implement Co., while w. H.
Reighart, one of Minot's most capable
automobile men and oldest business
men, is in charge of the auto business.
There are few men who know more
about automobiles than Mr.. Reighart.
A year ago he built fine machine
with his own hands. He regards the
Studebaker as high class machine.

the public has confidence in his judy

AUTOMOBILE ADVERTISING.

The automobile industry has well
nigh revolutionized the printing and
publishing business. Among the very
best advertisers in the country today
are the automobile manufacturers and
dealers. They are the best advertisers
in the large magazines as we'll as in
the great daily newspapers and they
are now large BUYERS Of space in the
country weeklies. Consider the amount
of automobile advertising in this is
sue of the Independent, alone. There
are in the neighborhood Of twenty
dealers in the city and they are all
live, up-to-date businessmen, doing
business with modern methods and
they are certain to get their share OF
the trade.

MINOTS FIRST AUTO DEALER.

Dewey C. Dorman was the first au-
tomobile dealer in Minot. He owned
one of the first machines brot to the
city and later invested in a Buick,
which car he represented in the city.
He opened the first automobile repair
shop in the city in the old Doloff Hall.
There were such few automobiles in
the state at the time that he ran a
general repair shop in connection.
Those who did own cars, however,
found plenty Of need to take them to
a specialist, and Dewey's services as
an expert were soon in demand. Mr..
Dorman is now resident of Fargo.

GOOD ROADS.

North Dakota is in the primary
class yet, when it comes to the good
roads question. We have an opportun-
ity to make as fine roads in this state
as there are in the United States. Nat
urally, the owner Of car appreciates
good roads, but so does the man who
hauls in the big load Of grain. Now
that farmers are buying so many auto
mobiles, they should work hand-in-
hand with the residents of our towns
and if the right methods are used, we
should soon have roads that will be a
credit to our state.
