The Rose-Nepple Auto company is
jubilant over the record reported by
Edward Kellogg in a trip he just
made in Dodge Brothers car from
Bakersfield, Cal, to this city, Turing
which he travelled little more than
a thousand miles in a little less than
five days. averaging 23l4 miles per
gallon~o gasoline. And after he got
here, it took only half pint of wa
ter to fill the radiator of the ma
chine, which had not been filled dur
ing the trip.
Mr.. Kellogg, accompanied by his
wife, arrived in Olympia Monday al
ternoon for a visit with his cousin,
Mrs. Henry Mallory, and reports that
the roads along some sections of the
route are in bad condition. The rec
ord made by the car, which was heav-
lily loaded with luggage, is a source
of great satisfaction to the local
Dodge dealers.

 Carranzas attitude toward punitive expedition against Villa is of piece with his previous behavior to- ward this country He refused permit troops to enter Mexico until he assured that reciprocal prvi eges would be given him. The comparison of course, is ridiculous American citizens not given to crossing the Mexican border to murder and page. That fact, however made it all the easier government to acquiesce.
 Our government acted wisely about it, too For Car ranzas demand obviously intended less to his pride than to placae his grngohating followers by showing them that if there be any bandit chasing it would be done by both nations equal anG self respecting The nothing, and may infinite trouble and expense

After securing the consent of the

State institution was Immediately
forthcoming. So far as known, it was
the first time that an official represen-
tative of an automobile manufacture
ing concern had been invited to lee
ture on the merits OF his product in
public institution of that nature.
Arrangements were then hurriedly
made for the lecture in the prison
auditorium. and when the Overland
lecturer appeared on the platform that
evening practically every inmate in
the institution sat before him.
After the lecture an informal dis
cussion on the knight motor and its
characteristics was held and the
speaker was kept busy for some time
answering questions which were fired
at him by the interested listeners
Warden Talcott was so impressed with
the success of his undertaking that
he requested that all available Willys-
Knight literature be placed in the
prison library. The result was that
the Overland representative not only
granted the request but went it one
better by placing the institution on

that tests cars endurance above all
others, is the transcontinental race
against time from San Francisco to
New York.
That record is now held by the
Hudson Super--Six Touring Car. 1t
comes as the crowning achievement
of the Hudson Super-Six in speed,
acceleration and endurance. There
remain no other worlds to conquer to
demonstrate the endurance, speed and
power OF the Super-Six.
Last May Cadillac IS" made the
trip from Coast to Coast in days,
IL hours. 53 minutes.
That record-then considered un-
beatable-was lowered four weeks
ago by Marmon, which made the
trip in days, 1914 hours.
The Hudson Super-Six made the
trip in days, 8 hours and SO minutes,
beating the Marmon time by IA hours
and SO minutes.
A 7-passenger phaeton model was
used by the Hudson. Both Cadillac
and Marmon used roadster models.
Hudson did not seek to reduce its
carrying capacity. In fact at all times
three and sometimes four passengers
were carried, as we'll as baggage.
which brought the weight of the car,
loaded, up to approximately 5000
pounds.
Inree drivers p1loted the car in this
great test of endurance. A. H. Pat
terson, the Hudson dealer at Stock
ton, California, started the trip, driv-
ing from San Francisco to Elko,
Nevadai SIS miles. The schedule call
ed for the completion of the trip into
New York in days and 10 hours.
Patterson climbed over the Sierra
Nevada Mountains, crossing the divide
at. an altitude of almost 5000 feet,
and cut his schedule 6h hours.
At Elko Ralph Mulford took the
wheel. and for 80 hours drove across
the desert. He said the terrible
fhonotony of that drive, the glare of
the sun and the dust was more ex-
hausting than his 24-hour drive, when
he made the worlds record in the
Hudson Super-Six chassis, travelling
1919 miles.
Patterson again took the wheel at
Laramie, Wyo., and drove the Super
Six over the Rocky Mountain Range
and across Nebraska into Omaha. The
car left Omaha with Mulford driving,
8 hours ahead of her time.
In Iowa Mulford came over the brow
of hill at so miles an hour and saw
dead ahead of him a bridge, on which
herd of cattle blocked the way. He
had to decide quickly whether he
should go over the embankment into
inevitable death, or take his chances
