The
Passing Of
The Ss.l,e,'Zntie,e

The Dodge Brothers Motor Car ''speaks f,-
ITSELF"
Its beautiful lines, the extraordinary specifca-
tons, the admittedly high quality of the material
used, the reputation of the manufacturers and the
decidedly low price-these features cannot fail to
appeal to the serous-minded prospect.
There is an increasing demand on the part of
the automobile purchaser to be his own Judge of car
values. This condition is highly encouraging from
the standpoint of the seller of Dodge Brothers Motor
Car.
When car is sold strictly on its merits there
are no comebacks from dissatisfied purchasers no
occasion to retract statements made solely to create
favorable impression; disappointment on the
part Of the purchaser who has been led to believe
that the possess qualities not put into it by the
manufacturer.
The day when superlatives are relied upon to
sell either in advertising or sales talk is rapidly
passing away.
Such expressions as "Greatest value ever con.
ceived, "Worth 900 to 49, 500 more than is asked
for it, Unbelievable specifications at the price,
etc. ETC., have gone into the discard to stay-thanks
to real rather than fanciful values in present day
motor cars, and to saner and more business-like
salesmanship.
1t is not necessary to resort to sensational
methods to sell the Dodge Brothers Motor Car

Urge HawIey
For Congress

State officers are interested in
the reports that are being circu-
lated urging James H. Hawley, ex-
governor of this state, to become
a candidate for congressman at
the coming Democratic primaries.
It is said that the boom was
launched without the knowledge
or consent of the most honored
citizen" Of this state. 1t has
been going the rounds in the state
press and not a little comment is
being made on it. The claim is
put forth that if Mr.. Hawley could
be induced to run, was nominal
ed and elected, he would soon rise
to a commanding position in the
lower halls of congress as leader
of western representatives.-Cap-

word from Spirit Lake that a
man thought to be Fred Clancy
has been arrested there and is be-
ing held until the officers here
;Ould arrive. Deputy Sheriff
Toohey left Wednesday for that

Mr.. Toohey returned Thursday
vening and reported that the sus-
pect was not Clancy. He stated
that the man answered the de-
scriptiOn in every particular.
Mr.. Toohey was sure from talk
ing with people who had seen the
Spirit Lake man that he was
Clancy and was much disappOint-
ed over the outcome of his trip.
Clancy is wanted here for the
supposed murder of Oscar Olson
and there is a reward of $500 Of
fered for his arrest and delivery

Mothers Club
Plans For Park

The Mothers Club is planning
on fixing up the old cemetery
grounds for a public park. At
a meeting held Tuesday afternoon
at the residence of Mrs. Frank
Noble the matter was taken up
and discussed and a committee
was appointed to circulate a pc
tition asking the city council to
turn the grounds into a park and
another committee was appointed
to bring the matter before the
council.
The ladies are planning on
raising the necessary money to
fix up the grounds, once the
council sets them aside for park
purposes. These grounds can
be made into a neat park which
will be a very much needed i'm
prOvement to the city.

Goes East To
Consult FinanCierS

State Senator Jerome J. Day
of Moscow is Idaho's representa-
tive to make the trip to Chicago
and consult there with the syndi-
cate behind a prominent engineer
on the closing of a contract f.
nancing the north and south rail
road. Negotiations carried on
between Governor Alexander and
Senator Day, as we'll as his bro
Their, Harry L. Day, the we'll
known mining man of Wallace,
resulted in the consent of Sena-
tor Day being secured. He left
for Chicago Tuesday.
1t has been announced that
Aaron Parker of Grangeville, an
other member of the north and
south railroad commission, will
be asked to make the Chicago trip
in response to urgent kilograms
from the engineer who made the
inspection of the road last sum-
mer for capitalists of eastern
states. He stated in his tele-
gram that if the state could send
a representative to Chicago, he
was prepared to talk business and
close a contract for the building
of the railroad.
That the mission of the Idaho
representative is one of para
mount importance is evident from
the tone of the kilograms received.
