employed as it depends largely on cir

several hundreds employed In one way

AUTO SHOW GIVES
TWIN FALLS FAME
Illinois Man Thought 1t Proved City to
Be Intermountain MetrOpolis-Ma-
gazines and Press Praise Enterprise.

The dealers who are to exhibit at
the Twin Falls automobile show are
showing a splendid spirit of patriotism
and loyalty for the home town, spir-
it which will warm the heart of Nels
Darling when he hears of it. The show
is doing more TO advertise Twin Falls
than anything which has happened in
a long time, result which was anti
cipated by the Commercial club Off
GERS when they first proposed the
plan for this show.
The Motor Age, an automobile trade
paper published at Chicago, which
goes to nearly every automobile deal
er in America, lists the Twin Falls
show, as does also the Motor World,
published in New York.
Newspapers and magazines In great
numbers are recognizing the fact that
Twin Falls, in putting on the first au-
tomObile show ever held in the state
Of Idaho, Is far ahead of the average
town of its age.
One of the local automobile men,
who made trip up around HALEY re-
Gently, states that he talked to no less
than twenty-five men who are plan
ming to come TO the Twin Falls auto
show. Word has been received from
points as far distant as Idaho Falls,
Salt Lake City and Boise. and from
intermediate points, that great many
are planning to attend.
One Twin Falls citizen received a
letter last week from a friend in Illi-
nois, in which he said he had sup
posed this was a new town, but that
he had noticed in the magazines that
Twin Falls was to have the first au-
tomobile show in the state and that
ne therefore supposed that Twin Falls
must now be the metropolis of the in
termountain country
1t is up to the people of Twin Falls
10 show these public spirited automo-
bile dealers who are contributing to-
ward the success of the show that they
appreciate the good work they are do
ing In helping TO establish Twin Falls
as the commercial center of this sec
ton. OF course these dealers expect
TO reap a financial reward for the
trouble and expense they are going to,
but nevertheless their red-blooded en-
thusiasm and their money are essen
tial factors in making the show the
unqualified success which 1t promises
TO be.

PRESIDENT ASKS
FOR RECORD VOTE
No Compromise Such as a Vote

served notice on congress Wednesday
night that he would consent to nothing
less than a record vote on the anti
administration resolutions 10 waSa

ropean belligerents before he goes ON

No compromise proposition, such as
a vote of confidence in the presidents
foreign policy. will be accepted. Such
an action It is held, might be con
strued in Berlin as justifying the op-
inion that the president lacks the sup
port of congress and his own party in
his demands for a full observance of
international law, while its only pur-
pose would be to afford members of
congress a way to avoid recording
their positions before the country os
the straight out-and-out question.
President Wilson made his position
clear to congressional leaders We'd
nesday night in unequivocal terms. as
the climax to a day of confusion, un-
certainty and dolitical maneuvering
which marked the opening of his first
real fight with congress.
AS if to emphasize that the preei-
dent absolutely refuses to continue
the negotiations with Germany until
the attitude of congress has been set
tied, it was made known that the Unit
ed States does not consider the latest

en-. No further step will be taken,
however, while the president waits ON
congress. Meanwhile the pending Lu-
sitania agreement will not be finally
accepted
The presidents friends openly
charge that resistance to his program
is purely political They make it un-
mistakably clear that he does not in
tend to let the question be passed over

that the extent of the opposition whick
the president faces may be judged

foreign affairs committee in botl
branches of congress, and even Speak

warm in their support of him

canvass have satisfied themselves thai

AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF
MINING ENGINEERS

Leading metal producing companies
from all sections of the country will
be represented by members of thier
staff at the meeting of the American
Institute Of Mining Engineers, which
conveneS in Arizona on September
18th. The country's record produc-
ton of metal during the past year has
greatly stimulated the interest in
those general mining topics which
will be discussed at the Institutes
sessions.
More than twenty corporations have
already expressed a desire to be rep
resented by Institute members who
may participate in the technical gath
ering. Some of these are Anaconda
Copper Mining Co., the largest cop
per producing company in the coun-
try; American Smelling and Refining
Co., the largest lead producing COM
pany; Ray Consolidated Copper Co.,
Treadwell and Alaska Juneau mines,
Miami Copper Co., and the New Jer-
sey Zinc Co. Among the prominent
engineers who will be present are
L. D. Ricketts,, Benjamin B. Thayer,
William L. Saunders, Sidney j Jen-
nings, George D. Barron and Phillip
N. Moore. A special train from
New York will be the travelling head
quarters, the train moving from point
to point in Arizona each day during
the week of the Convention.
Some seventy papers have been
prepared for discussion at the meet
ing. These papers bear largely upon
new methods of production and the
mining outlook in various parts of the
world.
Some of the most important of these
are:

MOTORISTS MAY NOW
"PAY As YOU RIDE"
Local Maxwell Representative An
nounces a New Deferred
Payment Plan
idea IS LOGICAL.
Similar to thai Employed With Pr
amos, Real Estate and
Other Sales.
idea IS LOGICAL

Acting on the sound principle
that automobiles can and will
eventually be generally sold on
the same basis as pianos, real
estate and other commodities of
value, Mr.. Avis Stephens, of the
IT. H. Cochran Hardware Co.,
local Maxwell representatives,
announces in this issue a time
payment plan by which the pros
pectiveJmotorists of this city and
vicinity can secure Maxwell cars
without any appreciate en-
croachment on their financial re-
sources and investments.
Pay as you RIDE" is the con-
else way in which Mr.. Stevens
summarizes the details of the
plan.
Modern conditions often de-
mand that a man make use of
his entire capitol in his business
or in his professional equip
ment, declares Mr.. Stevens.
Often, even the relatively
small amount needed to pay the
cash-down price of even a Max
well automobile Is large enough
to keep him from taking his
money from the channels in which
il is at work.
The automobile business
must recognize this condition. |
have worked oft a plan which |
am putting into effect here, for
the benefit of my customers who
may be so situated.
This plan enables the man of
average means to buy a car and
enjoy it while he is paying for it,
and enables him, as well, to pay
for it out of his regular income.
This plan | am putting at work
today. 1t will be eligible in the
case of every car | can secure
from the Detroit factory, and
my schedule calls for more Max
well cars than have ever been
delivered here in any cold wealth
er month. AT present can make
