There seems to be no reason
for thinking that the American
people will turn from Woodrow
Wilson, for whom they entertain
profound respect, and to whom
they feel themselves obligated
for his safe and sane policy
which has preserved the country
from war, and replace him as
President with Charles E.
Hughes. 1t is impossible to di-
vine a cause for such a course.
No claim can be established by
the adherents of Hughes upon
the highest office within the gift
of the voters, and it cannot be
shown that he is needed in the
executive chair for any other
purpose than to restore the Re-
.publicans to ofice.-San Fran

From the Sedaia Leader.
Samuel C. Major of Fayette, Howard county, former mem
Der OF the Missouri State Senate from the Fourteenth Dis
trct is a candidate for the democratic nomination for congress
man in this district, and his formal announcement appears in
The Leader.
Senator Major goes before the Democracy of the Seventh
District with the strongest kind of endorsements from the
Howard county Democratic committee, the Howard county
officers, the Howard county Medical society and the Howard
county Bar Association, and with words of commentator from
many OF the most widely read of the Democratic newspapers
OF the district. The newspapers of the Fourteenth Senatorial
District, such as the BuncetOn Eagle, the Versailles Leader and
the Boonvlle Advertiser in recommending Senator Major to the
voters OF the Seventh Congressional District, point to his ac-
of the passenger and freight toll charges at the Boonvhle bridge
OF the Katy, introduced and caused to become a law the act e-
tabllshing the State Poultry Board and the farm at Mountain
Grove; nterceded for the public in the matter of railway re-
sponslblhty for baggage in transit and charges for same and
had passed a law long demanded by travelling men; created the
Missouri Waterways commission, a board of great benefit to
river counties of the state; fathered an act giving the county
courts power to acquire lands for county farms.
Senator Major voted for and assisted in the passage of
the electric headlight bill, the bill providing for the equipment
OF trains with safety appliances, an act requiring the employees
OF railroads to be paid the 18th of each month, an act COM
polling railroads to fill switches and guard rails for safety of
employees, an act extending the provisions of the felow-ser-
want law to mines and mining employees, an act providing for
certain mines daily, and all other measures tending to benefit
the wage workers.
Senator Major is a gentleman Of pleasing personality. and
while in Sedalia during the past week made many new friends.
His record in the upper branch of the Missouri legislature was
one of achievement, and if elected to Congress he will as faith
fully represent the interest of the constituency of this district
in the halls of Congress.

their present plant and will assure

The question OF delivery is as
serted to be an important one to the

demand for moderate-priced cars has
caused many disappointments this

However, the Allen manufacturers
with the steadily increased facilities,

Eddie 0'Donnell
Buys Mitchell for
His Personal Use

Eddie O'Donnell, who has come to
the front so rapidly in the last few
months as one Of the premier drivers
of the country, after winning over
$4,000 as first money in four con-
secutive races in Lower California,
has just placed his order for a second
Mitchell.
After winning the last sweepstake
race over the famous road course in
southern California, he dropped in on
the Los Angeles Mitchell dealer land
made arrangements for the delivery
of a second Mitchell in New York
this month during the Sheepshead
Bay races.
Mrs. O'Donnell remains in Cali
fornia with the first Mitchell car for
her permanent use, and as a worthy
representative of her now famous
husband, she will burn up the roads
of southern California while Eddie
wins further fame and fortune on
the eastern circuit.
"The Mitchell for my own personal
use every time" is the way Eddie
expresses it. mo car at any price, no
car of any power gives me the pure
pleasure of driving that my Mitchell
does. 1t is a source of never ending
delight to sit back Of the wheel and
forget the heavy swirling pounding
of the oval track and when they
build a car that rides better, that is
as easy to control, as flexible and as
near perfect as my Mitchell baby,
they will make me believe the millen-
mum in automobile building has
come"

Winners Of Motor
Derby at Chicago
Praise Cord Tires

Chicago, June 1.-THE terrific duel
at the Chicago Motor derby between
those two Italian automobile pilots
De Palma and Resta-brought to
mind comparisons between tires Of
today and yesterday.
The advances made in tire-making
were responsible for those two for
eign speed monsters going through
space for 800 miles at the dizzy pace
of 100 miles an hour without the least
particle of tire trouble. Neither
Resta nor De Palma was required to
stop because of tire trouble.
1t is true Resta took his customary
precaution at an opportune moment
to change the right rear tire, but he
did not have to do it. He knew that
particular tire had received more than
its fair share of the thrust of 1000
pound mass against an obstruction in
the line of travel, and he responded
to the safety first" idea that had
been drummed into him.
what do these two think of the
Goodrich Silvertown Cord Tires with
which their cars were shod?" That
question was put directly to De
Palma the day after the race. His
answer was characteristic Of the
man; it was the best answer he could
have given, the best endorsement that
could have been bestowed upon the
name Goodrich and its brand of Sill
vertown cord tires. well, l have to
buy them"
Resta used them, too; he bought
them, too; his endorsement, too, was
as short and concise as that of his
native brother: 81 could find nothing
so good" The first nine cars to fin
ish in that great 300-miles race were
shod with Goodrich Silverton cord
tires,

Tire Prices Only
Fraction What They
Were Ten Years Age

Although there has been a slight
advance in tire prices, the motorist
may find consolation in the thought
that tires now cost only about one
third as much and give about ten
times as much mileage as they did a
decade ago. The present advance is
only a drop in the bucket-a step
backward, if you will.
The tire that costs you $40 now
used to cost $50. You can safely ex-
pect anywhere from 5000 to 10000
miles from it. In the old days you
were lucky if you got from 500 to
1000 miles.
The first American tire on the mar
ket was The Diamond in 1899. There
were no presidents established, no
experience to go by except what had
been learned in making bicycle tires
and garden hose. Hence the first an
tomobile tire was single tube af-
fair Punctures were a constant bug
aboo. and frantic efforts were made
to find substitute for the pneumatic
rubber automobile tire.
AShS ndSu DSCu dLy SUBSTITUTE
and from present indications there
never will be, for rubber has been
found to outwear steel in grinding on
the road. Rubber compounds are now
a certainty. The double tube tire
makes the old single tube look foolish.
The carrying capacity of different
sizes is absolutely known. Non-skid
treads have been developed and in
fact every element of utility has been
so thoroughly incorporated in the
modern automobile tire that the max
ers have actually had time to make it
look handsome
Take, for instance, the final touch
of color. The Diamond had a black
squeegee tread with red side walls.
The subdued but elegant finishings
on the modern car now find their
complement in the Diamond black
and red tire.
