+ PORK PIE.

The ability Of the democrats to re
solve the demand for preparedness in
to an excuse for congressional pork
is matter OF wonder to anyone &C
quainted with their general incompe
tency. II all the democratic bills that
have been introduced in this congress
providing for munitions plants to be
located in various democratic congress
sional districts were acted upon favor
ably, there wouldn't be enough money
left in the federal treasury to pay fol
hauling the munitions away from the
factories. When opportunity knocks
at democratic headquarters it is sand
bagged and frisked to the skin.

A WILSON TARIFF COMMISSION.

Representative Barnhardt of lndi'
ana, went to the white house with an
idea. AS he came away he could hear
from the presidents room the echoinS
words, "The ideal"
Mr.. Barnhardt's idea was developed
in connection with the discussion OF a
tariff commission. The Hoosier
statesman recognizes that a tariff com.
mission can do nothing except to in
vestigate and report-to somebody
That somebody naturally SHOULD be
thei congress- wliichss body s1aloile has
the authofity~tO make taiffk changes;
and it is Mr. Barnhardt's idea that the
tariff board should be directly srespon'
sible to congress. To make this idea
effective and to give to the board that
"non.partisan" quality which has been
desired for it, Mr.. Barnhardt proposed
that each leading party in the senate
and in the house should name one
member of the board and that the
president, should appOintsa fifth. ,2r.a
The president would have none OF
this, however HeN insists that If a
tariff commission is to be set up, he
shall have the naming Of every one OF
the men who shall compose it. In 9th
er words, Wilson wants a Wilson tar.
if commission. This is in line with his
whole career. At Princeton he made
it point whenever a trustee of the
university was to be chosen. to put
forward Wilson man for the place:
similarly, when an officer of instruc-
tion-down to the lowest tutor-was
to be selected, he took, pains to get a
Wilson man on the job! He never ap.
pointed a committee of the Princeton
faculty that he did not stuff it with a
majority of Wilson supporters. AS
president of the United States he has
pursued the same course. He intends
to put none but Wilson men on guard.
Congressman Barnhardt would make
up the tariff board with some regard

WHAT CAThRRH IS

1t has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has s4pwnthat nasal catarrh
often indicatesSa general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in Scott's Emulsion which IS a
medicinal food and builGing-tonic, free
from alcohol or any harmful drugs. Tryit.

Since January first $4,000 quarters
of beef, $4,000 carcasses of mutton
and $1,000 carcasses of lamb have
come into the United States from Ar
gentina. Under the democratic tariff
law they came in free Of duty, but here
would have been the source OF a nif
ty bit OF revenue under the republican
tariff law, and the price of meat to the
consumer would have been in no wise
increased. The democrats will make
up for the loss by placing a direct tax
on something else. tB

IN LOUISIANA

In the recent sales contest, conduct.
ed for dealers and statesmen OF the
Chalmers Motor Company, E. j. Thur
Der of the W. p. Farmhouse Automo-
bile Company of New Orleans. won
the Chalmers Six-30 touring car Of
fered as first prize ..s-
Each year the sales contest is the
most eagerly awaited event on the
Chalmers calendar, and the erthusi-
asm with which statesmen and distribu-
tors took up the friendly trade rivalry
eclipsed that of any other season.
In the contest each salesman was
assigned secret quota, determined
BY the size and population of his re-
spective territory. The man living in
small country town was given as
fair chance in the contest as one
living IN the bigger centers OF popula-
tion
Thurber's percentage of quota was
330. SO, giving him the motor car by a
big margin.
Besides the Chalmers Six offered
as first prize in the contest, total
of S4250 in cash and large number
bags were awarded to the statesmen
finishing next in order.
A. L. Hamilton of the Chalmers
Northwest Company, Minneapolis, won
$500 in cash as second prize; Earl
n. Manbeck of the Iowa Auto & Sup
ply Company, Des Moines, finished
third and won $500; Jos. F. Janin, Zell
Motor Car Company, Baltimore, fourth
place: $780, Roy Allen, Alley-kester-
son Auto Company, Lincoln. Neb.,
fifth place, 5000. All OF these men
made over 900 per cent of quota in the
contest.
In the distributors contest, which
was carried on simultaneously, P. w.
Maloney of Commerce, Texas, cap
tured fist prize, $3.50 in cash, with
1875 per cent of quota. Second and
third prizes of $500 and $500 respec-
lively were won by E. S. Lingo, Nor
wich. Iowa. and the Brown Sales Com
pany, Brown, Texas,
In the division for dealers securing
the greatest number of sub-agents, the
Wyckoff Motor Company Of Pittsburg
was awarded first prize of SIPS. FIT
teen new dealers were signed up by
the wholesale men of the Wyckoff
company during the six weeks of the
contest. The Arnold Automobile Com
pany Of Wichita, Kansas, finished sec
ond with the Chalmers Northwest
Company third.
The contest was the most successful
ever held among Chalmers statesmen.
Over 1900 statesmen and 500 Chalmers
distributors entered and, although car
.ried ON during the so-called slack sea
SON of he year, the continued steady
demand for Chalmers cars resulted in
the establishment of many remark
able sales records by the dealers and
statesmen entered in the contest.

ROAD
MOST EXPENSIVE

Road building is developing a new
science that calls for the highest en-
cheering skill. The advent OF the
motor car and truck has brought new
problems that must be studied and
solved. This statement is MADE Ds
the good roads committee OF the Nd
tional Automobile Chamber OF COM
merce.
In Massachusetts S2l5 per cent oil
all traffic on the state highway sys-
ten last year was motor driven. III
New York cars, trucks and motor Dus-
SEES constitute nearly seven-tenths OIL
all wheeled traffic exclusive OF street
cars and motorcycles. Similar condl-
tions soon will prevail in all parts OF
the country.
Rapidly changing traffic conditions
demand the. service OF technically
trained men who not only are quail
fled civil engineers, but who nave
made study of road economics and
the wearing qualities and cost OF con-
struction and, maintenance OF differ
ent kinds of pavements, because the
proper administration of road affairs
is more essential than the highest de-
gree of engineering skill.
Too often faulty road conditions
are due to too small appropriations
in the endeavor to make cheap sur
face endure under heavy traffic.
Where traffic of any consequence ex'
lists, the cheapest road to build is
usually the most expensive in the end.
Efficient highway engineers will save
taxpayers millions of dollars in years
to come by the selection of proper
materials and hfgh-class construction
work.
Some of the states and cities require
candidates for appointment to the
highway departments to pass civil
service examination, thus removing
the offices from political influence.
This is greatly to be desired. Men
who have shown good administrative
ability should be continued in office.
In the communities where this policy
has oeen followed there is general sat
isfaction with road and street condi-
tions.
