Some of Our 26 Extras

These are some of the extras which the New

that with other Sixes
Motor-drven tire pump. with pressure gauge
on the tubing.
Reversible head lamps ghts which shine

ceeded beyond others through efficiency.
In 1903 when we entered motor car
buildine-we aimed to minimize factory
costs in that line. We knew the time would
come when supreme efficiency would make
one car the master of its class.
!. It has taken Is years, because the line
was new. Countless machines had to be
invented, countless ideas evolved. .
! 1t took ten years to arrive at settled
model, after building Fours, Skies and

! In the Mitchell Light Six We found, it
seems, the type that has come to stay. And
we are equipped to build that type in the
finest way at the lowest cost. The evidence
lies in the many Mitchell features which
are not found in other cars.

compared with other lines.
But there has for years been an over-demand.
The value in cars was not scrutinized closely Com.

efficiency has been little considered among cars of
the Mitchell grade.
Insatate demand is all that tided this industry
through years of such matches extravaganza.
Done by John w. Bate
~ John W. Bate, expert in efficiency, was the
first big man we brought to this motor car factory.
This great engineer had for II years devoted his
Genius to factory efficiency Several vast industries
had been revolutionized by his methods.
We secured able designers, inventors and sales
men. But note that our chief man was an efficiency
expert He came in our infancy as motor car
builders. And the place the New Mitchell will
claim from now on is due to John w. Bate.
This great Mitchell plant is as fine an example
of factory efficiency as is found in any line in
America.

and representatives of the dramatic
department of the Columbian club en-
joyed a luncheon in the jungle room
at the Ow. ,hee hotel today, with Mrs.
Bertha Kunz Baker of New York as
the guest of honor. Mrs. Baker was
wide awake and interested in her visit
to Idaho. Immediately she began to
question the ladies concerning the
working of suffrage and stated that she
had put heart and soul into the work
in New York.
In a short address Mrs. Baker said:
ut always thrills me to remember that
in this great northwest country that
it Is due to the women grasping the
essential values that this country has
become a part of the national organiza-
ton: man alone could not have done 1t
without the woman at his side, and
that not alone was the woman neces-
sary to keep the fire on the hearth but
the flame on the altar also"
Mrs. Baker comes directly from Salt
Lake, where she gave a series of three
readings, and while there the presi-
dents of the women's clubs in the state

was assaulted by the strange man and
struck on the head by him when cross

REFUSED TO FILL A
CUT rate MERCHANT

Nampa, April 10.-That the provi-
sions of the federal Sherman antitrust
law are to be rigidly enforced in their
applications to commerce in this state
was abundantly evidenced in this city
last Saturday Afternoon when a local
grocer called up the milling company
and advised it that his supply of flour
was exhausted and that he desired an
order filled Immediately. The COM
pany declined, consequent to the fact
that he vas cutting the Price of flour
and according to the ale ltions of the
company creating havoc In the local
flour market.
Upon the refusal of the company TO
honor his order, the grocer consulted
his attorney. who advised the milling
company that it's action as viola
ton of the federal law, and that he
would fully protect his client. Evil
IDENTIFY impressed by the legal Informal
ton given, the grocer's order was at
once honored by the company.
The incident is considered by mem
bers of the legal fraternity in this city
as one which is likely 70 prove of
statewide Importance, and to give 4
great impetus to the enforcement Of
this particular federal statute in all
parts Of the state.

SOCIALIST LECTURER
PLEASES AUDIENCE

Ryan Walker, the Socialist lecturer
and cartoonist. spoke before a great
audience at the Majestic yesterday aft
ernoon.
Mr.. Walker Is an intensely force
full speaker in his more serious mo-
ments; dramatic in fervor when the
deep, terrible problems of human woe
are assailed, and equally as funny
when relating his stories of various
nations. The cartoons are second
airy to the lecture and a running COM
ment Is entertainingly given. The
speakers attitude toward the great
questions relating to women and chill
dren, presented as a part of socialism,
was that of the profoundest sympathy
and the most bitter alignment of the
foes OF weaker beings of society. A
personal interview with the lecturer
disclosed him to be man of quiet,
domestic habits and kindly nature. He
was found sealed in circle Of little
children, making rapid sketches of
types of all kinds for the edification
Of his young friends.

Open MEETING Will
Be HELD BY Grange

= Meridian. April 1o.-At the regular
monthly meeting of the Meridian
grange held last Friday afternoon, two
communications of a similar nature
were considered, but final action was
deferred to an open grange meeting
which will be held tonight at 5 p. m. in
the Odd Fellows hall here. The
Boise Trades council has been invited
and quite delegation is expected to
attend this meeting.
Both communications deal with the
issue of preparedness" One is from
the American Federation of Labor and
the other is from the national grange.
Instead of disposing of these resolu-
lions by the grange alone it was deem
ed wise to have an open meeting and
ask the citizens of Meridian to partiei-
pate. A special invitation extended
to the ladies.

that strange woman in a delirious
condition had been found by him on

carried by the woman thought her to
be the wife of George Nelson of

SHORT Line ASKS
FOR A new TRIAL
Briefs to Be Prepared in the
Case Of Mrs. Smith
Against Railroad.

Caldwell. April 10.-In the district
court this morning the case of Smith
versus the Oregon Short Line railroad

neys for each side to prepare briefs.
The case is an action for damage in
the sum of approximately $4,000 against
the railroad company by Mrs. Smith,
wife of DIR. Smith of this city, as the
result of injuries sustained by her two
years ago when her buggy came into
collision with a train of the defendant
company. The verdict of the district
court was judgment in favor of the
plaintiff, and a final termination of
the base is being watched with the
keenest Of interest by Canyon county
citizens.
Today closes this term of court and
tomorrow morning Judge Bryan will
go to Weiser, where he will hold a reg
ular term of court for Washington
