OAKLAND GOES

Ascends Bald Mountain, the

Powerful Cars.

81 always had an idea that the Oak
land eight had real pOwer-in fact
I've been sure of it ever since 1 drove
the first eight all over my territory
INIT / received some very gratifying
news this week" said a. II. Elmore,
General manager of the Oakland Auto
sales company Mr.. Gilmore then dis
nlaved a clipping from a Detroit pa
Der, showing the results OF hill
climbing test by an Oakland eight" at
the famous Bald mountain in Oakland
county, Mich. In part, it reads:
For the second time in its history
the summit of Bald mountain has been
reached by a motor car Last week an
Oakland eight drove up its roadless
side to the very pinnacle. And the
feat stands out as doubly remarkable
because the driver was unable to speed
the machine to get a running start as
he came to the steep slope from a
twisting country lane. There was not
even a path up the mountain side where
the car made its climb. The As percent
grade was covered with sod. sand and
gravel, making the ascent all the more
difficult
starting slowly, the driver Of the
Oakland steered straight for the climb
and gave her the gas The car never
faltered an instant. but kept on right
up the As percent incline until it
reached the very summit
Ever since motor cars have been
built in Michigan it has been the am
bition Of motor car makers to have
their cars climb Bald mountain. Many
manufacturers have sent their most eX
pert drivers to attempt the climb, but
until the Oakland eight went UP the
side, only one other car had ever sue
ceeded That was an eight cylinder
automobile in the $4,000 class.
"In discussing the feat, the driver OF
the successful Oakland eight said:
The Bald mountain climb made by the
Oakland EIGHT" must not be confused
with the frequent ascents made over
the socalled Bald mountain road. This
road goes over the side Of Bald noun
tain, but does not even approach the
top.
we went right ahead. though a
farmer who had seen many failures as

the Oakland reached the summit he was

son the Oakland succeeded where other
cars failed is. IN my opinion, because
Of its ideal weight suspension, which
gave the car tracTage and because its
gasoline supply was not affected by the
angle at which the car made the
climb"

P. organizations combined for
the city campaign and raised a
''slush fund" of $4,000, which
was headed by a contribution
Of $500, from U. S. Senator 7. B

Clancy and Mayor Sargent, who

threats of police persecution and
court persecution, and of tax
raises, were freely INDUCED in to
intimidate voters, and probably
the most brazen manipulation Of
a jury selection in the history of
New Mexico was resorted to.
Out Of 365 names placed in the
jury box for the spring term of
the district court, only II were
those of Democrats, although the
Democratic voters of the county
were entitled to 145, and of the
81 men drawn for the grand and
petit juries only two were men,
bers Of the Democratic party.
Moreover, 81 of the 81 jurors
drawn were residents of the pre-

Democratic ward in the city of

bosses desired to present an OBJ
ject lesson Of their power to die
