A SUBSTITUTE FOR GASOLINE

The price of gasoline is soaring
to immense proportions on account
of it's great use in automobiles and
other industries and this high price
will lead to tile invention of some
other power of lccomotion for the
automobile.
The millions of miles of space be-
tween the earth and the planet Mars,
after certain heighth, is filled
with deoxidized gas that contains
neither oxygen or hydrogen. 1t is
up to some ingenious Yankee to util-
ize this heretofore useless material,
by an invention whereby it may
become of comm ercial value as a
motive power, and Thereby lessen
the millions CT dollars Of revenue to
the Rockefellers.
This deoxidized gas is floating
in space, and not subject to tire rul-
ings of any land office, and as yet,
its territory las rot been claimed
by the British government, and
out royalty. This gfs could be froz-
zen the same as liquid air, and its
gradual melting would emit heated
emanations enough to drive a rs
horse power engine that would climb
any hill in Enos Mills Rocky Noun
tain Park" reserve. A small tube
inserted under the seat CT "Tin
Lizzie" with pipe connecting this
frigid element with the engine, is
all that would be required, and
should the supply be exhausted on
long trip the machine could be
supplied with frozen affection.
Let Henry Fo d drop Benny Lind
sey and his peace negotiations, and
allow his brain to reason out this
feasible idea and he will confer a
greater benefit on the human race
than sailing let OF nonentit'es over

A SANE VIEW OF
THE PROHIBITION LAW

When our forefs thors founded this

tirely usurred the freedom and priv

They had been taught that their
forefathers Lad let. a land where
oppression reigned supreme, and sail

country (save only by tie poor In

as well as equal justice. One Of the
crowning sections in that memorable
document written by Jefferson, that
we all hope will stand as long as
time. specifically states that proper
ty belonging to another shall not
be wantonly confiscated without due
PREPARATION.
The foundation stcne OF this re-
public is democracy. and all the

as "one who believes in political and

BIG EARNINGS OF
TOM REED STOCK

Oatman, Ariz.-The Tom Reed
cents share ard have returned
since 1910 almost So in dividends. No
stock is to be purchased at tie
present time, as all Of the holders
are satisfied, but if 1t were. it would
bring about 81 share.
One thousand five hundred dollars
invested in the Tom Reed stock in
1910 would have paid back 100000
would be worth $4,000 now. These
ere the kind of stories tibet are
wr;tten Up by the promoters to at
tract people to 10 and 15-cent stocks.
TIE Tom Reed las produced over
Sc 900, 900 and is snruscly paying in
dividends &C per cent on the par
value OF its stock, also laying away
large surplus. Although there is
but 100000 par value of the stock
outstanding the whole plant only rep
reeents an investment of 100000.
To tie purchaser of stock at Is
cents, this mine is returning over
four times ttat amount year.
Yet all this is being done on a
low production as compared with our

only $50 tons of ore daily at value
of less than s25 rer ton, but has a

NOT BENEFITED BY WAR

We have been wi, ely remove ed from

THE GREEN RIVER
DREDGE TO RESUME

Mr.. Sherman is a minirg man of
some prominence having operated in
Colorado, ALASKA and Mexico for the

poets on Green river equal to any

The dredge was installed some 5
years ago but has never been operat-
ed to any extent. The Unitah Min
ing, Irrigation & Exploration ccm-
pany spent in the neighborhood of
$50, 700 on the property but through
stock manipu alton the company was
thrown into the hands of receiver.
The Un'tah Mini company gained
control. This company operated but
a short time when the manager,
Henry Praefke, who was also prin-
cipal stakeholder, was drowned in
Green river.
e. C. Sherman and Geo. E. Phil
