Were reciprocal rules in operation,

EUROPE IGNORES
U. S. MOTOR FEATS
Maxwell Beat Great Brit
aims Best but Gets Only
American Mark.

Should Eddie Rickenbacher, the fam
Gus Maxwell pilot-or any of the other
speed demons of premier fame-cele-
brate the first race of 1916 by rolling
900 miles in two hours. or some such
revolutionary figure. the result could
be nothing more then an American re-
cord. No such thing as worlds re-
cord can be successfully claimed, when
the feat is accomplished in the United
States, under the sanction Of the Amer
team Automobile association.
This strange and anomalous condi-
ton arises from the fact that, with
characteristic European aloofness, the
automobile judiciary across the sea re-
cognizes no performance in America as
really authentic.
Despite the fact that many recent
American records excel those on the
books of the automobile clubs Of Great
Britain and France, recent compilations
of European records placidly ignore
them and still refer to venerable Euro
pean feats as worlds records.
Our Dust too Thiek2
The American Automobile associa-
ton. after vainly trying 20 secure mu-
tual recognition which would result in
a real table of worlds records, has tenn
porarily given up the battle and mod
estly refers to all marks established
under it's jurisdiction as American re-
cords-only this and nothing more.
One immediate effect Of this condi-
ton is to rob the endurance champion
Maxwell touring car of the technical
right to claim a worlds title.
The MAXWELL stock touring car
recently completed, under American
Automobile ass ,iation supervision. a
run of 22,022.3 miles without a motor
stop. The best prior American record
was less than 1900 miles. In Europe
the best prior mark was less than
1900 miles-to the credit of the Rolls
Royce. Yet the Maxwell can qualify
merely for an American record and the
stolid Britons will doubtless continue to
regard the Rolls Royce as the world s

HUNDRED THOUSAND
MAXWELL FORECAST

One hundred thousand automobiles
of the familiar standard type will be
the output of the Maxwell Motor COM
pany's big factories during the next
year, according to announcement re-
ceived by the Bannock Motor Sales
company, local Maxwell dealer, from
Detroit yesterday.
The expansion of the Maxwell COM
pany, under its present policy of pro-
ducing but a single chassis, has been
remarkable, even in this day of rapid
motor car development. Several years
ago the first of the familiar 20 types
made its appearance. Since then the
production has NOR than doubled it,
self each season. until now 100, 900 cars
are necessary to fill the natural de-
mand.
In order to keep UP with the produc-
ton, extensive building of the immense
factories at Detroit and Newcastle,
Indiana, where the parts department il
located, has been under way for some
time. The capacity of the huge plants
last year. and advance specifications
indicate that they will be run at full
speed for. the entire coming year.

LITTLE OVERLAND
CAR HAS ARRIVED
Small Auto Placed on the
Market at Low Price
Is Here.

Is 1t here?,
This is the question that has been
asked Mr.. Ash of the Boise Overland
company ever since the announcement
that the WHY'S Overland company
would build small car to sell for s615.
Mr.. Ash is glad to now say that it is
here and he IS ready and willing to give
any kind of a demonstration that a
buyer would want.
This little car Is without question
the best buy on the automobile market
of today" said Mr.. Ash. 1T is of the
very latest design, having the rounded
radiator. stream line body. built-in rain
vision windshield, one man top and full
floating rear axle. The gasoline is car
ried in a tank located in the dash. 1t
has electric starter lights and horn,
cantilever rear springs, the latest type
n-block motor and high tension mag
neto. In fact it has everything that a
person could wish for in a car" Mr..
Ash says that along with their other
cars that they have the model SO for
1896. the model "a WHY'S Knight for
SIPS and the model SO Overland six
cylinder for s1145 and the latest addi-
ton to the Overland family, which is
the model rs. for $615. He declares
that they will have the best selling line
that can be had. He also states that
the prospects are not waiting for spring
to come but are buying the cars as fast
as the Boise Overland company can get
them.
This should be as a barometer, for
when automobile sales are good that
shows that every other kind of business
is growing better. Lets all boost for
better business, not in the spring but
now" said Mr.. Ash. Remember this:
that yesterday is gone, today is here
and tomorrow may never come

distributors of the famous Maxwell and
Chalmers line of cars have found their
present quarters too small entirely for
their growing business. and have just
closed lease for long term of years
whereby they come into possession of
the entire building on Grove street be-
tween Tenth and Eleventh streets for
meriy occupied by Kent's garage. The
premises are to be remodeled and more
conveniently arranged and when the
changes are all made 1t will be a model

benefit to them but will also result in
more elbow-room for the growing gar

FOUND IN
ELDORADO CANYON
RARE METAL REPORTED IN
PAYING QUANTITY IN
SOUTHERN DISTRICT

The most important developmO
in E%ldorado, Canyon recently is the
discovery of platinum on the Edo
RADIO Enterprise Gold Mining COM
pany's property. This fact is fully
established and leaves no doubt that
Eldorado Canyon has added another
precious metal to her already num-
erous collection.
The first assay for platinum was
made by H. II. Wheeler of Needles,
Cal. the assayer. The second as
say was also submitted to MIR.
Wheeler for a check and was found
IN carry 20 ounces platinum per
ton, or 5000 per ton in this me-
tai, at the present market price.
Much higher assays are anticipated
as the samples referred to were
mostly surface r from the gold
bearing ledge. Assays from this
property also showed very good
values in gold and silver.
Following the work of the FL
dorado Canyon Publicity Associa-
ton, m the news that all ma
chinery for a live weekly newspaper
has been bought and will be Install
ed, unless something unforeseen
happens, in Eldorado and be ready
for publication before the 18th of
December next. George A. McCar-
ter, a we'll known newspaper man
in mining circles. will be the edi-
tor.
Excellent ore carrying values hlgh
in gold were discovered on the
Woods lease, which adjoins the Car
nation claim. The ore body is an
extension of the Carnation vein,
and promises to be quite as inter
esting with additional development.
German, Fisher & Herman, leas-
ers on the Lombard claim, which
adjoins the Carnation claim, are
now securing figures preparatory
tc installing a stamp mill and cya-
hide plant in the near future to mill
the high-grade ores taken from this
property. These men have shown
absolute confidence in the future OF
Eldorado Canyon and were reward
ed in finding the rich ore on the
Lombard.-Clark County Review.
