Carson City daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1907-1930, 1916-09-19

Probably a crowd of 200, one
half of whom were women. had gath
cred on the lawn in front Of the state
capitol yesterday afternoon when
William Jennings Bryan, Senator Key
Pittman. Governor Boyle and the
rest OF their party arrived and as
ccnded the platform which had been
erected on the Capitol steps and
which was profuscly and handsome
" decorated with American flags.
Immediately large number of the
audience gathered about Mr.. Bryan
and gave him hearty cheer and
hand grasp, indicating that Nevada
people still retain the same rever-
ence for the Great Comm0ner" that
was evidenced in the years gone by
when they gave him the state i'll his
presidential campaigns.
In appearance Mr. Bryan has aged
but little since his visit to Carson
iour years ago. but in the Judgment
OF those whose pleasure it was to
hear him on that occasion. he has in
tellcctually grown bigger and broad
or and his speech of yesterday was
regarded as the greatest he ever de
livered in Nevada From every point
it was a masterpiece and had this ad-
vantage over former ones in that at
this time it was recital Of things ac-
cOmpli>hcd by the present Demo
cratic administration and not cr!ti-
cism or promise to correct existing
errors. Mr.. Bryan spoke quickly and
earnestly for an hour and twenty
minutes and refused at all times to
stop when applause threatened to
drown his voice. From the moment
he began until the end o! his dis
course he was given the most rapt
attention and there were mighty lew
who left the grounds during his talk,
The women were particularly inter
cstcd, for he talked on subjects that
are nearest their hearts and that he
wen their almost unanimous support
goes without sa1lng.
The meeting was called to order
by Governors Boyle, who in few
words Introduced Senator Pittman
who had been accorded the honor OF
preserving Mr.. Bryan. and as tn,
latter arouse from his chair he was
greeted with hand-claps that lasted
fully a minute.
Just before Mr.. Bryan began two
dogs close to the platform got into

Founded as memorial to Abraham

American. flags stretching across the
continent from New York to San

Observation-Disclosures, are some of the
plans that are being promoted for
celebrating Flag Day on June IA along
the route Of the highway.
The plan Of paying respect to the
flag in former years has been more
or less haphazard, and in some in
stances has been neglected. The pat.
riotism of school children, while not
lacking, has not been inculcated in as
thorough a manner as some wish. The

tributaries will provide a kernel for
the celebration, and the lesson taught

-FOUR TINES ADAY
With A MORELAVD

/ Paul NeWalu, local freighter be.
tween Honolulu, Hauula, Kaharo, Ka-
ne0he, Heeia and Kahaluu via the
Pail has been making two complete
round trips daily with his Moreland
distillate Iworindriye truck up and
down the steep grades of the Pail
road. @
Thursday, this week, Mr.. Newalu
presented himself at the Royal Hawai-
ian Garage and purchased two more
new Morelands for these trips.
Mr.. Newalu is the most ardent user
and booster for the Moreland worm
drive trucks In the territory as he has
been using his first AIoreland for
some time past and has found 1t to be
the most economical and safest for
these hard trips.
In making these two round trips dali
ly with his first Moreland, Mr.. Ne
walu claims that his fuel consump-
ton averaged for the four trips only
s1.20 per day, This is about three gal.
Ions of distillate used for each trip
over the Pail, which is about is miles
each way.
Mr., Newalu chose the Moreland
worm-driye truck on account of the
elimination of all possibility OF chain
breakhge while on the Pail grades,
which might prove disastrous. The
cheaped cost Of distilIate, which the
Moreland trucks are specially design.
ed for using. enables him also to cut
his fuel expense down to one.half the
cost of using gasoline.
On these trips Mr. Newalu carried
an average load of two tons or more,
although his first truck is only a 1As-s
ton capacity truck, which also speaks
a good deal for the stability OF the
make of truck he uses.

MOTOR TRUCKS .
HAUL SUPPLIES
ON RAILROADS
Engineer Solves Problem of
Transportation in War Zone;
Prove Success in Mexico

The first instance OF automobile
trucks doing service on the railroads
either in America or abroad was when
a Riker truck, made by the Locomo-
bile Company of America, made the
run from Columbus, N. NJ, to FL Paso,
Texas, a distance of SO miles, over
the rails OF the FL Paso and South
western system, as q demonstration
for. Gems. Scott and Funston. s.
The run was made with 20 soldiers
of the goth Infantry, a machine gun
and equipment on board. The dis
lance between Columbus, N. NJ, and
Ell Paso, Texas, was covered at an
average speed of 18 miles an hour,
actual running time.
On arrival at FL Paso the truck.
with its armed escort, was driven off
the rails and over the road to Gen.
SCOTS hotel, where Gems. Scott and
Funston made q careful inspection
of the vehicle. Gen. Scott and his
engineers pronounced the test to be
satisfactory.
The truck left Ell Paso the same
evening for the return trip to Column
bus.
These Riker trucks are to be, used
by the United States army in Next
CO, below Casas Grandes, where Gen.
Pershing controls the railroad.
The trucks have been equipped with
Hanged steel rims, fitted over the
wheels, which take the rails the same
as locomotive wheel.
Where the roads are unfavorable,
or are not the shortest distance be-
tween two points it may be necessary,
in an emergency, to transport supplies
and materials of all sorts by motor
truck over the railroad. This is par.
ticularly true of the present situation
in Mexico, where the roads are al.
most lost in the desert sand.
The inability Of the United States
force to use the railroads, with reg.
sular locomotive equipment and roll.
ing stock, in Mexico, has caused IN.
told hardship and deprivation on tiiA
part of the American forces at pres.
emit engaged in the punitive expedf,
tion IN Mexico.
This latest achievement of Mr..
Riker opens up new and important
field of endeayor for the gas motor
truck. Mr.. Riker is chairman OF the
committee Of internal combustion Of
the United States naval advisory
board.

LOCAL CAR WRECKED
NEAR ASTORIA
From the Astorianl

Miles Crossing, three miles from As
toria on the main highway to Seaside.
was the scene of the sixth or seventh
automobile accident last week when
the automobile driven by w. w. Foss,
of Hood River. and containing four
other people. including three ladies'.
was forced off the rod while passing
another touring car coming toward As
toria.
The Hood River car went over the
bank near the dyke and dropped into
the ditch six feet below, bringing up
with considerable force against a tele-
phone pole, where it stopped. The
right side OF the car was considerably
damaged, the running board being
broken and the tenders and side bent.
A telephone message to Astoria
brought another car to the rescue and
the machine was pulled from the ditch
and the trip to Seaside continued.
None of the occupants of the car were
injured.
Seeing the other car approaching,
Foss steered his car far over to the
right side Of the highway, with the
right wheels on the slope. The car
started to skid and went over the bank
before it could be stopped, alighting
right side up at the bottom of the
ditch.
The driver of the other car showed
little consideration for the Hood River
car, hogging most of the road.

ian says:
Don't think Billy Sunday is illiterate

quote from classics and talk about sci
ence, history, literature, the arts, poll
tics and current events. as readily as
he can pour forth diatribe against Ii.
quor, the devil and the obstinate sin
nre. He did some of each yesterday.
He wound up with tribute to Hood
River: eff the Lord ever opens up the
heavens and tells the angels to jump
down onto the finest spot on earth,
they'll land in the Hood River Valley. I"
Then proceeded with this appeal for the
"old-time religion"
"Be Christian men, Christians. Men
will respect you, women will admire
you, children will love you and God will
crown you with glory"

AFTER WORRIES WAS
COCOUPLE WEEDS HERE

When d. Wolf. Jr., of The Dalles,
accompanied by his friend, Eugene Ell
ton, also of the neighboring city, made
application last Thursday night for a
license to wed Miss Zita G. Doran, he
proffered a medical certificate, as re-.
quired by law, signed by a Wasco
county physician. The law requires a
of a resident physician of
the county in which the license is ap.
piled for, and County Clerk Shoemaker
refused to issue the marriage license.
The vain effort of Mr.. Wolf to secure
the marriage license was followed by
an interchange of telephone messages
with County Clerk Fox Of The Dslles,
who was asked to send document from
that county by messenger. Finally Mr..
Elton took late train to The Dalles
and returned here Friday morning with
the troublesome license. An anxious
wedding party, consisting of the pros
pective bride, her friend, Miss Leola S.

meantime at the Hotel Oregon.
