UNIFORM MILEAGE
 TO GAUGE FUTURE
 TIRE PURCHASING

ITO what extent during 1918 does the tire manufacturer expect a curtail- ment in the sale of t1res," F. c. Mill hoff, general sales manager of the Miller Rubber company of Akron, O., was asked.
 The interviewer was interested to determine what the general trend of thought was among the tire manu- facturers as it related to the motorists welfare. It was only reasonable to suppose that the national spirit of con- servation would be felt in the tire in dustry.
 MT. Millhoff said that in his opinion, there would be quickening in the pro- cess of separating the chaff from the wheat. In other words, more than ever, the motoTist will seek out the tire that will give him the most mileage But over and beyond this, tires that will render uniform mileage.
 The day is here,' says Millhoff when the motorist demands that all l four tires of the same kind, subjected l to the same conditions, should practi- cally wear alike. It is not enough that one tire should give the mileage that l can be reasonably expected of it, but all four should live up to expectations | NIOIt anu lilbIt, dS lilt utCtSSllY Ol | economy is felt just such tires as these will be insisted upon by the average | pOssessor of a car"
 Tires so built are limited in produc- tion. After all, building a tire is most l ly hand work. Consequently, to insure each operation being performed uni formly efficient, picked squads must dc the building. In anything utmost eff ficiency by it's very character is limited to relatively few men. Multiply tn, number of men and you increase thu number of variables.
 Consequently, uniform tires-tire that render uniform mileage cannot b, built where quantity output is tn | dominating ambition. Thus, Mile builds tires uniformly and will not fee the national tendency of frugalit. which unquestionably is constantly ex
 tending it's scope and will surely mak

Russia

We need not yet despair of Russia L tressng as conditions have been they to be improving and there is possibility that the Ukraine and the Cossacks may yet give vitality to the Russian armies in the It may be that what has seemed so dis couraging has been but passing phase the healthy awakening and regeneration of the Russian people. There is precedent in history for this consong belief for to date the revolution in the great white the north has followed with remarkable accuracy the corresponding phases of the French revolution
 In both cases the passing of power with the over- turning of the throne in from the moderates to the dreamers and from them to the extremists And the latter in France a century and a quarter ago represented only small minority of the people, be said today that the Bolshevki represent even smaller proportion of the immense population Is it not reasonable to expect that as it be- comes evident that they cannot carry their radical and impossible promises their power will soon pass away?
 While the Bolshevih have had therefore the op- portuny to do much mischief the nation itself is not one of which the democratic world need despair A considerable latitude in the direction autonomy for the various parts of that great heterogeneous popua tion may be necessary but there is nothing i'm possible in the hope of broad federation when the reactonary and radical elements have exhausted their resources, tried out their mad policies and failed.
 general break up of the nation is not fore shadowed in anything that has transpired The best observers await with confidence the awakening of the Russian peasantsdull ignorant superstitious but certainly not decadent. When it is remembered that until half century they slaves not only in an economical sense but in truly personal way their ability to revolt all is in itself hopeful symptom: and when to this is added their admitted sincerity and eagerness to learn-quaes which will be more strongly demonstrated with their emancipation from the curse of vodka their future may be looked forward 10 with the measure of hopefulness.
 In spite of allied disappointment with the Maxi malist program for possible peace with the common enemy the only course the allies and the United States could logically take Russian affairs was one of tolerance and sympathy It seemed incredible that the crack braned Bolshevki could be lured into betrayal of the world by a pact of peace with the Prussian autocracy
 lt does not now appear that such peace could he effected even if the Maxmalsts should remain in undisturbed power According to the dispatches if does not appear that peace terms with Germany can be agreed upon by the representatives of the Bols

The New Governor

Since there is no higher authority we must accept the mandate of the court seating George W. P Hunt as governor in the place of Thomas E. Campbell
 We embrace this occasion to pay tribute to the latter who in the midst of greater difficulties than had ever before surrounded Arizona executive has distinguished himself by disinterested and patriotic service
 These difficulties have consisted in part of bur dens that have been laid upon the executives of all the in the of the nations preparation for part they have consisted of the uncertainty of the position of Governor Campbell and the governor has thereby been hndered and handicapped in the dis charge of the ordinary duties of his office.
 This was particularly the in the matter of the labor troubles that have arisen within the last year when the governor deprived of the national guard found himself without the physical of enforcing decrees for the preservation of order But through all the governor has preserved equipoise that has won for him the admiration of political opponents.
 That Arizona should suffer from the turmoil into which the governorship contest threw the state inevitable and now that the turmoil is ended have the opportunity to move forward upon even keel.
 It is incumbent upon every Arizonan to tribute to such a movement There is now no time for petty politics and all party politics will be petty in comparison with the riotous world politics into which have been plunged. More than since the founding of the republic it is the duty of all citizens to help rather than to hinder public servants of every degree whoever they may be, and by what party name they may be known
 Interference with the executive of state will be Interference with the plans of the nation in cam paign against a enemy. If the United States fails to do it's full share in the great which it has enlisted the failure will traceable to the ac tivites of politicians big or little.
 The people must get together; they must break down the barriers parties and become one in purpose. These barriers must be broken in every community, in every state if they are to be broken down in the nation

SYMPHONY SALE
 LIN JANUARY 1O

The ticket sale for the Minneapolis symphony orchestra concerts, which take place on afternoon and evening of January 91, opens January 10. Owing to the heavy guarantee made by the local manager, Eugene Redewill, it is necessary to start the sale early. The management is making a special ar rangement so that tickets to this at traction may be given as holiday re- membranes. This is a novelty in itself and should prove to be a valuable sug- gestion to those who have not com pletely solved their gift problems.
 The orchestra comprises S5 artists and two Soloists, besides Oberhoffer, the poet conductor" It is stated that no other large organization penetrat- ing the west has made such a profound impression as the Minneapolis one. Be- sides their symphonic program there will be special patriotic music special ly adapted at this time to the present war conditions, and which the eastern cities have gone wild over, according to press reports. It is stated that the playing of the new arrangements of America" and "The Star -Spangled Banner" are in themselves star fea- lures sufficient to compensate for the price of admission.
 Last February the attraction turned people away at the doors, but this wear arrangements are being made to ac- cOmmodate a larger audience, but even so, there will be many who will lose out in securing tickets this year unless | they procure them early.

And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found aim, bring me word again, that l may come and worship him also.
 When they had heard the king. they departed; and, To, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.
 When they saw the star, they re- joiced with exceeding great joy. And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary, his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures. they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense. and myrrh.
 And being warned of God in dream | that they should not return to Herod, | they departed into their own country another way.

Food Conservation

It is evident from word that out of Wash ngton that the conservation of food is not what it ought to be- that while there has been some regula- tion of dealers the people as a rule not yet strainlng themselves. Many have done so from the beginnings they have observed all of the"-less' days before formal request was made of them to do so and in all respects have compiled with the wishes of the food administration. But the great over whelming majority have not changed their diet to either quality quantity
 The food administration has not yet pronounced the judgment of failure on the effort bring about the necessary economy by appealing to the countrys of patrotism but that it has about to the conclusion that the problem is not to be solved in that way is indicated by theEfreQuent warnings that have been coming out of Washington.
 MT Hoover has made no definite statement to what has been accomplished but it is unfair from what he has said lately that there has been very little if any decrease in the consumption those food stuffs in which was especially desired to economize Certainly that is to be inferred from what he has said regarding the consumption of wheat.
 We have already exported the surplus of our wheat supplies using normal consumption as the basis for ascertainng the surplus If that is it is evident that much more rigorous economy than has far been practced, assuming that any economy whatever has been practced will be necessary if our soldiers and those of our allies are suffer privation
 One has only to reflect upon the inadequacy of shipping to feel that have exported our sur plus without having accumulated one in France or Great Britain Italy in of the countries whose subsistence is part of the military task of this country What have sent supplies probably only little than the needs of the immediate future We shall have export steadily for several months in a much larger quantity than have far ported if our allies are to be supplied.
 It is evident than something more than appeal will have be resorted to if are going to be able to furnish sufficient exports. The people have re- sponded generously and in good spirit to every other appeal but they have not responded to the appeal to put a curb their appetites The stomach of the country has not exactly rebeled against this appeal but it has apparently disregarded it. As matters stand looks as if hurrying toward the day of government-issued food cards

CHRISFMAS-1917

For a moment I pause in the awful whrl Of events as they pass in digging swirl With the black brutish banner of hatred afurl, While frey brands of destruction they hurl
 At helpless despairing humanity. The war-dogs are bowling and growing for food, The groans of their victims are smothered in mud From their wounds flow continuous rivers of blood, Tears gush from the mourners in torrental flood
 For suffering sorroWing humanity We, shielded allies on this side the But dmly can see what the picture must be- Such hellish inferno, satanic spree Against justice and mercy and true liberty
 Against ultimate good and humanity. In this year of Our Lord Christmas draws near Both Christian and skeptic trembling with fear The in dismay, the other with sheer. Are asked for God and His only Son. dear
 Who so loved the world and humanity. Forsooth, the dark picture of death and despair, There's song of Peace and Good WiI7 in the air. The God of fathers the Christ-chd is here, The faint gleams of light from his star now appear
 To weary and wounded humanity There wise men today in many lands Who are joining together in groups and bands. They pledged to each other with loyal hands To fight for freedom justice demands
 For a glorious Peace with Victory
 All for the love of humanity.

The Confederate Reunion.

Although apathetic thus far, Wash

crate Veterans Reunion, scheduled
to be held in this city next month.
promises to liven up considerably
after the enthusiastic meeting at the
Willard Hotel yesterday.
The meeting yesterday was at the
call of the finance committee in or
der to enthuse the people of the city
over the project, which it is believed
will do more toward cementing the
North and South than any other
event in history.
For Washington the reunion
means four-day period of elaborate
ceremonies which are expected to
eclipse anything of the kind ever
held in this city. The Confederate
reunion also means that all the pic
turesque features which were absent
in the inaugural will be included in
the Southerners' celebration.
Such an event has the reunion be-
come in past years that a number oi

"Mitdeuropa. "

1t is primal purpose of German
policy, this grip on a centralized
Berlin-dominated Middle Europe,
reaching from Hamburg to the Per-
sian Gulf; the nucleus-and more
than nucleus-of world empire. To
win this, to bring Vienna, Sofia, Con-
stantinople, Bagdad, and ultimately
Cairo and Calcutta, under their sway
this is the quintessence of pam
Germanism.
Russia, moved by an evanescent,
Slavic idealism, hears her Socialists,
her Council of Workingmen's and
Soldiers Delegates, proclaim the mo
annexations and no compensations"
doctrine; a doctrine which, boiled
down to the concrete, means German
control and conquest of its present
allies. Germany, failing to conquer
her enemies, has none the less sue
ceeded in conquering her friends,
and will maintain permanent domin-
ion over them, unless she is prevent
ed from doing so. Certain elements
in the new, raw Russia do not see
this; their doctrine would leave the
Hapsburg empire as so much meat
for the Prussian NAV, with Bulgaria
and Turkey thrown in for. good
measure.
Perhaps restatement of the war
aims OF the entente would be a good
stroke at the present time. Russia
informally has called for it; the peo-
pie of America would like to know
what purposes they are pursuing in
the great struggle and the great sac
rihces ahead of them. That these
war aims comprise an emphatic
negative to the German aspiration
for a Prussianized Mitteleuropa is
certain.
The German chancellor dare not
state the Kaiser's war aims any more
than he dared to do so last Decem-
Der at the request of President Will
son. He dare not revea. the true
measure of German chicanery to the
world. Perhaps he personally favors
moderate peace, but he is not
strong enough to defy the Junkers,
any more than he is strong enough
to defy the Liberals and the Social
lists. More and more he is reduced
to extremities, to adopting the coun-
sci of desperation, to drugging his
beleaguered people with the vain
hope that the peace they crave is
just around the corner"
