Safety Margins Now 100 pct.


Three years ago Mr.. Bate
started out to double our marg-
ms of safety. They had been SO
per cent--a standard then called
extreme. Now every part has
twice the needed strength.
There are over 440 parts made
of toughened steel. All parts
which get major strain are
built of Chrome-V anadium. The
most important parts are also
oversize.
The result is a lifetime car.
Every common weakness has
has been overcome. Even the
problem of breaking springs
seems to have solved complete
ly. Not one Bate cantilever
spring has ever yet been broken.
And we have used them for two
years now.
See the Extra Values
John w. Bates, the great eff
ficiency engineer, built and
equipped this entire plant. It
now covers 45 acres. Its output
next year will be $4,000 cars.
No other factory in the world
could build a like car at any
where near our cost.
The results show clearly in a
hundred ways-in over-strength,
in added luxury, in extra fea-
lures. They show in these new
cars more than ever before.
Come now and see them.

Continued from Page 1, list Sec.)

Are we going to continue to let
these things go on2 If we are, it is
only a question of time, and very
short time at that, when the civil SER
vice will absolutely break down. We
will be unable to get the work of the
Government transacted Somebody
will have to take over the response
bility and the duty OF consolidating
and shifting and adjusting
There had been an effort going on
during all of my service in the House
to bring about a consolidation. II
was shown, year after year, that the
maintenance of certain custom
houses cost five or six thousand dol
lars a year, and that sometimes they
would collect as much as eighty or
ninety cents in year. Uaughter.)
That matter was notorious. II was
scandalous. 1t was debated before
the Houses; the newspapers called
the attention of the country to it;
but the gentlemen who were interest
ed in those customhouses in various
parts Of the country pooled their for
ccs and retained them. Finally the
consolidation was had and the Gus
tomhouScs were abolished by a sort
of trick. ! mean by that it was done
as it is attempted to be done here, by
giving the President some power; and
the people who gave the President
the power did not understand the
power they were giving him, or they
never would have given it to him.
At any rate, the power was given
to somebody. 1t was given to Pres-
dent Taft, as ! rccollect The GUS
toms divisions were consolidated and
a number of useless offices were alb
olished, and the greatest roar OF
righteous indignation went up from
the various legislative bodies that
this Congress that ever
touched my ears in all my service.
Mr.. President, l venture to say
that we are spending $l4O,000,000 need
lessly this fiscal year. i venture to
say that we are paying out for SER
vices more than $l40,0OO,OOO to people
who are unable to render the service
to the Government for which they
are being paid.
LIFE IN A BUSY OFFICE
SENATOR KNUTE NELSON of
Minnesota is much less an artist in
words than Senator Hughes, but he
gave one completing touch to Senator
Hughes's picture:
have seen them. Perhaps it is
not very gracious in me, approximate
ing old age, to speak of these things,
and yet, after all, it has struck me
as peculiar. | have seen old men and
women helped on the cars and help
ed off the cars going to their offices,
and have gone into those offices
and found them sitting in chairs all
day, reading the newspapers, and
once in while taking little nap.

ONE OFFICE THAT is DIFFERENT
The gloominess of the picture as
generally seen, is undeniable; and it
is sound policy to keep pointing out
the abjectness of the extravaganza
and ineificicncy of the Government.
And yet there is this to be said There

gress was practically in the act of as
sorting .independence. of the President
Mr. Wilson had vetoed the lmm-
grafton Bill. The bill had come back
TO Congress andtit was entirely APP
sparent that his veto was going to be
overridden by the two-thirds vote
which is necessary to pass a measure
over the presidential veto. In spite
of the intention and the ability to
override Linn on a matter as to which
difference of opinion was not impor-
tant Congress instantly showed that
it would be unanimous in doing ex-
actly what the President might ask
within the field of foreign affairs and
preparedness.
A PICTURE
On the floor Of the Senate, Senator
William Hughes of New Jersey talks
forcibly and easily. His speeches
when reproduced are among the few
which make easy reading One day
last month something that came up
in the order of business caused him
to speak informally about inefficcncy
and extravaganza. Portions OF his
speech, somewhat rearranged, give
what is almost an artists picture.
Why, we have no conception, and
the people have no conception, of the
true condition of affairs in the Gov
ernmcnt service to-day, and as it has
been for a number of years. | re-
member being driven over to the
station one day by one of the cab
drivers out here, and ! got to quest
ioning him as to bow he managed to
make living 1t had always been
more or less of mystery to me how
those chaps out i'll the quadrangle ex-
listed from year to year on the small
amount OF business they seemed to
do. He told me that he had a fixed
compensation which came from two
men whom he drove to the Pension
Office every morning. 1t was a dis
reputable looking sort of rig that
he drove, and | could not imagine any
highly paid members of the Pension
Office staff being driven to and from
their work in this sort of an arrange
ment. | questioned him a little, and
l found out that they were not driven
down there because they thought they
could afford to drive to and from
their work; but two of them engaged
this man to drive them down there
because they could not walk from the
house to the carriage and they could
not walk from the carriage to the
Pension Office. Each morning he
reported to their houses and helped
them out and into the carriage, and
he helped them from the carriage to
the Pension Office; and at night the
operation was repeated in the other
direction.
That will give you some sort of an
idea of the way the Governments
work is being performed. Not so
very long ago, in my service in the
other body, the man at the head OF
one of the departments appeared be-
fore one of the committees and tes-
tilted that il the elevators did not run

The Innovation.

The new Mitchells, which have
just arrived, embody the follow
ing innovations:
A new-size Mitchell-called
Mitchell JUNIORS offered to
men who want a 5-passenger
car. So you don't need to pay
for room or power not needed.
Eight latest-style bodies are
brought out, all built in the
Mitchell plant.
The saving made in the new
body plant all goes into added
luxury. Thus "a per cent has
been added to the cost of finish,
unholstering and trimming.
There are 81 extra features,
instead Of 26. These are attrac-
tons which other cars omit.
And now, for the. first time,
Mr.. Bate announces double
strength in every Mitchell part.
He has worked for three years
to attain it.
The Smartest Car
This added luxury makes the
Mitchell the smartest car you'll
see. sxn
Enormous ovens have been
built so the finish coats can be
fixed by heat. The result is a
deep, lustrous finish which keeps
its gloss for years.
Fifty per cent has been added
to the cost of the leather uphol-
stery and of the cushion springs.
This gives you an axtra-grade
leather.
You have never seen a car at

modest price in which every de-
tail is so finished and exquisite.
Savings made in our new body
plant pay for all this added lux
ury. So this is another result
of efficiency.
81 Wanted Extras
In this latest Mitchell there
are 81 features which nearly all
cars omit. No other car includes
more than four of them.
These are things like power
tire pump, reversible headlights,
an engine primer at drivers
hand, an extra-cost carburetor,
ball-bearing steering gear, a
light in the tonneau, etc.
1t will cost $4,O00,0OO on this
years output to add these extras
to the Mitchell. But this cost
is paid by factory savings, due
to Bate efficiency methods.

Ten points were reserved for in l formation contained in the written report where such report was re- quired. The judges have endeavored | to be just in their awards after thorough consideration of the merits or demerits of the products submit ted to them. In the potato contest Frances liar land had the best product, but did not have the required 15 pounds, hence could not receive first prize. The lot receiving second prize were slightly superior to the lot awarded the first, except that the tubers had too many bruises, thereby indicating carelessness in digging. Care on this one point would have won first place.
 In rutabagas, on which the first prize was offered by the Quality Grocery, there were no entries, prob ably due to the unfavorable season and to maggot injury. No awards were made on cauli- flower, as the few heads submitted were rather poor and not enough entered to make competition. The prizes on cauliflower were offered by Goldstein's Emporium

NOTICE

Effective Monday October 29th, the price of NANAIMO SCREENED LUMP COAL will be advanced $1.OO per ton. The price of all other grades will remain the same.
 We regret to state this advance is caused by the fact that it is now impossible to purchase double screened Nanaimo coal at the mine. such as has always been secured in the past. At higher price than ever before we are now obliged to take our choice of coal that is running 40 to 60 per cent. screen ings, or doing without coal at all. Owing to extra expense at our bunkers for screening out lump coal, this advance is necessary, and will continue until such time as we are able to secure Nanaimo Screened Lump again.

SEASON PROVED SLOW

It seems rather unfortunate that the season should have been such a poor one, but. even though the season was so very cold and wet some good products were grown by the school children. It is to be pre- sumed that, had the season been good one or even up to the average some excellent results would have been obtained. The poor season caused many ito drop out hence the competition was not as keen as it should have been. It is to be hoped that the poor season this year will not deter a large number entering next year, should a similar contest be held
 The judging was done on a scale of points, or what is known as the score card method. For instance the score card for radishes and simi- lar root crops was as follows:
