THE NEW SELF-CENTERINC DE LAVAL BOWL
Some of the Points of Superiority Of the
NEW DE LAVAL

The New De Laval bowl de ign and
the new method Of delivering the milk
inoo the discs gives increased capacity
without increasing the weight or size Of
the bowl or increasing It's speed The
incoming whole milk is delivered beyond
the cream wall, and this, in conjunction
with the improved design Of the bow,
makes possible closer sklmming than ever
before. especially under the more diff
cult conditions Of separation. such as
sklmmng a very heavy cream Or separ-
atlng milk below usual temperature
The much lower speed Of the De Laval
than other cream separators lin most
cases from one-half to one-third lessl IN,
sures minimum wear Of gears and much
longer life of the machine
The New De Laval eoncape bottom,
self-centerlng bowl is SO designed and
SO supported by the detached spindle
that it will run true and do perfect
work even after long wear, the import
ance of which every user vii! appreciate.
There are fewer discs IN the New De
Laval bowl, and all discs are unnumber-
ed apd are interchangeable.

|Byram Robbins Re-Affirms
Statement That Bauis Bungled

executive session was to be held.
Members Of the mayors advisory COM
m1ttee who recommended its passage
were quoted in one of the newspapers
shortly thereafter as saying that they
we're informed by the Board of Public
Works, Of which Bavis was, and is a
member, that the purpose of the reso-
luton was merely to give the city
an option to buy the plant, and that
city still had 120 days within which
to determine whether or not it really
wished to buy.

true, and that as matter OF fact the
statutes Of the state provided that after
such a purchase was actually deter

should then have not to exceed 120

Mr.. Olney, its New York representa-
tive, stated that It was too late to dis
cuss that question, as the legal effect
of the city's resolution In connection
with the company's option to purchase
previously extended, was to bind the
city to the purchase, and that the city
had therefore in effect already con-
tracted to buy; and further that the
city could not retreat unless the COM
pany also consented to retreat, and
further that. the company would not
release the city unless the city would
release the Municipal Plant to the
company.
All this is familiar local history. It
was reported as striking the citizens
like a .'bombshelL" Many attorneys,
some of whom were attorneys for the
company and some Of whom were not,
gave it as their opinion at the time
and afterwards, that the city was
bound to purchase. One of the mem
bers of the Public Service Commits
sion gave 1t as his opinion, on the day
following that public discussion, that
the city was bound. The city attorney
denied it, and Mr.. Bavis said it was
Colossal BLUR on the part OF the
company 1t was not afterwards, to
my knowledge, decided by any court
that the city was not legally bound.
The city did not at any time square
ly raise the question in any court In
nv opinion it did not dare raise it. In.
stead it proceeded with its program OF
purchase before the Public Service
commission, and many of its officials

EYES OF WORLD
ON new YORK
CITY ELECTION

NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-New York is
holding its quadrennial mayoralty
election today Fair weather that ush-
cred in the day led TO predictions by
the various campaign managers that
a record breaking vote would be poll
ed Of the 696,S09 voters who regis
tered, it was expected that at least
$4,000 would cast their ballots.
Many close political observers be-
lieve that the result may hinge upon
the vote of soldiers and sailors now
stationed in training camps on this
side and overseas. The soIdier-sailor
voter has been estimated at about
$4,000, and it will be about a month
before it is known how these men
voted.
Bitter Campaign
AT the close of a campaign almost
unparalleled for its bitterness and
many sensational charges and counter
charges, campaign managers of the
four parties issued statements claim
ing victory The Fusion party predict
ed that Mayor John Purroy Mitchell
would be reelected by plurality of at
least $4,000; Tammany Hall claimed
that County Judge John F. Hylan,
democrat, would be elected by 10000
plurality; ex-state senator William NJ.
Bennett. the republican nominee, who
defeated Mayor Mitchell at the prim-
aries, asserted he would get 275.000
votes. and Morris Hillquit. the wealthy
candidate of the sovialist party. was
certain that he would roll 100000
votes.
Mayor Mitchell, In his final word to
the voters, said: To-day we prove our
right to keep the American flag over
City Hall. Hylan shall not tear it
down. Hillquit shall not stain it with
surrender"
Judge Hylan reiterated his charges
that Mayor Mitchells hackers tried to
steal" the primary and charged that
they are planning to make another
attempt in the election booths"
Morris Hillquit, who announced that
he would not buy Liberty bonds,
claimed that the issues were thu
manized city government: the preser-
walton of democratic institutions and
an early, rational and durable world
peace"

among them Mr.. Bavis, sought to con-
vince the citizens that the purchase
was in reality good thing. The mayor
of the city was quoted in one of the
local newspapers shortly after the pub
lie discussion in the Commercial club
rooms. as saying that whether the city
was bound or not the purchase was
good thing anwhow.
] stated in my talk the other even
ing and state now that on a business
matter of such importance to the city,
involving as it did an expenditure of
over S212 900 of the public moneys,
there should have been no conjecture
nor doubt, but the city should first
have been sure both of the facts and
law and certain of the effects of its
acts before proceeding.

To The Editor of the Palladium:
Mr.. Alfred Bayis has crawled forth
In print today and pronounced as
false some of the statements | made
In talk at a Republican meeting last
Friday in reference to the purchase by
the city of the electric plant OF the
Light, Heat and Power company. 1t is
no doubt in strict keeping with the
principles of this gentleman, and the
superior righteousness of the "C1tl-
zens'" ticket that he printed his ar
ticle on election day, when the oppor-
tunity for fair debate had passed. AS
his campaign manager, Will Kelley, so
consistently says, 1T is easy
to pass the lie at the eleventh hour.
All said in my speech stand by
and re affirm without qualification.
It is common knowledge that MI.
Bavis, William A. Bond and others
caused the introduction before Council
of a resolution calling for the pur-
chase of the electric light plant. 1t
was quickly introduced and quickly
passed at an executive session of the
council The public press reported at
the time that council evidently was
unaware of the purpose for which the

each year in the payment of premiums
and $4,000 to be expended in the con-

exhibits.
The bill went through the senate
without a dissenting vote. but ran
up against some opposition in the
assembly, where Assemblyman Rem

successfully all attempts TO remove
the fair to Reno and 10 Elko as well
as TO cut down the appropriation.
Heidtmann of Washoe recently intro
duced an identical bill providing for
the holding of the fair at Reno. and
on final passage of the Fallon bill at
tempted TO amend by inserting the
name Reno in lieu of Fallon. This
was voted down and the Elko dele
cation similarly attempted to substi-
tute Elko for Fallon. This amendment
met a like fate. The final result was
that Fallon received every vote in
the assembly except the delegation of
four from Elko county, who went
down with flags flying for lost cause.
Now that the matter is finally
settled as to the location of the fair
for the ensuing two years il is to
