MORSE BAPTISTS THANK

while in this clean looking, prosperous
looking, and progressive city.
Resolved, that we extend to the
city press our high appreciation Of the
full and fair account of our sessions,
and for the valuable and effective
publicity given to proceedings and our
services.
One of the treats enjoyed before the

most interesting account of the North
Dakota Enforcement league since its

by Rev. C. w. Finwall, the assistant
superintendent. Mr.. Finwall left for

MURPRY-PALNER
TAKE ON DOBLE
Line OF CARS

J. w. Murphy. of the firm Murphy
Palmer Motor Co., has just returned
from Minneapolis where he has been
for few days making arrangements
to represent the Doble-Detroit steam
motor car. The territory outlined will
cover the southern portion of North
Dakota and part Of Minnesota. Messrs.
Murphy and Palmer are highly graft
fed over getting this agency as 1t is
one that has been keenly sought in
| every locality.
The first cars are promised for the
latter part of August, this year. These
will be of the larger type Of cars,
which have 135-inch wheelbase and a
| seventy horse power steam motor. Re-
cent patents will permit the car to
make approximately 1000 miles on a
| filling OF water, and from 5000 to TO-
600 miles on a gallon of lubricating
oil.
The engine is a simple valve two
cylinder steam motor, with but eleven
moving parts and the engine connect
ed direct to the rear axle, elimin-
ates the transmission, and the an
noyance Of gearshifting. There are no
clutches to slip and chatter, no spark
control, no noisy valves, no oil pump,
no universal joints, no racing smoky
motors, no magnetic, no frequent stops
for water supply, and no inconven-
fence to passengers due to heat from
motor.
All that is necessary to start is to
press a button and the fire is lighted
in the boiler, and in from forty five to
ninety seconds you have ample steam
from cold water. Open the throttle
and you move away. Speed range Is
from scarcely moving up to 80 miles
per hour (all on high gear.
Kerosene will be used as a fuel and
it is estimated that the car can be
operated for half the cost of gas car
of equal size. Tire expense will be re-
duced by half due to the smooth,
easy pulling power of steam motors.
Vibration will be entirely eliminated.
Owing to the simplicity of the mechan-
ical parts there will be no restrictions
to body lines and the cars lend them
selves gracefully to the various types
of enclosed cars.
The car will be easier to control
even than the electric car, and there
is no trouble in cold weather.
AS soon as consistent plans will be
announced for the production of a low
priced steam car. This price will ap-
proximately that of the lowest priced
motor cars now produced.
The inherent characteristics of the
steam car make possible a lower
manufacturing cost and selling price
than that of any other type of self
propelled vehicle when produced in
like quantities.
The Murphy-Palmer Motor Co. will
keep The Forum readers acquainted
with progress being made at the fac
tory, and will have within few days
photographs and specifications Of the
new car.
