The result Of last Tuesdays cleo
ton again demonstrates that Bear
Lake county Ia safely republican, 90
far as national and state issues are,
concerned. The real test this year
on the point OF partisanship is best
shown on the vote for the long term
senatorship and state treasurer, al
though the fact that Senator BorAhr
was endorsed by the Nonpartisan
league lost him some republican
votes. The same is true regarding
Eagieson, the republican candidate
for treasurer. Their Opponents--
Frank L. Moore and e. L. Parker
were running as straight democrats.
and therefore came nearer receiving
the straight party vote than any 9TH
er men on the ticket.
On the complete returns from every
precinct in the county, except NOu-
nan and Eight Mile. Borah's majority
is 372 and Eagleston's is 463. The
vote OF the two missing precincts viii
add slightly to their majorities. Four
years ago James H. Brady, for U. 8.
senator. carried the county by St6,
while Eagleson's majority was only
216.
On the returns received. Gooding'l
majority ia 46s. This Ia a splendid
showing. considering the effort thai
was made in Nugept's behalf by thG
national, state and local democratic
organizations.
There were iess than aloe votel

WHY WE MUST HAVE GASL1tSS
SUNDAYS

The importance OF gasoline iQ the
conduct Of the war is more and more
visible n Washington every day.
When the allies began their often-
sive on the western front it was on a
comparatively short line, but this has
increased and is now three or four
times greater than when the drive be-
gan five weeks ago.
The trucks that this country has
sent over by the thousands upon
thousands are taking the place of rail-
roads, which the Germans are destroy
ing on their retreat. The allies do
not take time to rebuild the railroads.
They don't have to. But it takes gas
oline to do all this.
The man who saves gasoline on Sun
day is helping to furnish the power to
keep up the western offensive.
The government is not making pub
lie it's gasoline requirements in the
war, but it is known that they have
increased tremendously in the past

DEPRECIATION ON
 OLD DODGE SMALL;
 CUSTOM FEES HIGH

Canadian customs authorities have just paid a three-y year. old motor car which has already seen 12.600 miles of service-the usual compliment of an appraisal at the present market price as a new car. They proposed to enter it in Canada with only the regulation IS per cent discount, and an additional 20 per cent depreciation. just as though it had undergone only a few months of service.
 The number of the car which is a Dodge Brothers, is 653 indicating that it was built late in 1914, less than a month after Dodge Brothers began manufacturing motor cars. Its owner at Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, attempted to drive it into Canada recently. for a prospective sale there. According to customs rulings, depreciation would have been more than 50 per cent for three year-old car. However, after the officials had made an inspection of bearings, the body finish and general appearance, they ruled that it was practically a new car, and based its en- trance valuation on the present retail price. This, it is interesting to note,
 is considerably higher than the price which prevailed when Dodge Brothers car No. 653 was built.
 While the owner of the car was gratified, in one sense, with the cus- toms ruling, he was not in another. For the valuation made the duty so high that prospects of making used car sale in Canada were so remote that he abandoned the thought. How eyer, he had little trouble in making a sale in Michigan.

ARMY TRUCK TRAIN
 PROVES |TS METTLE
 0N 5O0 MILE GRIND

RigOrs of war and of the severest winter that most sections of the United States ever experienced hay ecombined to prove dramatically the transporta- ton efficiency of American made mo- tor cars and trucks. With the rail- roads congested with war freight and frequently blocked by snow, manufac- turers of trucks and automobiles, deal- CTS in them, and the government itself are independent on the ability of the motor vehicles to travel cross country under their own power.
 Despite railroad congestion, freight embargoes and blizzards, the govern ment is getting its army trucks through from factory to seaboard," ]" said C. R. Norton, general sales man. ager of the Packard Motor car con- pany. "The first army train, of thirty Packards, pioneered the way over 5S0 miles of snow filled, ice covered roads between Detroit and an Atlantic port. This run was so successful that the quartermasters department now has six more such trains on the road to the coast, and six more are soon to be made up in Detroit.
 Convinced by the governments test, dealers and private purchasers are as- surfing themselves of prompt delivery and in many cases the only delivery possible-by driving their cars and trucks from Detroit to distributing points. In the past fortnight, the Packard Motor Car company of Balti- more has driven "A Packard trucks and eight twin -sixes overland from Detroit to Baltimore; the Packard Motor Car company of Pittsburg has taken deliv- cry of six trucks and eight passenger cars in this manner. and Detroit to Cleveland is getting to be usual run

GOODYEAR TIRE EMPLOYES BECOME

stock. The amount subscribed by em- ployes at Akron and the various branches throughout the country, reached in excess of $500, ,000.00
 In the past the company has dis posed of its stock to employest on the basis of five-year contracts, simply setting aside the stock in the bene- ficiary's name, permitting dividends, both cash and stock. to accumulate to the end of the period, when settlement is made. The effect was that the en- ploye really purchased the stock at par, though the payments automatically took care of themselves.
 However, in this instance the offer applied to all employees irrespective of their terms of service. It was an op- portunity for every employe to become a part owner and sharer ill the profits of the company.
 A broad and comprehensive plan was worked out by which all en- ployes might acquire the stock on the installment payment plan. Payment is made by deduction from salary of the subscriber at the rate of four dol lars per month for each share of S100. No person was allowed to purchase
 
 plan although many indicated a de- sire to obtain more than that amount.
 Interest at six per cent is charged against deferred payments and divi- dends credited quarterly at the rate of eight per cent. After the stock has been paid for it can be sold, but to induce each shareholder to hold on to his stock, the company will make a cash payment equal to S3 per share every year for five years, beginning March 1. 1919.
 The plan of making stockholders of it's employees has been a great stimulus to loyalty and intelligent service. Workmen, realizing they are stock holders, render a different quality of service than otherwise. Without doubt this has been the basis of the famous Goodyear spirit" of aggressive organ ization. known from coast to coast

Novel Plan of G. M. c. Truck Delivery Now Under Ad- visement By Factory
 Heads; Owners Satisfied

Another efficiency service and show 'em how its done" campaign is being waged fast and furious in this city in the interests of the new G. A1 C. truck and rightly so for it's performance under the most adverse conditions, on undesirable Arizona roads, was most commendable
 Cal Messner has with him for a week or so MT. Pierre Schon, district sales manager for Arizona, New Mex ico Texas and Louisiana, for the Gen. eral Motors Truck company of Pon- tiac, Michigan, and Charles Thompson, new factory service man of the same concern. Both are here in the inter- asts of proving the merits of the G. M. c. and to this end called nearly every truck owner in the district to proffer any assistance that might be needed. In every case the owner stated that he had no trouble nor expected any. and that the work of the truck was un- believable under the hardest strain.
 A plan now under consideration by the Michigan concern was disclosed by MT. Schon yesterday, when he told of the proposal to make truck deliver ies. by rail, under their own power.
 It would be possible, MT. Schon said to run train of 10 of the larger trucks specially equipped with Hanged wheels and each to carry one of the smaller types. the entire train to be pulled by one truck on level ground. At speed of from twenty-five to thirty miles ar hour deliveries could be made just as quickly as by steam transportation. IT addition Schon points out, freight cal space is hereby saved, for the ordin. ary car has capacity of 500O0 pounds while with a load of trucks can only hold approximately 15,000 pounds.
 Large government orders are being filled by the G. M. C. at the presen time, and it is expected a full ,an- nouncement of this type of work vii be announced later.

RUDOLPH BELIEVES
 FORD ID DOMINATE
 MAR|COPA COUNTY

Arizonas registration of automo- piles, not including trucks, gives an interesting insight as to the popular ity of "The Universal Car" There have been 5699 Ford cars registered to February 1st out of a total of lS19S, or Fords represent A per cent of the total registration.
 In our own county 5115 cars other than trucks have been registered, of which 2l0S or 41 per cent are Fords.
 Ed Rudolph believes the only reason he did not sell Fords to the other 39 per cent of automobile owners in Maricopa county was because during 1918 he could not make a better delivery than three or four months. However, deliveries are now consider ably improved and he believes .le ought to sell at least 90 per cent of all the cars purchased in Maricopa county during 1918. He says you cannot account for the contrariness of some people. so he allows 10 per cent for the man who will not listen to reason.

good roads are a vital question to
 every man, woman and child in the country. What good roads and road improvements means to the automo- bile man or the driver of any automo- bile can best be ascertained from his cost accounts. An average automo- bile or truck will give twice to three times the service on paved roads at lower cost than the same machine operating on dirt roads. At the same time to the farmer or rancher trans porting his products to the market with a team: from two to three times the quantity of any given product can be hauled over a paved road at the same expense and in the same time as can be transported over the unimproved road. Let us have good roads by all means; too much cannot be said in favor of good roads, while nothing can be said in favor of the unimproved

It is with a great deal of pleasure, said the head of local agency re- gently, that the automobile men at large read of MT. Hoovers attitude concerning good roads. According to MT. Hoover, every step taken in the improvement of the roads of this coun- try is step nearer Berlin-the ques- tion of transportation of all kinds of food and material is far more serious today than the raising of food pro- ducts: hence any thing done to facili- tate the transportation problem is surely step forward in preparedness.
 Good roads mean lower cost per mile in the transportation of all farm pro- ducts; this lower cost of transporta- tion means lower prices. Therefore,

For years the Goodyear Tire & Rub- Der company of Akron, Ohio, has be- lieved in making stockholders of such of it's employees as have shown special ability and rendered highly efficient service. The result ofthis policy has been so satisfactory that the company recently offered to all it's employees a stock purchasing opportunity carrying one of the most attractive investments that any large body of employees have ever had placed before them.
