CHApTER XXyIII.


When Sullivan died he left just his
sister, as a blood to mourn his
death, but he left an adopted son, a
little fellow whose heart was broken
when the big man who had befriended
him suddenly lay down and went away
one afternoon.
Sullivan had been married twice, the
first time to Miss Annie Bates of Cen
treville, r. l., in 1882. They lived to-
gethei only eighteen months and then
separated. Sullivan obtaining a divorce
on the ground of desertion in 1908.
The second wife was Miss Kate Har-
kins, boyhood sweetheart, who became
Mrs Sullivan after the fighter had re-
tired from the ring. They were married
in Boston Feb. 7, 1910. She preceded
him ia death. She would have married
Sullivan when the former was young
man, she had been known to say, if
she could have persuaded him TO aban-
don his determination to become fight
er
And this is the story Of John L. Sui
liyau- the man who made fighting a
clean game in America, and who lifted
the game from the brutal days of pick
led, barred fists, to a scientific life in
six to eight-ounce gloves, and chance
for q man to rest after fighting three
minutes. The Marquis of Queensbury

Hon. w. v. Fuller, of this city, who
at the last session of the Oregon legis'
lature represented Polk and Lincoln
counties comes out this week with an
announcement that he is candidate
for the office of representative from
Polk county. The office was held at
,he last session by Captain Conrad
Stafrin Of this city, who is now with
the Oregon troops somewhere in France
Mr.. Miller was one of the best and
most efficient representatives. Polk and
Lincoln have ever had and was always
on the lockout for the interests of the
two counties. He is one of Dallas
most progressive and public spirited
citizens, always ready to drop his own
business affairs and attend to some
thing FOR the betterment of the public.
Besides being candidate for the
legislature he has several other irons in
the fire, being president of the Dallas
Commercial club, member of the execu-
tive committee of the FOLK county
Fair board, secretary and supervising
warden of the Polk county forest fire
association, director of the Lincoln
county fair patrol association, chairman
of the Polk county defense league, is
on one committee for the Third Lib
erty loan, on another committee selling
war savings stamps, one of the hackers
of the Red Cross and conducts a drug
store. SO far Mr.. Miller is the only
aspirant for the office in the county.

High Prices Follow
Says Chalmers Executive

America demands the genuine old
fashEoneda high pHced peace Not
made in Germany And that means
there is no short cut to victory.
If in needing these demands, the
government continues to insist on a
stacking of manufacture, the automo-
bile industry must respond. But such
/ a drastic order Immediately increases
our overhead expenses and raise in
price is inevitable.
1t should be made clear that such a
raise is no arbitrary acTlon on the part
OF the manufacturers. The pubic
should understand that such a moYe is
but the natural sequence of prevailing
conditions.
Monsy and Materials More Plentiful
than Men
The government at Washington has
plenty of money; raw materials are
abundant-but labor is at a premium
There has been drainage on man pow
er tie world over, and there is a SER
ious shortage Of workin9man power in
the United States
The great Maxwell plants could
readily maintain normal production
and at the same time turn out tract
ors for the government. The highly eff
fieient Chalmers factory could easily
keep on at maximum production and
still manufacture vast storehouses OK
munitions for Uncle Sam.
Both of these things could be ac-
eomplished perhaps without effecting
the supply Of money or materials-out
not so with men. 1t is manpower that
the government seeks to conserve.
Curtailment Means Rush to Buy at
Present Low Prices
Motor car production at anything
less than maximum quantity must force
prices upwards. Therefore q lessenmg
of production is the most compelling
factor which automobile builders have
to confront this year.
Slaekening of output means that
1918 quality must sell at the quantity
prices Of 1915 or maybe even as hgh
as 1912 In other words the manuiac-
turer must 20 back to the period when
less cars were built and higher prices
prevailed.
To this penalty Tor curtailment'
must be added, the present day scarcl-
tv and price Of materials; and the IN
adequate supply of labor. For these
reasons, as a part cf the proplelh VI
victory, the automobile industry may
have TO accept suck orders with all the
attending problems Of decreased pro
duction and increased price.
Automobile Builders Have No Fears
A year ago few would have behev-
ed that the peace loving industrious
American democracy would or could
adapt itself to the rigors and saeri-
fees of war. But the spirit and ac-
eomplishments Of America at war, will
90 down as one Of the sensations OF
the TwentietA century
What America has done its third
greatest industry has done, and wall
continue to accomplish in a proportion
ate degree. The men that have stood
behind the automobile industry in the
face of panics, financial flurries and
periods Of depression, are not the men
TO lay down today when business and
victory need them most.
There may be a scarcity. but there
is no scare, among the leaders. The
industry may mark time, but it Will
never halt.
Sales during 1918 attained new high
records. There will be two and perhaps
three demands for every car on the
