FOR THE BETTERMEN T
 OF THE TERRITORY
{ Vald ez Miner

Des )ite the presence of James Wickersham in Washing 9 ton the past session of congl ess and his unceasing attempts to nulllfy the work of Charles A. Sulzer, we believe that every A Iaskan, regardless of party aIfil lation, who has kept abreast of the work done by MT Sulzer acknowledge that his G4C1ts have been for the betternlert of the Territory.
 We believe that the most ard ent supporter of Mir WickerSham will acknowledge that Mr Sulzer has been the best delegate Alas kn has had for a decade or more
 While the vote ef the Commit e on ElC ctiOnS was based ul on a trivial technicality, and one that would require legal acuntn to differen tiat9 from tie 1;cts of the case l5 is un 1eniable that a white soldier sh ould have more right to have lis vote counted than an Alent who has not sev- cred his tribal relations.
 Trickery and deceit may pre- vail for a few months but the tremendous majority piled up by MT Sulzer in the receut pri mary shows that his true worth is realized by his Constituents.

ROOM FOR OPFIMISIS
 NOT PES SSIMISTS

It is true that the days will soon be growing short and We shall have two winters and {, summer ahead of us.
 1t is true, too, that our young men are leaving in great num- bers.
 That the construction camp on the Nizina River is Gisbanded, & the Lower Camp at the Mother Lode is discontinued on the ground of unnecessary expense
 Because of these things, some people are dejected and down cast
 But they forget that the pay rolls at the mines are bigger than ever, that improvements are still going on
 Contracts have been let for building the shelter cabins on the Shushanna trail, and so al together, there is just as much here as ever.
 Even if our young men have left, they have gone for our sake, and there is lots of life in the older ones who are still here.
 There are also plenty of pat. riotic and ambitious women wEo will replace abr lCcitC men if need be.

The Tri- State Truck and Tire com- pany has taken over the exclusive agency for the Firestone line of tires in MariCopa county. The Firestone tire is well known in the territory. hay ing proved it's merits under every cir cumstance, but the Tri- State company presents herewith for the benefit of those not fully familiar with the Fire stone product authentic material fur nished and endorsed by the Firestone factory:
 Why Firestone Truck Tires Lead.
 There are many reasons why moro trucks are operating on Firestone tires than on other tires, but perhaps We can name. as a basic reason, the fact that they are built by the leading spe- clalists of the industry.
 Every man with the Firestone organ ization has large measure of that - keen sense of personal responsibility which Mir. Firestone himself feels re- earding every tire that bears that name.
 Fifteen years of consistent and per sistent endeavor toward the highest standards of quality and service has brought to the Firestone organization the reward of being America's largest exclusive tire and rim makers
 The public has recognized the su- perior engineering genius of these spe- cialists, the superior materials they

Firestone's output of solid tires is equal to the combined output of all other tire factories. official figures show. 4 full line of Firestones will be handled by the new company, includ ing all sizes in cord and fabric con struction, as well as the solid tires.
 The vulcanizing department will be modern in every way, in charge of man with IA years experience in vul canizing. This department will be able to do sectional and retreading. The dry cured method will be used, as against the kettle cure method of re treading which is now becoming anti quated and not used any more by the progressive establishments.
 F. C. Fickinger is here from the Los Angeles branch of the factory to see the new company started off. I. H. Irwin, Arizona representative for the Firestone factory, is also here giving his personal attention to the new com pany in establishing the Firestone part of the business.
 Lawrence LeTulle. representative of the Kelly Springfield factory will make headquarters in Phoenix and assist in the organization of the territory for the Fri State company.
 When the company opens for busi- ness Monday there will be in stock at the North Central avenue establish ment s20000 in Kelly Springfield parts.
 | The company will specialize in service on trucks and tires.
 A. Cubillas. Jr., secretary treasurer of the Pacific Petroleum Products company and of the Tri-S State com | pany, will have executive charge of the offices in Phoenix. He formerly 1 had charge of the Pacific Petroleum 1 Products company's business at Casa | Grande. His experience in the busi-
 ness extends extensively over Arizona
 and Old Mexico. He is the son of the

gN CONFORMITY with the govern

EN CONFORMITY with the govern 3 ments desire that truck transporta
 ton be encouraged. thus relieving the railroads the Tri- State Truck 6s Tire company. a subsidiary company ot the Pacific Petroleum Products com uauy. was organized last week and win begin business Monday at 306 North Central avenue. The company will handle the Kelly Springfield trucks and the Firestone line of tires and will have a service department with a com rlete vnlcanizing equipment second to none ir the southwest.
 The entrance of the Pacific Petro- leum Products company into this field through it's subsidiary marks a distinct departure in motor truck distribution. this company being a consolidation of several oil interests on the coast and the Republic of Mexico. l.. A. Mar tinez is president of the company and also head of the Pacific Navigation company. the ships of which are now in the government service. MT. Mar tinez is also vice president of the Son ora Bank and Trust company of No sales and has extensive cotton and cat tle interests in Arizona and Mexico.
 This company realizing that there was c us 'Bppi OlullN lp tllNti tllt lllp- tor truck business and the tire business organized the Fri State Truck X Tire company which will handle the Kelly Springfield trucks in a territory com prising Arizona. New Mexico, West Texas, Sonora. Chihuahua, Snaloa and Lower California, with headquarters in Phoenix.
 The company will have the largest stocks of trucks in the territory cov- cred. Eighteen carloads of trucks are now on hand and 14 carloads are en route from the factory.
 The Kelly Springfield is a new truck in this field but a truck well known elsewhere and is used by the govern ment, being the standard truck in the Canal zone and used extensively by the Canadian government. This line of trucks was chosen by the Fri State company after careful consideration.

 The firestone quality of rubber. the FirestoDe quality of fabric, the Fire stone good measure of all materials and the F'irestone skill and care in building have reduced tire trouble to the vanishing point and insured a mileage service lower in cost than has ever been expected from pneumatic equipment.
 These tires on Firestone quick de- ing of very careful attention by users of light trucks in many fields. Let the Firestone man analyze your case and compare notes with you on the showings made by this equipment in similar businesses.
 For high speed commercial cars and delivery wagons and the lighter forms of motor driven fire apparatus this equipment means real efficiency
 When puncture or blowout does ne- cur to FiIestone tires il is an easy matter to loosen the clamps that hold the Firestone rim on the wheel, re- move the injured tire, rim and all sub stitute a spare tire already inflated. It takes about five minutes to irake the change, and there is no hard work or pumping up.
 For Light Trucks
 Operators of the lighter class. Of trucks should give attention to 'the Firestone Clircher Cushion when de ciding. on equipment
 This tire has proved efficient in its particular field from the vital stand : point of tire economy, truck protection and speed.
 The Firestone Clincher Cushion tire is interchangeable with pneumatic tires cn regular clincher rims, and is especially adapted for light trucks ard

V. c. Condron, vice president and general manager of the Pacific Pc troleum Products company, will be the executive head of the subsidiary com pany, with headquarters in Phoenix. He was formerly with the Standard Oil company, Il years in all, seven of which were passed in Mexico and Arizona.
 The company selected quarters at 306 North Central avenue, considered among the best show rooms in the city. In this show room will be dis played trucks on the north side and on the south side will be the tire and ac- cessory sales department. At 8 West Van Buren street. connecting at the rear and side with the main sales rooms fronting on North Central ave- nue. will be the service station.
 This service station will be replete with vulcanizing facilities and a tire press of 200 tons pressure for putting on solid tires on trucks. It will be the largest press of it's kind in the state.
 Ed F. Shay, well known in Phoenix will have charge of the truck busi- ness for the company. For two years Mr. Shay had charge of the trucks tralers and tractors for Rabbit Brothers.
 Ed r. Shay has been in the motor truck business for eight years. A great | deal of this time he was with the Pierce Arrow and he thoroughly un- derstands every angle of motor truck transportation. AS factory service man he knows the mechanical end c. the business. He was associated with | Pierce Arrow in San Francisco in ar executive capacity and thoroughly un- | derstands what the motor truck user wants and knows that service is the only thing that makes satisfied cus- 1 toner.

work with and the higher standards of workmanship they demand in all de- tails.
 Starting with a study of each type and size of truck as produced, and analysing every condition of service each may meet, Firestone builders are prepared for the personal or individual requirement of every opeator.
 Every classification of service is thus sharply drawn at the Firestone fac tory.
 The engineers create the design to fit the work.
 The chemists evolve the compound to fit the work.
 The specialists in building see that every step in manufacture is an accur- ate development toward the particular service to be met
 Having become recognized as the creators of the right tire equipment for every purpose we are rewarded with the earliest information regard ing every new developmnt in the truck building industry.
 The result is a thoroughly tested, proven, practical F'irestone outfit for every occasion as soon as the public feels the need
 Non Skid Pneumatic Tires and De-
 mountable Rims
 The Firestone non skid pneumatics are being adopted more and more by truck users who have heretofore oper- ated on solid tires.
 The extra sturdiness of Firestcne pneumatic construction, the extra toughness of Firestone tread, enable these tires to give a length of service and quality of service that effects big economies for users of rapid going, small capacity motor trucks Users of this class of trucks have long appre- ciated the big advantage that penu- matic equipment means in the way of speed and reduced upkeep on the truck itself. But the ordinary pneumatic has not been secure enough against pune lures. blowouts and the like to prove

has befallen this Irish east-coast city
in thirty years through the loss OF
seventy of its men at sea. The victims
were in two steamers which left an
