The testing of motor cars, like the
building of motor cars, has undergone
marked advancement during the last
few years. New standards have been
created and new mechanical testing
devices have been perfected to keep
pace with the development of the auto
mobile itself.
1t remained for the WHY'S Over
land Company, to supply the supreme
test to it's latest model, Overland A
which has just been announced. This
test, it is believed, has established
new standards of testing and refine
ment of details to make car prac-
tically perfect mechanically before it
goes to an owner.
The history of the development,
building and testing Of Overland a,
which introduces the new three point
spring suspension, covers a period of

1t is mistake to assume that q
remedy can be found for all the ills
of mankind. Certain fundamental
truths of government have been evol-
we'd by experience and are fixed as
the foundations of our institutions.
To them we must adhere, and work
ing upon that basis, in healthy ev-
olution, and not by revolution, we
can adopt our laws and administra-
ton to the needs of the people as
conditions develop; cleaving to the
ancient principles of the Constitution.
By SO doing we shall preserve for
ourselves and our posterity that hap
Ply state which we have attained
among the nations of the EARTH
stand upon these principles, and
shall make an active campaign for the
nomination by the Republican Party
for the office Of President Of the
United States in order to present
these issues to the people, and to at
tempt, if successful, to assist in re-
establishing these principles in QUO
domestic and foreign policy
Respectfully,

United States. That means nothing
less than revolution and civil war.
The executive, legislative and judi
cial branches of the government are
united to maintain the majesty OF
the law and the authority of sover-
eign nation.
For the first time in its history the
United States government is invok-
ing the writ of injunction to prevent
a portion of it's citizens from DISC
beying the law, from denying the au-
thority of those who have sworn to
execute the law and from interfering
with the rights of the public. The
issue is not the right to strike but
the right to work-not the constrtu-
tional right to cease laboring, which
is not at issue, but the constitutional
right of the public to protect those
who are willing to labor, thus avert
ing want and suffering. The right
to strike carries with it the right to
work, and that right the strong arm
OF the government proposes to pro-
tect at all hazards.
The strike is war against the law,
and. therefore, war against the ma
ton. There can be but one course
to pursue-and but one result to fol-
low. Unless the law is upheld and
the government sustained in the ex-
ecution of the law there is no gov
eminent.
1t avails nothing for Mr.. Samuel
Gompers to denounce the injunction.
It is like the beating of the wind for
Mr.. John L. Lewis to denounce the
government as violating the constl-
tutional rights of citizens" for pro-
posing to enjoin and, if necessary, to
use force. Both these gentlemen
must realize that ninety-nine and one
half million Americans do not propose
to be dictated to by less than half
million. Laws on the statute books
must be obeyed and officers of the
government sworn to execute the laws
must employ every agency in the per-
Torrance of their duty.

BACK TO THE FARM

young man, stick on the farm.
There is nothing in the west but boil
sheviks and nothing east but labor
conferences. Buy monograph and
phord, pat in a telephone, get lot
of machinery to do the work, let the
cider harden by the insistent process
of nature, and thus live, not caring
whether Mr. Gompers or Mr.. Gary
has the world by the tail"
The quotation is not from Napo-
leon Hills Golden Rule" from S. E.
Cox's Truth" from Walter Hilton's
majority" or from Snider's "Feder-
ationalist." It is from The Chicago
Tribune, admitted in it's own columns
to be "The Worlds Greatest News
paper"
IT is new epoch when Horace
Greely's advice is forgotten It
would seem that there is a wide dis
position to return to old principles of
honesty and decency, manufactured
by association and organization.

Radicalism must be conquered by
the new awakened spirit of patrio-
tism, of Americans for America.
Business must ride straight or it
rides for fall 1t must meet the
issues that confront it face to face or
be exterminated. There seems to be
no middle grounl
There is nothing in the peace treaty
to prevent the Hun from undermining
the industrial strength of this nation.
"Closed shop" may mean a "closed
country"
Economic unrestl No. 1t is the
unrest of propagandists, of alien en-
emies, of human snakes, that are
crawling and working their way into
the very citadels of American pros
perity.
How would it be to prevent aliens
from becoming members of labor
unions?

A Travelling Mans Experience
You may learn something from the
following by w. Fl. Ireland, travel
ing salesman of Louisville, KY. "In
the summer of 1888 l had a severe

the hotel porter fifty cents and told
him to buy me bottle of Chamber
lain's Collie and Diarrhoea Aemedy
and to take no substitute. | took a
double dose Of it according to the di-
rections and went to sleep. At FIVE

COME ON HOME!

e Maybe Senator Williams is right
and does not know it. Irishman
(meaning Americans of that blood
have no place in the democratic party.
From the time of President Grant,
who recognized ability and loyalty
and was proud to reward both, the
place of the 'Irishman" has been in
the republican party, though not often
he knew it.

FATHER AND SON
By Edgar A. Guest.

By Edgar A. Guest.
Be more than his dad,
Be a chum to the lad,
Be part of his life
Every hour of the day
Find time to talk with him,
Take time to walk with him,
Share in his studies
And share in his play;
Take him to places,
To ball games and races,
Teach him the things
That you want him to know,
Don't live apart from him,
Don't keep your heart from him,
Be his best comrade,
He's needing you so.
Never neglect him
Though young, still respect him,
Hear his opinions
With patience and pride.
Show him his error,
But be not a terror.
Grim visaged and fearful,
When he's at your side.
Know what his thoughts are,
Know what his sports are,
Know all his playmates,
It's easy to learn to,
Be such a father,
That when troubles gather,
You'll be the first one
For counsel he'll turn to.
You can inspire him
With courage, and fire him
Hot with ambition
For needs that are good
He'll not betray you
Nor lily repay you.
If you have taught him
The things that you should
Father and son
Must in al things be one
Partners in trouble
And comrades in Joy.
More than a dad
Was the best pal you had;
Be such a chum
AS you knew to your boy.
