CHAUFFEUR FLIES :.

San Francisco, Sept, ga reward

EDITORIAL COMMENT.

Governor Cox and his running mate
Franklin ID. Roosevelt, are working
themselves up to impassioned heights
of oratory upon the subject OF how
the predatory Wall Street interests
are preparing to buy the presiden-
,cy for the Republican party and upset
the federal reserve bank act. In
view of this contention the New York
Evening Posts announcement OF cor
dial support of the Democratic tick
ct must be more than an embarrass-
ment to Governor Cox. The Post is
owned by Thomas W. Lamont, of the
firm of ]. p. Morgan and Company.
J.P Morgan and Company are pro-
baby the chief of our international
bankers. They favor Cox because
Cox favors the Wilson league, and
the Wilson league is an international
proposition which promises profit to
them. If j. P. Morgan and Company
are not representative of Wall Street,
we know of no firm which is. And

GOVERNOR cox is
ROUTED WRONG WAY

Governor Cox will not help his case
any in Indiana by questioning the
yeracity OF VIII II. Hays, Republican
national chairman. The Voters of
this state have confidence in Mr..
Hays. They know him personally ana
at close range. They have observed
Governor Cox at distance. even II
it is a short distance, and If called
on to accept the word of one or the
other they very naturally will believe
the mah they know to be dependable
rather than he one whom they have

The dependable Tractor that
Burns Kerosene Completely

The 1925 H. P.Waterloo Boy
Tractor is just the kind of ma
chine that we like to put into the
hands of our customers.
There is nothing experimental about it.
It's deperldability has been fully proved in
years of service on the farm. Every time we
sell one, we feel the assurance that the owner is
going to get fully satisfactory service from it.
And that means great deal I'd the future of our
business.
Right along with its dependability for
ng-continued good work, there. is an
other big feature that you will appreciate every
day you use the Waterloo Boy.
1t burns kerosene completely. It's pat
ented kerosene manifold-one that you
can get on no other tractor-conyerts all of the
priced fuel into highly -combustible gas,
enabling the engine to get full power from every
drop.
The Hartford republican. (Hartford, Ky.) 18??-1926, 1920-09-10

That saves engine trouble-no kerosene
gets into the 1ubricating OIL There is no
carbonizing of cylinders or fouling of spark
plugs.
And it saves many dollars in fuel cost
every year of its operation.
You are sure to like all of the Waterloo
Boys other features. 1t is simply made;
easy to keep in good running order. The work.
ing parts, fully protected from dust, are placed
where you can easily get at them, whenever
necessary, through inspection plates and de-
tachabe castings. The engine, perfectly bal
anced and mounted on sole foundation, runs
without vibration-no racking Of mechanism
Gears are steel-cut and case -hardened-
practically everlasting. 1t is equipped with
Hyatt Roller Bearings, famous throughout the
world for conserving full power. All bearing
points and gears are kept constantly in bath
of oil by positive system of fabrication.

AS early as the sixteenth century
the Appalachian Mountains were
known to contain deposits of gold,
according to the United States Geo
logical Survey, Department of the In
terror. When the Spanish explorers
came to southeastern North America
the Indians showed them some rich
nuggets apd ornaments of gold that
had been mined in the Southern APP
palachian region. In the seventeenth
century the Spaniards mined for gold
in Georgia. During the eighteenth
century very little gold mining was
done anywhere in the Appaiachians,
although some writer's have supposed
that gold was found in North Carroll
ma before the Revolutionary war.
Just at the close of the eighteenth
century placer gold was discovered
in Cabarrus County,'N c.. and con-
siderable prospecting was done in
hat region. The output Of gold from
South Carolina in 1929 was reported
to be worth $500. sFrom that time
until the Civil War gold mining was
q considerable industry in the South
ern Appalachians. and although the
rich fields of California lured many
miners from these lower grade east
ern deposits, the fever in California
really stimulated gold mining in the
East. During the Civil War and for
several years after 1t little gold was
mined in this region, but in the sew
entities, eighties, and nineties gold
mining there was more active. The
gold-mining industry in the central
Carolinas is not how flourishing. be-
cause the supply of free-milling ore is
decreasing and because the gold can
not be extracted from the lower
grade sulphide ore at profit, Gold
will probably be mined in the 'Appala-
chan region, however, for many
years.

Much has been said and done to

much credit is due to the men who
are at the head Of them.
j was reading an article In the
EVENING NEWS the other day
where a person carrying a baby was
almost" injured because the driver
of one OF the buses started the bus
with q jerk, and I do not blame the
person for complaining, but it seems
funny to me that nc sue complaints
are heard about the trains and troll.
legs; surely we all hav experienced
the quick stops and starts the troll
leys and trains make; now why pick
on the buBses2
II the bus driver was careless or
incompetent why didn't the person
demand his badge number and turn
him in to the bus inspectors who
nav bee put in office just to TAKE
care of such things? That's what
the bus committee and bus inspectors
are for, and, believe me, IL there are
gentlemen and very we'll able to see
that the offense Is not repeated.
I am a bus driver myself and have
been In the game from the start and
1t sure would do my heart good to
see q piece in the EVENING NEWS
giving us a boost instead Of a knock.
1t Is my opinion that 1t Is entirely
up to each and every person who
rides In the buses to see that they
get courteous and careful service,
and / am equally sure that the bus
drivers themselves are anxious to
see that they get 1t.
If the bus driver is careless he is
