eral Assembly to submit to Missouri
voters next fall the question, Shall
there be a constitutional conventionf"
II the voters give majority ;avoring
such submission, the question itsell
will then be decided at a special elec

amendment also provides for the bi.
partisan election Of delegates to the
constitutional convention.
To bring about the constitutional
convention, which has been agitated
thru the state for nearly ten years, the
first step necessary is TO get signsrs on
the initiative petition. County Superin-

The Republican Convention

Last week the Redublicans met at
Kansas City to select delegates to the
Chicago Convention. Not having any
boss to direct their action and without
cut and dried program they found
more work than their opponents had at
Joplin. The chief contest was over
the seating Of contesting delegates
from part Of Kansas City. The so
called regulars were finally recognized,
The platform stands squarly for the
enforcement Of the dry law, there is no
lodging on this question. It reafirms
devotion to the time honored principles
that have made the Republican party
the greatest constructive force in the
nation since the adoption Of the Con-
stitution. 1t condemns the autocracy
Of Wilson as follows;
We condemn the policy Of govern
ment which has grown up under the
present administration tending toward
an autocracy greater than that which
exists in any European nation and favor
return 10 the principles and policies
Of government as organized by our
foreiathers when they framed and adop-
ted our national constitution, the great
est document ever conceived or adop-
tsd."
1t further condemns the autocratic
attempt Of Mr.. Wilson to betra7 our lib.
erty under the specious plea Of a
League Of Nations,
The stand OF Senator Senator Spen.
Ger was endorsed as we'll as that Of the
various Republican congressman.
There was not the customary bitter.
ness towards the opposing party as
whole that often characterizes political
platforms. This Is proper. 1t is alto
Gether probable that thousands Of Dem.
ocrats who have retained their indie.
pendcnce Of thought will resent the
demand Of Mr.. Wilson that they cease
10 think and instead take their orders
from him-that, to paraphrase his dis
missal Of Lansing, they shall have
minds that 60 along willingly with
mine" 1t is probable that many
Democrats will feel their sellrespect
insulted by the autocratic orders Of
MIR. Wihon and that they will follow
the more American and patriotic path
pointed out by Mr.. Bryan and Senator
Reed, both Of whom are opposed to
the stand oil the President on the
League The Republican party
has had the patriotism and courage
10 prevent Mr.. Wilson from destroying
our liberty and as the leader oi real
Americanism it claims the support Of
an awakened citizenrY who oppose the
attempt Of the present administration
10 Pick our pockets 10 poison our
minds. The hour Of choice draws

your patriotism and common sense, con-
fdent Of your decision.

strictly Imperial, made for Imperial
Valley people, and the best to be had
in the way of custom built bodies, Vic
toria tops, added features.
Nearly every local dealer has re-
served three spaces in the puliding
and in this manner will be able to
show the '.best with variety" as the
saying goes.
LOTS OF MUSIC
The accessory day, which will, as
the plans now read, be the last day
of the exhibition, promises to outdo
by far anything ever attempted in
this city before. Those in charge have
refused to make any comment. and
therefore the accessories section Will
bear watching.
"Curly" Brumbly is keeping low
these days but from all indications
will be on hand in full blast during the
three days. The results of his months
work, will be heard and seen from all
angles. The music and entertainment
has been left to his judgment and
speaking for him, The Press states
that his end of the show will no doubt
prove to be the most popular with a
CSItdlu ScI, thC SiAAo' ~Ao 10
we'll known "Curly" was always right
there when it came to the weaker CD
sex, and he claims that he will feel
perfectly at home in his new role.
The two orchestras secured for the
show, The Tully Sisters and Kim john
sons Four, will be on hand every
second and fiddle out strains to the
tune of hesitation or fox trot.
Says "Curly": "Your feet will tickle,
then they'll jump, then good by auto
show. The dealers might just as we'll
pack up the little cars and take them
home. For who wants to see Peru

the world today. 1t stands as the
second industry in the United States
surpassed only by steel and a large
percentage of the output of steel is
used in the manufacture of automo-
biles.
The tractor section of the coming
show will be one of interest. A hun
dred-foot lot has been fenced in, in
the rear of the new building, and the
tractor exhibit will be displayed there.
The Cleveland, Holt, Cletrac, Russell,
Fordson and many others will be on
hand, giving the farmers the oppor-
tunity of comparing the different
makes and forming their own opinion
accordingly.
Many of the local dealers have been
called on and asked to give a state
ment in regard to how they stand, in
case the present strike holds out, max
ing it impossible to ship cars into the
valley. With one or two exceptions
everyone was prepared. having Sc
cured their cars weeks in advance.
Many of them are still in San Diego,
but with no trouble can be brought
to the valley and a slight polishing
will be all that will be necessary to
put them in first class condition, ready
for the critical eye of the valley pur-
chasers.
The result of the show will prove
to the valley people that they need
not go to Los Angeles or San Fran
cisco to buy any tailor made" ma
chine, for the extra work done on
the valley cars is done in the valley
by valley dealers. The ideas are
Imperial Valley press., 1920-04-17

one would be lead to believe that each
individual exhibit will be better than
the entire show, that each day will be
better than either of the others and
that the combined show is unapproach-
able. You are right, and it will be
left for your discretion and own per-
sonal whims to decide the question.
"The show to be presented by the
automobile dealers of the Imperial
Valley with the assistance of a few
coast distributors, has never before
had an equal locally and many a day
will pass bfore we are given another
chance to view such wide and elab-
crate affair."" declares Mr.. Jeancon,

Not AS Bad AS First Reported

G.. O. Rye's return home on Thurs
day of last week, together with the
noticeable improvement in the condi-
tion of his health, came as a plea
sant surprise to the family and mis-
many Langdon friends. who had be-
come quite apprehensive in the two
weeks that had elapsed without hav
ing heard from him. Further uneasi-
ness had been experienced by reports
reaching here to the effect that the
trouble Mr.. Rye had been suffering
from was an internal cancer where
as it proved to be an affection of one
of his lungs, bad enough in it's way,
but in nowise 80 serious as had it
been of a cancerous formation. He is
making good headway to returning
health and strength and is getting
back on the job.
