Republicans Gain in Congress.
President Harding will have a re-
publican congress to support his poll
cies in the first two years at least of
his administration. Returns indicate
that the republicans will have in
creased majorities in both houses.
Early returns in the elections for
senators and representatives were
meager from a number of important
states, but the trend of voting in those
states in the presidential and guber-
Material contests indicated the prob
able result as far as the senate is
concerned The two houses in the
next congress will probably stand as
follows:
Senate-Republican So; democrats
43.
House-Republicans, 247; democrats
1856; independents, 2; prohibitionist, /
This would give the republicans a
majority of fifty-nine in the house
The present republican majority in the
senate is two and in the house thirty
nine.
Samuel Shortridge, republican,
California, who supported Senate
Hiram Johnson's irreconcilable oppt
sition to the league of nations, az

Ian, firm friend of the Wilson admir-
istration.
Senator James E. Watson, republic
an, has been reelected from Indiana
defeating Thomas Taggart.
Senator Albert E. Cummins, repul
lican, of Iowa, who fathered the Escl
Cummins railroad transportation bill
has been reelected. Bitter contest
were waged in Indiana and Iowa, an
both states were claimed for senator
by the democrats.
Four Democrats Are Victors.
Two democratic senators, Beckhan
of Kentucky, and Senator John Waltd
Smith, of Maryland, appear to haV
won victories. Other democrats a
parently elected to the senate in clos
states are Senator Charles B. Hende
son, Nevada, and Senator George
Chamberlain, Oregon.
In Illinois, William B. Mckinley, r
publican candidate for the senate, hs

DEMOCRATS ADMIT DEFEAT
Republicans Seem Assured of Majo-

Margin of at Least As in the Lower

By majorities apparently unprece-
denied in American politics, Warren
G. Harding has been elected president
and Calvin Coolidge vice-president.
The addition of women to the cleo
torate accounted for some of this in
crease in Harding's margin over James
M Cox, the democratic candidate.
Roosevelt's margin of 100000 over
Parker in Pennsylvania in 1904 was

New York state went for Harding
by 100000. Pennsylvania gave him
plurality almost as large; Illinois
save him 100000; Ohio, the home state
of both candidates, went for Harding
by 100000. Michigan and Wisconsin
each gave Harding pluralities of 1t
least 100000.
Cox held the solid south, and Ken
lucky and Oklahoma among the border
states, but West Virginia and Missouri
have apparently gone for Harding, as
they went for Roosevelt in 1904 If
Maryland has gone for Harding, too,
the landslide of 1904 has been dupli-

pluralities broke records Maine, which

by several thousand. California, which
in 1916, went for Harding by what
early reports described as landslide

rolled up more than 100000 plurality
for Harding.

RoosTING YOUR TOWN.
A Town Grows by Its Reputation and
Ardent Boosters Help Along.

People who travel a good deal
say that there are good many men
who seem to maks3it3their business
to boom their home towns with all
the. people they talk with on the
way. They get into conversation in
pullman smoking rooms and hotel
Hobbies, and they soon begin to tell
these chance acquaintances about
the beauties of their home town.
They ask what peoples business is.
and then suggest what good chances
for those lines of business could De
found in their communities.
One may laugh at the persistence
these fellows show, but one can't
help admiring them. They may waste
good deal of breath. They may talk
to hundred men before they find
one who would have the least idea
CT changing their residence or NOV
ing to the place they suggest.
At the same time, when people are
uiltu with lhdI opiAAl, Jou uNeih ~
see why some good towns go ahead.
A town that has even a dozen men
travelling around who use spare
moments in publishing abroad the
advantages of that community, is
going to make an impression. Men
who have the determination to push
their towns ahead are going TO sue
coed in doing so.
A town grows by its reputation.
A small town with a lot of active
and ardent boosters, stands a better
chance of growth than large one
which is simply satisfied and whose
people never make any effort TO
build it up. ..1
People of DEBORAH do you want
your home town to grow? Then talk
it up. Speak about 1t when you see
your friends and relatives from other
sections and states. Don't be afraid
10 brag about it little. 1t is worth
it. If you make It a continuous
policy to do this, 1t will bring new
people here, and it will create an
impression that it is a live town OF

 This is not MT. Houses first visit to Phoenix. Perhaps this one was the shortest. but he has been conversant with condition in Arizona TOT some time. MT. House is a aswesterner from the word go and understands the prob lems which have confronted the people of this state in their fight for pros perity
 Tt is our intention to engage in the selling of only one automobile in the state of Arizona. Our house will handle but the one car, as we believe in con centrating on it and giving our GUS somers every service that is possible. By handling only the one high grade machine we are able to better aid and serve our patrons than by dividing our energies.
 We are bringing factory men to Phoenix to take charge of the service department of this section. It is ouI aim to make our customers realize that satisfaction is the one aim and object of our organization, and to this end we are going to establish complete anc competent organization in this state
 Although the firm of House & Meyer Ahas been handling the Cole for les: than a year they have been eminenth successful in distributing their produc on the coast They have placed 35' cars in Southern California since thu eS,-g-f r.f

 Toft who has been sojourning in Phoenix all winter feels kind Of bad at not being able to take part in the great duel this year. He has been of- fcred three mounts thus far and every time he has received an offer it has served to make him just a little more hon1esjck for the smell of castor oil and the other accomPa nying odors peculiar to race track.
 lt is only the fact that business in- terests here are keeping him tied down that prevents loft from packing his little kit bag and starting East. After racing for f2 years and enjoying the thrill which comes only from driving a high powered racing car, one can imagine the strain that Toft IS under when he reads about what his friends are doing in the East.
 t is a safe bet according to Toft that up to the last minute the manage ment of the Indianapolis track will be waiting for him to enter. One other year he was the last man in and in order to get his name on the list he was forced to drive all night through mud and rain. But Toft wont be there this year. He will probably be out at Forest Lawn, or at the America n, which for the present will have to suf- flee in the way of thrills.

HOME AUTO SERVICE
 BECOMING POPULAR

One of the worst car demons that haunt the average car owner is the ever present thought Of depreciation. It is this vital factor about the opera ton of car which determines the length of it's usefulness and it's sub sequent value in the used car market A car depreciates in proportion to the type of service it is subjected to and the amount and kiAf of care that 1t receives during the Effne that ir is used 4 depreciation in automobiles is too frequently increased through neglect or failure 10 detect minor motor ail- ments in their inception.
 To meet the need created by the foregoing conditions, the Home Auto Service company managed by Nick Nichols at Al North Central avenue was inaugurated. Here cars are eX- pertly inspected, adjusted and made mechanically perfect, and al far as hu- manly possible are kept so. The ob- ject of this service being the maiuten- ance of automobiles in perfect operat- ing conditions at all times. This service makes possible for the average car owner to enjoy a complete
 freedom from motor troubles and brealzdowns, since it keeps his car con- stantly running in the best of operat- ing condition. In this manner the car owner enjoys the maximum perform ance of his car all of the time. and by reason of the care and attention hat
 his car receives it's depreciation is nat urally reduced to q minimum.
 This type of auto service is a new feature for Phoenix, but already great number of motorists have found 1t a decided advantage to avail them selves of this particular service. The Home Auto Service company does not operate a garage. but renders an ex- pert auto service of a character call culated to insure the satisfactory oper- ation of it's clients cars at all times
 This service is rendered on the basis of small monthly charge which Nick Nichols explains is more than off set by the many benefits of this service to the car owner.
