RUM S|MUGGLERS
USING FAST TYPE!
Of AUTOMOBILES

The fight against boot-legging and
rum-running on the Canadian border
has developed a new variety of war
fare-a conflict which is nothing
more nor less than battle between
automobiles.
Unlike the battles of the world
war, in which the motor vehicles
called into service were Of the ar
mored type, the present conflict Is
between standard passenger automo-
biles-cars the same in every respect
as those which, in peaceful pursuits.
daily travel the public highways.
The rum-runner of today has chos-
en- the automobile as his principal
weapon in the conduct of his illicit
trade probably for the very obvious
reason that It affords the quickest
means OF conveying his wares to
their illegal market and, by the same
token, offers the greatest chances
for carrying thorugh his venture sue
cessfully. In this connection. 1t Is
worthy of note that rum-runners. al
most without exception. use the most
expensive makes of motor cars-cars
that will sustain a speed of 60 miles
an hour, and upwards.
Not to be outdone by the law vio-
lators in the choice OF weapons Of
warfare, the strong arm OF the law
has likewise adopted the automobile
as the weapon with which to wage
battle. .o.f- ~ ,..s.

TRAFFIC TRUCK
IS LATEST IN
LOCAL FIELD

II the progress that has been made
In the production Of the Traffic
truck since the first on ewas made
four years ago continues, II is going
to be to the truck business what the
Dodge car is to the automobile in
dustry. Four years ago the manu-
facturers of the Traffic truck were
turning out three day. Now they
are producing one every ten minutes
an Increase greater than that made
by the Dodge car, IL comparisons are
to be carried to completion.
And I am going to try and keep
the percentage Of development in
sales in Klamath county on a level
with that Of the production" said
j. r. Elliff, who is going to be the
local Traffic truck dealer in this
territory. Mr.. Elliffs headquarters
will be at the White Pelican garage.
He came here from Oregon City, and
says he is not sorry he made the
change, as he picked klamath Falls
as n winner after he had visited ALL
the other live towns. Take II from
me-" he said, continuing his con-
versation, II think am selling a
truck that will toe the mark with
any OF them, and at that II has moth
ing on klamath Falls. This is the
best doggone town / ever saw. and.

Traffic truck"
The automobile family Of the city
will undoubtedly welcome Mr.. Elliff
into the fold.

when he touched a telephone wire that
had come in contact with the high
tension trolley wires of the Topeka
Railway company.
Kenneth Mattingly, a small boy. en-
tered the shop with the statement that
there was a broken wire lying on the
ground and that he had received a
shock from it. Wolverton went out
and started to wrap the wire around
the telephone post, where it would be
beyond reach. He was killed instant

The broken telephone wire was a
small one about the size of a string.
The broken end was wrapped around
the telephone pole close to the ground,
and connected with the top of the next
telephone pole. On it's way it passed
thru the branches of a tree and had
