WHEEL ALIGNMENT IS
OF rlUCH IMPORTANCE
Tire Injury Caused by Wheels
Out of True.
First Symptom of Something Wrong
Is Rapid Wear In Center Of
Tread-Tubes Should Re-
ceive Careful Tests.

The time Is at hand when car owners
give their cars q thorough overhaul
ing In preparation for summer use.
The attention required for tires In
this spring renovation Is very limited
and simple.
One Of the first and most important
Is to get the front wheels into proper
alignment. Bad alignment Is n of the
principal causes of tire injury. The
first symptom of misalignment Is rapid
wear In the center of the tread. Ex-
animation Of the alignment should In
clude an investigation to see that there
are no loose bearings, for a loose bear
ing means a wobbly wheel.
Examine the castings of tires for
cuts. III cuts are filed with heal-a-
cut dough the cuts will not grow big
ger.
Tubes should receive special atten-
ton, for met they have been placed In
side the castings they are forgotten.
Test the tubes for slow leaks. Put
new %pIungers In the valves. even II the
old ones appear satisfactory. The rub
Der washers In the plunger become stin
and hard after a time and It Is good
policy TO change them at least once
a year.
The pump should be tested, especial
~ the rubber tubing and the connec-
lions. II the leather piston head In
your hand pump has dried up 1t may
be softened by q liberal application of
vaseline. II II IL gone beyond help you
ran get q new leather at a supply
store. The same advice as to inspec-
ton OF connections applies In the case
of a mechanical pump attached to the
engine. See that the pump Is well
oiled, especially In the cylinder. but
avoid excess oil. as II may find Its way
into the inner tube.

The district baseball league opened
at Ruth last Sunday and when the
merry-go-round was stopped Ruth
claimed a total of II copper rings,
offering the Ely boys IA as their
share of the proceeds. A more ami
cable settlement was demanded ana
the outsiders were allowed to strike
an average. which resulted in 16 to
Ia 1-2, with the boys from the mine
hauling down the long end of the
purse, to which all conceded they
were justly entitled.
As umpire Gerald A. McNay in
creased his already popular standing
in this district, and that Is considered
a feat to be proud of. His decisions
we're absolutely fair and the usual
calls coming from the rooters on the
losing end which attend practically
all ball games, such as Shoot the
c~ross-eyed crook" were conspicuous
by their absence.
Promptly at 4:45 Umpire McNay
introduced Sheriff II. G. Nicholson to
the large audience. The chief peace
officer of the county passed the first
ball over the plate and the sport
was on.
The game was a good II and
brilliant plays proved concllsiveiy
that the teams are composed OF the
best of timber. As the league gets
well under swing during the season
excellent games will be furnished
and the public will undoubtedly show
their appreciation OF the clean sport
by giving The teams the support to
which they are entitled.

BOXING CARNIVAL FOR ELY
rs CELEBRATION FEATURE

As the glorious Fourth draws near
the various attractions which will
stand out during the celebration in
Ely this year are the subject of gen.
eral discussion, and the boxing car
nival which will be staged In Bio
hall promises to be a high-class at
traction which will add considerable
to the festivities.
w. C. (Billy) Lawrence, who is in
active charge of arrange Tents, has
succeeded in bringing together the
principals for the main event as well
as for a curtain-raiser, which will be
a high-class show In itself.
The doors will be thrown open
promptly at 1870 o'clock, when ev-
erything will be in readiness. and spe-
cial care will be exercised for the
comfort of the ladies, as the manage.
ment expects al unusually large at
tendance of the fair sex. Scientific
boxing contests have recently won Ia
vor with society ladies In all the large
cities of the east and the Ely district
is never behind either in fashion or
in sports.
Under the contract with the own.
ers of the big hall 1t must be cleared
Immediately following the boxing
carnival and in ample time to be put
in readiness for The dance which will
be given under the auspices of the
American Legion In the evening.
The boxing contests will De brought
to a close in time to allow the srecta-
tors to regain their composrre after
the pleasant excitement and settle
down for another big show before the
ball game opens in the municipal
park.
The maiu boxing event. which will
be a ten-round contest between the
well-known Johnny Dunn and Young
Brooks, will be one of the fastest
and most enjoyable exhibitions of the
game of hit, stop and get away that
has been witnessed in this section
for many years. Both mon are so
well known that instead of discussing
their relative merits the fans will
simply set back and wait for them to
enter The ring. The two men are dill

igcntly training and will step through
the ropes In the pink of condition,
both confident of winning the major
share OF applause from the audience
and mt the close carrying eway the
laureIs.
The Ruth Midgets viii, furnish the
appetizer for the audience, and q
dainty morsel 1t will be. The two
young stars recently furnished an
exhibition at Ruth, following which
their fame spread through the dis
trict like fire In dry grass and just
to see them in action people Will
travel from far distant points.
There will be a semi-windup but
the principals for this event have rot
as yet been definitely decided upon.
The name of Kid Moran of San Fran
cisco is the one most frequently men,
toned and II a worthy opponent can
be secured for him he will in all
likelihood be signed up. Moran came
to this district a short time ego and
has a long list of victories to hts
credit. He is considered one OF the
best men in the western states at
1875 pounds and is willing to meet
any boy In this district who will not
tip the beam over 135. His last con-
test was with George Lois in Salt
Lake, where he went four rounds in
a contest that kept the audience on
tiptoe from bell to bell.
Harry Casey, the star performer in
the welterweight division, came here
from Salt Lake recently and will no
doubt be seen in the ring at an carly
date. He will no doubt be at the
ringside with a challenge inshis peck
ct when the contest Is staged here be-
tween Dunn and Brooks.
While there are several here now
ready to put on the gloves and ca
pable of furnishing a good exhibition
the management of the coming car
niyal will look we'll over the field be-
fore signing up with airy of them in
order that the coming exhibition may
not only be the cleanest and best
which will appeal to all followers of
high-class athletic events, but at the
same time be between men selected
from the best in the entire field.

Weather and Crops
First Week in June

Director II. F. Alps of the Reno
weather bureau has issued the fol-
lowing weather and crop report for
the week ending June IA:
The week opened warm but there
was a change TO much below normal
perature during the middle part.
The weather was partly favorable and
partly unfavorable for the develop

extent from strong afternoon winds
There was more changeahle and blus-

well. In the Deeth district livestock
are in good condition, crops are back

done. Grasshoppers are present in
unusual numbers. In other northern
districts much the same conditions
prevail. Crops are backward a
of the late spring but making sati5-

GAS PROBLEM IS
ONE that CROWS
Fluid Distilled Today Contains
Much That Used to Be
Known as Kerosene.
ENGINEERING SHOWS RESULTS
Intake Manitoba Are Being Designed
to Give just Right Amount Of
Heat to vaporlxe Last Drop
Of Gasoline.

Every motor car manufacturer Is Of
fering in his 1922 product what he
considers an excellent device for get
ting the greatest possible power kick
ont Of the kind of gas a car has to
swallow these days.
The poor-gas problem Is one which
has grown with the motor industry.
The first few ~"horseless carriages"
pulled along on a fluid that was so
volatile under ordinary atmospheric
conditions that 1t was readily com-
bustible. Now that the use Of cars
has increased to the extent that we
have forgotten the 'horseless car
riage' and speak of the 'horseless
age" tho tremendous increase In the
demand for gasoline must be met by
cutting lower into the crude oil.
Gasoline distilled today contains
much that was known as high grade
kerosene a few years ago. II Is an
.adlcation OF the progress made in
cars that they hum over the hills on
the fuel and sputter as little as they
do on cold days. That's where the

showing results,
Proper combustion, In addition to It's
results In aceeleratlon and mileage, af-
fects fabrication because unburned
raw gasoline leaking into the crank
case thins the oil.
A Worthy Ambition.
The ambition Of the modern motor
engineer Is to introduce into the CON-
bustion chamber the most rapidly
burning fuel possible. When the fuel

Intake manlfolds are being designed

Heat usually Is applied only TO the
liquid fuel. One of the two main
methods used permits the liquid to

vaporlzed fuel passes without coming
into contact. Another series Of hot
spot devices uses a settling chamber

ELDER HILL

After an absence of two weeks we
again chronicle the events of this sec
ton of the county.
The extremely dry weather which
has been prevalent in this part of
the country for the past several
weeks, was broken last Thursday
morning when a gentle rain began
falling about seven o'clock and con-
tinued throughout the day. The
drouth had assumed serious proper
tions, the farmers fearing that the
fall pasture and vegetation would be
burned out. All were very grateful
for the refreshing showers that fell.
The Brethren closed their meetings
at Elder Hill last Saturday night,
and they rejoiced over the conversion
of three who have decided to walk
in the straight and narrow way with
their Creator.
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Groves and
family, of West Virginia, were the
guests of Mr.. W. c. Groves, Of this

per cent.
The last year of Wilson's admin
istration the actual cost of running
the government was $5,53S 900 900 The
actual cost Of running the government
for the fiscal year just ended June
30 was $3,795,000, 900. This is an an
nual saving of $1,743, 900, 900 which the
Republican administration has made
in the routine expenditures of the gov
eminent. This was possible because
the Republican Congress early in its
special session re-enacted budget law
which the previous Republican Con-
gress had passed only to have a DEM
Ocratic President veto it. It was easi-
ly the most important piece of bust
ness legislation which has been en-
acted within this generation. After
its enactment it was sensibly applied
by the executive officers of the Re-
publican administration.
The work of Congress, the wise adj
ministrative policies and the introduce
ton of business methods by the de-
partments in the conduct of public
affairs have all combined to revive in
dividual and corporate enterprise, so
that today, in contrast TO a year ago,
unemployment has ceased to be a
factor outside of those industries in
which there are strikes. Agriculture
is on its feet. Business is improving
each day. Industrial output is increas-
ing Capital is going back to work in
the channels Of private and profitable
enterprise 1t really makes some diff
ference at the end of a year whether
the government has been controlled by
an administration and a Congress that
are generally right in contrast to an
administration and Congress that were
generally wrong.
The Republican party will go before
the country this fall without any apol-
ogy for this record 1t is a record
which needs no defense. The people
are not going to stop the magnificent
work so well begun. They are not
going to retreat to the conditions
which prevailed prior to March, 1921.
They are not going to return the Dem
ocratic party to power and thereby re-
store the evil conditions which have
been so largely corrected in the past
16 months Of Republican control of
the executive and legislative branches
of the government.

safe to say no staff could have been
selected who were better qualified by
their legal attachments and by their
particular experience and knowledge
of the war graft situation.
Never in the history of the Depart
ment of Justice have the antitrust
laws been so vigorously prosecuted as
during the last 5 months. For the
first time Jail sentences were imposed
as punishment for violation of the
Sherman Antitrust Act in the case
of United States VS.. Alexander Reed,
ct al. The department at this time
has under investigation more than so
cases of alleged violations of the An
Thrust Act and has pending in the
courts 26 such cases. Since March
4, 1921, the Attorney Generals Of
fee has won 100 cases in the United
States Supreme Court and lost Al. In
that time it has tried 166 suits in
the various United States Courts and
won 10. The department has been
very successful in defending the gov
eminent in the United States Court
of Claims where litigation has greatly
increased as result of war con-
tracts and tax cases. Twenty suits
were decided in this court on June
II, in which the Attorney Generals
department appeared for the govern
ment. In these 20 cases the govern
ment sued for the aggregate of $16.-
$4,000. The total of the amounts
allowed was only s533,365.
This, in brief, is an outline of some OF
the more important activities of the
Department of Justice since March 4.
1921. An enormous amount of work
has been performed and every branch
of the judicial service is character
lied by energy. intelligence and dis
patch. The record of the department
under the present administration not
only reflects great credit upon Attor-
ney General Daugherty and President
Harding, but it inspires confidence
and respect of our people everywhere
in the courts and in those in whom
the responsibility and power of ad-
ministering the law IS invested. 1t
will remind our people that this is
a government of laws and not of men.

Sixteen months ago the Republican
Party took over the management of
the largest business concern in the
world. 1t found the organization of
this concern utterly demoralized as a
result Of eight years of riotous waste,
gross mismanagement and class leg
lslation. There was a bonded indebt-
edness Of $23, 997,000,000 Government
bonds were selling at IS cents on the
dollar. There we're outstanding loans
to foreign countries of 81 200, 900, 900,
for which there was no written evil
dence of Indebtedness, much less any
business or legal agreement as to how
and when the loans and interest were
to be paid. The discount rate at Fed

for gilt edge loans. Five million wage
earners were in idleness. Farmers
faced bankruptcy. Hard times pre-
vailed. Business lived from hand to
mouth Everything needed readjust-
ment and reconstruction. Such, in
broad way, were the conditions pre-
vailing when this administration took
control Of the country and the present
Republican Congress was called into
special session
Today we have a President whose

lection of the American people. He

ton assumed control it calleI into
special session the Republican Con-
gress to assist it in Strengthening out
the situation. Since then the execu-
tive and the legislative branches of
the government, both under Repub-
lican control, have worked together.
AS a result of their joint effort there
has been within the last 16 months
marvellous transformation. The bono
ed Indebtedness has been reduced by
S1,014,000,000. Today every issue of
Liberty and Victory Bonds is selling

crease of $3,OOO,0000OO in the value
of government securities in 16 months.
