EXCITEMENT OVER
The Much Discussed Rose Case Ends
With Verdict of Acquittal.

That time changes the passing fancy
Of the throng was never better DEM
onstrated than at the third trial of
the Rose case. Just one short month
ago and business practically suspend
ed even on Saturday while the entire
body of citizens packed the court
house corridors to hear the evidence
in the first trial, and the second trial
a few days later attracted the same
attention. Then a gap of three weeks,
and behold the delicious morsel has
lost its tang just as effectually as if
the kick had been removed from the
bootleg exhilerater which was the
cause of all the commotion and spon-
taneous eruption of law and person
al abuse. The power of alcohol was
never more disgustingly demonstrated
than in those days of early January
when two small jars of the stufr-of
doubtful parentage and still more
doubtful contents-hatched a thousand
dollars of legal costs, flow of rum

friendships of years standing and led
to more excesses than it could pos
sibly have done had it been taken in
wardly. The little gathering at the
court house Monday listened to testi-
mony that was like the legalized al
cohol-denatured. With Mr.. Halbert
he of the wide business relations
and slight personal acquaintanceship-
absenting himself for fear he might
discover the name of our sheriff, the
case took on melancholy cast that
showed it was in the scar and yellow
stage. Therefore the jury, realizing
that the show had lost its drawing
power, ended the agony with n YER
dict of acquittal. 1t was time to ap-
ply the AK and stop the affair before
it became a fixed sore on the body
polite. The quicker the sores heal
and the hot heads have time to be
ashamed of some Of the things said
in this muchly overworked but really
petty affair, the better for all con-
cerned. Even the great mind of
Shakespeare never was able to invent
better plot for the title, much Ado

La Junta Farmers Here.

A delegation of La Junta dairy
farmers who have for several years
been patrons of the condensery at La
Junta visited Lamar this week to see
if they could reach an agreement for
a milk route by which they could ship
their milk to the Helvetia condensery
here. Since the closing of the La Jun
ia plant in December they have been
finding market at nearby creamer-
les and cheese plants, but these in
stitutions are not paying the substan-
tial price that the Helvetia has always
paid at Lamar. The farmers, who
have built up good herds and have
obtained an estimate of the profit in
the industry, are desirous of continu-
ing in the business and naturally de-
sire to connect with the best market
for their product.

Lamar the Real Center.

According to the scientist there was
the heaviest earthquake on Tuesday
that the world has known for years.
They say the world was Jared on its
axis to the extent of five-eighths of
IN inch. We don't know just how
much of jar that is, but Lamar
never felt a tremor and is just where
it was on the day before, which only
goes to prove what we have always
maintained that Lamar is the center
of all things.

Finish the Job,

A stockman who has been feeding
sheep in the Arkansas valley since the
industry first started died the other

wife list of six men he wanted to
be his pallbearers. She remarked
that it was curious but all six were
bankers. He replied, eyes, those birds
have been carrying me for over thirty

.JEWETT DEALERS
ISSUE CHALLENGE
Offer 800 to Any Make In
Glass to Compete in
Hill Climbing

Jewett cars are the greatest hill
climbers OF their class. At least the
local Palge-Jswett agents believe so
to such an extent that they are Ia
suing a challenge and offering 500
in gold for any dealer, with a car
selling within $500 of the Jewett
price OF sl,220--to compete with
them in hlll-climblng contest.
with this challenge thrown far
and wide. !cca! agents said yester-
day that they would sit tight now
and see Just how much confidence
other dealers placed in their auto
mobiles.
The Jewett is an offspring OF the
Paige automobile. which holds many
stock car records. In an exhibition
run the Paige 6-65, Daytonla model,
stock chassis covered 10 miles on the
san Carlos, Cal. speedway in 6 min
utes 20 l-5 seconds, on Easter sun
day afternoon. This is at the rate
OF 932 miles per hour for tho 10
miles
Piloted by the veteran driver Earl
Cooper, the Paige gave It's unoffi-
cial exhibition OF 10 miles against
time just before the running OF the
set racing features OF the Easter pro-
gram and n large crowd cheered
Cooper and the car when he fin
ished his dash. This Is believed TO
be the fastest time ever made for
the distance BY strictly stock
chassis.
The official record for tho dis
tance is held by this Paige s.56 Day
tona model stock chassis which,
driven by Ralph milford set the
record at the Unlontown speedway

G minutes 81 4s-100 seconds, or at

SPRINGS NEED CARE
Northop Says Wise Autolst VIII
Give His Spring Needed
Attention,

show me a man who gives the
springs Of his automobile the at
tent!on they need, and I'll show you
a wise and experienced motorist.'
Such is the declaration of Mur-
ray Northop, manager of Alemite
Lubricator company, and he adds
by way OF explanation: without
doubt, tho springs are the most
neglected part OF the automobile.
The average owner treats them IKE
orphans. He assumes, apparently,
that they'll 60 ahead and do their
work with little If any help from
him.
And you really can't blame him
for such neglect. The cleaning and
olling OF greasy, dirty, rusty springs
Is anything but an inviting JOB.
especially on Sunday morninE.
Yet 1t pays TO take care of them,
not alone in the greater riding conf
fort youll get from springs thrt
are working as they should. bu;
also in the protection that engine
parts receive.
Fortunately for the motorlst OF
today he can take care or MS
springs without transferring an ac-
cumul tion of dirt, grease and rust
to his hands and clothing. The
Installation OF Alemite spring COW
ers tears this grief chapter out OF
his instruction booklet, since TINS
device not only keeps the grease
where II should be, and clean, but
also protects the springs from the
dirt OF the road and the water That
eventually forms rust on the
springs"

FORD SALES JUMP
OVER 1921 RECORD
More Than $500 Cars Are
Sold Daily, Reports
Indicate

Se.rYl sales OF Ford cars, trucks
IN tractors established new
bieh record during June. when, ac.
cordlnR to a statement issued from
,be Ford factory at Detroit, an av-
crage OF b,709 machines were sold
dallv. Ryan stated yesterday.
Ford sales have been showing n
constant increase each month this
yoar. June being the highest in the
history OF the company with a total
- si49.A2a cars, trucks and tractors
~ mis- number 6,054 we're sold by
tho Ford company OF Canada and
a 435 by tho various European Ford
companies and South African
branch reaching purchasers in
practically every civilized country
in the world.
with the closing OF business for
ruoe Ford records disclosed the
fact that total sales for the first six
months OF 1922 were well over tho
s,!f. million mark, the exact figures
rejng 6S2,261. This is also new
oirh record as II is considerably I'm
,dvance Of any previous half-ycar
period.
July Ford sales are expected to
,oual and probably eclipse juno
Tbe estimated output of cars, trucks
and tractors has been placed at
T5f.767, although dealers have re-
ouisitioned more than 100000.
Ford officials state that every
o,tcmpt has been made to supply
their dealers with sufficient cars to
nm their orders. but that for the
mas, three months, prompt deliver
ies have been impossible with some
of the types. The demand for Ford
lnclosed cars has been especially
hard to meet. due TO the over-ln-
creaslng popularity OF the coupe
and sedan for all-year-around use.
[ A reflection of general business
onditlons is seen In the record OF
Ford truck sales, which show an in
crease Of "a per cent over last
year. Merchants and farmers alike
have come to recognize the utility
Of the motor truck in cutting trans
portation costs and speeding up de-
ilverles. and the fact that they are
huvlng nearly twice as many now
as year ago clearly points TO bet
ter business conditions.
At the present time Ford Is EN-
rloylng $4,000 men in Detroit.
