Diesel Engines in the Air.

The piston squeezes air to one-sixteenth of it's normal volume that becomes as hot as a flame. A jet of cheap atomized fuel oil ignited by the hot air Then follows the usual explosion. Where is the carburetor? There is none Nothing but small oil pipes leading to cylinders. An automobile driver stares incredulously when he sees the engine started while the tanks are being filled Oil be spilled on the hot cylinder with little danger
 It has taken nearly thirty years to bring the Diesel to this state of perfection-thirty years of heartbreaking experimentation but of indomitable hope. courage and skill on the part of American German, French and British engineers striving to

LINCOLN A GUIDE TO US ALL.

Tomorrow the nation will pause again to honor the memory of Lincoln He was born l23 years ago in an earth-floor cabin in sparsely settled part of the Kentucky frontier From obscure be- ginnings and sordid environment, he struggled to eminsnce among the worlds greatest percentages of all time His life and character, always worthy subjects of study and emulation commend themselves with especial force to the consideration of his counTymen, in the throes of economic de- pression and on the threshold of partisan political controversy.
 Lincolns life activities - his self-schooling, his work in village stcre his brief career as a soldier in the Black Hawk Indian war, his practice as a lawyer his service in the Illinois Legislature and in the Federal Congress his record a political leader and his tenure as President-form series of successes that could have been achieved only by sustained energetic and intelligent efforts In approaching a task, he diligently endeavored to understand what needed for accomplishment. In effecting results he was not averse to a com promise as to method, but he could not be swerved into sacrifice of principle.
 Outstanding characteristics of Lincoln are his honesty his patience and his gentleness. He was honest not only in the narrow meaning of monetary obligations but also in the wide sense of moral re- uuiremenfs. His integrity not impaired by the slightest taint of deceit or hypocrisy and oi his purposes or policies was sullied by sIbterfuge
 Lincoln infinitely patient He judged men by their merits rather than by their faults He was disposed to credit everybody with good intentions and slow to admit that anybody had been guilty of lapse from rectitude. Despite opposition and vicssitudes he could not be made to lose faith or abandon hope in the triumph Of just cause.
 He was gentle to the extraordinary degree. His words and writings contain nothing of an acrmon- ious nature He refrained from the vituperative speeches that were common during the Civil War against the foes of the Union. Even when unfairly criticised wcously ridicued by partisan foes, he never retorted in kind All of his campaigns for office waged without any resort by him tc personalities He could not harbor political grudges
 The energy persistence and probity that char acterized Lincoln qualities that essential tC the solution of present economic problems. His for bearance and kindliness example for partisan leaders to keep clean of abuse and recrimnation their approaching political contests.
 Lincoln's sovereign remedy for all public ills was government of the people, by the people, for the people" So long as adherence is given this great democratic doctrine, thsse United States, we can confidently believe with him. shall not perish from the earth

Cheating Our Own Prosperity.
Seward Gatsway.)

The well-spring of the titanic volume of business of every nature which flows through the channels of trade and commerce in such cities New York, Chicago etc, is the individual and collecting bank ing institutions Without this stimulus the wheels of industry would cease overnight, gigantic indus trial undertakings which stand out as marvels of creative genius would wither and die in the en- bryonic stage of their conception All these de- partures demand a certain risk Without it money would become frozen and it's virtue as creative force cease. This is practically condition existing with respect to five billions of money as rep resented in what is known as conservative" loans real estate recognized industrial bonds and other 'gt-edged" securities One of the results of this
 nelastc ond operative capital is reflected in the depression affecting the States.
 During the month of October, 1929, when some of the largest industrial enterprises came into fruition there was total of S649SO0O00O of liquid money as represented in brokers loans in New York This gigantic may be likened to table stakes in an immense game of poker-each million or fraction thereof represented stack of chips, which in pass ing carried a purely speculative value The money
 invested in mercantile industrial and other con- structive enterprises has something tangible and creative behind it. Tn the aftermath the in and outflow from these industries represents the real stability of the nation.
 A little over a decade ago the economic employment of money was the major and primary part of Alaskan banking The Territory's industrial field represented in it's mines Without this capital it is mutabe if the first $35o0000OO in gold could have been extracted from the graves or lodes. Without this stimulant neither the Fairbanks Ex- ploration Company or the other big dredging out fits could have undertaken the harvesting of the estimated $700000000 worth of gold.
 But the large sums necessary for such under takings come from the great money esnters of the world The returns from operations save a tithe dsbursed in labor, go back to the outside world. It is the employment of banking capital in the stimulating of a number of small mines that the industrial advancement of Alaska lies This is con- firned both by the attitude of the Federal Govern ment and the observation of many economists who have sought the answer to Alaskas problems. There l is no more risk in loan to mine operator than in any other line of business-not much in 90 per cent of the businesses to which loans are made
 | One of the greatest stimulants to all lines of business would be recognition of the fact that our chief raw material is gold, and by the encourage Iment of it's development and production au ques- Itions of employment, business success aid civic growth may be answered.

GOV. SMITHS POSITION.

The position Of former Gov Alfred E Smith with regard to the Democratic nomination for the Presidency, as revealed in his formal statement to newspaper men in New York City and his subse- quent interview following conference with Gov Franklin D Roosevelt, is clearly of receptiyity It is equally plain that he is not now and has no intention of becoming candidate for the non,- nation When he asserts that he is not opposing the nomination of any other candidate in the field hs is evidently taking the only possible ster by which he can set at rest the persistent reports that he is party to a movement to block the nom- ination Of Coy.

Kellogg's ALL-BRAN Brings
Relief

Constipation gets its grip on q
person almost unawares. It often

ion. Unpleasant breath. If un-
checked, it may seriously impair
your health.
Fortunately, you can avoid this
danger by eating a delicious CO.
real. Laboratory tests show that
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN provides two
things needed to overcome common
constipation: "bulk" and vitamin B.
ALL-BRAN is also a rich source Of
iron for the blood.
Biological tests demonstrate that
the "bulk" in bran is similar to that
in leafy vegetables. Inside the body,
it forms a soft mass, which gently
clears out the intestinal wastes.
How much better than taking un-
pleasant patent medicines. Two
tablespoonful Of ALL-BRAN daily
are usually sufficient. Serious cases,
with every meal. If not relieved
