'- RUSHLIGHT FOE IT. .'
Rushlight has been nominated for
tha mayoralty In Portland. Without
commenting on the relative merits of
is not amiss to say that It Is a big job
for any man. Portland is reaching
the point where "big city" grafts and
petty corruptions, liable to ramify and
become a menace to the welfare of the
city as a whole, are to be expected;
Municipal improvements and munici
pal this and that make a job for the
mayor that few relish. There has be?n
a big fight In Portland this , year,
warmer than usual, In fact,'anf Rush
light's .nomination was something of
a surprise , to everyone.; His leading
'opponent, Lombard, was apparently
the more popular man before the votes
were counted
With fair and impartial trials given
the new umpire system Inaugurated in
local baseball circles thia year, it la
no longer guesswork to say that the
problem haa been aolved. Six games
have been played and everyone perfect

not the slightest Indication of "rough
stuff" among the audiences. The seem

EETIB3S FROM E. M. F. MEETING.
John 8. Clark Sees Motion Pictures of
E. XL E. Demonstrations
Jqhn S Clark with the M. & M. com
pany, local E. M. F. and Flanders deal
er, has Just returned from a banquet
given at Portland by the Portland ag
encies. Before the banquet all the dealers of
the E. M. F. and Flanders cars were
given a demonstration in the new $800
Flanders fore door car. .
Immediately after the .banquet, a
descriptive lecture, accompanied by
moving pictures, was given to the deal
ers and, the public,, by F, M. Smith,
sptclal 'factory representative,', who
said: . ' ,
"This method of showing the E, M.J

the man who has made the E. M. F.
company what it is. He was the first
automobile manufacturer to establish
profit participation in his factory, and
today a large part of the 12,000 men
working in the shop of the E. M. F.
company at Detroit participate in the
profits of the company through a bon
us system, which is based entirely on
merit It is a source of great regret
to me that Mr. Flanders could not have
been with us, and also Mr. Geo. .
Keller, general Bales manager, as I
would like to have had each one of
our dealers meet them both personal
ly. The moving pictures hive proven
a source of great educational benefit
to the 1.100 or moreV dialers we have
already shown them to, and there is no I
question in my mind but that the
'show-me' method is by far the best."
Within a short time, the pictures
viewed at the banquet will be shown
tor the beneiit of people here, as it is
the intention of E. M. F. and Flanders
factories to have a great number of
films made, which will be sent out to
every dealer they have, and he. In
turn, will exhibit them, free of charge,
to the residents of his city.
