Oregon dis tributors for the Iteo and Apperson rir for the Northwest, spent several days last week delivering- and taking orders for his line of machines at Astoria. While there he hsd an oppor tunity to try out some of the highways In Clatsop County adjacent to Astoria and was surprised to find the country roads In excellent condition. Mr. Vogler made a trip of more than & miles In a Jteo "30" on the road to the Nehaletn Valley and MacGregor 1-alls. Kor natural scenery and excel lent roads, according to Mr. Vogler. he never saw anything to equal that trip any ptace In the I'nlted States. This particular road, according to good roads enthusiasts of that section, will be extended this season to a point that will make It possible to make the ran from Astoria to Portland In one day. Ho was also told that when fin ished the road will be one of the finest boulevards In the entire West. Murh enthusiasm over automohlling Is being displayed at Aatorla and other points down by the sea, Mr. Vogler said. According to reports sent out from Los Anireles the crowd of New Tear's eve celebrants stopped the Warren-re-trolt 3i" which waa trying for the world's non-stop record recently set by the E-M-K "10" at Los Angeles. 1'ntll the car was atopped by the crowd T7T miles had been traversed without a stow having been made: that Is to say. without the engine being stopped.

TO one who haa never given much thought to the matter. It might seem that the automobile would be of very little use In such a business aa that conducted by the Portland Railway. Light Power Company. Tho natural Impres sion would be that the company would draw from lt own abundant supply of "Juice" for Its various transportation purposes. And so it does, mainly. But that the automobile does essential serv ice, and has an Important part In the operation of the wlde-apreadlng and Intri cate system, la made plain by T. R. Baldwin, superintendent of overhead con struction for the company, who telle of some of the uses to which the automo bile U belnr out. In an Interview for The Oregonlun. "In my own department. m Baldwin, "auto trucks are doing Invalu able service. We have been using them Instead of horse-drawn truck, for the part eight months for the transportation of our repairing towers. They have proven so far superior. In every way. and so much Ie expensive than the team trucks, that we have discarded the lat ter altogether and have adopted the auto tru-k tower for permanent use. "Of courre. for the outlying districts Mr. Baldwin explained, "we utilise our trolley truck with Its tower; it travels on the rail!", and can be run out on the aub nrban lines without delaying the passen ger cars. But In the busy down-town dla trlcta. we cannot afford to Interfere with the congested passenger traffic, and all overhead repairs must be made from a tower-truck running independent of the rails, the upper portion of the tower being hung on a pivot ao that it can be swung out under the wires. et over the cars that must pass underneath. "Formerly we had these pivoted towers on horse-drawn trucks. The bases of tlw truck" were necessarily very heavy, and we had to maintain three teama for each of the trucks, as the work was hard for the horses and the repair crews and ap paratus were subject to call at any time. We lost our tesms in the big fire that neKroved the Fashion stables, and we experimentally tried two of the ltfc-ton Urabowsky auto trucks, constructing our new pivoted towers upon thero- AUTO SHOW LOOMS AS BIG NOVELTY Garages About Portland Will Be Used to Show New Cars. "OPENING WEEK" IS TITLE Innovation Dock Away With Audi torium and Convert Agencies Into Exhibition Palaces Pa- . trons Will Be Carried Free. Portland's next automobile show Is to be conducted In a novel manner by the dealers themselves. The show, which opens on Saturday night. January 21. and contlnuee until Saturday. January J ' ! 4 aTTl isf j hs ai W TH M 18. will beheld at all of the garages Of the different dealers. Each auto dealer entering the show will fit up his garage In the most ap proved manner, and the newest and latest modela of machines, as well as the mechanical departments of the gar ages, will be open for Inspection. The Innovation In exhibiting autoa is patterned after the Ideas of Eastern dealers. A two-minute service of autoa will carry the patrona of the auto show from one garage to. the other. The automobile service w'U be furnished by the Portland Automobile Dealers' As sociation and will be free. The official title of tho show will be "Opening Week." Commencing on Monday. January 23, the various gar ages will be open from 2 to 11 P. M. The Oregon State Automobile Deal ers' Association and the Hardware and Implement Dealera' National Associa tion will h Id conventions In Portland during show week. The Portland Automobile Dealers' Association Is preparing a booklet giv ing all the data pertaining to the show and containing a map of the city, with the location of every garage marked. The booklets will be sent to every au tomobile owner In the state. Frank C. Rlggs and Lv E. Rose are handling the advance work of the show. The automobile! dealers who are to participate In the "Opening Week" are: Auburn Motor Car Company, 303 Burn side street. Auburn; Brown a Nstlon. 633 Alder street, tipeedwell; Carter 8ale Com pany. Seventh and Oak streets. Carter Car; Covey Motor Car Compony. Seventh and Conch etreeia. Plerce-Arroa-CkiMUaci Covey Motor Car Company, new bullOIng under construction. Twenty-flrst and Washington: Crowe Automobile Company. Sixteenth and Alder. Oldamohlls-Marlon: Dulmase SmKh The superiority of the new service was Immediately apparent. The auto tower would reach the scene of the trouble, and the work be done In less time than It would take to get the team truck out of the stable and well-started on the way. Formerly our two tower trucks and sis teams had been kept busy all the time; under the new system re pairs can be ao promptly made that not only better service is given, but the crew enjoys rtasonablo leisure, and the ex pensive upkeep of 12 horses is eliminated. Our observations have shown us that our two auto-trucks will have ald for them selves In the cutting down of expenditures and Improved service, by the end of the Aral year. "In the light and power division." con tinued Mr. Baldwin. "H. R. Wakeman. engineer of the line department, tells me that the automobile serv'ce Is Just about Indispensable. They have two two ton and four four-ton auto trucks deliver ing their materials, conveying their work men to and from the point of repairs or construction, and serving In other ca pacities. "These auto trucks get over the ground faster, carry more materials per trio, and do the. work much cheaper than horse-drawn trucks. An auto truck will take perhaps 2S minutes to travel the distance it would require a team two hours to cover, and will carry a much heavier load. In this department alone the automobile saves the company a tre mendous expenditure In stabling and feed, to say nothing of the value of tho great saving In time and the Improve ment In service. "Throughout the various departments of the entire system," concluded Mr. Baldwin, "the automob'le and the auto trucks are already being utilised ex tensively, and are rapidly supplanting teams. In every ciye the experiment has been an unqualified success, which means a better appreciation of the automobile, and an even more general utilisation of the advantages It offers for the future."

"In the first place it Is to be borne in mind that the commercial car Is an altogether different vehicle from a pleasure car and d'fferent things are expected of It," said J. W. Vogler, of the Northwest Automobile Company, local distributor of the Reo automo bile. "It Is very nice to have pleasing qualities that you 'find In the highly organized pleasure motor cars, but these are not essentials "The essential thing Is reliability. The car must always be ready to do its work when it is called upon. And everything" else must be sacrificed to that one thing. "It must also be borne In mind that the commercial wagon cannot be prof itably operated by a chauffeur. To do this would add more than 11000 a year to the expense of running it. which is altogether out of the question. The small commercial car must be so con structed that any man of ordinary sense can operate It. in fact, so that all he has to do Is to touch the levers, crank it up when necessary and steer. A good chauffeur makes a bad delivery man and a good dellveryman a bad chauffeur. So you must get a car so that your dellveryman does not have to be a chauffeur. "The ordinary experience with motor delivery wagons Is that the driver being freed from the care of horses starts right Intd enjoy his freedom and not give the car any care at all. This Is all right If there Is some one at the stable who will give the car 15 minutes' care a day. A horse requires at least an hour and a half attention. Realiz ing that this Is the case, some makers of small trucks are eliminating all pos sible sources of trouble. "To do this, of course, they have to forego some of the advantages found In the pleasure vehicles, but when you bear in mind that the business wagon Is not a pleasure vehicle, then it is clear that it is the right thing to do. "The trouble Is that a good many buyers of motor wagons do not realise that the same difference exists between a motor business wagon and a motor horse business wagon and a carriage, so they are apt to Insist upon the same mechanical elements as exist In the pleasure vehicle. The proper thing to do Is to forget all these things and buy a car that eliminates trouble. "Elaborate systems of cooling, lubri cating, ignition, and so on, systems cal culated to do delicate, sensitive work, must give place to simpler ways of do ing these things, not only because an elaborate system Is more liable to get .Are Yon the Man We Want?

The week's postponement has given the players an opportunity for a little quiet practise, of which all have availed themselves. The probable winners is just as much In doubt as ever, as 'the teams are so closely grouped that each contest will bring about a decided change in the standings. There will be no more Saturday night games at the Armory thia season, but double-headers will be played on the next three Sunday afternoons. The first game today between Company B and the Derbies should prove a close contest. These teams are old rivals and a tussle between them is sure to be a good one. In the last game between these two, the Derbies got the long end of an 8-to-2 ecore. but the militia boys are determined to reverse the figures this time. Gorham will meet Columbia in the second game, and this should also be a rattling good match. In the last series Columbia beat Gorham 6 to 5. but will have to go some- to repeat, tne win, as the Rubberltes have Improved greatly In their playing. As the remaining games with Van couver are to be played in the Barracks gymnasium, the Spaldings journeyed there on Thursday night and beat tho soldiers at their own game of reckless base-running. The Spalding boys out played and out-batted the soldiers as well, rolling up a score of 22 to 6, with nice increases in all their batting aver ages. - Russia's Cheap Kail Travel. London Tatler.
