If the people hadn't lliis method of undoing what the reeent special session of the legislature hay done, there would probably be blood shed. Of eourse no one knows all the legislature lias done as yet, least of all the legislators. Dut aside from the fish coniinLssion seandal there are at least two aeeomplish nients, which the people will proceed to snow under just as soon as they get th'e opportunity. One is the proposition to disenfranchise the independ ent voter and make supreme the old party machine slogan. "Vote the ticket straight!" and the other is to make amendment of the constitution practically impossible by requiring a two-thirds vote of the registered electorate. tzz -- ., - .

P. leaders have blamed everything but themselves, when they alone are to blame. The trouble with the republican party in this state is the leaders don't seem to know the people, and can't seem to get acquainted! Imagine the G. 0.

"I was beginning to think," she continued, "that 1 would have to bear my wretched health as long as lived. 1 had no appetite, and when managed to eat a few bites 1 could not digest it and as 1 could get no strength or nourishment I fell off twenty-five pounds In weight. I hard ly knew what it was to be without a headache. All my life I have been so constipated that every day for years 1 had to take a laxative. My tonguo was always coated and 1 had a bad taste In my mouth all the time .My condition was so bad that I cc-uld get little sleep, but would roll and toss about all night long. "Hut all that is changed now, for since tukins Tanlac I am able to oat anything I please without any bad after effects and I have actually gain ed thirty pounds. 1 haven't had t headache in so long 1 have almost forgotten about them. My constipat ed condition has been relieved and never have that bad taste or coated tongue any more. I sleep nine to ten hours every night, can do my housework with case and I have so muc h new life and energy that I Just feel fine all the time."

Head and judge for yourself. The demand Is greater than the supply. Fur the liino months ended Sole lumber :10th, 11,770,000 barrels wuro withdrawn from storage, consump tion for the period being that much greater than production. At the present rato of consumption oil held in storagu will be entirely exhaustud, according tc- the New York lOvcaing Post, before the end of 1120. This country produces approxim ately ltd percent ot the world's total crude petroleum. The demand for 11 is growing all the while. More than half the vessels nu-w being built are to be oil burners; the new ships of the enitcd Stales navy now under construction are all oil burners. Lo comotives burning oil consumed in the t'nitcd Slates 111 the year 1917, 4 , 7 0 7 , 0 S a barrels. There are at least lour million nuti.'iuobiles in the I'lilted Stales, probably averaging five hundred gallons ot gasoline apiece a year. It Is estimated that there are over thirty millions o( in dustrial horsepower In this country and iiuiniiliietnriiiK pluuts tiro turn ing more and more tL- fuel oil because of its greater economy. Petroleum's possibilities unfold with a rapidity that almost slHgter the imagination. The statistics of the I'nited States geoUmle survey stato Unit the oil re quirements c-f tills country were ap proximately fifty-two million barrels in excess of the 1'nitod Slates supply in Ihe year 1917. Oil slocks have rosistered sensational advances since peace xxas assured, tiains of from sixty to one hundred and seventy points have been made by Bome of tin better oil sti.x'ks. AVe have led the world in produc ing, refining and distributing petro leum, and yet xve cannot even satisfy our oxvn veiiulrements.

Hut they tire not ( ienuine Ford parts made by the Ford Motor Com pany. They are made by concerns that have no connection whatsoever with the Ford Motor Company. Those imitation parts are not even made from the same grade of steel, or under the same formulas used by the Ford Company. They are counterfeit parts. Tests have shown them to break when the genuine Ford part's didn't even bend, and they generally are from thirty-five to one hundred per cent lower in quality. The Authorized Ford Dealer is your protection. As such, we handle nothing but the Genuine Ford parts. They are made from the famous Ford Vanadium Steel and each part according to its use is heat-treated in the way that will give it the longest wearing qualities. Every part is the same as its duplicate in your Ford car or Ford truck. Our stock of parts is complete. And our Ford garage and Ford niochar. irs are at your service at all times.
