"KxceilclU values will lie the keynote of all automotive offer ings this year, whether they be automobiles, accessories or tires Improved methods of production and distribution indicate that prices will be lower and quality will ho better than ever before In the history of the induMry.

Public ap proval is the surest proof that a business Is helnp conducted alone proper lines. Itecause of the .steady Increase in salus in our own business, we have reason to believe that the values offered by the wetern Ato stores and th ser vice we Rive, have merited the un qualified approval of the automo bile owners in thn western states. "The confidence placed In our canipfitiy by the public, and sup port by their patronage has en abled us to increase our business and number of stores.

Wi Forlorn and deserted, living in memory of the past and In hnpo of the future. Such Is this once pros perous mining town in the heart of tht; Kocky mountains. Old timers predict another boom for the town If silver and gold ore prices rise a little more. Even now a few are taking up the pick and shovel. When Central City was settled in lufip, immediately after the dis covery of gold in Clear Creek val ley, near Idaho Springs, the rush to the west was id full swing. In spired by tales of "gold for the taking" in California and of fertile lands between the Mississippi and the Pacific. Many who started for California halted to try their fortune in Col orado. Some prospered Others felt the sling of def'nt and went westward again ol returned to the eaat. Central City was Incorporated In 1S6I and became the seat of flil pin county. A large, square, red brick school house won built. Thi Teller house, erected by Senator Henry Moore Teller, made tho town famous for one of the best j hotHii of the early days. Kuin overtook tho city when ore prices fell so low production costs prohibited mining. The exodus began, and now the golden years are only n memory. Hundreds of deserted mines still mnrk the hillsides like gloomy frowns tin faces of those who have met disappointment. Yet residents of this town grasp hopefully at every fractional ritie -in tho market for precious metal ore. To a stranger they tell of the "hooiu" day, and they con- elude wttn a pmpnecy unit me good times win uumc oatK some day. 1 LOWEST PR5CED . r W ,m hum. . , I 1 ' . 1 ' I i- . 5 telling t'i'-m what wonders lone in the t wemj -nine of i liis century. hnv.i huri Tell them that the stl'Ugulu of the htihiiiu race has been I'.'iiin tbe very heglnningiiig against the law of fiavitat!on. our own W'-lht that huldH us in one place.

The Digest has fort-east successfully the Kctierul result both In 1 If 4 and in lJi. .:nd while the actual errors have been considerable, the accuiiu-y of the ion-east of the net result has made a profound impression on the nation. The strict truth is tli at t he inaccui'icicH of the poll have not seriously affected tho foreeasi oi' the result, because uettlur HtL'l nor l!'- was a close eleciion. Had they been close ' e'ectioiis an error of neoi ly lo peri ei at would have made tho whole forecast unreliable. There is. however, a miih larger ; question than tin reliability of the' poll. That is the question of its social usclulncs, and for the pur poses of tbe argument we shall nsiniiH i tin I ilm I liiroMi tins mi) iter. f,,.,,,. ....li ,,. ,,. j ,,,, t imrejibtniis: it r-io neoiiiet ini'ii ihbic ' .i,.. ..,L,.w :.. v..,....,.i..... mm... tbm which wv should lie t, raise is whether it is in tbe best interest .litiviti.....i it... ooi.ii. ,.f it ..mi ' nlele l-elmbilltv. To know ueeksi'hoH in advance, what' tlw result is ! hound to be is, first of till, a great uatisfaction to thutuj who are curi ous, not about tiie merits of the . candidate or their views, but about who is Rolng to win. The' I l.Igest poll, if it were held to he j infallible, would end betting on elections; It would end nil uneer- ' tainty among those business men i who are disturbed be the uncer- j talnties of an election; it would make all the excitement of n cam paign unreal, fan a better case than this be made for the husi- ness? We think not. for It can hardly he a matter of national in terest that the Literary Digest as a publication should have tho pres tigu and the advertisement of Its enterprise. Let us now look at tho debit side and in slating it we make no hones about speaking out of the experi ence of having been on tho losing side and of having observed at ; first hand the effects on the ml j nority party of the Digest's weekly ; forecasts. They are deadly to the i morale of a minority party when- ever the majority party has a big 1 lead at the beginning of the cam paign. If the Infallibility of the. Digest becomes an established fact in the public mind, that very in I fallibility will be fatal to Un morals of the minority party.
