TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT. MARCH 16. 1916-
What the Editors Say.
The nomination of Roosevelt on the
republican ticket would mean the re
election of Wilson. If he has any oth
er use for the republican party other
than as a means to satisfy personal
ambition, now is the time for Teddy
to show it.—Cottage Grove Sentinel.
One of the newspapers suggests
that every man who asks a return to
the legislature should run on his vol

that his vole on all the bills of im

Over two tons of catalogues from
an eastern mail order house were re

Automo
The very latest advance in automo
bile design is the electric• transmis
sion system. J his system was first
patented by Entz a tew years ago and
the patents were taken over by the
General Electric Company very re
cently.
With the electric transmission sys-
tem, the engine flywheel, clutch ped-
al, gears, starting and lighting ap-
paratue, etc., are eliminated, Tlie
transmission unit consists of a gen-
erator, the field of which is bolted to
the engine crank shaft, and a motor
whose armature . is attached to the
same shaft to which the armature of
the generator is fastened and whose
field is stationary. There is no mech
anical connection between the rear
axel and the gasoline engine, but the
torque of the engine is transmitted to
the driving axel electrically and the
car is operated through what is in
effect a slipping clutch. Instead, how
ever, of wasting in resistance the
energy generated by the slip the pow
er is utilized at intermediate speeds
to drove the motor. The armatures
arc identical and both are fastened to
a hollow shaft which is attached to
the propeller shaft. Change in speeds
IS accomplished by gradually decreas
ing the motor-field excitation and fin
ally short-circuting

brushes at high speed.
I lie car is operated by a six-cylin
der Buda engine, which is started
by the generator operating as a mot
or and taking energy from the bat-
tery. Attached to the steering wheel
IS a controller lever, when this lever
Is turned to the changing position,
energy is taken from the generator
to change the battery. On the first
car motion the field windings of the
generator are connected through re
sistance, the control lever being plac
id in the first position. In the second
position the generator field is s|H,rt
arcutted. In the third position resis
tance is switched into the field coils
of the motor, thereby throwing a
greater load on the generator, which
