Some of Germany’s psychology is

soldiers as when used abroad. To cre

to death, but the result is the oppo

believe tile lie are so scared that they

would not give that support out of
gratitude, selfish considerations at

Standing in front of the army war
college at Washington, D. C. is a
statute of Frederick the Great, who
is alleged to be one of the shining
lights in the history of the German
empire. The figure was presented
to the I nited Slates by Emperor Wil
helm. The motive for the gilt and
wh} it should be placed in front of
the war college is somewhat vague.
But that is all in the past. The Amer

Ben Olcott, now secretary of stale,
a mollycoddle politician of the true-

Olcott first, last and all the time. He
is a cross between the West machine
of political manipulators and the sil

which means “anything to get there.”
He stands for every thing and any
body—to get the votes, and during
his incumbency in office as secretary
of state has never lost an opportunity
to keep in touch witli the "deer peo
ple” for reasons best known to him
self—which reasons are of a decided
political nature. Olcott’s term as sec
retary of state docs not expire until
1920, but he is dead anxious to swing
onto the handle of governorship long
before his present job terminates.
Olcott is one of these astute politi

To The Voters of Tillamook County
I wish to announce that I will be a

Announcement.
Tests of exhaust vapors have shown weaknesses in many
engines. By such tests you can always tell how good an
engine is.
In the great Chalmers engine so very little in the way
of unused or unburned gas comes out of the exhaust as to be
almost negligible. The gas is used up —all of it —in the
Chalmers.
The moment it passes from the throat of the carburetor
it strikes the now noted “Hot-Spot” where it is heated and
“cracked-up” and then rushed on to the combustion cham
bers via the “Ram’s-Horn” Manifold.
When the spark touches it off there is translated a power
such as a gas engine has never known; all the brute force
imaginable, yet tamed down into a softness that is as smooth
as deep water.
Once you play with it with your right foot you will be
amazed at the thrill it’ll give you.
