The great European war has served at least to show us this one thing, thnt tne worm itseii nna changed: that it had become at once too big a world and too little a world to submit its destinies to tne nostue rivalries and ambitions now of this nnd again of that member of the great fain ly or men; too compact, too miiiinbic hi its" contacts, too universal in its way of intercourse, to make it any longer possible to limit the effects of any na tion's action to a single, sepnrate sphere where the rest would be untouched. An inevitable partnership of interests has been thrust upon tue ntaions. iney are MAXWELL 1917 Model $685 SALEM X Absolutely complete, with Electric Starter and t Electric Lights.

I THE NEW PRICE The most amazing fact about the 1917 Maxwell is its new price, $685, which is $60 less than the price of the 1916 Maxwell car, and this price includes t everything: electric starter, electric lights, every modern feature, every refinement.

Motorists who would be sure that their car is as is as it should be should occasionally turn over the motor of the ear by hand, instead of using the elec tric starter. This will disclose many ills, according to A. . "Dad" Foss of the Oilson' Garage in Portland, who has played with automobiles since the day when Haynea and the boys were making them with one and two cylinders.-' This authority on electrical equipment says that the starter has added still ano ther point to the category of ills that the - average, driver will - overlook just tecaose- the-car -will run and -does get him. around. - . .

"Dad. '" '' i '-.L-t.m -.- Lesson 1 ObTtnus, . wj-. "If he has not done that for six or eight months and has run his car con siderably, be will find that the first or second cylinder can hardly be moved against the compression. He braces himself to lift the next and finds that it slips away from him, so little is the compression.. ' : "A fourth or fifth cylinder may not work quite so easily but still is much easier handled than it. should be. ' "The lesson, of course, is obvious those cylinders which do not work hard, inwhich there isno compression, need immediate attention. Kither, the rings do not lay properly or the valves need grinding. '' "To let them go on in that manner is the quick way to heavy expense bills, the leaking piston rings mean that when starting, condensed gasoline vapor, leaks past the rings and mixes with the oil, rapidly breaking down its lubricating qualities. Lubrication, therefore, is impaired and the results are a guess. Another Trouble Seen. "Still another trouble, resulting from the lack of compression, is the explo sions of greatly varying intensity. In other: words, the power in the different cylinders is so uneven that the-rnotor! hobbles, which is excessive strain on'the'i bearings and every part of the ear. " . "It is queer hovr discoveries change the viewpoint. Four years ago when almost every car was hand-started, that was nothing agninHt the Tiuto.

No wonder that in such an age men in America should be cried awnke and feel once more, as thcy felt them in the days when their great republic was set up, the compulsions of humanity and of justice! These are the freshening winds tlow ing out of the lire or mniiKiim every where, that have brought on a new day in American politics. We have looked once more very critically nt our own laws and our own practices nnd have set about to square them with the actual conditions of our lite and tne lire or ine world. "Four years ago thero wor two par ties in the field whoso program was conceived muter tho influence of these great forces of progress and adjustment, the democratic party nnd the progres sive party. This year there is but one, the democratic party. In the presiden tial election of four yeurs ago some fifteen million votes were cast. Of these, near ten and a half millions were cast for the candidate of the two progres sive Darties. only three and a half mil' lions for the candidate of the republic un j lif BU(l party, tho party which lingered in the4'cJ 'natim oiu ways aim icit none oi me ne indue lif a new day- More than two thirds of the voters of the favored then, and favor now whose object is to serve needs of lntmnnitv und progress. . Tho democratic pnrty was entrusted with the tusk. These powerful forces of the ntw Hgo were put under its direc tion. And under that direction what have they accomplished t They have put both the' bin-incss' nnd the life of the country upon u new footing. They have lelensed the financial credit, upon wuicn to new ciroumstances and conditions- They have released the children of the country in large part from hurtful lab or; have sought to safeguard the lives and the health of our laborers in danger ous occupations: nod have put ageuciea of the government itself at the service of those who seek employment. And most of these things have been done within the brief limits of a single ad ministration. And still the great work is not finish ed. It can never be rounded off and concluded so long as circumstances change and the fortunes and relations of men shift and alter. Tlie question you hnve to decide one week from next Tues day is whether it shall be prematurely interrupted, perhaps for a generation to come, and all the generous forcej of the age and of the world thrown back upon themselves in discouragement ana con fusion. Tho program remaining is ns great as the program accomplished. The - pro cedure of our courts is antiquated and a hindrance, not an. aid, in the just ad ministration of the law. We must simp- reform it as other enlighten- ons have done, and make courts I of justice out of our courts of law.

Treasurer Drager the sum of $106,478.62, Of this sum the city of Salem receives $16, 048.92 and school district No. 24, $8,. 202.42. The feature that brought up the figures was . the Southern Pacific tax of over $35,000. There will be at least one other turn over during the re mainder of the year and it will probab ly be a large one also on account of the taxes of the various utility corporations which are yet to come in. the grand to tal of taxes already turned over is $239, 54.1.78. urcr, an action to recover $814-alleged to be due and owing as part of a be quest, the money of which was turned over to the county treasurer because Pugh was not to be found at the time of the bequest, the defendants this morning filed a demurrer to the com plaint of Pugh, on the ground that the complaint does not state facts, r.uf- - ficieut to constitute a cause oi action. A marriage license was issued this morning to Delbcrt Engene Bliirston, of Salem, and Ethel Marjory Mantel, of Jefferson.-: - There were few real' es'tate transfers in the county recorder's office-- this week.

He alleges she deserted him on August ft, utterly disregarding her mar riage vows. The only reason he can assign for her defection is a want of affection for him and a desire for travel and the company of strangers. He says she threatened to ruin hiiu and has em ered his place of business and caused unpleasant scenes. He asks a decreo of divorce and the custody ofthe child, William A. Griffith.
