B0F15 lit;;!! FROM ESCHBACH

Jp?sp Esclibach, state conscription lyont. today sent out a circular letter 1 Lake county exemption boards in which he recited the recent order from the war department to the effect that vnly 20 per cent of the total number 'of drafted men in any exemption board's district should be entrained for Camp

Taylor, October 3. instead Of 40 per.

- nt. as had been planned originally. "Immediately upon receipt of this letter will your ljcal board kindly notify this department whether or not it w ill be in a position to send more than '' per cent of its quota, and if so. 'how many more," the letter Faid. Mr. EsehI'cich explained that in some districts the sending of 20 per cent (all white

men) could not be accomplished at this j

time, and that he would send additional men from other districts in such instances. In some Indianapolis districts, it was understood, nn additional 20 per ient of the drafted men could not be sent without taking colored men. The government's orders specically provided apainst sending colored men in this contingent. .

To the Editor of The Louisville Courier-Journal. The nv. It. Powell of your city, asserts that it is the essential. Indisputable, unquestioned right of democracy to have its will done in the legislative action on the liquor question, .and claims that if a majority of the lieople vote for prohibition such action is in accord with fundamental democratic principles. The notion that a majority has a rizht to dictate to the minority in a matter of their personal tastes and V.abits is wholly without justification. "With your permission I would like to ak Dr. Powell the following questions: First Do you believe that a majority of vegetarians have a moral right to enact laws prohibiting the production, sale or use of meat? Second Do you believe that a majority of Hebrews have a right to prohibit the sale or use of ham and bate n? Third Do you believe that a majority of rationalists have a right to prohibit the exercise of their religious functions by Christians? Fourth Do you believe that the majority rule of the Mohammedans in Turkey justifies the suppression of Christianity anoncr the Armenians? Fifth Do you believe that a majority of non-smokers has a right to deprive the minority of the pleasure thy derive from smoking? Sixth Do you believe that a ma-

I NEGROES FOILED 111 PURPOSE

(Special to The Times.) HL'XTIXGTOX", LVD., Sept. 27. Mrs. W. E. McConkey returned from Chicago with a story of an exciting adventure, and an escape from robbery or worse. Mrs. McConkey's brother, James Maddy of Xorton, Kas., had been in the east, and with his seven-passenger Oakland, was driving home. He stopped in. Huntington Friday, and Mrs. McConkey, with another sister. Mrs. Hasket of Newcastle, accompanied her brother, his wife and their daughter toward Chicago. They got to Gary late Friday night. In town, two negroes jumped on the running board of the machine, and asked for a ride, at the same time sizing up the party. They were told there was no room for them, and they jumped off and got into a car of their own. They trailed Maddy's car out of Gary. Maddy was held up nt the Pennsylvania railroad crossing, and when the negroes stopped their car, something went

wrong with it. and the men had to get out and work with it. Taking advantage of this. Mr. Maddy drove on, entered a woods, grown in weeds, where there was no road, and turned off the lights. The negroes followed down the road at a good rate. Later they came back and used a searchlight on the roadside, apparently searching for the hidden machine, but they did not find it. Vy this time it was early morning, and the party remained in the woods until .dawn, when they went on to Chicago.

J3 ED CROWN is the perfect efficiency motor fuel because it produces that useful working stroke of the piston, which means smooth, rythmic power, not the violent slam of the piston produced by the so-called "high-test" gasoline, which racks your engine and makes jerky power. The character of the piston stroke depends wholly upon the rate of combustion. The rate of combustion depends entirely upon adjustment of boiling point fractions in the gasoline. These fractions vaporize at different temperatures and in sequence.

The boiling points in Red Crown Gasoline begin at about 95 degrees Fahrenheit. To focus this point your engine need be no warmer than your blood to start Red Crown Gasoline vaporizing, therefore making power.

In Red Crown Gasoline there is a continuous chain of boiling points to above 400 degrees Fahrenheit without a gap. The temperature of the head of the cylinder, in which is contained the piston, when the engine is warm, is between 800 and 1,000 degrees, hence it is apparant that not only every atom of Red Crown is vaporized and burned, but that the rate of combustion is steady. That is why we say Red Crown Gasoline produces that useful working stroke which means smooth, rythmic power, without wTaste, and is, therefore, the highest grade gasoline in the world.
