THE TIMES

ROMANCES THING OF THE PAST. Romance in the west has gone. Most of the picturesque features of boom towns have fallen before the demand of modern industry. In the great Texas oil fiei;ls, amid t he mad rush of the " bl.o k grease" gangs of the Ranger gusher district, the cumberst me wagons drawn by plodding oxen

i are reins of the past.

PRICE CUTTING WAR DISASTROUS. The price cutting campaign seems to have died a violent death if there ever was a price cutting campaign. The goo.

The New- York (ilobe says that '"The public is pathetically willing to believe that price cutting by a few department stores, accompanied by the contraction in loans and a selling movement in

"Second, it. would involve us in the politics of Europe and compel us to deal with implacable race hatreds. "Third, it would involve us in the fierce commercial rivalry of the big nations.

BETTER OFF WITHOUT OEM. The story that at the time a woman in a Missouri town was evicted from her home and placed upon charity two of her sons were in jail for thieving, might on

first thought suggest that if the lads were freed the case I

of their parent might be better. True, her position new is lamentable and anything done fur her might mean an improvement, but who thinks that sons unmanly enough or thoughtless enough to desert her in the first place could.be depended upoji to re.-cue her now? If they had any wit they would have" known tha-t she would be ejected from her hrnie if they did not aid her, and if they had any manhood they wpuld have stood by her. Instead they are found held in another state in connection with thefts from railroad yards. - Vn-.il they show awakening manhood their mrther will be better off without them "better, off" because while they deserted her, she found others, ready to care for her. They, certain" y are In no position to expect leniency.

THE HEARTS OF THE PEOPLE. Witness the championing of (Joy. Edwards, democratic candidate for president, by his campaign manager, Walter Vick, of New York, before the senate committee: "Gov. Edwards is not a 'wet' candidate." Vick said. "He has not touched a drop of anything with alcohol in it for thirty years. His issue is 'personal liberty.' He i a believer in a state's sovereignty and in the right of the people of a state to exercise their right of 'personal liberty." " Senator Reed provoked laughter by remarking that "Gov. Edwards candidacy is very dear to the hearts of a great many people." We wonder how tar Mr. Edwards thinks he will get anyway," when Mr. Bryan camps on his trail.

Back of the manufacture of Goodyear Tires for the smaller cars is the same purpose to supply high value in the product that is behind the manufacture of the Goodyear Tires that equip the most expensive automobiles built. This purpose is expressed by the enormous resources, extraordinary skill and scrupulous care applied to the manufacture of Goodyear Tires in the largest tire factory in the world devoted solely to the 30x3-, 30x3 and 31 x4'inch sizes. The effect of this endeavor is noted in the fact that last year more cars using these sizes were factory-equipped with Goodyear Tires than with any other kind. It is also noted in the fact that if you own a Ford, ChevTolet, Dort, Maxwell, or other car requiring one of the sizes mentioned, you can secure Goodyear Tires and Goodyear Heavy Tourist Tubes at the nearest Goodyear Service Station.
