Stop and Consider
Mr. Truck Owner, and Mr. Truck
Driver, you know that Winter will I
soon be here and with it the rainy, I
snowy, ugly weather that is a
bugabear to every owner and driver.
Are you going to drive your truck this Winter without
the protection to yourself and your goods that a good,
substantial Cab and Top will afford you?
No, you are going to take care of your own health and
your merchandise by getting a good Top attached to your
i truck.
We are Specialists in this line. Let us estimate the cost
to you, NOW, and equip your car so that you will not be
one of those who will want to lock the stable door after the
horse is gone.
We also are Experts m Curtain and Top Repairing for
touring cars. We do Painting, Spring Work, Blacksmith
ing, Woodworking and Commercial Body Building.

LATEST RETURNS
GIVE SENATE TO
! THE REPUBLICANS
Newberry Leads Ford in Mich
igan; Nugent Ahead of
Rival in Idaho Race
Washington, Nov. 9.—A Repub
lican majority in the next Congress
at least two in the Seriate and of
not less than 43 in the House was
! assured from returns lust night
from the scattering doubtful districts
of last Tuesday's elections.
Word from Detroit of the election
| In Michigan, upon almost complete
j unofficial returns, of Truman H.
I Newberry, Republican candidate for
I the Senate, over Henry Ford, Dem
] ocrat, increased the Republican
! Senate roll to 49 —a bare majority,
j The Democrats have 46, with the
Idaho contest between Senator
Nugent, and former Governor Good
ing still in doubt. On the face of
almost complete unofficial returns,
Nugent has a majority of nearly 500
but Gooding has demanded an offi
cial count to be made November 15.
Returns from the last missing
House district —the Second Montana
where a Republican was elected to
the seat now filled by Representa
tive Jeanette Rankin, unsuccessful
independent candidate for the Sen
ate—were received.
On the face of now complete un
official returns the political line-up
of the next House is as follows? Re
publicans, 239; Democrats, 194; In
dependent, 1; Socialist, 1.
Prospect of holding not less than
49 seats in the Senate, regardless of
the outcome of the Idaho contest,
places the Republicans in a position
to take control of the Senate from
the Democrats and reorganize it.
With 4 9 votes necessary to control,
however. Republican leaders realize
that organization will depend upon
unbroken partisan alignment.
