Concern. Confirms Reports of
Activities in Industry
Word ■ ome-s from Akrou that activ- j
itics iu tlie rubber trade i-ontinue brisk- ,
Iv in spite of a possible shortage in
rubber if reverses are experienced on :
the ocean. The Miller Rubber Company ;
of that city, manufacturing Miller '
tires and accessories, reports that con
tracts have been let fur the erection of j
a two-story brick fireproof building. '
120x128 feet, which will be used as a
tire building extension and when com
: pleted it will increase the present ca j
pacitv to over one thousand tires per
div
This same company recently bought |
thn plant adjoining their property,!
which was owned by the Franz Body I
Work?. This will be partly rebuilt and '
u«e.| as a shipping department, while j
temporarily it serves as a garage. At the j
rear of the plant a three-story ware >
house 40x110 feet is being built, and
rn addition to the drying room 50x100
, feet is under construction.
These additions will give a total fac
tory space of 272.903 square feet or
about six and one-half aeres and a new
• power plant of 2000 horsepower is be- i
mg installed.
Complete extensions are expected to
be finished by January 1, 1915.
Confirmation of these reports were
had of Frank B. Bosch, of the Sterling,
Auto Tire Company, of this city, who,
are the local distributors for the Mil
ler Rubber Company. Mr. Bosch in :
confirming the reports attributes the
need of the extensions to the normal
growth in popular favor of the Miller
tires and tubes which are fast estab
lishing an enviable reputation among
motori«t" in general, and particularlv
is this the case locally, where the serv
ice given bv the tires this season have i
been of a very high average.

SAFETY OF OTIS ELEVATORS!
Interesting Display of Service Shown
in Windows of Local Office, 28
South Third Street
Otis elevators have been from the
beginning preeminently safe. With
Elisha Graves Otis, the inventor of the
power elevator, safety was a matter
of devotion. He realized that the whole
question of the elevator's existence
and progress rested on the extent to!
which elevators were made safe and in |
consequence his elevators were invari- j
ably equipped with safety devices,
even when not demanded bv the pur
chaser. It has been this continued :
safety of Otis elevators that has creat
ed the public's universal confidence in,
elevators—a public that travels nearly |
twice as much each day in a city's!
elevators as on tiie city's street rail
ways. The primary reason for the sale- j
tv of Otis elevators is found in their'
superior, careful design and workman-'
s'uip.
It is almost unnecessary to state I
that these safety devices of Otis ele-!
vators are rarely called upon to oper- j
ate. In the everyday operation of an I
Otis electric elevator it is the eiee- ■
trical safety features which make cer-1
tain the speeds, starts, stops and auto-!
matic retardation of the ear at the;
upper and lower limits of travel that |
insure the public's safety in elevator'
travel.
An interesting display of elevator
service is being shown in the windows I
of their local offices by H. C. Mother- i
well, the llarrisburg representative, at i
!8 South Third street.

EFFECT OF COLD WEATHER
IN STARTING MOTOR CARS
George G. McFarland Gives Timely Ad
vice to Auto Owners Concerning Ad
justment of Machine During a Cold
Snap
"When the motor refuses to start
these cold mornings, the trouble can be
traced usually to the carburetor." states
Geo. G. McFarland. of the Harrisburg
Automobile Company, distributors in
this territory for the Haynes, America's
first car. "More gasoline is required in
cold weather than jn warm weather,
and the adjustment should be made ac
cordingly. Tie reason is simple when
it ,« considered that the richer the mix
ture of cas going into the cylinders,
the more heat will be generated.
"The outside air is much colder, and
consequently the heat will radiate much
taster from the cylinders than in warm
weather. To £et the same results from
the motor, this extra loss of heat must
be made up by supplying an extra
amount of fuel. The cooling svstem
should also receive careful attention to
prevent any damage arising from freez
ing. The radiator cells have very thin
walls for rapid cooling, and the lightest
freeze is liable to develop leaks. The
system should bo cleaned out with a so
lution of ordinary washing soda and
water, and then an anti-freezing solu
tion of some sort used.
The Haynes Automobile Company
has found the solution of calcium
chloride in water to be very satisfac
tory uuder all conditions. Alcohol is
expensive and requires frequent re
newal. Use chemically pure calcium
chloride. The commercial form usually
contains acid that is injurious to the
metal parts. Get a strip of blue litmus
paper from the drug store, and if it
turns pink in the calcium chloride solu
tion, put in enough ammonia or soda
ash until it remains blue.
"The amount of calcium chloride to
use may be found from the following
table: e
Pounds of Calcium Freezing Point
Chloride per gallon. Degrees Fah't.

WHAT AIKIUSEDTHE CROWDS
McFarland s Prize Bulldog and Beauty
of Haynes Light Six Attractions
at Chestnut Street Exhibit
<-'eorge G. McFarland. president of
the Harrisburg Auto Company, and
• E. Horn, special representative, of
the Haynes automobiles, are congratu
lating themselves on the large crowds
that visited their exhibit at the big
show in the Chestnut street auditorium
this week, attributing their success to
their personal efforts to entertain
visitors.
It is the opinion of quite a number
of people, however, that these gentle
men have another guess. They sav that
it was "Wrinkles," Mr. McFarland'#
prize bulldog, and the beauty of the
Haynes light six that caused the ex
pressions of approbation and delight,
■fiist the same, they are very enthusi
astic and take groat pride in the
Haynes light six and are satisfied that
their car and "Wrinkles should possess
such attractive qualities, and they con
tinue to wear the pleasaut smile that
won't come off.

were adopted it would wipe out his
most valuable political asset, tiie
Eighth ward, is also spoken of for
Recorder. Mr. Tunis was a candidate
! for the nomination for Prothonotarv
' when Mr. Holler was nominated, and
1 failed to connect by a narrow margin.
; Frank Roth, court stenographer, will
also be a candidate for Recorder and
will put up a sitff tight on "the Hill,"
: For County Treasurer, Sol. Kuhn,
| ot Linglestown, a prominent auction
j ecr and cattle dealer, will have another
; 'ry. Some years ago Mr. Kuhn went
after the county treasurership and was
defeated. He expects to do better this
time. William Pavord, superintendent
of the Harrisburg Shoe Company, and
former president of the Harrisburg Re-
I publican Club, also would like to°hau-
J die the county's cash, and "Jimmy"
L»anfz. ot Eliza hethville, vice chairman
of the Republican County Committee,
; has aspirations that would land him in
j Mr. Bailey's present place.
For Register-of Wills there are three
| aspirants thus far heard from. William
iF. Houser, of Middletown, former
j janitor at the Court House, who failed
| to get the postoffice under Republican
administration, will enter the contest,
; and another Middletown man. David
, Hatz, one of the most widely known
j citizens of the Lower End n'nd a con
j tract bricklayer, will get into the race,
i ® Buflington. of this city, formerly
|of Gratz, also is in th e contest for Kec
: ister.
For County Commissionerships
Aspirants lor the Republican nomi
nation for County Commissioner are
not coming to the front verv fast
Charles Cumbler, of Highspire, a former
member of the House and at present on
the executive committee of the countv
committee, is after the place at a hot
puce, and equally eager in the race is
John J. Hardest, of this city, former
Register of Wills. Wheu serving in the
latter office he resided in Susquehanna
township. Mr. Hargest. when he re
siled at Island Park, represented the
Fourth ward in City Council, lie is
a brother of former Citv Solicitor
Thomas S. Hargest and an uncle of
William M. Hargeat. Deputy Attorney
General. There will be others after
this nomination for County Commis
sioner, these posts being considered
among the choicest plums on the po
litical tree.
For the nomination for District At
torney the present occupant of that"re
sponsible position, Michael E. Stroup
of Harrisburg, formerly of Elizabeth
ville, will likely haye no opposition. He
has made a painstaking and efficient
District Attorney and his renomination
is conceded by many other Republican
lawyers.
Benjamin Booser, of Ijondonderry,
former clerk in the County Treasurer's
office, will be a candidate for Director
of the Poor, making the claim that the
Lower End is entitled to the nomina
tion, but the friends of former Alder
man Harry A. Hoppes, of the Fifth
ward, an old soldier with a fine record,
will back him in the race.
The Democratic Aspirants
On the Democratic side of the fence
there are just as many candidates for
the offices, yet you might think
they would fight shy of a contest in
view of results on last November 3.
The fact is some of them are thinking
—only thinking—of forming a fusion
with the Washington party, and others
are not, for it is argued," "if we got
it in the neck so badly when he fused
with the Bull Moosers'at the last elec
tion, how badly will we get it by fus
ing with the fragments of that
party! - ' There is no answer to the
conumdrum.
•Tohn H. Eby, the present Democ
ratic County Commissioner, would like
to be the Democratic nominee for
Sheriff, and his Lykens fellow citizens
are back of him. Mr. Hby was elected
a county commissioner on a one-term
platform and for that reason will not
again be a candidate for county com
missioner. Sheriff is about his s'ize, he
says. John H. Malonev, the Twelfth
ward worker -and real estate man, who
marched so proudly at the nead of his
West End Democratic legion during
the last campaign, also is in the rim
ing for Sheriff and his friends say he
will make a fine run.
Three Democrats have thus far indi
cated a wish to be made the candi
date for Recorder. Dr. C. Albert Frit
i-bey, brother of the former Mayor, is
one of the aspirants. Dr. C. Albert was
a delegate to the Democratic National:
convention in Baltimore and at the re
quest ot the leaders of the Keorgani/.-
er faction stood by Wilson for the j
Presidential nomination to the end. j
When Wilson was made President, Dr.
Fritehey, acting on the promise made
to him that great should be the reward
of he who stood by Woodrow Wilson

master of Harrisburg. but "Bert'' was
turned down cold and didn't even get
a look-in for any thing in the gift of
the Reorganiaers. He is strong the
county over.
Fred h. Morgenthal. of the Twelfth
ward, who was a member of Select
Council, and is a leading torch in the
West End Democratic Club, also is a
candidate, and Howard W. .Jones, pres
ident of the Central Democratic Club,
hopes to run and be elected to compen
sate him for his disappointment in the
last election. It is said that both
Morgenthal and Jones were booked for
nice jobs under McCormick had the
latter been elected Governor.
Deiker Wants Treasurersliip
For County Treasurer only one Dem
ocrat has thus far appeared and he is
George C. Deiker, of the Eighth ward.
For Register of Wills the most ac
tive candidate is Roy Danner, of Sus
quehanna township, the present Regis
ter. And, strange to say, his most ac
tive opponent is Mr. Rubendahl, the
present Deputy Register, a Millersburg
citizen. Rubendahl is county chairman l
of the Keystone party and vice chair-1
man of the Democratic County Commit- j
tee. He was originally a Republican,!
then jumped to the Keystone party,!
then to the Democratic party, making j
the latter change in order that he could
get after the Millersburg postoffice. If
he is not made postmaster he intends
to make a hot fight for the nomination |
for Register, so Danner would better
get busy right now.
The contest for the Democratic nomi
nation for County Commissioner is go
ing to develop some clever politics.
Harry C. Wells, the present Sheriff, j
with a big acquaintance in every towu-j
ship and precinct, would like to have
the nomination. He was a member of!
Select Council, served as City Assessor.!
being elected over one of the tnos't pop
ular Republicans in the city, and his ad
ministration of the Sheriff's office has
been marked by -courtesy and ability.
■Samuel TavloT, present Jury Commis
sioner. is also a candidate and proposes)
to make a lively canvass which has al
ready begun. Albert Gardner, of the
Ninth ward, former Select Councilman,!
will also put up a light for the honor.;
Bartrnm Shelley, of Steeltou, will 1
be a candidate and is being urged by
friends in many parts of the county. Dr.
D. W. Shaffner, of Enhaut, at present !
physician at the county almshouse, once
more will enter the lists. lie was a
candidate about twelve years as>o but
was defeated by William Lauman. He
thinks he is in it this time.
Saussaman to Oppose Stroup
TOY District Attorney the Democrats
have a candidate iu the person of Har
ry B. Saussaman, of the Eighth ward.
Mr. Saussaman was nominated for the
Assembly from the Second Dauphin dis
trict this year, but he thought fusion
was a good thing and he withdrew to
let the Washington party candidate
have the Democratic party support,
which demonstrated that Mr. Saussaman
