thousand shares each. The cittorney
general believes that the same ob
jections apply to that arrangement
as applied to the original suggestion
of the Union Pacific that the South

pro rata among the stockholders of
the Union Pacific. That suggestion
was disapproved by the supreme
court. The attorney general de
clined to indicate what would be the
government's course in case the
court at St. Louis upheld the sug

In accepting a re-election to the
office of speaker, Champ Clark ad
dressed the house of representatives
as follows:
"Profoundly grateful for re-election
to the speakership, the highest
honor which you can bestow, I am
proud that it was preceded by a
unanimous nomination and is accom
panied by the personal friendship
and good wishes of all the members
without regard to political affilia
tions. "Your indorsement of my conduct
during my first term in this high
station by giving mo a second is more
precious than rubies. I hope to dis
charge the important, delicate, and
difficult duties of the position with
absolute impartiality, and to the
satisfaction of members and fair
minded people.
"Whatever measure of success I
achieved as speaker in the Sixty
second congress was due largely to
the courtesy, kindness, and general
good feling of members toward each
other and toward the chair. For our
own benefit, and for the welfare of
the country, may the same course be
pursued in the present congress. By
reason of the increased membership
it will be even more important than
hitherto. Therefore, I most cordially
invite the co-operation of all mem
bers in maintaining order and in
the dispatch of business to the end
that free institutions may be
strengthened and perpetuated.
"As this congress is to be known
in history by works rather than
words, I am ready to take the oath,
and ask Representative Talbott to
administer it."
An Associated Press dispatch
says: Secretary Bryan dispatched
identical letters to the governors of
states which have acted favorably
upon the constitutional amendment
providing for tho direct election of

secretary suggested prompt notifica
tion in order that he may Issue the
usual formal notice of the adoption
of the seventeenth amendment.
The new aenato abolished the
luxurious bath rooms in the sonate
office rooms. The senate barber will
be tho next to go.
John B. Henderson, former United

The WMte Combination Car
The Most Remarkable Car Ever Made. It is a Touring Car and Motor Wagon of the First Grade All in One,
Why We Built This Practical,
Complete Car.
THE automobile business has now reached tho
point where sentiment has given way to reason.
The earliest designs of cars followed the model of
horsedrawn vehicles. Then came the present design,
with eugine in front, and seating in a carriage body 4,
5, or 7 people, according to size and price. But this
type, now so common, has no provision for any extra
passengers or even light baggage On the other hand
there are many times when you drive alone or with only
one passenger, but the big empty tonneau you find use
less for any practical purposes, because of the fixed,
impractical carriage body. This condition of affairs
with thousands of owners has made a place for the
White Combination Car.
t
A Luxurious, High Grade Automobile,
it is Still Practical and Economical.
If you own an automobile you appreciate this con
dition at once. If you do not, it will confront you in
the near future. Good as it is, any ordinary Touring
car is an expense a luxury. You enjoy the exhilara
tion of its speed and the easy way it shortens distances.
But you grumble at its uselessness for any sort of
practical work, as you jog to town in your loaded
Wagon behind slow moving horses, and think of its
powerful engine, so capable of work, lying idle at home.
And there never was a touring car that could take, in
one load, a merry party such as filled the big spring
wagon until the Nine Passenger White was made.
This car does the work and play of all your wagons
and touring car combitied, and lasts longer than any.
Its Design, Power and Equipment
The lines of this car are distinct. It Is a departure
from the touring car models, while in its grace and
finish it dqes not resemble a motor truck. It has a
wheel base of 120 inches, 2yA)j, inch tires and a per
fectly balanced chassis. This gives the greatest riding
comfort and makes it as easy to operate as a light road
ster. It is driven by the famous White, long stroke, 30
h. p. quiet engine, appreciated the world over for its
economy of fuel, its dependable power and durability.
Even when fully loaded this car will pans most cant on
the level, and will easily make hills that other cars can
not climb at all. There is ample room on the driving
seat for two and each of the two seals in the wagonbox
comfortably hold three. These are roomy and comfortable
and are amply cushioned 7oith the best finished leather.
When desired, one or both of these seats can easily bo
removed by one person in a couple of minutes, and the
space utilized for baggage, freight, produce or anything
you want in a compartment C ft. 10 in. long, 43 in. wide,
5 ft. high from floor to top, with side boards and tail
fiece 14 in. high. This serviceability does not affect
ts qualifications as a high grade automobile. Every
fmrtof the car its power plant, chassis, springs, wheels,
amps, top and curtains, body and seat fittings are the
result of the highest type of workmanship and en
gineering ability, and the very best materials as in all
other White cars, which are second to none in tho
world.
Thia is the Car You Actually Need.
Whether you own an automobile or pot, this la tho
car you need, the car you have unconsciously wished for
the car you would buy could you see it and have it
demonstrated. Fill in coupon below today.
