sible to make Orange the brightest, best, faires
and busiest city on the Gulf coast of Teras.
The editor of the Leader has received an es-
pecial invitation to be present at the forma
opening of the Plaza Hotel in Port Arthur next
Monday,
as the guest of Editor Stump, of the
Port Arthur News. We are going to take out
a little more life insurance, bid an affectionate
farewell to wife and children, and accept the
invitation—so watch out for us Stuinp.-
Orange leader.
The News is more or less accustomed to Win
on the look-out for sudden visitations. Stil
we must admit that Ford “went some” while
he was here—whether he got back in Orange in
good shape or not.—Port Arthur News.
Ves, we “
went some,” all right, and reached
home in fairly good shape, but oh, the after ef
tects. The editorial head aches amazingly to-
day, our brain is in a whirl, we feel like we had
lost the last friend we had on earth, we can’t
*ven give a pleasant smile to a man when he
■oiikk into the'office and we are pretty gener-
illy “done up.” Don’t know what would have
iiappened to us if we had imbibed any of tha;
Port Arthur fire water.
S. K. Nicks, a son of Judge W. P. Nicks, of
YVoodville, and brother of the late A. K. Nicks,
who was recently murdered by a negro near
Newton, has broken into the editorial harness

We sincerely trust that his fondest hopes may

GASOLINE VS. ALCOHOL.
Results of Tests Made By the Geolo-
gies' Survey.
A gallon of denatured slcohol can
be made to do the same amount of
work in an engine as a gallon of gas
oline; more-over the alcohol doc* not
produce smoke and is less liable to
yield obnoxious odors, but the lower
price of gasoline makes it the cheap-
er fuel These conclusion*, based on
2.000 comparative tests of the two sub
stances a* engine fuels, are given in
Bulletin No. 392 of the United States
Geological Survey. R. M. Strong, the
author of the bulletin, briefly de-
ribes the tests but discusses the
more important result* at some length
The tests formed part of the investi-
gation of fuels now being carried on
by the Survey, To determine the re
lativc efficiency and economy of gas-
oline it was compared with denatured
alcohol. In this comparison not only
the heating values of the two fuels
but their adaptability to engine use
and the .ects of variations in fuel
quality and in the principal operating
condition*—such as load, fuel supply,
and time of ignition—were carefully
studied. Tests were made with gaso-
line and alcohol in the same engine
and repeated in other engine* of ap-
proximately the same siae (10 and
horsepower) and the same piston
peed, with different degrees of com-
parison, different methods of govern-
ing, aiu|* different combustion.

should choose to occupy such a re-
actionary position and nse consider-
able space in its editorial column week
after week in an attempt to criticise
and belittle the endeavor of these
men it is scarcely dignified for a
periodical to use such abusive lan-
gaugc as calling the advertising mat-
ter of the congress "natural human
gas belched from Washington."
We heartily disagree with our
worthy contemporary on this point,
for we consider the advertising matter
and statements issued from the office
of the Southern Commercial Congress
dignified, well worded pleas for a
greater self-appreciation on the part
of the Southern state* and appropriate
material for making known to the
world the unparalleled progress the
South is making. W'c do not con
aider the earnest and clearly defined
view* of the managing director of the
congreas as "natural human gas" any
more than the splendid editorial* we
find in the Manufacturer* Record.
It scents to us that both are serving
a most useful purpose and sorely there
is no reason why they should con
flier.
The work of the congress is such
that it will in no way hurt either the
prestige or the business of any ex
isting agency engaged in advertising:
in the South, and we sincerely hope
that the coming convention will be
an unqualified success. We believe
n the old saying that "When a thou-
sand baker* meet in convention

learns how. to make better bread," and
