The Eiglit-Cylinder Cadillac enjoys a

Each year has seen the Cadillae be
come more and more "the car which is
bought, not because its price is what it is
but because the car itself is whai? it is.
It is the choice of the buyer who can
easily afford any car, no matter what its
price but who recognizes the advantage
of Cadillac ownership
dnd
that he cannot obtain the same advan
tages in any other car, no matter what
price he pays.
It is likewise the choice of the buyer
who would prefer to pay less for a car,
but lie also realizes that only in highest
quality can complete satisfaction be ob
tained.

[From Clifford Thome's Address to
Keokuk Shippers Yesterday.!
The strategic value of being lo
cated close to the heart of produc
tion and close to the center of con
sumption on the American continent
is gradually sinking into the con
sciousness of the business men of
this nation. Already our greatest fi
nanciers have grasped this fact. Two
of our strongest financial institutions
In the United States are the Stand
ard Oil Co., and the United States
Steel corporation. Where did the
United States Steel corporation lo
cate its new steel plant, the largest
in. the world? They selected Gory,
Ind., a point just outside of Chicago,
a point in the Mississippi valley.
When the Standard Oil company
established what are said to be the
greatest refineries in the world, they
selected Whiting, Ind., another point
just outside of Chicago, and Sugar
Creek, just outside of Kansas City,
Mo., both points being located in the
Mississippi valley.
The largest corn products manufac
turing plant in the world Is located at
Argo, I1L This belongs to the Cora
Products Refining company, and is a
part of the property belonging to the
glucose trust. The greatest independ
ent glucose manufacturing establish
ment in the world is located on the
Mississippi river.
This noon in the building of S.
Ham ill Co., I looked into three states,
Iowa, Illinois and Missouri. Within
the boundaries of those three states
we find the following:
The center of the number of farms
In the entire United States.
The center of the total area in
farms.
The center of improved acreage.
The center of farm values.
The center of corn production.
The center of wheat production.
The center of oat production.
The center of six cereals produc
tion.
The center of grain farm income.
We are today in the very heart of
the nation which produces the food
product for the American nation.
The Center of Consumption.
Next in importance to being lo
cated ?lose to the center of produc
tion, it is essential to be located close
to the center of population, or in oth
er words, close to the center of con
sumption.
For a century the center of popula
tion has been moving steadily west
ward. It is headed for the Mississip
pi valley. Some of those in this
room today will live to see the cen
ter of population In the United States
located on the Mississippi river, it
will strike the Mississippi at some
point a little south of Hannibal. This
forecast is based upon the informa
tion contained In the following, table
which shows the constant steady
westward movement of fhe center of

Fighting Amid Flames.
[By Wilbur S. Forrest, United Press
Staff Correspondent.]
DUBLIN, April 29.—Amid roaring
flames that threatened to sweep this
city of more than half a million in
habitants, British troops and Sinn
Fein rebels engaged in a furious
hand-to-hand struggle until an early
hour yesterday.
The rebels, routed by the govern
ment troops, scurried away as dawn
broke upon the blackened ruins of
Sinn Fein strongholds in the heart ot
Dublin. In their flight they were
mowed down by Maxims and rifle
fire and lost heavily. It Is now esti
mated that more than 100 persons
were killed, or are missing as the
result of the four days of street
fighting.
The military apparently are now
in contral of the situation though the
disorders are not yet completely
quelled. A ring has been thrown
around the rebel forces who seem to
be disheartened by their failure to
arouse a general uprising through
out Ireland. Late Thursday night
as the troops began closing in, the
rebels started numerous fires in the
heart of the city. They evidently
planned to start a great conflagra
tion. hoping to escape in the resulting
confusion.
Troops were rushed into the THaz
ing portion of the city with instruc
tions to extinguish the flames and

thirty-five miles. During the nex£
twenty years it moved approximately
125 miles. The center of manufac
tures has moved along a tone lying
between the fortieth and forty-first
degree of latitude.
For these reasons, before the twen
tieth century closes, I believe the
enter of manufacture will be on the
Mississippi river between Keokuk
and Burlington.
Traditions now growing old and
faint and far away still hover about
the classic shores of the Mississippi.
Tales of chivalry and bravery lend a
romantic charm to the stately Father
of Waters. There was a. compact be
tween the Sacs and Fox and Iowas
that if a member of one tribe should
kill one of another tribe he should be
delivered up to the latter tribe. One
time, along about the year 1819, a Sac
brave killed an Indian belonging to
the lowas. According to the agree
ment a party of Sac Indians went to
get their offending member who had
committed the muraer. They founU
him ill and his brother offered his
own life in his stead. According to
custom, as he approached the lowas,
he bravely went forward, singing his
death song. The body of Sac braves
who had accompanied him part way
and now that he was delivered over
to the Iowas, presently were amased
to see him returning alive, riding a
horse and leading another one. His
noble act of self-sacritfce for his
brother won the hearts of the enemy
and they sent him back home with
presents. This tale of Indian chivsu
ry rivals the legend of Damon and
Pythias in charm.
The Wonderful Valley.
The Indians on the west side of the
Mississippi became anxious to wage
war against the whites as the fol
lowers of Black Hawk Were doing.
This was against Keokuk's Judgment.
Finally the far-sighted old chieftain
told his men that he would lead
them against the whites on one condi
tion that "we first put our wives Bnd
children and old men gently to sleep
in that slumber that knows no wak
ing this side of spirit lShd, for we
go upon the long trail which has no
turn."
Dr. Sabln tells us of an old tradi
tion that when Jacques Cartier dis
covered the St. Lawrence. & chief said
to him:
"Still farther toward the setting
sun is another great river wliich
flows to the land from which the
sweet winds ot the southwest brings
us health and happiness and where
there is neither cold nor Borrow.**
In 1835. De Tocqueville, a man fa
miliar with the Rhine and the stately

kill all &ina Felners who opposed
I their work. They had scarcely begun
work when they were subjected to
fusillades from the roofs of down
town buildings.
There followed a battle that for
picturesque features eclipsed any
thing seen on the European war
fronts. Blasts of smoke and flame
hid the buildings in the hands of the
Sinn Feiners from sight, rolling away
a moment later disotosing groups
of men, standing bolt upright on
the roofs, firing down on the govern
ment troops below.
It was reckless work. The figures
of the Sinn Feiners lined against the
background of darkness by the leap
ing tongues of flame, made them
easy targets. One after another of
the rebels was picked off by the gov
ernment troopers, firing from the
shadows of the streets.

One Hundred Kilted.
DUBLIN, April 28. (Delayed.)—
One hundred persons have been kill
ed or are missing as the result of
street fighting in Dublin since the
rebel outbreak began Monday after
noon.
It is believed that the military now
has the situation in band. Officials
admit, however, that it will be dif
ficult to dislodge the rebels from
their heedtruarters, the general post
offlce. a substantial structure, well
fitted for use as a temporary fort.
The dead include many civilians
picked off 'by Sinn Fein snipers and
some women and children. It has
been ascertaihed that the rebel
forces are -composed entirely of Sinn
Fein adherents. Both Lady Wim
bom and Lady Anderson are safe.
