Our village has been lost to the
public for some time. But we have
not been sleeping all this time, we
have been studying the cotton problem

five cents to living maximum, but
find it too hard for us, and resolve
that we will raise all we can and try
and burst the market, and also to de-
crease the market value of candidates
But we intend to stand by our Wor-
wick Clark and give him a rousing
majority.

The prediction of J. }. Hill that by the
year 1900 a barrel OF -four will 90 to any
part of the country for less than it can
by water, is within the bounds of reason.
BY that time electricity will be the mo-
tive power OF all the railroads in the
country and continuous lines Of railways
from the Atlantic to tho Pacific will be
the rule and not the exception. Trans
portation by rail is becoming cheaper as
interest on money becomes less. Free
silver coinage will be established through
out the civilized world by the year 1900,
money will be cheaper. interest less and
transportation charges reduced to the
minimum. With a comparatively cost.
less motive power and cheaper money all
freight will he moved by rail in the year
1900.

The Problem of Aerial Navigation.

In the absence of any governmental or
concerted effort the Cosmopolitan Maya
zine has determined to attempt the SOlu-
ton of the problem of aerial navigation,
and under its direction a series of expert
ments will be made which it is hoped
will be brought to a satisfactory conclu-
sion.
Unquestionably, the greatest mechan-
ical problem unsolved is that of aerial
navigation. When one co nsidcrs the far
reaching effect which it would have upon
the civilization of the age, and the bene-
fits which would accrue to mankind, the
wonder is that the affair has not been ere
this seriously studied by some of the gov
|ernmentso of the world. The Cosmopolitan
does not enter lightly upon the undertak-
ing. A portion o. the plans to be put into
execution were submitted to the French
government by a member Of the Cosmo-
politan staff as long ago rs 1861. There
are undoubtedly great difficulties in the
way. but the attempt will be steadfastly
pursued by the Cosmopolitan under the
direction Of the ablcst scientists whose
aid can be obtained until success is Sc
cured, even if it has to be carried on
through a series Of years.
No patents will be applied for 10 the
result Of Inventions made. II SUCCESS
crowns the work the result will belong
TO the public.
Thomas \. Edison, in response 10 an
offer by The Cosmopolitan of 300 per
hour for services in consultation. said.
This matter is Of so great interest to
the public that | freely give my services
without pay-and the use OF my labora-
tory too, II you need it for experiments
The services of Prof. King of philadel-
phia. who has made more than 300 as
tensions and is recognized as the the
most experienced Ii ing aeronaut, have
been engaged as adviser in practical
aeronautics. The supervision IF the en-
ginecring WORK and mechanical cunstruc-
ton has peer intrustcd to Capt. Lewis

Plans and suggestions will bc gladly
welcomed from all sources and due

The Cosmopolitan offers $500 in prizes
for three essay upon aerial navigation:

suggesting the best methods of accom-
plis:!ing the navigation OF the air.

THE OHIO ~GERRYMANDER.

The bill of Senator Carpenter OF the
Ohio legislative assembly provides for
redistricting that state upon lines which
will give the republicans seventeen OF its
twenty-one congressman. The provis-
ions of the bill are SO glaringly outrage
Gus that it is said Gov. Mckinley, Sena-
tor Sherman, and the more respectable
portion of the republican press of that
state unite in condemning it. Gov. Nc
kinley's OPPOSITE n to it can find ex-
preston only in words as the constitu-
ton of Ohio does not give her governor
the veto power. Therefore il the repub-
licans in the Ohio legislature feel dis
posed to enact the Carpenter bill into
law there is no earthly power to prevent
them from exercising their W sweet
will in the matter.
There is. however. one consideration
which will prevent the passage of the
measure and that is the fear of the PEG
pie. Ohio is a republican state. There
is 10 question about that. But be il re-
publican ordomocratic the people Of Ohio
or Of any other state in the union will
not silently acquiesce in the preparation
of such 4 palpable injustice to the mi
nority az the Carpenter bill contem-
plates. The desire to sec something
like fair play in political as well DIS in
other matters is pronounced among the
average men of the day. And when a
great wrong is committed against a
minority by an arbitrary majority they
are very apt to emphasize their disap-
prevail at the polls. 1t is the fear of this
dlsapproval by the people that will re-
strain the republican majority in the
Ohio Legislature from gerrymandering
that state as provided in the Carpenter
bill. The bill will be killed.

i LAND OFEICE. FiElSE.

The attention of Montana's rcprescn-

the pressing needs of Northern Montana

the desire Of occupants Of lands TO OBJ

Of doing this without an expenditure Of
money which many are unable to make,
urgently cali for immediate action at the
congressional end Of the line.
Great Falls asks for nothing unrcason-
able in asking for the establishment Of
IA land Office here. Many have been To-
Gated at places throughout the west
where the prospects for a large business
were not nearly so tiattering as they are
in the vicinity Of Great Falls. The Office
would not only be self sustaining, but
would yield a handsome annual return to
the government from the sale Of mineral
grounds which otherwise may not be
patented for years to come. As a purely
business proposition the government
should lose no time in establishing Il

The very recent failure Of an eastern
tinplate importing firm discloses the fact
that it still has on hand over 100000
worth OF tinplate which was brought
into the country before the tinplate
schedule OF the Mckinley tariff took
effect. 1t was imported in anticipation
of the rise in its price which the in
creased duty brought about but there
were such immense quantities of the
article imported for the anticipated rise
that all importers could not unload in
time to save themselves and some had
to 90 under. Too much money tied up
