AERIAL

THE following information is pub
lished for the %edlfication of our former
townsman, John Campbell, the civil
engineer, If he still be in the land OF
the living:
A bill was introduced into the house,
Just before the adjournment for the
holiday season recess, which is OF con-
siderable interest to inventors, because
Of the precedent it sets. The bill was
introduced by Mr.. Baker, of New
Hampshire, and provides that the gov
shall expend $50. 600 upon the
development Of aerial navigation.
Twenty-thousand dollars is to be placed
at the disposal Of Prof. Langley, to
enable him to continue his experiments
in aerial navigation, and to construct
one or more of his aeroplanes; 500, 900
to James S. Cowden, of Virgins, to
enable him to continue his experiments
IN aerial navigation and the anne sun
for the war department, for the pur.
pose of experimenting along the same
line with a view of adopting a flying
machine for war purposes. 1t is pre-.
sumed that the wal department will
experiment with any machine submit
ted to it which seems practicable.

officially stated his position. II Is pre-
sumed that he will deal with this phase
OF the question In bis message. 1t ID
also reported that he will obtain an
opinion from the attorney general, as
to the constitutional powers of the
executive and the congress, In respect
of their powers to recognise the inde-
pendence OF a foreign sovereignty.
Attorney General Harmon has not
made an official statement, but as is
known, he agrees with Secretary Olney
that this Is purely an executive power,
and that the president Is not bound by
the action Of congress in such a matter.
The opinion Of the attorney general,
will in q measure, 1t Is hoped, Offset
the effect Of the opinion Of able law
yers, who have argued against the
opinion Of Mr.. Olncy.

THE OHIO -sENATORsHIP.

The report from Ohio that a cam
paign has been commenced by the
Foraker wing Of the republican party
to secure the election of Charles l..
Kurtz to the United States senate
promises q very lively fight. All who
are interested in sustaining the stand
ard of republican craftsmanship, will
hope that this movement may sustain
complete and even overwhelming de-
feat.
The proposition to supplant a SEN
ator Of the reputation and capabilities
Of John Sherman by a managing poll
tician of merely local standing and I'M
proved ability, bears a strong kinship
to the movement in Illinois to elect a
mere ward politician to the seat for
merly occupied by Douglass, Trdmbull,
Davis and Logan. We can readily
concede to Mr.. Kurtz more respecta.
bilIty OF character and moro mental
ability than are possessed by the al.
dsrman whom the jobbing faction Of
Illinois propose for the senate. But,
on the other hand, the proposition that
Mr.. Kurtz shall displace q senator
whose position in our political history
is equal to that Of the greatest sena'
tors Illinois has had, makes the Ohio
attempt a little the more fragrant ofthe
two.
There is good reason to hope that
this development Of the Foraker. Bush
nell program will unite the friends Of
President Mckinley and Sherman in
such measures as will relegate that
element permanently to the back.
ground.

to be lynched If taken back, and colored men
in various cities of Montana have held mass

to keep johnson within this state.

SOCIALIST COLONY STARTED.

beginning In washington.
WIIATC0M Wash, Dec. 1S.--(Special)-
At lnst the socialists have made beginning
in their colonizng work on the Pacific coast,
though this beginning is not under the direc-
tion OF Eugene Debs. The first colony
planted is by the Brotherhood Of the Co
operative Commonwealth. which was or
ganlzed by Debs, but dropped when he ecu
verted his railway union into the Social
Democracy at Chicago. This brotherhood
has established colony about fourteen miles
south of this city on the edge of Skagit
county, and unless all signs fail the settle
ment is destined to grow to representative
proportions.
The new colcny has crept in almost un-
heralded, and by skillful business negotiations
has obtained title to a valuable tract of land.
1t is tract that is not only inherently
valuable, but is peculiarly adapted to serve
the experimental purposes OF the socialists
in the way OF agricultural and colonial life.
There are already eleven families and
thirty single men on the ground, all living
in a newly-erected colony house and at work
clelring up u 2S0-acre farm that was bought
for them last spring by an advance agent at
$40 per acre.
The men who are on the ground already
are from many different states, mainly from
the praiIies, and they came west 10 prairie
scbconers. They say that many lccessions to
.Leir population are en- route from the east.
At the head of their colony is a member
elected by a majority vote, and he can be
| deposed at any time in the same way. The
work is all common, und the property is the
cOmmunitys. The members receive 40 cents
per day from the parent Organization till
