THE AIR SHIP.

1t there Is an airship it Is ubiquitous or
else the air is full of 'em. On Saturday
night it was seen everywhere. 1t was in
Green Bay, Manitowoc and Minneapolis.
The people Of Minneapolis viewed the
thing from the tops of buildings having
previously been notified by telegraph
that 1t was headed that way. The lights
are the same IN each case, one white and
one green. The outlines of the aerial
navigator can be seen by some. Marsh
field was particularly favored. The air
ship spent Saturday in the woods at that
place. 1t rose after shutdown "like me-
teor." after having been kept in chains
all day, no doubt After good people
had retired for the night the airshlp be-
gan to manifest itself at many places. 1t
was seen in Maniuowoc, moving IN an err
ratio fashion. Though it's appearance
was simultaneous in various places, the
direction of its movement was always
different. 1t started for Minnesota, but
seems to have reached that place before
it had got fairly under Roadway from the
lake coast.
An amtaeur photographer photograph
ed the thing near Chicago. The proof
that he did 30 Is that three persons saw
him do it." That,of course, puts that mat
ter beyond dispute, just as the man who
descendedfrom the moon proved his claim
by showing the rope by which he descend
ed. The photograph is good one, but ex-
perts say the negative was monkeyedwlth.
Several people in this city saw this
denizen of the air on Saturday night. 1t
must have failed to reach its destlnat ion,
or else made trip around the world in
"a hours, because it put in an appearance
again on Sunday night, G. W. GIffey
made some careful observations on Sun
day blight and is satisfied it. was some
thing else than balloon or star. He
was skepticai to begin with but is now
open to conviction.

HE election of Starkweather as MAYOR
OF Superior position from which he had
been removed by Impeachment some time
ago, is merely symbol of the state OF
unsettled political feeling. What is ex-
tremely popular to-day may be discarded
tomorrow as worthless. There is M
settled political belief among the masses.
ln fact the teaching of recent years has
been IN the direction of subordlnating
principle to the searching for expedients
TO meet some present want. Conviction
is no longer deep or steadfast, and lead
ers with selfish schemes have usurped the
