Some Of the newspapers are doing

the question: What has Mr.. Proctor
done that he should be considered for
the nomination? In answering the
question it should be remembered
that none Of the three candidates has

No opport unity for any spectacular
display or brilliancy Of achievement in
public service has been given In the
past generation or so to any man to
enable him to distinguish himself
above his fellow citizens. In their
several ways, however, each one Of the
gubernatorial candidates has rendered
modest service to the state as the op.

the field of candidates and their

Proctor's modest service has been the
most generally useful Of any.

against railroad domination OF Yer

vantage Of the state.
In these, and varied other ways, Mr..
Proctor has rendered modest public

Havana, April 2s.-Elaborate prep

public. Spanish merchants on Riola

ance that the Cuban army would be
paid. Replying to the generals, Senior
Estrada Palma said he was disposed
to pay the army, but to do SO more re-
sources would be needed than Cuba
now has. He never suspected, he said,
that the list of those to be paid con-
tanned 10000 names, and the estimate

at the fact that no provision had been
made to pension the widows of war

WOULD RIVAL MARC0NI
Uncle Sam Develops New Wireless
Telegraphy System.
EXPERIMENTS ARE A SUCCESS
Professor Fessenden of the Weather
Bureau Has Spent Two Years at
Roanoke island, Va, Work.
ing ON the Problem.

Roanoke Island, N. c., April 2S.-
While the newspapers have been re-
sounding with accounts of the inven-
ton of various wireless telegraph sys'
tens, all of which fall short OF COM
plete practically in some respect, the
United States government has been
quietly at work for the past two years
in perfecting a system Of its own which
it believes has overcome all the Obsta-
Giles and remedied all the defects OF the
other systems.
The system is now essentially COM
plete and has just been tested before
experts of the navy department, who
had no hesitation in pronouncing 1t su-
perior to all other systems and who
will recommend it to the department
for adoption. Early last week General
Greedy, chief Of the army signal serv-
ice, witnessed it's operation, and 1T is
understood that he takes the same
view of it.
The system is to be known as the
Fessenden system. 1t is the invention

weather bureau, and it is Professor
Fessenden who. under the direction of
Chief Willis l.. Moore of the weather
bureau, has for the past two years iso-
lated himself from the world in this re-
mote corner of the seacOast to conduct
the experiments which are now reach
ing a conclusion.
A New System.
1t should be explained that the prin.
cipal feature of Professor Fessenden's
from the other systems, is in the receiv.
ing process. Heretofore it has been be.
lieved that messages by wireless teleg.
raphy, no matter what the system.
could not be received without coherer.
Professor Fessenden conceived the idea
that a receiving instrument could be
constructed vastly more sensitive than
the coherer and that If this could be
done every obstacle in the way OF
making wireless biography completely
practicable for business purposes would
be removed. This instrument, the sue
cessor of the coherer, he calls the
''wave detector."
While the naval officers and the Off
GERS of the coast and geodetic survey
declined to give full expression of
their views in advance Of their official
reports, the following statement is OF
interest as showing their attitude:
I'VE realize that the professors work
has been accomplished. The details had
not been completely worked out, but
there was enough to impress us. The
possibilities are greater than those OF
any other system. The most extraordi
nary thing about it was that Professor
Fessenden employed so little power to
get his results. He employed only a
quarter of an inch spark and got relia'
bic messages over distance of fifty
miles. No coherer would do that short
of two inch spark, employing much
greater power. Then it is more positive
chan the Marconi system in taking code
messages"
