America. But the lat M. sAhIos-DUh.sI
ter is a Brazilian, and the fact that he
was classed in the race as an Ameri-
can shows the tendency to broaden the
term beyond its customary meaning.
Ordinarily the term American" is
equivalent to ''citizen Of the United
States" but Of recent times Canadians,
Mexicans and even citizens Of South
American countries have been putting
in claims that they, too, are Americans.
M. Santos-Dumont has been 81 good
supposed to have imbibed the pam
American spirit. He has also lived SO
much in Paris and is so much identi-
fed with France that many people
have taken him for Frenchman.
In 1902 M. Santos Dumont made this
statement: "In ten years l firmly ex-
pect that there will be a line of airshins
crossing the Atlantic ocean at such a
rate Of speed and with such degree Of
comfort that the present day ocean
liners, magnificent as they are, will
seem fitted only for freight carriers or
for people in search of health which
comes from making a journey on the
sea-"

now but six years more for the fulfill

The story Of how Mrs. Langtry lost
the favor of King Edward VII when
he was Prince of Wales by playfully
dropping a chunk of ice down his back
at q dinner party has often been told.
But few have heard how Sir Thomas
Upton, who is now in this country try
ing to arrange for another international
yacht race, won his maiesty's gratitude
by somewhat similar performance.

love with the water from infancy up.
When he was six years old he learned
to swim, at seven he had learned to
row, and at twelve he built himself
boat. At fourteen Captain John Carr
taught him how to sail, and Courtney
refers to him as being responsible for
the great interest he has always taken
in aquatic sports. When Courtney was
young man he read in a magazine
of MacGregor,s Rob Roy canoe, and
with q boy friend he set to work to
build one like it. There was no money
and no lumber, but they built the boat
evenings in cellar. He won many
races with that boat, and this was the
beginning of his career as a racer.

BEHIND Time

1t Is stated that Alex Winston re-
fuses to call a meeting of the demo
cratic city central committee until
he sees what the senate does with
the direct primary bill. Local
democrats say the bill in its pres
ent shape, even with an emergency
clause, will not pass in time to be
of service in the coming city cleo
ton. Names of candidates pro-
posed must be filed with the city
clerk 60 days prior to the election.
This would require names to be
filed by March 8, which Is an al
most impossible proposition.
Part of a republican city central
committee are reported favorable
to the direct primary, Chairman
Charles Lund among others.
Some of the city hall officials
who apparently favored direcc
nominations are reported this
morning as privately throwing colo
water on the proposition.

MAY INTRODUCE
RECALL

Councilman Pratt said today that
he might renew or again introduce
an amendment to the city charter
providing for the recall of city
officers.
Several years ago Mr.. Pratt in
troduced an amendment providing
for the recall by the people of any
elective officer of the city govern
ment. At the time Mr.. Pratt was
sat down on and the proposed
amendment was denied considera-
ton by the city council. He ex-
poets the proposed law will receive
the consideration refused it when
previously before the council If in
troduced again.
The recall" system is in force
in Los Angeles. 1t provides for
voting out of office men who have
proven incompetent or dishonest.
The only man who now has a cinch
on his job is the man who holds
office. No matter how bad he may
be he sticks until his term of office
expires. IL the recall law was in
force the people could be in a pc,
sition to demand honesty and
efficiency on the part of its public
servants.

GIVE CREDIT
TO PRATT

Members of the local referendum
league are elated over the initiative
and referendum charter amend
ment introduced in the city council
last Tuesday night. They make no
attempt to conceal their gratifica-
ton with the proposed measure.
Councilman Pratt is credited with
having to great extent been re-
sponsible for the amendment being
proposed at this time aud has con-
sistently advocated the law, having
proposed similar legislation by the
the council several years ago.
Zach Stewart, chairman Of the
referendum league executive COM
mittee, said today that he hoped the
amendment would be submitted to
the people and adopted practically
as it was introduced into the coun-
Gil. He said it was move in the
right direction and would be the
entering wedge for legislation Civ
ing the people a greater part in
their government. He hopes the
council will permit the people to
vote on the proposed amendment
as he fells certain that there will
be no difficulty in securing ma
jority for its adoption.
e. A. Cooney, a leading union la
Dor man, said he was pleased with
the proposed charter amendmen;
and that he and other members OF
the local referendum league woulc
aid in every way possible the en-
actment and approval of the new
law.
Other members of the referen-
dunn league say the time and
money expended in organizing viii!
be fully repaid if the amendment
is concurred in by the council and
is adopted by the people.
