Isaac Stephenson, the new Senator
from Wisconsin, doesn't lack much OF
being Democrat. He has announced
his platform and is in favor of thor
Ough tariff revision, reducing duties
wherever possible without reducing
wages of labor; of strengthening
the interstate commercial law, of
restraining rail roads, of strengthen
ing the antitrust laws and impos-
ing additional penalties, of Federal
income and inheritance taxes and of
the election of Senators by popular
vote. That platform reads like
Bryan might have written it..

WIRELESS TELEPHONY.
Practicable Range Only About Ter
Miles at Present.


Wireless telephoning has been max,
ing steady progress of late, although
it's achievements are still far behind
those of wireless telegraphy.
The range of practicable wireless
telephony is as yet only ten miles OF
so.
One reason for this, says the Review
of Reviews, is the feebleness of the
electric currents used in telephone
conversation over wires as compared
with those that are capable of being
used in telegraphing either with OF
without wires.
Telephone conversation has never
yet been successfully carried to dis
lance of 100 miles of submarine cable
under the ocean. The limiting tele,
phonic range over such cables has
been about sixty miles. Consequently
wireless telephony does not have to be
carried to many times it's present
range in order to beat wire telephony
on submarine cables.
The conditions are, however, very
different over land. Wire telephony
is commercially practised up to dis.
tances of 1900 miles, and is capable
of being extended by sufficient ex,
penditure of money On the wires to
$500 miles, or even more.
Wireless telephony has, therefore, tc
be vastly extended in range in order tc
beat the record of wire telephony over
land.
