make good and great President.
Besides be has back Of him much
that is best In our traditions and
history. The platform upon which
he stands is not platitudinous-it is
sound timber, every plank. There
will be no compromise with crime.
No Paul Morton will be whitewashed,
no political criminal or scalawag ap-
pointed TO office. No statistics will
be tempered with till they tell a
tale such as parties in exigiencies
call for. The divisions, bureaus and
departments will not be maze to
suOserve partisan purposes, as, alas,
they have too often been mace to
do under others.
These, then, are the main features
of the man. Whether ne wins or
loses ne will go down to mis- grave a
great American, splendid specimen
OF what was thought of when Lowell
wrote the great ode in which he
referred to Lincoln as the first
American. Luckily the land is no
longer dependent upon one man, hov
ever great. 1t is to go on, and on
and on, irrespective of its Presi-
dents. The fathers, faithful to
their trust, planted the tree of lib
erty so deep that its roots run out
into all parts of the earth. The
worlds powers will never be able
70 pull 1t up. In all our past there
was no more powerful, no nobler
personality, than the great Nebras-
kan, William Jennings Bryan.

FLYING MACHINE A MARVEL.
Wright Brothers Aeroplane Glides
Like a Bird in Secret Flight.

MANETO. n c.. May 9-Guarding
themselves against general observation.
and in the presence of only four members

per correspondent, the Wright brothers
made ten successful aerial flights yester-
day in their flying machine from Kill
Devil hill. 1t was a marvellous perform
ance, and demonstrated beyond the ques-
ton of doubt that they were able to direct
and control the aeroplane they have de-
signed at from twenty to fifty feet above
the surface of the ground-Someth hing that
no dirigible balloon ever has attempted
to accomplish. The nearness to the earth
was not because the machine could not go
higher. but to- prove that IL could main
tain a steady flight at an elevation that
would be impossible with a gas bag
The elder Of the brothers said that If
it had been desired the machine could
have been driven to such height in the
heavens that it would be lost to sight.
Yesterdays test was simply to try out the
steering gear, which does not yet work TO
the complete satisfaction of the inventors

the experiments to a testing of the Stee--
