MAKE LEAGUE STRONG
is PLEA OF M'NUTT
SEES A GREAT OPPORTUNITY
FOR DEMOCRACY
Eliminate Paid Machine Politician and
Mass of Party VIII Make Re.
sponse-Prepare for Aug
ust Convention

That the Democratic league make
itself an organization broad enough for
all Democrats to affiliate with, that 1t
provide a home for itself where the
membership would become socially and
politically united, was the plea of Judge
Cyrus F. McNutt at the regular weekly
luncheon of the league at the West
minister hotel yesterday. The attend
ance was large and the subject in
teresting.
Judge McNutt has lived in Los An
geles twelve years and before that
period had long and honorable career
in Indiana politics. He was one OF the
strong men of the western part of the
state and an antagonist to machines at
all times.
That this antagonism is not dead he
showed thoroughly yesterday. for he
said OF all the men to be despised the
one who was henchman of the South
ern Pacific and who called himself a
Democrat was the most detestable.
The presumption is," said Judge Nc
Mutt, that Republican is, organical-
ly, a machine man unless he secures
clean bill of health by Joining the Lin
coin Roosevelt league. 1t may be as
sumed that Republicans are with the
Southern Pacific machine unless they
show they are not guilty. But it is just
the opposite with Democrats. They
are not presumed to be machine
men unless convicted of 1t. l tell
you that for every one Democrat

that he has not and never has had any
affliation with persons interested in
the construction or sale of torpedo
boats.
Motive Was Honest
II testified before the committee and
1 reiterate here" the statement con-
tinues, that my motive in introducing
my resolution calling for an investiga-
tion was the public welfare and that
1 did not act in concert with other per-
sons 1t is true that the immediate
moving cause of my act was my con-
viction that the appropriation bill as
framed in the naval committee would
so restrict the powers of the secretary
of the navy that he would be compelled
to purchase submarine boats of the
electric boat company to the destruc-
ton of competition and 10 the disad-
vantage of the government.
my belief that the methods employed
by the electric boat company which
warranted investigation was of long
standing.
"I am not attempting at this time to
defend myself against charge of
faulty judgment. l would say, now
ever, that l have been informed by
counsel that If he had been permitted
to examine witnesses in the ordinary
way he would have gone directly to
representatives of the Lake Torpedo
Boat company as an obvious source of
information and have asked them to
nut him upon additional lines of in
Quiry."

to that city and Kemper required to
give bonds to insure his presence here
for arraignment.
The men are charged with defrauding
the government by making false af-
fidavits or hiring dummy entrymen or
by swearing that they intended to take
up desert land when they had no in
tention of doing so. 1t is claimed that
they have already taken up all the
land that an individual is permitted to
file upon. 1t is the claim of the gov
ernment that these men have acquired
choice land in the Imperial valley by
fraud, thus keeping out legitimate
homeseekers, and that they owned
water stock which would greatly add
to the value of the lands acquired.
r. H. Ingram, superintendent of the
southern division of the Southern Pa
cific, has been cited to appear In the

indictments returned against the COM
pany for rebating.

Boot Out HireIings
He declared the party had "chaps"
who were of the Goings and Norris

applied to them-the high as well as
the low.

is with us. 1t detests the machine and

men in your organization, gain their
and their cooperation by
true worth and we can triumph with
out hurting anyone except the enemy.
eliminate the paid politicians of the
machine, for their pay usually comes
from the Southern Pacific machine.
We have no use for them. All the
Democrats want is real chance. Make
YOUR doors wider and give all chance
to have voice in the management.
Then you will win"
After the Judge ended Vice President
who presided, stated that
only those men who were known to hold
political relations with public service
corporations were prohibited from
and Judge McNutt agreed
that this restriction was a wise one.
The league was invited to attend the
putting of the Kentucky society 81 EAST

TO GOVERN AERoNAUTIcs.
Prof. Henry Of Weather Bureau Pre-
pares Printed Forms.

Directions to govern persons experiment.
ing in aeronautics are being sent out to
applicants by Prof. Alfred j. Henry of
the United States weather bureau in this
city. They are in printed form. and Prof.
Henry suggests that aero clubs through
out the country obtain and use them.
Corresponding with the observations
Of the meteorological elements made in the
balloon Prof. Henry says, there should
be collected those made simultaneously at
the ground. This can be done by arrang-
ing with the neighboring weather bureau
stations for special readings of the in
struments at the stations to be made dur
ing the hours of the ascension. Many
records in the upper air have been found
of little value for the lack of surface
readings.
The direction and force of the wind at
the surface should be recorded for COM
parison with the speed of the balloon in
it's flight. The remarks on clouds should
include the kind Of cloud near the bal
loon. The temperatures within the cloud
also, particularly at the upper surface
and at the lower surface of the cloud.
are especially valuable. The time of
throwing out ballast or of using the valve
should be recorded.
Copies of this form for each ascension,
it is explained, should be forwarded to
the United States weather bureau. to the
aero clubs and to the journals which are
devoted to aeronauticS.
