The Fort Myer Tests.

1t is possible that the Baldwin dirigible
balloon, which is to be tested today at
Fort Myer. may develop qualities of such
rare value as to demonstrate material
progress toward solving the problem of
aerial navigation. But there is justifiable
skepticism regarding the practicability of
developing the gas bag device to a high
point of usefulness. Until Ii can be made
sufficiently rigid to resist the eccentric
currents of the air and al the same time
make sufficient speed to enable 1t to rival
railroad trains 1t will remain a toy or at
best a means of military observation of
limited scope. Capt. Baldwin in discuss
ing his machine has declared that IL he
could make his balloon rigid, with the
propeller shaft extending through its
horizontal axis. he could maintain it In
almost any conditions and could equip ii
with a propeller large enough to develop
very high speed Possibly this will be the
next stage Of evolution. Meanwhile at
tention Is concentrated more keenly upon
the aeroplane as possibly the germ of the
true flying machine. The ideal of the
aviator is a device in which he can rise
in any condition of the air and go to any
desired point at a high rate of speed. land
safely and return to the starting point

Bishop Brent's Final Refusal.

Bishop Brent's second declination of the
offer to head the local Episcopal diocese
is couched In terms which admit of no
possibility of misunderstanding and leave
no hope of reconsideration. His visit to
this country has resulted in his assurance
that his health Is sufficiently improved to
justify him In continuing his work in the
Philippine Islands after a brief course Of
treatment. Those who know Bishop Brent
personally have felt from the beginning
that only the positive conviction that the
climate of the islands would prove in
furious to him could possibly lead to his
acceptance of the Washington bishopric
This placed the District churchmen In the
somewhat embarrassing position of well
coming his change of decision on the
score of his i'll health Yet they are
doubtless today of the one mind that in
deciding to return to the Philippines per-
manently. now that his health is in the
way of restoration, Bishop Brent has
acted the part Of the devoted worker in
the cause of Christianity for which he
is so eminently fitted. These alterations
Of hope and disappointment have, at all
events, demonstrated that as far as the
man and his qualities are concerned the
Washington diocese chose wisely in nam
ing Bishop Brent for ats head. It must
now face the task of choosing one who
shall be worthy successor to both
Bishop Satterlee and Bishop Brent

friends and neighhess will be put on their
enthusiastic behavior. The Buffalo ed
itor was Mr.. Bryan's choice for campaign
manager. and Buffalo democrats should
show appreciation of the honor bestowed
on fellow-citizen and party worker.
And yet there are New York democrats
nervous at the bare suggestion of Mr..
Bryan's presence. They are afraid or
what his presence may suggest TO voters.
Free silver, government ownership of rail-
roads. the initiative and referendum. and
a guarantee of bank deposits. may all rise
to plague the party after Mr.. Bryan has
gone. although he may not have said
word in his speeches on any of the four
subjects. For this reason they are de-
pressed by the announced arrangement,
and would correct it If they could.
These men overlook the fact that Mr..
Bryan is no stranger anywhere now. In
all quarters he and his policies are well
known. What is called Organism cannot
be blinked. Whether Mr.. Bryan is pres
ent or not, wherever campaign issues are
under discussion an understanding exists
as to what. in both general and particu-
lar. Mr.. Bryan's election will mean The

true why not show him with as much

A Bryan Alteration.
Philadelphia Ledger


If the people of Oklahoma choose to
encourage the establishment of specu-
lative banks by a state law guarantee
ing the payment Of all deposits, reliev-
ing the individual bank of it's proper
responsibility, it Is their own affair. Ma
tional banks are organized under a diff
ferent system of laws. which makes
each bank directly responsible for its
own deposits. 1t is clearly outside the
authority of any state to compel ma
tional bank to enter an association to
insure the deposits of all its members,
thus putting a tax upon thrift and good
management for the protection of reck-
less banking. The Attorney Generals
opinion is equally sound in law and as
concerns public policy. Mr. Bryan's idea
to the contrary is one of his alterations
it will be wisest for him not to make any
more conspicuous.

political orator. The crowd at his Madi-
son Square Garden meeting on his return
from Europe was a record breaker In
New York. as elsewhere, a good talker on
his mettle is an interesting man. But in
Mr.. Bryan's case the New York crowd
has never voted as it cheered. Somehow
il has always lost its enthusiasm before
election day.

paign funds and keeping books showing
subscriptions and their uses, will not IL

happy, and insure an honest expression OF
public opinion at the polls. On the con-
trary. there is talk of more money than

Just you dare nominate Gov Hughes!
is the way the sporting element in New
York addresses the republican leaders
Particulars follow in the nature of gen.
eral gossip. Gamblers. 1t is known. are
free spenders. Come easy, go easy, is the
philosophy which governs them on the
money question. And the gamblers, In
New York and elsewhere, are opposed to
Gov. Hughes, and are prepared and dis
posed to fight him. Their weapon being
money. it Is reported that If he runs for
governor again they will contribute from
a half to a million dollars to help defeat
him.
In Ohio and Indiana the temperance
question Is very much In evidence. This
has brought the brewers and the distillers
into the field, and enormous sums are ex-
pected from them for campaign purposes.
They are not SO much interested in the
national contest. Taft and Bryan are
giving them small concern. Their aim is
local control-legisation which will bene-
fit them. and executive sympathy to
match. Their eyes are on Columbus and
Indianapolis. and not Washington.
Now. the point of moment is, If large
sums, or any sums. are offered by these
interests will they be received by cam
paign managers? Is it any worse, any
greater offense against morality or sound
public policy, to buy legislation bearing
upon industries affected by the tariff, or
legislation respecting the currency or rail-
roads. than legislation affecting race track
gambling or drinking saloons? No CAM
paign manager local or national, could
accept such money without knowing its
object and becoming under obligations to
those subscribing it. The transaction
would be as frank as a written contract,
or bill of sale.
proposition Too much of 1t is a positive
evil. We may accredit the leaders of
both parties with sincerity in their pres
ent outgivings on the subject. and good
should come out of them. But let the re-
form be thorough. Let the door be closed
to all who have special objects in view,
and who seek them through liberal money
subscriptions to city, state or national
campaigns.

Visiting Statesmen.

a number of American statesmen are
in Europe, or are sailing. Senator Dan
iel sails today. This would cause no re-
mark except that presidential campaign
is opening, and the political managers
are expecting every man to do his duty.
These men will probably all be home
again before election day. but every day
of absence will count against their full
usefulness after their return. While
abroad they will be out of touch with
home affairs. and will lose just that much
of the spirit of the campaign. Mr..
Bryan and Judge Taft do their travelling
between campaigns.

Forest and City Fires.

The Canadian forest fires which have
caused and are still causing such disas-
trous losses of life and property oddly il
lustrate the eccentrcities of nature. 1t
would seem from this tragedy that the
more widely scattered the population the
more severely it suffers when a conf1a-
grafton RACES. In the Baltimore fire not
a single life was lost, although property
was destroyed to the value of nearly
hundred millions. Yet this fire swept
through the busiest part of a town of
several hundred thousand inhabitants. In
San Francisco the earthquake and fire
combined killed at the highest estimate
no more than fifty people. and there Is
serious doubt whether the total ran above
twenty-five. while the property loss
amounted to possibly 500 100000. In the
Canadian fire. which, according to the lat
est reports. has covered fifty miles and de-
stroyed three towns, it is estimated that
between 500 and 900 people have lost
their lives, with a property loss of about
1O,OOO, 900.
Here, then, are two strongly contrasting
spectacles, of cities burning and of entire
country sides afiame. In the former case,
with conditions theoretically perfect for
the loss Of life. practically no casualties
occur: In the fire In the open men and
women die by the hundreds This. of course.
is because in the case of a forest fire the
people have few means Of escape and
the fire is likely to be of such vast ex-
tent as completely to hem them within
ring of flames. OF course, the later
reports from the Canadian disaster will
throw light upon this phenomenon and
doubtless there will be many tales of suf-
fering, torture, narrow escape and unques-
tionably of heroism.
The cities Of Canada have already moved
to supply the requirements of the stricken
region. If there is need of help from this
side of the border undoubtedly the Ameri-
can people will respond promptly and gen.
erously to any call that may be made
upon them for funds or supplies. In the
succoring of sufferers from disaster. fam
Inc and plague, the people of this country
have always been literally disposed. These
people across the boundary are our neigh
bors. and the United States only awaits
the word that its contributions are re-
quired to send them in Astounding volume.

The Enlargine Membership.

Interest in the fate of the dismissed
West Point cadets wanes before the great
er issue precipitated by the conflicting
statements that have emanated from high
sources recently regarding the case. 1t Is
difficult to trace the affair in all of its
ramifications. What is plainest is the
fact that the President now declares that
he has taken no action in the premises, but
merely awaits the final decision of the
Secretary of War before rendering his
own. The Ananias Club is in danger of
becoming overcrowded. Unless Secretary
Wright has been misquoted he has be-
come eligible for membership, through his
assertion that the President did send his
written approval of the findings of the
West Point court-martial which recon-
mended the dismissal of the cadets in ac-
cordance with the terms of the statutes
but that the President accompanied his
written approval with letter requesting
that the PRONUNCIATION of the order of dis
missal should be delayed. Secretary Loeb
also has placed himself in line with the
portals of the clubhouse by his statement
on the 18th of July that the President had
approved the dismissal of the cadets.
This may all be merely a bubble of
technicalties, but it serves again to DEM
onstrate the danger of dealing lightly
with executive facts. Indeed, by this time
the public has been sufficiently warned
that no man need expect mercy who
spo"ks without the most explicit. written
qua -nteed and sealed authority from the
highest source regarding presidential pur-
poses. performances. promises or PROPOSE
tions. AS for the fate of the cadets, that
is of slight consequence now compared
with the fate of the Secretary of War and
the secretary to the President. Probably
in the confusion of their mixup the cadets
will be quietly slipped back to West Point
and the country will be little If any the
wiser

conditions carefully. He only gives an ex-
hibition when the wind Is favorable and
smooth. Pilot balloons are sent up before
every flight to test the quality of the air.
Thus 1t appears that even the soaring
machine has its we'll defined limitations
along with the gas bag. Perhaps the tests
that will take place at Fort Myer later in
the month with aeroplanes Of different
models will demonstrate that a material
practical advance has been scored in this
class OF apparatus. just as 1t is expected
that the Baldwin balloon will prove its
superiority within its own class
