The ranges have it in their pow
er this year to make their influence
in county politics felt. With four
candidates from the ranges, a unit
ed front should be put forth and
every one of them elected. We
pay eighty per cent of the taxes
and are clearly entitled to eighty
percent of the offices. It looks
very much as if the ranges were
coming partly into their own this
year. Everybody boost for the
range men if they can consistently
do so.

DAVID H. Lawrence. one of the
Two Harbors candidates for repre-
sentative of this district has with
drawn from the race for reasons
best known to himself. His with
drawal still leaves four candidates
in the field, Messrs. Hugo, Cong
don and Buck, of Duluth, and Den
mis- Hayes, of Two Harbors. An
effort will again be made at the
next session of the legislature to
have the northern end of the state
re-districted in order to give Cook

THE attention of the reader is
called to the candidacy of Sam Ow-
ems, of Eveleth, for Sheriff. Mr..
Owens is abundantly able to hand
lie the affairs of the office to the Gre
dit of the county. While we admit
that his row is a hard one to hoe,
we feel that no mistake will be made
in nominating Mr.. Owens. A re-
sumo of the situation at present
gives three candidates who are in
the top notches and Mr.. Owens is
among this bunch.

A TRAINING SCHOOL
 FOR SHIPS OF THE AIR
Flying Machines SuppIant Horses on Famous Morris Park Race Track in New York.

New York, Sept. 3O.-CSpecial cor respondence of The Republican)- The navigation of the air has at last become an actual problem in the science of transportation. Like every other development in this field the airship has had to go through a period in which it has been regarded merely as a scientific and expensive toy. attainable only by the rich. The locomative was looked on in this manner at first. and the bicycle and the automobile have successively passed through the same stage. Nat urally the airship, particularly the heavier than air variety, through which the final solution of aerial navigation is expected, has had to pass through the same stages. For various reasons it has had a more difficult course than any of its prede- cessors Its development has been looked upon as being in the hands of a few men, and wealth has been regarded as an absolute requisite.
 Now all this is changed for within the past few weeks New York has not only made experimentation in air navigation possible for persons of small means, but has also seen the incorporation of an aerial travel com pany which plans to carry passengers through the air above the streets of the city just as other means of transportation now do on the ground. Indeed. it is now even claimed that some not distant future date will see the pavements of various city thor oughfares colored in different tones in order that aerial navigators may be able to distinguish easily places in which they may land.
 Of course all this may sound wis ionary. Actually, however, it is not. There is nothing more impossible about it than there was in connection with the phOnOgraph or telephone. And in addition to this the general development of this practical side of flying is now for the first time under way and in this city.
 Up to now this has been in the hands of few men. In this country. and indeed throughout the world, in terest has been largely centered in the Wright aeroplanes, the famous June Bug" of the HammondspOrt group of eXperimenters. and abroad in the machines of Farman, Della grange and a few others. All Of them have had the advantages of eXperi- mentation grounds offered by various governments and the incentive of rich cash offers.
 But now the development of flying has for the first time been made possible for the man of small means. Within a few months this city has seen the organization Of the Aero nautic society. made up of men inter csted in a practical way in aero naUtics, which has for its purpose the furnishing of testing grounds, tool sheds, and all the necessary

1 heavy paraphernalia for experiments 1 in the navigation of the air by | heavier than air machines. At the | grounds of the society any man who thinks he has anything to contribute to the solution of the problem of aerial flight will have the best facili- ties and all assistance in trying out his ideas. and the millionaire eN- perimenter will have no advantage | over the wage earner.
 Nothing could exemplify better than the organization of the Aeronautic
 society. not only that there is an ! important future fo rair navigation, but the belief that as a practical problem will be solved by practical investigators and not by persons of wealth who merely regard flying as offering a possibility of a new and expensive sensation.
 The land which has been leased by the society on which to conduct eX- periments is none other than the old Morris park race track, in this city. in former years the scene of many an exciting contest between turf fla vOrites Here with a clear air track. the first of its kind in the world, measuring more than two miles. air ships. the latest development in trans portation. will supplant the horse. In the club house now devoted to the work of the Aeronautic society pho tcgraphs of every conceivable kind nf ar machine and models of all kinds of aerial construction from kites {" dlrieibic balloons have supplanted the portraits of famous equine racers Already al this first practical air park iu the world more than a dozen machines arc completed or in the course of construction, and in con- neCtion with the whole project noth- ing x mere significant of the practi- cal future O: the airship than the fact that most of the eXperimenters are men of small means-wage earn CTS, mechanics and the like. It was primarily to give an opportunity to such men as these that the Aero nautic society was organized.
 Perhaps the most interesting of the various flying machines now being tested at the new navigation grounds is the helicopter of W. R. Kimball. Except for Maxim's dirigible it is the iil'St tAptllSlNt anu llliiSl btdulli ullA constructed airship in the world. Its motor is a marvel. Weighing only 125 pounds it develops 50 horse power by which the twenty propeller blades are driven This helicopter which cost S1O.OOO. is of course entirely different from the Wright aeroplane. It consists of a frame on which the motor is placed in front with the seat for the operator directly behind. Above are the twenty propellers. which not only drive the machine forward but lift it as well. These prOpellers resemble nothing more than the old fashioned wooden fan. often seen in restaurants. The motor, how ever, is capable of turning them at a rate of more than 2,200 times q minute At this speed the blades are Of course invisible. In the next shed to this S10,O0O beauty is the Williams 'biplane,' so called because of the manner in which the planes are rigged. In the very near future too the Schroeder "arrowplane" is to be tried out. according to its inventor. This machine takes its name from its

thusiastic look for the immediate production of a practical and cheap flying machine But the Aeronautic society and the work which it is carrying on at the old race track are extremely significant. Without doubt it marks the beginning of new stage in air navigation. Never be- fore have men of small means been able to test their ideas. and the eX- istence of the first public air track in the world is in itself a remarkable indication that there is a practical fu- ture for air machines. With work and experiments going ahead steadily it is also the purpose of the society to hold special public exhibitions from time to time. Strong in the belief that no point is too small to be carefully studied, prizes will be offered for even kite flying by school children. The now famous tetrahe- dral kite has taught much, and it is the belief of the members of the society that it may teach still more. Nothing in connection with any air apparatus, it is held. is too small to be considered. The steam engine started from a tea kettle, the balloon from a paper bag. So while all kinds of air vehicles will be seen at the park, including various machines, nothing will be looked upon as in significant The Aeronautic society believes that flying will be solved in a practical way. As a result of this belief New York now has the first and only public flying grounds and shops in the country, where the inn pecunious eXperimenter can test his ideas and receive advice and assist ance just as can the millionaire. It may look like socialism or philan- thropy. In reality it is neither. It is. howevsr. an extremely significant development in the solution of the problem of flying.
