Combination AirShip

BOSTON. Mass. Dec. I.-Richard
Neuhaus, a Boston architect, is respon-
sible for an entirely new departure in
the construction Of airships He has
apparently solved the difficult problem
CT combining modern aeroplare of the
Wright type with an equally modern
dirigible balloon Of the Baldwin type
The combined type appeals TO inven-
tors from the viewpoint Of safety. The
danger OF a bursting gas bag is elm
mated by the attached aeroplane, and
the upsetting of the latter is prevented
by the gas bag overhead.

SEEK TO CONTROL
STREET RAILWAYS
Commissioners Ask Congress
for Supervision Over
Public Utilities.

That the supervision Of the street rail-
ways De transferred from the Interstate
Commerce Commission to the Commis-
siOnerS Of the District, aud that the lat
Ter be given a like supervision over
all public utility corporations in tho
District, is the recommendation made 10y
the Commissioners to Congress today.
The Commissioners say that while
they recognize that the Street Railway
Commission. appointed by the Interstate
Commission, has done a valuable and
efficient service, they believe that this
is n strictly municipal junction which
ought 20 be performed by the municipal
government.

In a letter TO Senator GaIlinGer, chair

District Of Columbia, the Commissioners
can attention TO their recommendation.
IN their annual report, that they be

the following arguments:
Their Argument.
such regulation OF public-utility

A Great Fair.

'rhe fair to open here Friday will have the best aggregation of amusements ever shown in the state" said a man just in from the west
 T saw the same shows in Memphis and they are the best I've. ever seen. Speaking Of fairs the State Fair held at Pueblo September IA to 19, this year, was a great success. Owing to the Inter national Fair held at Denver some peo- pie thought this might interfere with the State Fair at Pueblo. though such was not the case.
 The city was beautifully decorated and presented 8 truly holiday appearance. The attendance at the fair was enormous and the agricultural and industrial exhibit was much grander than usual. The all falfa palace was a new and unique feat ure. and the display of high-bred live stock was large and exceptional; in fact, everything was up-to-date and the people, both exhibitors and spectators, went away thoroughly pleased with Pueblo and the State Fair.
 'The fruit display from Montrose coun- ty and other counties of western Colorado were a wonderful revelation, illustrating the benefits of irrigation. The apples and peaches were of an enormous size and most deliclously favored"

range of Balkans would not be picnic. No doubt Bulgaria and Austro-Hun- gary are acting together. backed per haps by Germany. Germany and Aus tria-Hungary are allies in general. On the other side are the other signatories of the Berlin treaty which has sudden ly collapsed-Great Britain, France, Italy and Russia. Not one of them has much interest in the contest that has been precipitated by Bulgaria and Aus tria-Hungary
 The Young Turks are deeply inter- ested in the proceedings because if they permit even a shadow of power to pass from Turkey they will lose prestige and the Sultan may regain his power. They will therefore be com pelled to fight Bulgaria. But can the war be confined to Turkey and Bull garia? What for example, will Mace donia and Albania do? A conference of the powers may prevent war, but Hi order to do this it will have to recog- nize the independence of Bulgaria, and it will have to meet speedily
 The situation is complicated by Rus sias desire to build railroad to the Adriatic, and Austria's attempt to build a line to Constantinople The territorial greed of the powers is also a feature of the situation. The Sultan has nothing to fear in the conflict, but the Young Turks have a great deal at stake. and the suddenness of the new movement has startled all Europe aliu affected all markets, robbing, of course, the southern farmer who has cotton to sell of slice of his profits.

 in industry. The republican party does not promise this. On the contrary it pledges itself to continuation of the policies under which trusts have grown and fattened al the expense of the public.
 The democratic party does promise to prevent the creation of private mo- nopolies. To have prosperity we must have harmonious cooperation between labor and capital. The republican party does not promise this. On the contrary, it promises to continue the policies which estranged labor and capital, and have made labor troubles acute. The democratic party promises justice be- tween labor and capital and a restor- ation of peace and friendship between employer and employe.
 ITO have prosperity we mr~t protect the depositors and thus induc them to take their money out of hiding and re- store it to the channels of trade. The republican party does not promise pro- lection of deposits. The democratic party does. The democrat tic party promises leg- islation which will insure depositors. The man who puts his money in a bank must know that he can withdraw 1t at any time, and this security would be given by the banks, because the banks make their money out of their depositors. If we are gong tc nave prosperity we must have a reduction of the tariff. The people recognize the tariff is extortionate. Even the republican leaders are forced to ad init this, and yet they are deliberately planning to prevent any real revision by electing a stand-pat Congress While the republican candidate is taking about re- vision, without giving any assurance that revision will mean a material reduc- ton. If the republican party wins it will not revise the tariff in the interests of the consumer. and that means that the present agitation must continue for four years longer.
 Do the business men want business unsettler? Do the business men want an extension of this agitation? Do they want business to be unsettled by four years of discussion over tariff rates? !? If the democratic party wins there will be an immediate reduction of the tariff which will satisfy the public demand and remove the tariff question from politics for a number of years A democratic vic tory means prosperity. prosperity to all the people. and prosperity that will be permanent It means the remedying of abuses; until abuses are remeded there can be no peace and the sooner abuses are remedied, the more easily can the remedy be applied"

Opening TWenty-e eighth Street

The alleged right of the railroads to cut this city into slices, any one of which an old engine and some empties can isolate, is to be looked into by the courts and definitely determined Mayor Ward and City Attorney Smith are bringing a test case to focus, and when that case is ended the city will know whether it's streets can be cut into at will by the railroads.
 The test case relates to Twenty eighth street, between First avenue and Avenue A. In the space between there is no Twenty-eighth street, the railroads refusing to open the section in dispute, claiming, in fact that they own it, and it is not convenient in their business to have a Twenty-eighth street between First avenue and Ave nue A. The railroads in question claim  that they arrived on the spot first, and that the city's late arrival deprives it of the power to make Twenty-eighth street continuous. The city claims that even if that be true condemnation pro- ceeding can even at this late day be begun and the sliced-up city can in that way be rendered modern and homogeneous.
 The matter is before the courts, and the people will have to be content with the situation, distressing as it is, until the voice of the law is expressed in black and white.

Doubtful States.

T was looking over again the New York Heralds campaign section of Sep tember ds and no change has taken place in the campaign situation since that is- sue," remarked democrat.
 According to the Herald's calculation then. Taft needed from doubtful states s6 electoral votes and Bryan needed S. Since September 13 West Virginia, which then. had a republican slate split, has been placed among the sure states Tor Taft. West Virginia has votes, which would leave only % for Taft to get.
 Notwithstanding the wide disparity be- tween Taft's and Bryan's apparent cleo toral strength, Bryan's chances are very good. indeed. These are the doubtful states am. hopeful of his carrying New York, 39: Maryland. 8; Indiana, 15; Min nesota, Il; Nebraska, 8. and Montana 3. In addition to these doubtful states, Bryan will carry, I believe, Delaware, with 3 votes. This list, with the states that are sure for him would give, the democrats a majority of 6 votes in the electoral col lege. There is a possibility of Bryan carrying New Jersey, with l2 votes. Chair man Mack thinks he will carry that state, but the chances are exceedingly slim.
 While the large number of. doubtful states that Bryan must .winito assure his election may look diseouraging; but not so. If he carries New York. he Is almost sure to carry all the other doubtful states named"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-10-07
Stockholders a Factor

The fact is brought out in the Taft organs that the shareholders in the going" corporations of this country now number 100000, and the number of bondholders is probably as large or larger In this way, reason the Taft organs, fully one-third of the number of voters are tied to the corporations. They certainly would not desire to see the corporations ruthlessly despoiled for such a course would lessen their own revenue.
 No doubt the number of small stock holders in this country is rapidly in creasing. Immediately after the Octo- Der panic a heavy buying of shares and bonds in small lots set in, and 16 lead ing corporations are known to have increased their share owners 3S per cent. The United States Steel corpora. tion succeeded in placing $12,00O,0 ,000 of it's capitalization among 35,000 of it's employees. These and similar facts go to show that shareowners are a lot of people to be reckoned with in elections.
 The Taft party naturally turns to these shareowners. As the rank and file turn away from it it turns for sue cor to share and bondholders, and it is building today its estimates on the votes of about 4,OO0,OO0 of these peo- pie, big and little. It's emblem should be pair of coupon-cdipping shears.

\ War Cloud In the Near East

The Russo-Turkish war of 1877 was concluded in congress of the powers at Berlin in the summer of 1878. Bull garia became autonomous, although technically province of Turkey. Southern Bulgaria was made a prov ince to be known as Eastern Roumelia. Austria was authorized to occupy Bos- mia and Herzegovina, and the frontier of Greece was rectified. In 1885 Bull garia seized Eastern Roumelia and the Sultan acquiesced in the seizure. Tn the meanwhile Bulgaria has made treaties with foreign powers it's diplo- mats being known as agents In all but name Bulgaria has been free and independent. She has now proclaimed herself free and independent. Prince Ferdinand is now King or Czar of all the Bulgans, and there are a good many of them. The population is about 4,000 ,000, and Ferdinand can put 220,0OO men in the field at once, with ITO 900 reserves to support them.
