fish connection with terra firma.
A splendid idea; all transportation
problems solved by eliminating
them; but the invention is lacking
in an essential particular. The man
bound for given place would first
have to journey north or south to
the exact latitude of his place Of
destination in order to get off-or
rather on-at that place. What is
needed, therefore, is complement
airy magnetic arrangement that will
attract a man to the north or repel
him to the south while Mother Earth
is making her daily twenty-four
round trip under him. With this
addition the inventor could COM
mand 100000 for his patent, at
least.
After the thing becomes. practical
however, the great trouble is going
to be that the earth doesn't revolve
fast enough to meet the needs of
those having to travel comparative
ly short distances. For instance, if
the earth's speed could be increased
considerably the west slider of Chic
ago might find it convenient to shoot
himself into the air, go around the
world-or rather let the world go
around-and enter Michigan side.
1t would be preferable to holding to
a strap all the way down Madison
street-Chicago Record-Herald.

Admiral Emory Retires.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE name
of one of the bravest officers who
ever strobe the deck of man of
war, Rear Admiral William Hem
sley Emory, was today erased from
the rolls of the United States navy.
The admiral commanded the second
squadron and the third division of
the Atlantic fleet during it's trip
across the Pacific, and hauled down
his flag when the fleet was in Chi
nese waters, preliminary to his re-
tirement today upon reaching the
age limit allotted to naval officers.
Rear Admiral Emory was born in
this city December 17,1S46. He grad
uated from the Annapolis Naval
Academy in 1866, and his career
since then, although not spectacu-
lar, has been marked by diligent at
tention to duty that won for him
the rank of rear admiral.

The law OF gravitation has been

Fires have cost us as many as
1000 human lives in one years
time, and our loss in money value,
through the destruction of property,
is almost as appalling. The pro-
duction of gold in the entire world,
something like 100000 a year,
would not recoup us for our losses
by fire, and the incidental expenses
accompanying them, in the same
period of time; the value OF all the
coal mined in this country in a
years time would just cover the
cost to us of our fires; the value OF
our lumber production is only a
trife more.

Norman E. Mack, chairman of the
democratic national committee, had
a bright plan to keep the democratic
campaign running right along until
the next presidential election, maxi
ing the campaign one of four years
instead of four months. He announ-
ced his determination to achieve
this end by keeping the national
headquarters open, and doing bust
ness, right along instead of closing
up shop after election, as national
committees have been wont to do.
But Mack's plan has tizzled out.
The democratic partisans failed to
fall in with the idea, or to come
through with the cash, and Mack
will have to do just like other ma
tional chairman have, done in the
past.

Mr.. Cromwe..'s statement that no
man prominent in public life in the
United States received a dollar of
the purchase price of the Panama
canal may be quite true. But the
country would like to know whether
any American received dollar or
more of the price. If shrewd
schemers on this side of the water
profited at the expense of the gov
eminent in the sale Of the property
of the French canal company let the
fact be made known, that the real
measure of their patriotism may be
revealed.

Seth Low declares again the fact
that the greatness of New York
City is due largely to the building
Of the Erie Canal. The canal has
been great highway for the easy
and cheap transportation of mer-
chandise between the port of New
York and the great lakes and nat
urally it has determined the gneral
lines along which the transportation
business between the east and the
west has developed. No doubt New
York City would have become the
metropolis OF the nation ii the canal
had not been built, its magnificent
harbor facilities and its general To-
cation marking for it that destiny,
nevertheless the building of the can
al has accelerated the city's growth
and the canal stands today rs q mag
ni6cent testimonial 10 the agaciiy
and enterprise Of its designers. But
for it Boston and Baltimore and New
Orleans would have been bigger
places. Il is suggestive Of what
other states might DO 10 contribute
TO their material upbuilding, and is
az unznswersble argument for the
developing Of q waterways system
which shall be as nearly national II

AT Boston, Wednesday, Prof. Per-
cival Lowell said that his assistant
had been able to determine that
Mars had measurable vapor. This
goes to confirm the theory of life on
that planet. The proof is derived
from photographs OF the spectrum in

moon.

year for less than twenty cents and
a good deal has brought thirty or
more, perhaps 23 cents has been a
fair average for the year. How
much butter then does the average
productive dairy COW yield annually
in South Dakota? Is she good for
six ounces per day for three hum
dred days; that is to say, 1925
pounds of butter for the year? If
so the average COW has turned in
s25.S75 and the dairy product of
the state for 1908 would be $1O,-
34,625, or two and one half mill
lions more than the Annual Review
gave us credit for.

South Dakota needs to be adver-
tised. If this state is to get the
new settlers who are coming west
in the next few years, we must let
them know what we have to offer.
No better investment of $1,000
could be made than in this way.
Let the people know what resources

settlers. North Dakota is beating
us in this respect, simply because
that state is advertising and South

that Mr.. Taft is showing a disposi-
ton to consult with and work with
the congressman and senators in
making his administration sue
cess; that he is disposed to recognize
to the fullest extent that the con-
gress is a coordinate branch of the
government and should be given it's
rightful place in the conduct of gov
eminent affairs. 1t is not possible
that President Taft will be able to
accomplish more for the ultimate
good of the American people than
President Roosevelt has, but there
is every probability that he will be
able to accomplish as much, and that
he will do SO in less strenuous
manner than the present president
has been able to do, because of the
different natures of the two men,
which calls for different methods
Apparently President Taft will be
able to accomplish his purpose with
the aid and cooperation of congress,
where President Roosevelt reached
practically the same ends in spite of
the opposition, open or covert, of a
large section of the statesman at
Washington. Either method is eff
fective; the Taft way will probably
prove more pleasant both to execu-
tive and legislators.

ton for the republican, democratic,
socialist and prohibition parties as
14,739.899 as compared to $780,
1872 in the election four years ago.
This falling OF of 100000 votes,
according to the Times, is due partly
to the natural growth OF the cleo
torate and partly to the votes Of
the Bryan democrats who refused
to vote for Parker four years ago.
Taft's total vote is given as 1885,
1913 while Roosevelt four years be-
fore, though he got bigger ma
jority Of the popular vote, was but
7623,4S6, or 35,7O2 less than the
vote polled by Taft. Parker's vote
OF 1904 was 5,077,971, while Bry-
ans vote this year was 6,450,69O.
The increase of 1,372,719 votes
over Parker should not be taken as
an evidence Of Bryan's increasing
popularity. however. as the Times
points out that In 1896 Byran got
100000 more votes than he did in
1908 and that his percentage a
the total vote was less. in 1900 than
in 1896 and less in 1908 than in
