5# New York, Oct 4-Wilbur Wright,
the aeroplanist, defied the air, the
Water and the land in a marvellous
fight over the numberless craft in
New York harbor and the North river.
Starting at 9:56 and flying high Mr..
Wright went, up the North river, over
the fleet of battleships and on past
Grants tomb, encircling the British
cruiser Argyle. Returning at faster
speed, with the wind, he came back
over the water and landed at his
starting point in the most matter of
fact way possible. He had been gone
for 33 minutes and 33 seconds, max,
ing one OF the most perilous trips ever
attempted. Tie distance of the flight
was estimated at fifteen miles.
AS the aeroplane approached the
city, flying steadily but bucking the
. wind, the roofs of all the buildings be.
came crowded and pleasure craft
started up the river in an effort to
keep up with the remarkable craft
that flew above them. They we're soon
compelled tt give up the chase, for
Wright outstripped the fastest of

AS the machine pushed into the

A llu Union Rep.) Taft's
apologies for the new tariff biz are
not accepted Ia this neck Of the woods.

q lbert Lea b Tribune Rep. We
welcome the fray, if there must be-
within the party, and intend to- con-.
tinue the fight for tariff revision along
the lines we know the republi cans Of
this district demand And in that
connection We want to serve notice
that we refuse to be read out of the re-
publican party either by President
Taft or Congressman Tawney. The
question as to what the republican
party Of Minnesota stands for. the
republican voters shall determine and
IN SO doing will settle which element
N the party best represents them.
President Taft came all the way to
Minnesota to hurl down the gauge Of
battle and unless our political sense
deceive us, the republicans of Mime
sofa, headed by their nine representa-
tlves IN congress, will take it up.
When the smoke of the battle clears
away after next election, we believe
that even President Taft will be quite
certain how the republicans of Mime
sofa feel about the Payne. Aldrlch
tariff bill.

For however much may be admired

OF Tawney's support of the measure
and consequent condemnation of
Senators Nelson and Clapp and the
eight Minnesota congressman whose
votes denounced the tariff bill, his
laudation of Senator Aldrich, and
assertion that, the tariff measure is
one of downward revision, which is
,, disputed by ten Of the eleven national
Legislators Of his state, is bound to
create factional strife within the

~ Experiments OF Charles Haralson ii;
fruit culture on the state farm located
south Of Lake Minnetonka, have pro-
crossed go satisfactorily as to entitle
HIM to be classed among the horti-
cultural wizards Of the day. 81
While Mr.. HARRISON cannot promise
to put Minnesota IN the banana belt,
yet he can assure Minnesota farmers
that Minnesota can be classed among
peach and pear growing states, and
that 1t can also take step farther up
the horticultural ladder in the rails
ing Of apples \. . .#
These results have been obtained by
Mr.. HARRISON through q process Of
acclimatizing fruit trees to this
country Besides these fruits that
have become citizens of the state, Mr..
HARRISON has evolved species of
plums. grapes, strawberries and
laspberrles that are not only more
prolific IN bearing, but harder than
plants and trees heretofore known as
natives of Minnesota.
Mr.. HARRISON has been enabled to
carry out his experiments through the
patronage Of the board of regents Of

HAVE WE'LL WATER ANALYZED.
Since number OF cases of typhold
fever have been reported among the
smaller children, who are attending
the Central school. and the consequent
belief of some of the parents that the
disease was caused by the water from
the school pump being contaminated
with germs of this disease, the school
authorities have had Health Officer n.
Dunont send samples OF the water
drawn from the we'll to the state
board to be tested.
The school board and Prof. White
do not believe that the water is con.
taminated as the water IS taken from
a pipe driven through solid rock and
is SO encased with cement that germs
could not very well get into it.
Besides this the number Of cases of
typoid is about one per cent of the
school enrolment, all using water
from this pump. Other things that
lead one to believe that the cause of
the disease is other than this is that
1t has sprung up mostly in one
neighborhood.
