AEROPLANES FLY 81
MILES.

The record made by Paulhan at
Rheims strengthens the prediction
that aeroplanes will play an import
ant part in the next war between
first-class nations, and 1t also inspires
the hope that some day net far dis
tant ships of the air will cross the
Atlantic
Halvor G.. Coulter. who is visiting
his parents in ogden, prior 20 depart
ing for military service In the Phil
ippines. is convinced that the United
States government must carefully
note the progress of aerial navigation
and move to meet the new conditions
In warfare which the aeroplane and
airship are forcing on all powers.
Paulhan covered 81 miles In two
hours, 5S minutes and "a seconds. and
for 90 minutes of that time had a
heavy wind and rain storm TO con-
tend against Had the Japanese at
Port Arthur possessed an aviator cap
able OF flights or hall that distance
800 meter hill could have been cap
tured without the great sacrifice Of
life which the troops Of the Rising Sun
were forced TO make.
As Lieut. Coulter. who is in the
coast artillery service of the army,
says. the raining down of high eXplo-
sives from an aeroplane or airship is
a condition against which the coast
Notifications have made no defense.
Even battleships are not armorcd so
as 10 resist an aerial attack.
The experiments In aviation are
keeping our military experts awake
nights. Those entrusted to protect
rs from invasion are beginning to see
things and the nightmare is not all Il
dream

RESTING AT Ills
COUNTRY HOME

New York. Aug. 25.-Two thousand
feet above sea level. at his country es-
tate near Arden, y. Y. Edward II.
Hartman is resting tonight. Shielded
from business cares, barred from vis-
itors. he disappeared from the public
eve In manner no less dramatic
than his display of grit upon his ar
rival from Europe yesterday
II was announced at the Union Pa
cifc offices that he was resting quietly,
and by telephone TO Arden 1t was
learned that there was no change Ia
his condition.
Mr. Hartman has retired in the trl-
est sense for his "after cure and
nothing Is To disturb him.
Just as the country eagerly read
the cables from abroad concerning
the flnancier's health, and bought OF
sold stocks accordingly, go 1t has gone
on since the brief glance at him yes
terday Uneasiness was strongly re-
ilected In the stock market. With Il
weak opening Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific. together with New
York Central-now classed as Har-
riman stock-undcrwent declines at
the outset under rather heavy selling
orders FirmneSs followed the first
losses. but 1t was only temporary and
was followed by even greater decline
as trading continued. and by noon
nearly all active stocks were of from
IL to points.
Bears Are Active.
Bear operators made capital of his
interview of yesterday, indicating that
Improvements rather than dividends
would be his aim.
Substantial gains wore recorded as
the afternoon wore on, but the pres
sure on Hartman stocks made the
close irregular. Trading was not in
remarkably large volume, but at
o'clock 100000 shares had been sold.
With Mr Harriman's permanent re-
tirement from the active management
of his railroads considered at least a
possibility, many pick Judge Robert S.
Lovett, general counsel for the Har.
riman lines. as his successor. This Is
mere gossip.
Judge Lovett is a native OF San ia
cinto, Tex. where he was born forty
nine years ago After entering the
railroad legal field in 1884 he became
general counsel for the Southern Pa
cifc In Texas. When Mr. Harrimau
took over the road he picked Judge
Loyett as a man Of ability and has
since advanced him rapidly

EVEN TRUST STEALINGS ARE
WITHOUT PROFIT.

The Tooele Transcript asks the
following question:
The Ogden Standard says there Is
no profit in stealing, But where the
dickens do the great trusts get all
their money with which to pay their
great dividends?
We had In mind the profit which
abides with one-the feeling Of hav-
Ing done right by all mankind. The
trusts are soulless creations. made up
of soulless corporations They can
steal and on the stealings declare diw-
dcns. and the unclean profits may
reach clean hands, but the authors of
the scheming which makes possible
those stea!ings must suffer oualms OF
conscience. or. If they have no con-
science. they must be deprived OF
those flner sensibilities which make
life worth living and without which
one Is miserably poor In the things
worth having and is a subject of pity
because of the paucity of the moments
when en- rapport with the beautiful.

MONEY WHICH WILL MAKE MUCH

The farmers of this county will

growers receive their first returns for

OPPOSITION TO CORPORATION
TAX.

The corporation tax law invades
state rights-not inherent rights AZ
existed in the really sovereign states
before the adoption of the constitution
and which no longer exist In the
states. but the rights guaranteed to
the states by the sovereign people.
That Is the position taken b. the San
Francisco Chronicle. That paper says;
All know that the constItutionality
of tic corporation tax will be contest
ed, but the President. the attorney-
general and Senator Root all lawyers
OF the highest standing are firm in
the belief that it Will be upheld by
the courts It is folly 10 discuss this
tax on It's merits as TAX, for it is
not oneTous, nor unjust, and the great
injury which 1t will do 10 the hun
dreds OF thousands or small corpor-
ations by making their financial af-
fairs a matter of public record can be
got rid Of II is. however, of the very
highest Importance. for it strikes at
the very root OF OUT national policy.
If this tax Is sustained the guaran-
ties Of the people OF the United States
to the individual states viii have been
repudiated and the United States Is
legally centralized government. and
will become practically so as fast as
the national government chooses to
exert its authority
1t must be remembered that the su.
preme court is not expected to sustain
this tax as an income tax II that
were done the discussion would turn
upon the merits of the tax, for no
fundamental principle of our govern
ment would be involved II Is expect
ed to be upheld as an excise tax
upon the privilege of existing and do
ing business as corporation. M
one denies the justice and propriety OF
this tax If paid to the authority grant
ing the charter.
The question is as to the
power of any government TO
levy Il tax of this kind on a
privilege granted by different gov
ernmeni. AS to this the supreme
court has held first, that one state
cannot impose such tax on a corpor-
alton chartered by another state, and.
second. that no state can so tax n
corporation chartered by the National
government. And the ground of this
decision, made emphatic III tho case
whore United States corporation
was involved. was that such a tax
was "an impairment of the dignity
and sovereignty Of the government
granting the charter. and that the
power TO tax being the power to de-
stroy. II state could tax Federal
corporation at all 1t could tax ii out
OF existence II will be on this ground
that the constltutionality of the cor,
poration tax will be contested,

WORK FOR THE MAGNET.
How is Lifting Powers Have
Been Developed.

The magnet that boys of yesterday
used for a toy today as men they are
employing as a useful instrument in
their workshops. Within the last few
years particularly, as w. Frank Nc
Clure points out, it Is being adapted to
handle many shapes of metal, all forms
of iron and steel, from iron dust to
scraps, or small junk to weights of TO-
900 pounds. In fact, the worlds largest
magnet will lift as much as $4,000
pounds.
The magnet is employed to break up
imperfect castings. to hold sheets of
metal in position while they are being
riveted In the building of ships, to lift
q SOW and pigs at the furnaces; also
as a gigantic broom to sweep both the
large and small pieces OF iron, and In
numerous other ways.
Half a dozen kegs Of nails may be
seen travelling through the air, held by
magnetic lines of force. despite the
wooden covering of the kegs, Even two
or three men are sometimes lifted from
the ground, their feet resting on a
sheet which is firmly held by the mag
net.
The fiat style of magnet is available
for picking up metal sheets. from two
