AIRSHIPS IN KAR

In "McClure's Magazine" for August Carl
Dienstbach and T. II. NacMechen indulge in \
flight of fancy utterly surprising in holiness
any flight yet made by the subject of their arti-
cle-the military airship. These enthusiastic
admirers OF Count Zeppelin are convinced that
new era in warfare has dawned and that
hereafter all conflicts win be conducted in the
air. They believe that with balloons like those
of the Wurtemberger armies on land and ma
vies at sea can be completely obliterated
No matter how extravagant may be the sug-
gestiOns which are offered here and abroad re-
garding the possible uses Of the military air
ship, they are likely TO receive some considera-
ton from officers in the armies and navies of
every important power. 1t is in order to keep
alert to any new possibility of danger, so that
proper means of meeting it may be devised. If.
for instance, there is the remotest chance that
infantry or cavalry will ever he attacked with
aerial torpedoes, it is worth while to determine
which of several methods of dealing with the
situation is the best Obviously, IL troops are
without adequate protection from artillery, it
might be judiciOus to avoid massne them In
close order. Very likely however il will prove
feasible to meet If not to anticipate the enemy's
fire by the use of high angle guns like those
manufactured by the Krupps. Unquestiona bly,
there will be a further development of this
weapon III Ine next rev years, out II IS easy to
see what effect might be secured by il even now
II by a well aimed shot an explosive bomb could
be made TO penetrate a dirigible balloon nothing
short OF humiliation would result Hydrogen
is as dangerous as gunpowder No one seems to
know exactly how a spark gained access to the
airship Of Count Zeppelin which was wrecked
almost exactly a year ago near Stuttgart
Every one does know, however, what happened
when the gas he used for imitation was ignited
Naval vessels apparently have an even better
assurance of immunity than bodies of troops
There may be some inconvenience in moving a
high angle gun over the ground-at least, lust
now-but such a gun, once mounted on a ship
can be trained more easily than elsewhere
According to Messrs. Dienstbach and Mac
Mechen, no attempt will be made TO hit ships OF
by dropping missiles on them. The diff
Guilty of getting any sort of aim under such cir
cumstances is recognized by Count Zeppelin's
admirers They say, therefore, that whatever
projectiles are used will be fired from tubes on
the airship. STILL in either case the balloon
would furnish an extremely tempting and easy
target.
The force of the dire prophecies of the article
in "AIcClure's Magazine" is broken by the full
page drawing of Mr.. G. A. Coffin which films
trates it. The artist represents an aeroplane
firing a shot at dirigible balloon Thus is
indicated an important factor in any aggressive
operations which will be undertaken by
Z airshps. The aeroplane is unquesionably

neighbor appears 10 infer, to rejoicing over the
fact that the best of an Inferior lot of candi-
dates was selected at the primaries. The major
consideration with The News" was that the
people had administered a smarting defe8t 10
both machines. Now, this is one of the things
which it is said direct primaries will do, and 1t
is interesting to have the testimony of the dis
nlusonzed News" that in this one instance they
did It. Moreover, in this inferior lot Of candi-
dates were the offerings of the machines, and
they were among the worst of the lot, which
makes poor case for the method of letting the
machines. through conventions, do the selecting
of candidates themselves. And again, so as to
bring out the whole case, the rejoicing News"
went further and said that either of the two
nominees for Mayor would make satisfactory
Mayor.
Thus we have IT: At the direct primaries
the people chose the best men offered They
smashed the machines" And either of the
men nominated would do" as Mayor. Now,
what we have been trying to find out is whether
the $50 animal was sold for So or whether just
prior TO the sale, by a revaluation on subse-
quent and fuller consideration, his price was
raised TO $500.

The CAN issued by the Democratic reorgan-
1Zers who are 10 meet in Saratoga Springs next
month is tactfully vague. 1t selects certain
topics for discussion. but Ildiciously leaves TO
the conference the task of preparing "a declara-

1.-THE party name in this state" The party name
in this state, as In other states, has covered a
multitude Of opinions on all issues. local and
national, and the party machinery has been
used by leaders 10 set up thoroughly undemo-
cratic system of rule from the top To give the
Democratic voters control Of their own organ

complete revolution in party methods The
proceedings of the last two state conventions
showed what contempt the leaders now in
power have for the theory that the voters have
any rights which a boss-created state committee
is bound 10 respect Yet that situation is not
at all new. The party machinery under David

under the management Of Mr.. Murphy and Mr..

press the views OF substantial majority of the
party will also be herculean task, for at no
time since 1896 has any one element been strong
enough 10 impose an ineligible or a consistent
policy on the organization.
The reorganizers will have their hands more
than full with strictly local problems The
suggestions which they throw out as TO national
ISSUES Indicate however that they VIII risk
trying 70 adjust the views OF Democrats here
TO the views of Democrats In the rest of the
country. But that adventure will be full of
peril. The readjusters seem TO favor tariff
reduction primarily by abolishing the protec-
'riop of special interests" But the only tariff
programme on which most of the Democrats in
Congress could agree at the session Just ended
was opposition 10 reduction OF tariff duties
which affected special interests In their states

The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad is to spend
100000 additions to it's rolling stock and
for other improvements. The obvious inference
from that investment. coupled with others of
similar nature decided on by rival railroads, is
that prosperity is on the way and greatly ex-
panded business for the common carriers al
ready reasonably assured.
