ferred back to the committee, stating
that similar bill had been killed in
the house. Senator Purcell stated
that the bill was Just and would pre-
vent injustice to builders. He wanted
1t to be adopted. He states 1t was
founded on the experience Of the at
torneys Of the state. As the law stood
at present all the protection was given
to the man who furnished lumber and
materials-none to the builder. He
thought It could work no hardship to
lumbermen to keep such an account
and prevent frauds in liens Of this
sort.
Senator Crane thought the lnechan-
les lien bill was just and that 1t had
done much to build up the country.
He said there was NO lumber trust
that had ever been discovered. II the
lien lawyers repealed 1t. 1t would be
re-enacted at the instance OF the build
ers themselves.
Senator Gunderson wanted to know
why lumberman should have a lien
more than grocer, banker or a
machineryman. Senator Martin could
not see where the requirements of the
proposed bill would work any harm
to the lumberman. In the end the re-
port Of the committee was adopted.

FUTURE OF THE AEROPLANE

FUTURE OF THE AEROPLANE'
Across the Atlantic by sir is not only
possibility, but a probability of the
nea, future, according to Wilbur Wright
who Tuesday 10 Dayton, Ohio, COM
mented upon the wonderful flight oil
Count Zeppelin's dirigible.
"No one can say how rapid will be
the development of the dirigible or the
seroplsne," said Mr.. Wright. "But
such feat is really not difficult. be-
lieve the development of flying machines
OF various types will be astOuishingly
rapid, the basic principles having been
firmly established. Court Zeppelin'i
flight does not sstonish me. The re-
msrkable feature is that he has not done
as we'll before this. Though working on
different lines, we have many problem'
in common, the most important of which
is mastery Of the ever'chsnging air chi
rent"
Ia reply to a question IS to when, in
his opinion, 1t would be possible to cross
the Atlantic in the air, Mr.. Wright
said:
81 think we may look for an astonish'
lngly rapid development now that the
basic principle has been established, aud
a year from now may see trsns.Atlan-
tic trip successfully carried out. A ma
chine with capacity to carry az adequate
supply of fuel and oil, with provisions
for the avistor, is the main requirement
although duplicate engines would add
greatly to the safety of the trip, and, OF
Of course, to the weight OF the machine
and its cargo"
