THE WRIeHTs' GREAT SERVICE.

1t appears to be highly creditable
to the Wright Brothers that they leave
aeroplane racing to others and apply
themselves to bringing to the highest
point of safety and efficiency the aero
planes of their invention. sosS4A
One of the things said to have been
satisfactorily demonstrated at Rheims
is that the way of the flying machines
was easily learned and it took but a
little while for ''fedglings" to learn to
fly, and that these machines respond
readily to inexperienced hands when
the weather is favorable-in fact are
as easy to handle as a 30-horsepoWer
touring motor car.
The Chicago News is right when 1t
says that "the fact that America won
the speed contest is not particularly
important. The Wright brothers, lab
oring with cold efficiency to make the
aeroplane a thoroughly dependable
machine, by discovering new ways TO
protect its equilibrium and otherwise
to increase its safety, are doing far
more to make flying lasting success
than all the racing motors thus far
devised"
For quality, speed and safety the
American machines must stand first:
and this is Of the first Importance to
all concerned.

THE RRYAN FURNITURE.

1t is pleasing to learn that William
Jennings Bryan is the pioneer in
something practical, and that his good
judgment and foresight is likely to
benefit Texas directly and a great
many people indirectly.
During one of his visits to Texas
he bought tract of wooded land COM
prising $50 acres near Mission, in the
Lone Star state. He had small part
of it cleared a few months ago and
the larger mesquite and ebony log
wood he kept from being cut up into
cordwood and railroad ties. He ship
ped a. carload of these logs to fur
niture factory in Michigan and it has
been made up into sets of household
furniture. These pieces of furniture
are said 10 be superior to anything
in their line ever made out of native
wood in this country.
This leaves no doubt that Col. Bryan
is wild, awake business man and has
led the way to better days for the
Texas timber growers-he has made
chairs a1C tables and bureaus grow
where only cord wood and railroad ties
grew before.

THE NORTH POLE PRE-EMPTED.

The expected has happened and the
American eagle figuratively speaking
has perehed on the North pole and
perched to stay. The American ex-
plorers have been the most daring and
persistent, and then the achievement
Of DIR. Cook is enough to swell with
pride the whole nation, which includes
a great and reputable Cook family.
OF course, Dr. Cook did not bring the
pole home with him for he found it
grouted too firm and deep to pull up.
He simply mounted the American flag
upon it and shouted "hurrah!" to the
wonder Of the esquimos who were with
him. The news must be severe shock
to Wellman for DIR. Cooks dash for
the pole has made any further dashes
unnecessary, so the new balloon for the
enlarged shed at Tromsoe may dash
for Washington instead.
The advantage of the discovery is
best stated by DR.. Cook who in a let
ter TO the Boston Globe nine years
ago said:
The great advantage to be derived
from the discovery of the pole is the
clearing up of the mystery which sur
rounds the polar regions. The aim of
modern polar effort is to gather infor-
nation to understand better the con-
ditcns of the earth, not only within
the arctic circle, but at the equator
or in our own locality as well.
The sand of Long Island and the
boulders of New Jersey cannot be well
understood until we study the NOR
aines of the polar glaciers. In meter
0Iasy fhaPA uoptous ,.-l;oI
are hidden by the hand of nature be-
hind the icy polar walls.
I'VE cannot hope to lind the origin
and destiny Of storms and cold waves
and hundred other weather peculiari-
ties until the atmospheric conditions,
the terrestrial topography and the in
terchange of air and sea currents are
carefully noted at the poles.
In geology and meteorology there is
much TO be gained by q continuation of
polar exploration. The keys which will
open the doors of new chapters are lost
in the polar SHOWS; the search will be
difficult; but we must persist in look
ing.
What is true Of geology and meteor
oiogy and magnetism is equally true
OF all the other departments of science.
The polar fora and fauna have an ALL
important bearing upon the early life
Of the globe. IL we would understand
the life following the glacial period we
must 70 to the poles to study the PEN
gum, the seal, the mgskox, the ice
bear, the reindeer and the whale. II
We will gain a true knowledge Of prim-
tive man We must seek the Eskimo,
whs is just emerging from the stone
age"
DR.. Cook sas become first of Ameri-
can explorers and brought great honor
TO himself and his country.

WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.
The "War Game" Worthless.

The end of the war game for the
capture of Boston brought a very in
tereSting situation. The attacking
forces under the command of General
Bliss had succeeded in passing the left
flank of the army of defense under
General Pew and had a clear road
open to march to Boston. For this
reason General Bliss claics that the
capture of the city ought to be award
ed to him by the umpires. 1t is inter
esting to remember that the strategic
situation was exactly the same as that
of the armies of General Lee and Gen
eral Meade before the battle of Get
tysburg. General Lee had passed the
Union army and was actually further
north than Meade. If therefore it
should be decided by the umpires that
General Bliss captured Boston, they
would be saying General Lee was a
victor because he got to a point north
of the Union army. In the battle of
Gettysburg the Union forces actually
occupied the southerly position; but
the brilliant military genius of Gen.
eral Lee showed him that he was
obliged to make the attack even though
he had a clear road to Harrisburg and
the north.
The Massachusetts war game was

An exchange commenting on the
formation of Maine club in California
says it would be difficult to organize
a Californian club in Maine. We are
not so sure about that. If all the
Maine people who have lived in Cali
fornia for considerable length Of
time were 10 organize a club it would
present a membership of goodIy num-
bers. BY no means all of the people
from the Pine Tree state who have
tested the climate of the land of sun
shine were willing to exchange their
old home state for that one as a land
of steady residence.-Portland Express.
II all the New Englanders who have
taken a hand in the settlement and
advancement Of California now in the
New England states should stand up
to be counted they might themselves
be surprised. There must be quite a
lot of the original forty-niners; and
there are lots Of people who have spent
a year or two there earning a liveli-
hood in all the New England states.
California clubs of good size could be
formed in the largest states. Sure,
Connecticut could round up a club that
California might be proud Of

defective in that the attacking force
paid little attention to guarding it's
TANKS or maintaining connection with
its ports of landing. Again the army
of defense in real war has the choice
of position, and this constitutes a
large part of it's strength. The location
chosen for the recent war game did not
offer the best defense in the Blue Hill
range and the Neposet swamp un-
equalled in this country except by
the natural impregnable position of
Richmond. Va Only two roads pass
through the hills and only three cross
the swamp. A small army with artil-
lery could easily defend this line
against a force four times as large.
General Bliss had not even approach
ed this line of defense, which would
be certain to be occupied in a real
war. The men engaged in the recent
war game had some practice in march
ing and in handling their guns. but as
for giving any light on the probable
result of an attack on Boston by real
enemy, the manoeuVres were entirely
worthless.-Boston Watchman.
