in New York Yesterday.
New York, March 15.--What is said
to have been the first christening of an
aeroplane in the history of the world
took place yesterday at Morris park
under the auspices Of the Aeronautical
society. Practically all the ceremonies
which attend the launching of a ship
were performed, including the break
ing of champagne on one of the steel
bars of the machine. The sponsor
named the new craft, biplane, con-
structed by Wilbur r. Kimball, New
York No. l."
Lee S. Burridge, president of the
Aeronautic society, in an address to
the assemblage of air experts and
others present said:
1T has been the unvarying custom
upon launching a ship to baptize it.
Why not flying machine which is
destined to play far more important
part in the future besides being a far
greater achievement.

The statistics show that out Of
the los, 900 drawings at Spokane
recently, only 1900 persons drew
land. The average expense to
each individual who participant
ed in this drawing was $4,000.
Do a little figuring. and you will
see that over SIS. cog. 10000 was
wasted. absoiutelH wasted, in
this scheme for distributing 1900
homesteads and timber claims.
What a pity these homeseekers
knew nothing Of Luna County
and the lands waiting for devel.

was not diverted into the MINI

Apropos Of these remarks. it

in regard to properly advertising

and not one Of the six were at

country, the Pecos Valley, Dry
Farming on the mesas, the Rio

vocates: the Mimbres Valley had
none.
To illustrate again: we spent
some time before coming west

ON WHEAT PRICES
RAILROAD MAGNATE SEES BRIL-
LIANT FUTURE FOR GRAIN In.
DUSTRY FOR THIS COUNTRY
HE LEAVES FOR EAST TO-DAY.

Portland, Ore, June 5.-James J.
Hill, chairman of the Great Northern
board of directors. spent part of
the day a few days ago In Portland
and has left for the east. Speaking
Of the conditions in the Pacific north
west Mr. Hill said:
There has been a great deal in
the newspapers recently about Mr..
Patten. His operations have been
exploited as a corner on wheat. Yet
Patterns wheat has been sold and the
corner is out of existence, but the
price of wheat remains high. In real
ity there was no Patten wheat cor
ner. Patterns buying of wheat in this
territory did not affect the price of
wheat in Oregon a bit. We need our
wheat at home and the fact of the
matter is that more wheat was export
ed last year than the country could
spare.
''In the last Is years six new wheat
states have been opened and there are
no more new states. In those % years
the wheat production of the country
has increased IS per cent and the
population has increased IS per cent
"You can see that the United States
Is going to need all its wheat and the
time is not far distant when all the
wheat raised west of the mountains
will be shipped east of the mountains
Railroad yards are the real har-
bors of the country. Look at st
Louis. Out of the 4S0.000 tonnage in
1907. one-fourth of one per CEN
moved by water. The other SO 3-4
per cent moved by rail.
Duluth and West Superior have q
greater water tonnage than any other
city in the world, the tonnage being
$4,000. zoo Every ton of this freight
is hauled to Duluth and West SUI
perior by four railroads. Railroad
yards are the harbors OF the world

PROVED CONDITIONS.

New York, June Speculative
activity was again strongly in evil
dence at the opening of trading on
the stock exchange today. Opinion
in Wall street today was that the
present Outburst of speculative en-
thusiasm is not due so much to the
buying of the general public as it is
to the operations of important finan-
cial interests and a group of heavy
operators, some of whom were until
recently on the bear side of the mar
ket.
The continued ease of money is, Of
course, large factor in the present
speculative movement, as are also
the most uniform reports of improved
industrial conditions and a belief n
the excellence of crop prospects. An
other important factor is the intro
duction of American securities on
the Paris bourse.
