During the week Of aerial contests
vt Rheims orders were placed with
the manufacturers for fifty mono
planes Of the type will, which Bleriot
dew from France to England. The
cost of the lot will be 100000. large
sum to invest in a mere toy, assuming
the aeroplane to be only a toy to
amuse sports and few daring scien-
lists. But the aeroplane is not toy.
1t dates back nearly a quarter of a
century and has been developed along
scientific lines. What is astonishing
the world now is no mere accident,
destined to disclose a fatal weakness.
Men have died in attempting to prove
that the true principle of aerial fight
was in the possession of man.
AS long ago as 1886 Professor Sam
uel F. Langley of the Smithsonian in
stitution introduced planes and a motor
In a machine which few three-quar-
tiers of mile. This was really sci
entif1c experiment, and although it did
not solve the problem it laid the foun-
cations for scientific advance Later
German experimenter was killed
after flying 900 feet at an elevation of
twenty-five feet with a continuance of
planes worked By his own power. 1t
IS now fifteen years since Hiram S.
Maxim, level headed inventor, dem
onstrated that a heavier than air ma
chine driven by motor and balanced
by planes can rise in the air. What
Langley and Maxim proved has served
as capital for later experimenters. The
planes are to air craft what wheels
are to wagon and car. Types will be
varied and motors improved and
adapted to special needs.

Have We Trees to Burn 2

have we Trees to Burn?
The national forest bureau lost Nc
time in trying to counterfeit recent
assertions that this country is in NC
danger of timber famine. A bulle.
tin issued from the Office of forest
statistics states that 1--WE are cutting
our forests three times as fast as they
are growing" Admitting that we may
never reach absolute timber exhaus-
ton, the bulletin, in the language OF
Assistant Forester Kellogg, says, Gun
restricted exploitation of our forests
in the past has already had serious
effects, and it will have much worse
1t allowed to continue unchecked"
The remedy suggested is on the prin-
ciple of "a stitch in time saves nine.''
An equilibrium between timber pro-
duction and consumption should be
established through many years OF
vigorous effort by Individual forest
owners, by the states and by the ma
tional government Future rate of
consumption cannot be judged by the
past. There are more consumers, and
about half of the old work must soon
be rebuilt. But, while reasonable con-
servation is advisable, it is more than
probable that future construction will
depend less upon timber than past
construction. Both sides of the ques-
ton will be looked at.

THE PRINCETON UNION: THURSDAY sEPrEMBER u. 1,o,

Salary of the Floodwood Pastor.
( "a couple Of weeks since an editorial
paragraph, based upon information
derived from a Floodwood paper,
stated that the pastor of the M. ,E.
church at that place received only
SILT for years work. It appears
that our .Floodwood contemporary
was in error. The following letter
from Presiding Elder Clemans is self
explanatory:
Duluth, MINI, Sept. S, 1909.
Editor Union: I read in the
U nj % of last week an item stating
that the pastor at Floodwood, Mimi,
received but SALT for years work.
This statement, taken from a Flood
wood paper, is not true and is an un-
just reflection upon a pioneer COM
munity. My book shows that the
people of Floodwood have paid their
pastor since October last S254.83, and
they promised when I was there few
weeks ago to make it up to $500.
There is a splendid Ladies Aid
society at Floodwood that takes care
of the preachers salary and public
spirited citizens who are doing their
part. F'loodwood is part of circuit
and from additional preaching places
the pastor receives $4,000, making a
salary of S640.O0.
Will you kindly make the correc-
ton? With best wishes to yourself
and family, I am
Yours sincerely,

Shields Offers q Suggestion,

Governor Johnson has a presi-
Dental bee in his bonnet His term
as governor will expire little more
than year hence. What to do to
keep his name prominently before the
public for the two years following the
expiration of his present term as
governor is what is bothering John
son at present. Evidently Johnson
and his army of Office holders are
planning to secure his nomination for
a fourth term. AS he repudiated the
last democratic state platform they
are at loss as to what to do for a
platform. AS he repudiated the plat
form on which he made his latest
campaign it would be useless for the
party to give him another platform so
we suggest that the next democratic
state convention omits the adoption of
a platform in case it dominates John
son for governor.-Far Pilot

upon to go through, face life like a

Should be Increased, Not Removed.
The work for the removal of the
oleomargarine tax has evidently been
carefully planned. The butchers
have now taken it up A legislative
committee appointed at the meeting of
the National Butchers association
held in st. Paul last week will, it is
said, "make an effort to secure the
removal of the revenue tax of ten
cents per pound on oleomargarine. -
The packers have doubtless inspired
this movement. If this tax is remov-

proposed, the price of honest butter
will take a slump that will make dairy
