CITIZENS CHEER
NOTED AVIATORS
ARTILLERY B00MS AT CELE-
BRATl0N IN DAYTON
WRIGHT BROTHERS VIEW PAG-
EANT IN THEIR HOME CITY
Medals from Nation, State and Town
Will Be Presented to Distin-
suished Men During cere"
monies Today

DAYTON, Ohio, June 17.-Some-
body at dawn today yelled, "Hooray
for little old Dayton!" which. coupled
with the names of Wilbur and Orville
Wright, Immediately became the slo-
gan of Dayton's two days celebration
in honor of the aviators.
BY the booming of cannon, shrieking
of whistles and ringing of bells the
citizens of Dayton made it known that
whatever claim the rulers of Europe
or the government at Washington have
upon the Wright brothers, theirs is that
of fellow townspeople.
From many triumphant arches
swung outstretched aeroplanes and on
the tops of tall buildings aircraft were
made to appear ready for flight. On
one banner appeared the words,
america is the home of aerial naviga-
ton. and Dayton is the home of the
worlds first aerial navigato"s."
Aviators View Pageant
Escorted by the state militia, regu-
lars and a brass band, the Wrights
were driven to a platform, before
which passed a pageant representing
events from the founding Of Dayton
113 years ago down to the present.
The chief event of the celebration
will take place tomorrow, when med
ais will be presented by the national
government, the state of Ohio and the
city of Dayton.
After completing their flights for the
government which are to begin al
Washington next week both the
Wrights. probably in August, will sail
for Germany to take up their work
there.

PLANS ROAD TO
LATIN REPUBLICS
HARTMAN TO BUILD THROUGH
CENTRAL AMERICA
SOUTHERN PACIFIC SYSTEM TO
BE EXTENDED TO MEXICO
Said That Railway Magnate Hopes to
Control Transportation from
Seattle to lsthmus of
Panama

MEXICO CITY, June ia Mexican
paper reiterates the statement that e.
II. Hartman will build railroad
America. 1t says:
1.-THE biggest piece of railroad con-
struction ever done on the American
continent win be completed by the man
who, taking over the Southern Pacific
and Union Pacific systems at a time
when they were at their lowest ebb-
as far as profits were conCerned-cre-
ated the greatest railroad system in
America.
~. H. Hartman, with the Southern
Pacific completed to Guadalajara, will
continue his line southwark until he
controls railroad transportation on the
North American continent from Seattle
to the Isthmus of Panama.
THE history of E. II. Harrilnan's
railroad achievements in Mexico is
spelled by his continuation of the
Southern Pacific railroad from Arizona
down the west coast to Guadalajara.
There has never been question in
the minds of railroad men in Mexico
that the west coast line of the
Southern Pacific was but the first link
of a system which would control the
north and south business on this con-
to satisfy the plans of Cecil Rhodes
"E. Fl. Hartman controls today the
railroad situation from all points on the
west coast of the United States to the
western terminals of the Panama canal.
Concessions Await Hartman
AT any time that the Pan-American
railroad is necessary to his construc-
ton work he will acquire it. At any
time that he needs to acquire conces-
sions in Central America they viii be
ready for him.
1.-The track of the Southern Pacific is
being pushed forward as fast as mon
and money can push it, on to Guadala-
jara.
mo word comes of an attempt to Sc
cure the concession down the rich
Lerma valley to this capital, toward
which all have thought Hartman was
aiming.
Senator Jose Castellot has paid the
first fees and secured the concession in
the name of Salt Lake City parties for
a line from Acapulco to Salina Cruz,
and this concession is held open, and is
ready for Hartman when he is ready
to take it up and build the line.
For this concession a deposit OF
something over 100000 has already
been made with the Mexican govern
ment.
This line will be built by way of
Gambia. the northern terminus of the
Pan-Amerioan railroad, and when II
arrives there connections will be made
with the American.
For the gap between the present
southern point of the Southern Pacific
survey and Acapulco a number OF
routes are under consideration. A
Mexico city company holds what is
said to be the most available one.
There are. however, number o.
possible routes, and the engineers of
Hartman are now in the field seeking
the most feasible line.
This is the Hartman chain, in brief,
and of this entire project to the Guate-
malan border a matter of 1000 kilo-
meters, only $50 kilometers, approx
mately, are left to be arranged
eThe engineers are in the field and
the Mexican government is awaiting
the word on this location.

thing and the government is paying
enough TO furnish them with what
they deserve. In Confederate Soldiers
homes maintained by the southern
states the old soldiers get the best of
everything, The trouble Is with the
system. Once the care of the old sol
diers is placed with the war depart
ment the results will be different. The
soldier will know where he stands and
the government will know where it
stands"
The national significance of the issue
raised by the complaints registered
by the old soldiers can readily be seen
from the fact that the home at Saw
telle is only one of a number, and if
the control of these homes is to be
taken out of the hands of the special
commission and placed with the sec
rotary of war it is of great importance
to every section.
President Taft will hear from the
old soldiers on the subject, especially
with reference to the situation which
now exists, according to their state
ments, at SaWtele. The statement
that there is only a small amount of
food on hand owing to the appropria-
ton being exhausted will furnish the
veterans with munitions of war.
The charge which has already been
made that the soldiers are underfed
and are not getting nutritious food
will enter into the question when it
comes up TO be threshed over. The old
soldiers are prepared to furnish proof
that they are not getting what the
government is pledged to provide for
them,
