6Ieriot's Achievement,

The fight over the English Channel
from Calais TO Dover by the French
man Bleriot In his monoplane marks
in dramatic manner the arrival OF
the airship. Other aviators have ac-
complished greater feats perhaps. and
as i'm the case of the Wrights, made
records of more practical Importance
to the science. but Bleriot, with the
Gallo eye to the proper setting, has
performed feat that makes the
world stare and gasp, and the his
toric background OF old Calais and
ancient Dover. foes for centurieS
makes the dramatic effect all the
sharper.
While Bleriot's flight marks an era
in the science of aviation. it decides
little in the growing controversy OF
types. Ii does. however. open wider
then ever the field for speculation as
to the usefulness of the airship in
war and peace. One must take with
several large grains OF salt the pre-
dictions of the pratieal" skeptics
that the airship must ever be some
what OF plaything In peace and
limited In war to purposes of OBJ
servation. Let these rock-throwsng
prophets be warned by the sad expe-
rience of their kind in the past Let
them remember that the theory that
steam would or could displace the
horse in traffic was booted and jeered
at: that Fultons steamboat filed the
old salts with ieering scorn. and that
wise men laughed at the first iron
clad warship and the first automobiles

ding clothes yet. and the diplomat. IL

how they had become humber as he
got older.

PLEDGE ON BALLOT FOR THE
PRIMARY.

State Democratic Chairman Ellyson
could not do otherwise than rule, In
response to query from the Elizabeth
City chairman. that any voter who
scratches from his ballot in a primary
the pledge placed there by the COM
mittee. should lose his vote. Demo
cratic primaries are held for the pur-
pose Of choosing nominees to be
supported by Democrats, and every
body knows that nobody except Demo-
Gratis. or these who promise to support
the nominees OF the primary, are
supposed to participate. OF course,
some people who do not intend to and
will not vote for the nominees In the
general election vote In the primaries.
This cannot be helped. for IL a voter
chooses To pretend that he is going
to fulfil the primary obligations. there
is. no way of keeping him out But
pct propose TO observe the party regu-
lations ON the moral obligation incur
red by participating in the primary.
It would be utterly ridiculous to allow
his ballot to flgure in deciding the
result of party contest.
1t really should not be necessary
to put pledge on the ballot. II is
necessary. however. for there are
many people whe do not recognize the
moral obligation unless 1t is printed
In black type ON the ballot they cast.
1t is contended in some quarters that
the pleoge is liable to keep voters
out of the primary. This may be true,
but the Democratic party has the sat-
isfactiQn of knowing that anybody who
stays out for such reason very probab-
ly would not support the nominees II
he went in. And the more such people
kept out the better.
