PRAISE FOR WRIGHTS
Aero Club Members Have the
AYiatOrS as Guests.
WILBUR SPEAKS TWO MINUTES
Surprised by Longest
speech Ever Made by Inventor.
OrviIIe Is Glad to Get Back TO
America-First Recognition Came
from Aero Club, Says Wilbur.

New York, May 12-WHbur and Orville
Wright, the aviators. who arrived from
Europe on Tuesday. were guests OF the
Aero Club Of America in the banquet hall
OF the Lawyers Club. this afternoon. They
heard many personal encomiums. but
were apparently only slightly moved. An
occasional smile indicated that they were
very human Americans and were pleased
with the greetings Of the seronauts.
zeroplanists. automobiles, and other folks
present, who travel by the ordinary
means OF Iocomotion.
A Holland Forbes was toastmaster, and
after indorsing the Wrghts and their
genius, read letters Of regret from
President Taft. Gov. Hughes, Mayor Nc
Clellan, the Secretary Of War, and Gen.
Allen. Of the Signal Corps. When Mr..
Forbes introduced Wilbur Wright, all the
club members and their guests got UP
and cheered.
Makes Longest Speech.
Mr. Wright spoke longer than ne ever
has in public before, surprising his enter
tsiners- He said il was evident that the
American and other people had decided
that he and his brother were somewhat
different. Il was not their custom 10 do
a great deal OF talking. This character
istic apparently had inspired others who
did talking and writing TO attempt 70
read their minds and express views and
opinions contrary 10 those which they
held.
1T IS not true" Mr.. Wright said
that we had TO go abroad 20 get recog-
milton Everybody knows that We were
recognized originally by the Aero Clut
| Of America, even in our first fights. ir
1866"
Mr. Wright added that It was true that
he and his brother had not been officially
recognized in America first Then he sat
down. after thanking his hosts for their
faith in him and his brother Il was
expected that Orville Wright. who is not
50 reticent as his brOthe-. would sprins

minutes, had appeared al the time. and

CORPORATION AND INCOME TAX.

Already the lines are being drawn
both as to the income tax amendment
and as to the corporation tax In the
tariff bill. Democrats and progressive
Republicans favor both, ana In tne
Middle West conventions controlled
by either readily adopt resolutions to
that effect.
But in the states east of the ONO
the progressive Republicans are out
numbered in their party. The standpat
Republicans in New York, PennsyiVa-
mia, New Jersey and New England oe-
cline to indorse either the corpora
ton tax or the income tax amend
ment They say both were forced on
the party in Congro.s by the Demo
Gratis and insurgents, and they decaine
to consider either party measures.
The Democrats, however, lndorse
both, and both in this way go DeIore

the November elections. The nnai

Good Citizens

Albuquerque, N. M, Oct. 15.-Presl-
dent Taft had another day OF travel
through the far Southwest today, ira
yersing the long reaches OF the terri
tory of New Mexico.
| At Laguna, a township made up en-
tirely of Indians, the. President was
met by a local committee of Indians
and there he had one of the most
unioue entertainments of his trip.
AS he sat in a little canopled STAND
in the plaza enclosed with adobe nuts
and walls the President was shoWered
with presents. There were blanKets
of gaudy color, Indian beads and other
| offerings which the red men had fash
ioned in his honor. The plaza itself,
the walls and terraced roots OF the
adobe houses were lined with Indians
l the suuaws being attired in fantastic
costumes, which showed all the
brighter under the glare OF an un-
; clouded sun.
I There was hardly a squaw in the
: Pueblo that did not have bright-eyed
! chubby-faced little papoose either IN
her arms or swung on her back. more
: little Indian boys and girls were ar
. ranged in a long row to welcome the
President. and each one carried ar
American flag.
AS the President was leaving the
nlaza. after the weird music of the ton
toms had died away and the last step
of the Camanche dance had been take1
by the gaudily bonneted braves, tn
= little children sang a song OF New

DRtrrIy HoyoRED NH. CRANE.

Mr.. Chas. r. Crane, millionaire
business man and promoter, was re-
.ently appointed United States minis
ter to China, and when he was ABOUT
10 sail from San Francisco he was re-
called to Washington and practically
dismissed by the Secretary OF State.
Fortunately all the facts connected
with the case have been brought OUT
and Mr.. Knox does not shine con-
spicuously in the light thus afforded.
Mr.. Crane did explain the need OF
more aggressive action in Mancnurla
to a newspaper man and that news
paper man did publish what was SAID
to him by Mr.. Crane. But Mr. crane
shows that he kept within the wishes
and views of the President himself,
who advised Mr.. Crane to accept all
available invitations to public dlnners'
adding. ..Do not miss any of them,
and when you go to one lnslst on
speaking and let them have it red not.
In no wise did Mr.. Crane exceed pres
idential instructions, which certainly
should outrank instructions from MI
} Knox.
Two things further appear IN tnls
extraordinary case of confused Duns
+ ling. namely, no instructions Wer'
: given to Mr.. Crane by the Secretar!
of state. and the same Secretary
State had ascertained that matters re
4 lating to Oriental affairs mad deVei

a Washington.
It is not made plain in the CORES
nondence in the Crane case IN VIVA
direction matters in the Orient ha
: developed, but if the developmen
: means that the United States is to ca
both China and Japan to account be
cause of the new treaty between thos
countries, there is important buslnes
:. in the Far East close at hand.
Before the Japanese-Russ1an Wa
= Prussia controlled the trade of Mai
churia. She still has grip on nortl
ern Manchuria, while Japan, by secu
ing Port Arthur and by gaining uno'
y the new treaty control OF the Antun
Mukden Railway and OF the coal Ihln
near it. is in a position to DONNA
southern Manchuria. This count

:" domination out of southern Manchur
unless it also attempts to drive Ru
sian domination out Of northern Ma
churia. The open door is a good tnl1
- hut it is no better in one part OF ma
churia than in the other.
