 From May to August 13 last. the chairman of this committee was ab- sent from the territory. Soon after his return, on or about the 2d or 3d of September, there was brought to the attention of the board a proposition to bridge the Salt river at the foot of Center street The matter was re ferred to this committee. who at once began to secure information and data, as well as to make personal inquiries. in order to get in touch with public sentiment on the subject.

 The Phoenix and Naricopa County Board of Trade, in annual meeting as- sembled, most cordially sends an in Vitation to the Los Angeles chamber of commerce to visit Phoenix and the Salt River valley, here to be guests of the board in an inspection of the great irrigation development, within which Phoenix is now so notably pros pering. It is with appreciation that, through irrigation, has come the mar vicious growth of southern California, and that her business men and farm CTS already have solved most of the problems of the settlement of the southwest.

GOVERNMENT AERoPLAyE TESTS

The Wright brothers have fulfilled their con-
tract with the government handsomely The
War Department asked for machine capable
of carrying two persons and flying continuously
for an hour The limit was exceeded by twelve
minutes. 4 speed OF forty miles an hour was
demanded. According 70 the Official measure
ment, rate of forty-two and half miles was
maintained. but Orvllle Wrights statement that
but for an error in turning he could have i'm
proved the record by two miles may be accepted
at its face value Here, certainly. is good meas
ure Both the government and the Wrights are
TO be congratulated on the result. There will be
general satisfaction among the countryInen of
the Dayton inventors over last weeks per-
formances and with the ability Of the Wrights
to secure a bonus of 5000 in addition to the
regular contract price of $4,000. The money
has been well earned.
1t can hardly be assumed that the capacity of
the Wright machine has yet been fully revealed.
With an engine Of greater power than the one
used in the Fort Myer tests velocity much in
excess of forty five miles an hour could I'M
doubtedly be attained. With a larger supply of
gasolene it should be able to travel much fur
Their than it mas done hitherto. One of Wilbur
WriShts flights without 4 companion in France
last year was said to have lasted over two hours.
Wilbur Wright's longest aerial journey with two
persons, up TO date, continued only an hour and
ten minutes, about two minutes less than that
Of his brother at Fort Myer last week. Doub-
ling or even trebling the duration of a flight,
however, would seem to be entirely feasible If
sufficientamount of fuel could be carried. Even as
it is. however, the United States now has an air.

new product has yet been reported. AS ffty-six
miles were traveTsed by it on Saturday in about
an hour and two-fifths, it moved at the rate of
thirty three or thirty-four miles an hour. Elimi-
mating from that record any possible help from
the wind, Zeppelin II seems to be slower than
the Wright machine by ten or eleven miles.

conducted with another American, 4. NJ. Her

CHICAGo's NEW erpERIyTENpEyr.

There are several reasons why a woman
should be especially fitted for the position Of
school superintendent In many of the states,
even those not partial to female suffrage. women
serving as county superintendent of schools are
not uncommon, and there has been no general
complaint of lack of efficiency on their part
Chicago, always daring in its innovations, has
chosen a woman for superintendent of its public
schools There can be no question Of her high
qualifications for the place. She was for many
years district superintendent of schools in
Chicago and is the author of several books re
lating TO pedagogy. That she was unanimously
chosen in competition with men is either high
tribute TO her personal worth or to the intell-
gence of the members Of the Board of Education,
who decided the case on its merits, eimna ting
entirely the question of sex
Perhaps the the most hopeful thing about the
choice of woman for such post is the prac-
teal certainty that the public schools will be
divorced from politics. The public school sys-
TEN of any city, above all other departments,
should be kept free from partisan politics. bur
this is result rarely achieved. And the fact
that women are not political factor in Illinois
is decidedly in the new superintendent favor.
for there is every likelihood, under the circum-
stances. of her being able to conduct the affairs
Of the department independent Of the politicians
It will be worth while for other cities 10 watch
the result Of the experiment.
