DUSSELDORF, Germany, June 22.-
The first regular airship passenger
service was inaugurated today when
Count Zeppelin's great craft. the
Deutschland, carrying twenty passen-
gers, successfully made the first scheo-
uled trip from Friederichshaven to this
city. a distance of 300 miles, in nine
hours. The weather was perfect ana
the motors worked faultlessly. Inc
average time maintained for the COM
plete course was approximately tnlrty-
three miles an hour, but between trle-
derichshaven and Stuttgart the four
teen miles was covered at an average
speed of forty-nine miles an hour: Inc
best speed for a single hour was forty
three and one-half miles. Count Yep
pelin was at the helm when the
Deutschland left Friederichshaven at .
o'clock this morning and sailed away
on the trip that was to mark an epocn
in aviation. The passengers We're some

AN AERIAL PARLOR
They occupied the mahogany walled
and carpeted cabin situated between
the gondolas and from the windows OF
which they viewed the scenery as the
aerial car swept along. count 4epSS
pelin steered for the greater part OF
the distance.
The route was via Stuttgart, Mann
helm and Cologne to Dusseldorf. II
had been carefully marked out In ad-
vance for the guidance of the pilot and
was followed exactly. There was no
air stirring and the Deutschland MADE
her way unhampered through hooo
of bright sunshine. The hour and min
ute of the. probable passing OF tne
various points had been bulletined
ahead so that not only the people of the
cities ON the line who filled the streets
but the inhabitants of all the inter-
mediate villages turned out and
cheered enthusiastically as the i'm
mense torpedo-like structure with It's
whistling screws drove over their heads
at a height of between 200 and 800 feet.
The Deutschland swung gently into
her landing here at room and the null
titude surrounding the landing yards
shouted a welcome. The city had been
eayly decorated in honor of the event.
The promoters of the enterprise were
entertained at a public dinner.
CARRIES BUFFET
Regular trips will be made and many
tickets already have been sold for the
first few days at from $25 TO $50 each.
The airship Is equipped with res
taurant which will supply the passen-
gers with a buffet service such as is
afforded on railroad trains.
The dimensions of the Deutschland
are: Length 485 feet, width 46 feet. Its
gas capacity is 24,S52 cubic yards and
it carried three motors developing a
total of $50 horse power. 1t was de-
signed to maintain a speed of 80 miles
an hour. It's lifting capacity is $4,000
pounds, of which 1000 pounds cover
the crew, passengers and express. 1t
is expected to be able to accomplish a
continuous trip of TOO miles.
Count Zeppelin demonstrated the adj
vantage of an air route in the section
of the country traversed. The Deutsch-
land cut the railroad time one-third
between Mannheim and Dusseldorf,
covering the distance in four hours,
whereas the railway express time is
six hours.

HARMON'S PLATFORM TO
BE RECORD IN OFFICE
Declares for Election of Senators
by Direct Vote

DAYTON, June 22.-The leading
points of the Ohio Democratic platform
are as follows:
1.-THE coming campaign in Ohio for
the election of state officers should
and must be fought on state issues and
il is therefore proper that we declare
first and foremost our position upon
these quesetions of state government
in which the people are most inter
ested.
1--WE submit TO the record made and
making by the present Democratic
state administration.
INSTEAD of protecting and defending
grafters as was the way of the Repub-
lican officers, the present governor is
having them prosecuted and sued for
the return to the state of the many
thousands of dollars secured by fraud
and wrong doing. The governor is
handicapped In the task of purifying
and improving the public service by
the opposition of a hostile legislature
and Republican state officials. We
favor:
"A maximum aggregate tax rate of
ten mills.
1.-THE fair and just regulation of all
public utilities as well as rights with
the right of home rule as to franchise
carefully safeguarded."
The income tax amendment for the
federal constitution, the election of
United States senators by direct vote
of the people, limiting hours of labor os
employed women, a separate ballot
without party distinction for the judi
ciary are also favored.

WILL CONFER ON
IRRIGATION BILL
Senate Votes to Name Conferees
to Take Up Question with
the House - =
Associated Press1

WASHINGTON, June 22.-No sooner
had the senate disposed of the postal
savings bank bill today than there
ensude a spirited contest among sena-
tors for precedence in the interest of
other measures.
Among the important bills before the
senate there were three candidates for
first place on the calendar. These
were the Appalachian forest reserve
bill, the irrigation and reclamation bill
and the campaign publicity bill. Sen
ator Brandegee obtained recognition
of the Appalachian bill, and it was
made the unfinished business. He
then gave way for the presentation of
other measures, and both of them were
passed within thirty minutes.
$2O,OOO,OOO BONDS
The reclamation bill authorizing the
issuance of $40, 900, 900 in certificates of
indebtedness to aid in the completion
of government irrigation projects al
ready under way was called up by Sen
ator Lodge of the committee of fin
ance, from which 1t was reported.
Senators Lodge, Smoot and Bailey were
appointed confereeS on the bill to ad-
just differences with the house.
The campaign publicity bill was pre-
sented by Senator Burrows chairman
of the committee on privileges and
elections. This bill requires the pub
lication thirty days after election of
all contributions made to national or
congressional committees in the inter-
est of election of members of the house
of representatives. As it passed the
house, it required publication of con-
tributions before elections. The meas
ure met with great favor in the SEN
ate.
BAILEY OBJECTS
Senator Bailey objected to the elm
ination of the house provision requir-
ing the publication of campaign con-
tributions in advance of elections.
There was no roll call on the bill as
whole and it was passed unanimous
ly. The publicity and reclamation bills
are house measures and both will go to
conference before being finally acted
upon.
The Appalachian bill will receive
first attention from the senate after
the disposal of the routine business to-
morrow.

TRADE IN VALLEY
Railway Commissioners Hear Re-
quest of Los Angeles for
Reduced Rates

SAN FRANCISCO, June 22.-When
the hearing on the request of the Los
Angeles Jobbers' association for re-
adjustment of freight rates in the San
Joaquin valley was resumed today by
the state railroad commission, W. R.
Wheeler, manager of the tariff bureau
of the merchants exchange, continued
his testimony begun yesterday. He
produced facts and figures in support
of the contention of the merchants of
San Francisco that this city is dis
criminated against and argued that in
stead of being reduced the present
rates from Los Angeles to valley points
should be materially increased.
The afternoon session was occupied
mainly in an attempt by attorneys
representing the Southern Pacific and
Santa Fe railroads and the Associated
Jobbers of Los Angeles to rebut
Wbeeler's testimony.
Wheeler reiterated his former state
ments that San Francisco had suffered
from discrimination on the part of the
railroads. The attempt to overthrow
his testimony followed the conclusion
Of his redirect examination by attor-
neys for the San Francisco merchants
exchange.
Present at the hearing were many
men prominent in the railroad world,
including w. G. Barnwell, general
freight agent Of the Santa Fe; George
w. Luce, general freight agent Of the
Southern Pacific, and Luce's first as
sistant, T. A. Graham.
The railroad attorneys were c. w.
Durbrow of the Southern Pacific and
u. T. Clotfelder of the Santa Fe.
Witnesses examined during the day
were M. H. Robbins, Pacific coast
manager of the Otis Elevator COM
pany; H. G. Mitchell, secretary of the
Harron-M McCone Machinery company,
and F. H. Keyes. president of the Pa
cific Implement company.

Governor Renominated and In
dorSed by Delegates for
President in 1912
P0MERENE FOR SECOND CHAIR
After Election States Chief Exc
Cutive Is Expected to Re-
sign from Office
[Associated Press1

DAYTON, Ohio, June 22.-The DEM
ocratic Party of Ohio goes into the
state campaign this fall with Judson
Harmon as it's candidate for governor
and president. The Democratic state
convention today indorsed him in the
strongest terms for president, after it
had renominated him for governor by
acclamation.
The belief held by many delegates
that the governor will resign shortly
after the beginning of his new term in
order to become a candidate before the
next Democratic national convention
was voiced by James E. Campbell, for
mer- governor. The former governor
was introducing Atlee Pomerene of
Canton, the nominee for lieutenant gov
ernor.
Here is the man." he said, "who will
be lieutenant governor for six months
and the governor for a year and q
half"
Both of these nebulous promotions,
however, were accepted against the
earnest protests of their benefciaries.
HARMON PROTESTS
Governor Harmon made a futile re-
quest of the resolutions committee that
they omit the presidential Endorsement
resolution, saying he is making his
political fight on state issues and does
not want national issues injected into
the coming campaign. He was told it
could not be prevented.
Atlee Pomerene himself a candidate
against Harmon for the nomination
two years ago, almost angrily demand
ed that he be not compelled to make
the sacrifice. as he termed it, of ac-
cepting the nomination for second
place. Although his name was not
placed in nomination, he received near
ly enough votes on the first ballot to
nominate him. He formally withdrew,
but on the second ballot, before the
roll call was completed, the nomina-
tion was made unanimous.
After conference with his friends, he
announced he would accept.
The proposition to indorse candt-
date for United States senator, which
was suggested by w. j. Bryan, was
defeated, receiving but 254 out of 1899
votes. The senatorial Endorsement plan
had been successfully defeated in the
state central committee, the rules COM
mittee and the resolutions committee.
CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION
A move of great Importance to Ohio
was made by the convention when 1t
indorsed the proposal for a constitu-
tional convention, a question which Will
be voted upon by the people this fall.
Following is the ticket nominated to
make the campaign with Governor
Harmon:
Lieutenant governor, Atlee Pomerene,
Canton.
Judges supreme court, Maurice H.
Donahue, New Lexington; James John
son, Springfield.
Attorney general, Timothy S. Hogan,
Wellston.
Secretary of state, Charles H. Graves,
Oak Harbor.
Treasurer, D. s. Cramer, st. Clairs-
vile.
