HAMILTON IS THE HERO
Makes Sensational Descent When En-
CINE Refuses to WOrk-Paulhan
and CurtisS Race.

Los Angeles, Jan. 21.-As dusk gath
cred over the old Dominguez ranch
last night four flying machines that
had been circling the air sailed TO
earth The aeroplanists walked to
their tents, the great crowd filed down
the roadway and the first International
aviation meet held in America was
over.
Few knew that one man had been
near death in those last few minutes,
Charles K Hamilton was returning
from a 15-mile fight toward the ocean.
While a mile from the aviation field
the crank shaft of his machine snap
ped No one in the crowd noticed
anything wrong.
Hamilton shut off his engine and
so leveled and swayed his planes that
he was waited gently down. 1t was
the best piece of emergency handling
of a machine that has been done at
the meet
Curtiss Wins Exciting Race.
Curtiss and Paulhan-American AMI
French rivals-furnished the most ex-
element of the closing day. Paulhan
went up at 1925 o'clock for an endur
ance flight After he had gone two or
three laps of the course Curtiss start
ed on a 1O-lap speed trial. half lap.
or more than three-QuarterS of mile,
behind Paulhan Instantly it was seen
that a great race was on-the first
real race of the 10 days. The two
aeroplanes. full speed on, came over
the grand stand with the speed of ex-
press trains.
Curtiss swept swiftly on Paulhan's
heels and on the third lap reachsd
Paulhan, flying above. The French
man for a few seconds held his own,
then Curtiss in his American machine.
forged ahead a length and finally half

VIII Try for Record.
Charles X Hamilton will go from

the worlds record for altitude nov
held by Paulhan- Curtiss will Leave
for Hammondsport, n. Y. Charles H.
Willard will gu to Portland. Ore.
Louis Paulhan, with Maisson and

THERE is no necessity for trade of
or splitting of tickets this year.

THE nomination of VIM. +. Sandell
for mayor TO succeed himself is de-
served compliment TO a conscientious
and painstaking official. Mr.. Sandell
is deserving of second term and he
should be elected by much larger ma
jority than was given him at the cleo
ton one year ago. He is now familiar
with the routine work of the council
and can guide the business, as he has
always done, with conservative hand.
Mr.. Sandell's announcement in another
column of this issue, relative TO his
candidacy, is right TO the point. He is
a safe man TO be at the head of our city
affairs, which have been moving along
in a business-like way and an economi-
cal manner during his administration.

SINCE the withdrawal from the
gubernatorial race of Judge Mont
gomery very large proportion of his
friends and supporters have identified
themselves with the candidacy of Chase
S. Osborn, believing that he is now the
logical candidate and the man of the
hour. Mr.. Osborn's concise, fearless
and pointed way of putting things,
which he has to say and his breadth Of
knowledge of state affairs is attractive
TO the people of the state, who want an
administration of business like action
in every department. of the states work.
They are confident that Mr.. Osborn
has the qualifications and the aggress-
i've make up TO press the button, at the
right time and keep his thumb on it
until results are accomplished. The
Banner is more than ever convinced
that Mr.. Osborn should receivs the
nomination for Governor.

On the question of free mail delivery

bear in mind that the election next

that matter. "Free delivery" will cut

ed mayor or who compose the city
council. That question is now up TO
the post office department in Washing

matter when he gets ready without
asking any questions or taking advice
from any person. The mayor or COM

about it than "last years birds nest. "

SOME of Congressman Townsend's
friends have been worrying because OF
his inability TO be present at the vari-
Gus political banquets which have been
held in the state during the winter, be-
cause they felt that he was losing oppor-
tunities to strengthen his candidacy for
the United States Senate. Hehas been
able to attend but two banquets, those
held at Jackson and Adrian, both in
the Second Congressional District, and
had il not been that these engagements
were made far in advance, he would
not have felt like leaving his work at
Washington even for them. He, surely,
cannot be justly accused Of trying to
make votes by his attendance at these
places located in his own district Mr..
Townsend is growing in popular favor
through out every district in the state,
the people can see in him qualities that
go TO make up the right kind of man
needed at this and all future time in

REPUBLICAN TICKET
Ii Is Good One, Splendid Men Nomi-
mated and All Should Be Elected


mated and All Should Be Elected
The republican city and ward tickets
placed in nomination Monday night
are the best that have ever been put up
and that is saying great deal, every
man nominated should be elected on
Monday next. The administration OF
Mayor VIM. f., Sandell has been good
one during his first term in office and
with the experience he has gained he
should be continued in the place for an
other year al least, he is conservative
man and looks carefully after the citys
welfare In all lines of its business
affairs, many substantial Improvements
have been made and there are other
needed improvements, which will be
taken up soon as practicable. Mr.. San
dell however does not feel that the city
should incur any more Indebtedness
than is absolutely necessary, and there
fore is safe man to have at the head
OF the city government. He should by
all means be reelected.
The Clerkship of the city is an inn
portant one and needs man of ex
perience, Wallace S. Eddy is qualified
educationally and his two years ex-
perience in the Office fits him exactly
Tor the place the coming year. There
are many INTRIGUE matter, which enter
into the keeping Of the books of the
city, which rexuires an expert hand to
sift out and handle correctly. The clerk
has also been made the sealer of weights
and measures for the city and this also
requires man of experience and obility
10 look after it in proper way. Mr..
Eddy has given satisfaction and there
is no necessity for change.
The city Treasurership is now in good
hands and should and will be kept
there until the time limit obliges it TO
move on. w. Lee Cusser the nominee,
is as good as elected already.
The office of Justice of the Peace of
the city of Bedding, needs a man with
a judicial mind and bearing, and AL
bert l.. Spencer possesses those quail
fication.
Charles NJ. Wise the nominee for
school inspector is thoroughly capable
OF looking after whatever business comes
up in connection with that Office and
should be elected TO the position. The
ward tickets all contain excellent men
and republicans have no reason for cut
ting any part of the ticket.
