the contest. Four years ago, and
again two years ago. he whipped the
Republican state convention into line,
forcing 1t to accept Hughes as the
nominee for governor. The supreme
question was whether he would be
able again to compel the Republican
organization to follow his bidding.
It was a clear cut issue between the
former president and the .'organiza.
ton leaders, and the leaders won.
From the moment that Colonel
Roosevelt sent his telegram to Mr..
Griscom, urging the passage Of the
bill, things hummed. The situation
suddenly became one which was re.
garded as OF national significance. The
question was whether Roosevelt of
Sycamore Hill was as mighty as
Roosevelt of Washington. Those who
had previously supported the Cobb
measure, including even Governor
Hughes, slipped into the background.
In front of them all was the command
ing figure OF Theodore Roosevelt.

A|RSH|P WAR TESTS
RESULT IN FAILURE
Graft Too Crude to Be Of Use
as Fighting Machines

Hammondsport, NY, July 2.-That
the aeroplane in it's present state of
development is far from being a salts
factory engine Of war is the conclu-
sion of Glenn H. Curtiss as result
of the experiments in mimic bomb
throwing which he has been conduct
ing over Lake Keuka. The tests thus
far, he says, have demonstrated two
important points:
First-That no aeroplane can be
made into an efficient war machine i'm.
less it is fitted for carrying two per-
sons-one to act as pilot and attend
to the motor, the other to act as gun
ner. ...
Secondhand the dropping of pro-
jectiles is waste of ammunition with
out gun which can be aimed right
from overhead and can carry its mis-
sile to the target.
Rear Admiral Kimbalps comment on
the tests is as follows:
"These are the aeroplane's present
defects for war purposes:
Lack of ability to operate in aver
age weather at sea; signalling ap.
proach by noise made by motor and
propeller: impossibility of controlling
heights and speed so as to predict ap-
proximate range; difficulty of hitting
when working at height great
enough to give the aeroplane a fight
Ing chance Of reaching effective
range" --.
