A BLUFF THAT FAILED.

The official publication of the text
of the Manchurian treaty between
Russia and Japan confirms the sum

Briefly 1t means that Russia and Jap

maintain the status quo in Manchuria
with view to preventing competi-

the protection of their interests in
their spheres In northern and SOUTH

opinion has Interpreted the treaty as
closing of the open door in Man.
cburln In defiance OF their pledges un-
der the treaty of 1907 to maintain
equal opportunities for all nations
and there has been much speculation
as to the course to be taken by the
United States, England, Germany and
Trance to meet this obstructive ALL
ance. That course is now inferential-
ly outlined In the Washington state

OF the treaty.

il is remarked that. aside from that
definite promise. there is the general
principle that two powers cannot bar

Referring to the quiet. reslstless
power With which the president has
handled his great burden OF national

promises. TO meet the public demands

From this statement of his opinion
regarding the Taft administration,

OF the Republican state committee OF
New Jersey. Mr. Murphy makes 1t
very plain that he believes the main
hope OF the Republicans in the COM

SKY LORE

These days of flying machines and
dirigible balloons recall the most note
worthy attempt to live and move about
in the air ever made by man. 1t was
up to that time, and even up to Count
Zeppelin, the most daring feat ever
performed in its size and conceit. In
1863 a balloon of two hundred thousand
cubic feet capacity was constructed
at Paris. It was named 1.-THE Giant, "
and was intended to show the great
possibilities of the air. The car at
tached consisted of a small two-story
house fitted with every modern COM
fort-lavatories, dining rooom. kitchens
bedroom, parlor, etc. Thirteen passen-
gers made the first ascent, but the
Journey was of only four hours dura-
ton. The last ascent was for seven
teen hours and was abruptly termi-
mated by a high wind which, when the
balloon descended, dragged the little
house humping over the ground. The
remains of this giant of the air were for
a long time exhibited in the Crystal
palace.
Hepworth says in regard to sounds
in higher atmosphere that a dogs bark
may be heard as far up as two miles,
while the sound of a train can be dis
tinguished four miles up, but that In
the higher regions absolute silence
reigns.
If the time ever comes when the air
is filed with flying machines and diri-
gible balloons it is not too great sup
position to advance the suggestion that
tn ere will be floating grocery stores,
barrooms and police patrols mile or
so up. One reason is because a landing
is going to continue to be the hardest
thing for an airship to do and If 1t
can get its supplies en- route ii can
make long Journeys without coming
down and can do so in faster time.
Then look at the business proposition
TO the air department store--no license,
no rent. high prices for its goods, no
fix "stand"-for If business gets dull
in one place 1t can move elsewhere at a
minimum of cost.
If perfected to the extent of great
travel and transportation, city govern
ments will have to provide for floating
searchlights high up in the air, for
certain highways" that must be Kept
op-n, for an aerial hospital and life
saving station, by means of which nets
can be shot out under an airship or

there will be no precedents to quote
and no old practitioners of same to look
DOM on the young upstart in aerial
law.
The man on the ground, not being
built for looking up continually, will
probably have circular mirror
around his neck or an eyeglass attach

FOUGHT FOR RIGHTS
AND EFFECTED MERGER
Los Angeles and San francisco
Oil Operators in Hot
Contest

In the recent organization of the
Barnedon Oil company, a $10,OOO,00O
concern, the warning factions that
claimed conflicting interests on the
Buena Vista front, east of the Midway
field, have merged their holdings and
will proceed to the development of a
large tract of land which they believe
to be oil bearing.
William M. Erb has interested E. L.
Doheny, C. A. Garfield and 7. A.
O'Donnell of the American Oilfields
company in a large acreage, but when
he endeavored to secure the land from
original locators he bumped up against
a set of men who would not take a
back seat. They were Captain John
Barneson. E. j. de Saba, jr., I. c.
Talbot and Mark Requa of San Fran
cisco, and ]. M. Mcleod of Los An
geles.
There were strenuous times in the
field during which armed men pa
trolled the coveted land. Then the
white dove of peace came to the res
cue. and instead of bloodshed there
was a compromise. ]. NJ. Mcleod was
the man to bring this about, and the
result was the formation of a COM
pany in which both sides to the con-
troversy merged their financial inter-
ests and the name of the company
was made to represent the names OF
the leaders of the two factions.
The land involved, which now be-
comes the property of the new COM
pany. subject to settlement with the
claimants. includes all of sections 4
10, IA and "a the southwest quarter
of section 8, 31-23, and all of section
30. 31-24. In this big tract there are
over 1900 acres of land.
