A
with whom Colonel Roosevelt made
his fight, said that his passenger
made good fellow voyager for such
trip. except that. instead of being
afraid. he was having such a good
time that Hoxsey was afraid he would
fall out or interfere with the engine,
which was roaring at MS side.
The Colonel waved his hands at
the crowd below so vigorously that
Hoxsey called out to him: Keep
your hands on the rail, Colonel. Col
onel Roosevelt, who had forgotten
TO hold himself in. waved his hands
once more and then obeyed orders
Colonel Roosevelt's car was driv-
en- directly TO the aviation field in
stead of to the parking place sor
automobiles. Hoxsey's machine, a
Wright blplane, was standing direct
ly in front of the grandstand. Colon
ell Roosevelt stepped from his auto
mobile with Governor Hadley at mis-
sid and walked over to it. He inspect
ed the broad brown planes and the
huge shining engine, and shook
hands with the aviator.
I'D like to nave you for a passen-
ger" said Hoxey.
The Colonel looked at him with
out a word Then he began to take
of his coat. 1t was the first intimation
that anyone had that he would make
the trip.
Colonel Roosevelt removed his
SLOUGH hat and borrowed a gray cap
which he pulled down over his eyes.
The militiamen handling the crowds
were standing to closely around the
air ship that few Of the spectators
knew what was going on.
Hoxsey took his place beside Col
onel Roosevelt. who watched the
preparations with a smile of antic-
ipahon, betraying not the least sign
OF nervousness.
Colonel Roosevelt gripped the rail
hard and looked strainght ahead. The
aeroplane skipped over the field for
a few yards, then lifted its nose into
the air. rising easily.
The aeroplane sped quickly around
the field at a height of less than 100
feet. 1t was the first lap of a mile
and a half before the crowd was con.

Roosevelt who was Hoxsey's pas

The spectators were too Brighten

crowd was silent. watching the aero
plane with intense excitement. The
flying machine sped by and mad
the turn for the second lap
Hoxsey could be seen to bend owe
and shout something in the Colon
els ear.
AT the end of the second lap Hox

COMMITTEE,
BY Soren Madsen
RESOLUTION by PRESS ASSN
Passed at TremOntOn, Utah, Septem-
Der 13.

Be it resolved by the Utah Press
Assn:
THAT WHEREAS The prosperity
of the state means the prosperity #
the railroads serving the state and
whereas, this association feels ana
believes that the managing Offices Of
Utah railroads have conducted their
business and outlined their policy in
recognition of that principle and
WHEREAS What Utah needs Is
further railroad development in or
der that she herself may expand and
develop, and
WHEREAS This association de-
sires to endorse the policy of the
present railroad management and to
encourage rather than to retard rall-
road building. What we want is more
railroads in Utah. Now, therefore be
it
RESOLVED That we, the Titan
Press Assn are opposed to the crea-
ton of a railroad commission for
this state, regarding it not only as
wholly unnecessary from a business
point of VI view, but also dangerous
because of the probability that It
will become a political machine CAP
able of great and unreasonable OPP
preston in the hands Of designing or
unscrupulous politicians, and be il
/ further resolved that the nearness

islature, whereby such changes, mod
/ iiications or enlargements of existing
statutes as may be necessary can be
had with the Intervention of delegat-
ed authority, together with the gerat
number of commissions which the
state already has, make such crea-
ton not only uncalled for but pos
IDLY oppressive we regard it as the
past of wisdom and justice to unite
in opposition thereto, which we here
by agree mutually to do.

is certain. The Colonel has been very noisy

it may be that he needs the money which all

various and some conflicting reasons given;
the main one is probably the universal unrest
which has broken out in SO many different
quarters. Another is said to blame the kings
extravaganza in the matter of spending pub

listed in the court calendar; still another rea-
son is the antagonism which has so long ex-
listed between the church and state. It is
peculiar historical fact to note-Spain France
and now Portugal, have all been torn by the
warning factions of the state and the Roman
Catholic Church That the feeling in Portu-

Church is shown by the deportation of hun

Advices from Washington assure the people
that it is up to the progressive papers to
secure parcels post at least
FIGHT FOR for the rural communities.
PARCELS POST Gen. C. V. Degraw, fourth
TO BE assistant postmaster gen
RESUMED. eral, has recommended the
parcels post in every mes
sage and report from his department, and he
is now being heard. 1t is interesting to note
the reason fc- gnoring the demand for
parcels post says the Washington dispatch:
''The opposition is the money power as repre-
sented in the express trust, whose various COM
panies "cut watermelons" containing millions
for fortunate stockholders. Tom Plat was
In the senate for twelve years and tottered
about the chamber and corridors, welding an
influence which was sufficient to defeat every
parcels post measure He was president OF
the United States Express Company" This
evil influence has been removed, to large ex-
tent, since the death of Plat. General De-
graw is interested in the movement and he
took particular pains to inquire into the bene-
fits which would accrue if the proposed
service were limited to rural routes and has
become more convinced than ever that the
whole country would be benefited by the estab-
I'Ooo
routes. Of course, the principal objection to
granting parcels post on rural routes is that
it would be an "entering wedge" for further
extensions. The opponents Of the movement
freely admit that If the parcels post system
is established on rural routes it will prove so
popular that there will be demand for it's
extension to all mail routes. So it may soon
come to pass that rural free delivery will mean
all it meant to mean to the farmer, and
that parcels post will enable him to make
his money 90 longer and fare better

elephants skin has begun to sag all over,
while the Donkey wakes fat on hope. For
some months the sentiment against Beverfdge,
of Indiana, has grown stronger and stronger,
and his attitude recently, when he defed the
opposition In his own state, spells defeat to
him. Carriers friends in Montana had warned
him what his utilization with the Pennsylvania
New England combination would do for him,
in his support of the tariff, and it is certain
ty that Democrat will succeed him. Senator
Dicks greatest sin, in the eyes of the South,
was his famous military bill, which places
state troops at the disposal of the Federal
government. New York and New Jersey have
been SO long torn up over their political con-
dition, neither state is in position to feel
very hopeful of success in electing Repub-
hcans, and the awful example of Maine is
ever before them
This is the question of the hour, and of
course, settles about Colonel Roosevelt. After
tearing things up by the
"wHAT roots at the New York
is State Convention, an d
ROOSEVELT then hammering the pieces
UP toe" back to suit himself, he
started on his tour of the
South, and has been preaching and teaching,
fault-finding and eulogizing, praising and
blaming friends and foes, white and black,
all day and half the night since he left New
York. What IS he up to? Does he really
want to be Boss of the Universe? Does he
really consider himself God chosen to depict
the frailties and follies of mankind, while he
remains so densely blind and deaf to his own?
Is he to really dominate the Republican party
and the country at large! Are we never to
learn Of him sitting peaceably and quietly at
his desk, turning out copy" for that most
generous Ito him) magazine? The New York
Sun has tried to pierce the future in order to
learn the result; it hasn't been very successful.
The Baltimore Sun asks: what is Roose-
velt's game? What dark purpose lies behind
the mysterious maneuvers which now amaze
and puzzle the country? What will he do
IN 1912! There are, of course, plenty of
wizards who profess to answer with sure
knowledge. The New York Sun, for example,
is firmly convinced that the colonel plans to
grab the Republic as William of Normandy
grabbed Albion. His scheme, according to
that esteemed gazette is to spring upon
horseback Cor perhaps wolf, elephant, or hip
popotamus- back rally the anarchists, Social
lists and train-robbers of the land about him,
raid all the banks, lynch the bankers, burn
the venerable jurists of the Supreme Court at
the stake, heave the Constitution overheard

LINE PROVES A JONAH
Fort Dodge, Des Moines & Southern
RaiIro ad Seeks to Abandon Branch Of
Newton g. Northwestern and Towns
Affected Register objeetions-Situa-
ton is Complicated.

Fort Dodge, Dec. 5.-The old Newton
and Northwestern is proving Jonah
for the Fort Dodge, Des Moines &
Southern railroad. The receivership
established a few months ago is said
to have been caused by a desire to re-
tire lot of worthless Newton &
Northwestern paper. And now part
of the old coal road is causing more
trouble.
The Tt. D.. D. NJ. & s. has notified
the state railroad commissioners that
they have abandoned that part of the
Newton & Northwestern which is be-
tween Des Moines Junction and New
ton. The residents of towns along the
line Cambridge, Loring, Farrar. Mingo.
Goddard, Metz, Newton and ColfaS
have presented a petition to Judge
Smith Mcpherson in Des Moines asking
that the road be compelled to operate
the line. The railroad company says
they are in the hands of receivers and
have not the capital to operate the line
at loss.
Freight agents for the various roads
into Fort Dodge have been notified by
the car service association not to ac-
cept freight for any Of the towns on the
abandoned line. Freight may be ac-
cepted for any other part of the Fort
Dodge, Des Moines & Southern. the
notice says. This means that the in
terurban has abandoned the proftless
strip of track.
The problem brought up by the
abandoned of the line is one that is
puzzling attorneys.
Suppose the court orders the COM
pany to operate the line and the COM
pany can not borrow money on which
to do so. or what would happen if en-
forced operation Of the entire line
would throw the entire company into
bankruptcy. The attorneys and the
court are much puzzled to know what
to do in the case and it is very likely
that the line will in the end be aban-
doned.
