Mr.. Lewis II. Haney, aviation engl-
neer. sailed on the Prince August
Wilhelm in company with several
men for Colon to complete
arrangements for the aeroplane flight
Of Mr.. Clifford b. Harmon across the
Isthmus of Panama. The route to
DO covered by Mr.. Harmon Will be
gone over, and the line of flight de-
termined. Mr.. Harmon contemplates
leaving the deck of the S. S. Moltke
Of the Hamburg american lone on
his aeroplane when the ship first
enters the harbor. He will. therefore,
fly across a country totally unknown
TO him except for the description of
his engineer. Mr.. Haney viii arrange
for a landing place on the Pacific side
near Panama, whore a flag pole Will
be erected and a large American flag
win be flown on the day of the flight.
The interest this flight has aroused
throughout the country is indicated by
the readiness of several of the leading
newspapers to send representatives TO
accompany him,

The question Of what to do o
the new constitution seems to be oc-
cupying the minds Of a number Of
the delegates az well as voters. There
is only one thing to do and that is to
vote for il. OF curse there Is no
question but hat Il will be ratified by
the people. yet there are a few who
seem TO thing hat unless they regis
ter a kick things won't be Just right.
The republicans will of course sup
port the document and that will be
sufficient 10 ensure its safety. But
with the democrats IL Is different. A
number OF these are going TO oppose
IL. The News wishes to commend
those who are going to vote for 1t and
lend their support to see that II is
passed upon f%avorably by the people.
{. G. Davidson q good democrat with
a good record. and who represented
this county at the constitution. is GO
ing 10 vote for the constitution, and in
another part of this paper he gives
his reasons for doing SO. What he has
to say Is worthy of serious c~onsidera-
tion by those democrats who are dis
posed to vote against the document
Just because the republicans seem to
have had the balance Of power and
because 1t seems TO be more of a re-
publican constitution than n demo-
one.-Bard City News.

What we want to call attention TO
Is the fact that what has converted
Mr.. Walton to the support of the con-
~stitution is precisely the same in mat
ter Of principle by which Aldrich car
ried through the Payne-Aldrich tar
III bill. 1t Is the old pork barrel
method by which all iniquitous APP
preparation bills have been passed.
1t is the very method by which all
bipartisan machines are made to
control the graft of states n muni-
cipallties and rob the common geez-
err We are extremely sorry to see
anyone in the democratic party who
aspires to leadership take such a
course. The practice OF these things
in the republican party gave birth to
the insurgent movement. The same
seed will produce the same crop If
sown upon democratic ground. When
men trade off the right of taxation to
the interests for a mess of official
pottage the people have a right to
protest and protest we will.
We ask nothing of the democratic
party of this territory other thar it
stand for the rights of the masses
against the greedy demands Of the
classes. This such faithful and hon
est leaders rs Ferguson, Crist, Up
ton. ct al. are doing and their hands
should be upheld. If the hired plead
ers for special privilege think the
masses Of the party are going to fol-
low those who are willing to trade off
fundamental principles for a few APP
preparations and a chance at a few
offices, they are badly mistaken

There is a more widespread enthu-

the absolute Importance Of improving
the county highways. The people Of
Santa re have shown their enthu-
siastic desire for cooperation 70 the
end that a great highway may be
completed betwecn the capital and

personal enthusiasm into the cam

good will and support to tins under

rltory, the chance to get action on
