There is no longer any question
that the flying machine has ar
rived" There was just as much
doubt a few years ago as to the
practicability Of the automobile
as there is now of the aeroplane.
Motorcars have become all too
common, and in a few years
flights from Washington and
Baltimore to New York will at
tract no more attention than a
weekend run in an automobile.
The motorcar racers who thrilled
the public so short a time ago
are being supplanted in popular
favor by aviators, who are speed
ing through the air with promise
of no less velocity than the
speed-mad chauffeurs attained
on land.
This is the age of miracles.
Even the flying machine is only
one more step in the path Of
progress, and in few years that,
too, will be supplanted by some
new wonder which will startle
the world for a while and give
way in it's turn to some still graf
er miracle of human genius.

Baltimore Sun.
From the earliest ages the idea
of flight has taken hold Of the
imagination Of man. It's seeming
impossibility bafled ingenuity
and daring for thousands of
years. First the land was con-
CURED, then the sea brought un-
der dominion. But the air de-
fed man for so many centuries
that it's navigation was regarded
as a wild dream, like a trip to
Mars or signaling to the sun. Not
many years ago a few ardent
minds turned their attention to
the subject. At last, in 1903. two
young Americans, after long ex-
pertinent, devised a machine
heavier than air that would
actually fly. The old dir
gibles,'' the Zeppelins, Bald
wins and Beacnys, were
merely floating balloons, and the
Improvement was in securing
control Of their movements. But
the aeroplane was the first real
flying machine. T" In a year or
two there has been more prog
ress in the art of flying than in
a dozen centuries before.
Even a year ago, after the feats
of the Wright brothers, many
doubted the practicability Of the
aeroplane and regarded it as a
mere toy. Today its efficiency is
we'll established. The fight of

press train, will scarcely be re-

world had hardly ceased to thrill
at the feat of Bleriot in flying
across the English Channel be-
fore Orville Wright was carrying
a passenger at Fort Myer and
rushing to Alexandria at 40 miles

from London to Manchester,
England, 100 miles, was accom-
plished in IL hours, April %. On
May 80 Glenn Curtiss flew from
Albany to New York, 1877 miles,
in l52 minutes nearly S. miles

Stuart Rolls doubled Bleriot,s
feat by crossing the English
Channel and returning, without
alighting, in 80 minutes. On the

Republicans the first beating in 80
years, and scoring a victory, the mag
nitude of which astonished the most
sanguine party followers
The advancement of Col. Frederick
w. Plaisted, four times mayor of Au-
gusta, to the Governorship was expect
ed by few politicians; a change in
the complexion of the Congressional
delegation was thought possible; but
putting the Legislature, which will
chose a new United States senator, in
doubt found the Democrats dazed with
success and without a candidate to
succeed Eugene Hale.
Col. Flaisted, the Governor elect, is
the son of the late Harris NJ. Plaisted,
the Fusion Governor of 1881 and 50,
but where the father won in the cleo
ton of 1880 by a scant $50 votes, the
son today goes up to the Capitol with
a plurality larger than that given two
years ago to his defeated Republican
opponent, Gov. Bert M. Fernald of Po
land.
The victorious Democratic leader is
young man in point of age, but an
old hand in the political game.
Col. Plaisted was born in Bangor in
1864, but did not marry until two years
ago He has always been Democrat
and received his title while serving on
