Hamilton is perhaps the most reckless

his motor turned on full speed, point

ward and came darting toward the
earth. Just when the spectators were
beginning to think they would see a
tragedy, he changed the rudder and
flew away, having missed the ground
by only 20 feet.
Harmon, after being in the air 80
minutes, started off on a 12-mile cross
country fight. On his return, while
still three miles from the starting
place, he was seen to take a sudden
dip and come rapidly to earth.
After a considerable wait, in which
no word was heard from Harmon mol
evidence given by him that he and his
machine were all right, Hamilton, who
had come to earth but a moment be-
fore, climbed hastily into his seat and
started out in search of his associate.
He circled around several times and
made two landings before finding his
fellow aviator, whose plane had been
slightly disabled by an accident in
alighting.

A BLESSED A

Final paragraphs of President Taft's
10000 word message contain the dec.
larations for which the business world
has been waiting. From the position
which the real meaty part Of the mes.
sage contains, il looks as if the president
had given the matter the most careful
and longest consideration. The pith Of
the message is what the president has to
say about the interstate law
aud the antitrust law. He says that
there h been no time to test the effect
of the interstate amendments
made by the LAST congress. Three points
that the president formerly recommend.
90 were not covered in the amended law,
but, says the president in his message:
~ do not press the consideration of
any of these objects IN congress at this
session.
Only n few amendments 10 the inter
state commerce law are recommended,
and none are likely to cause bitter con.
%tention. No change what ever is sug.
gested in the antitrust law. "'Rather"
says the president, ''let us stop for a.
while and witness the effect Of the Wig.
orous execution of the laws on the stat.
ute books
In addition to enforcing the existing
laws the president believes that the ac.
tivities OF the government should be di.
rooted for the present to economy of
administration, enlargement of oppor.
t%unities for foreign trade, building Mp
home industries, and strengthening the
confidence Of capital in domestic invest.
ments.
The whole message is a conservative,
restrained pronouncement. There are
no preachments, nobody Is called a liar
or a %scoundrel, 10 phrases are coined
for the use of future makers of quo.
tation dictionaries. Yet, after all, a
