of the court insures the participation of
foreign aviators in the international meet
to be held next fall in this country.
There are now several practicable air.
planes in evidence. Some of them are of
the biplane style and others are mono
planes Many of them have been invented
by the men who are flying them, but the
tendency is to concentrate upon standard
types. The essential principles of flota-
ton, balancing and guidance are COM
paratively simple. The future develop
ment of the airplane. it is expected. will
lie chiefly in the adaptation of the gas
engine to this use, the use of lighter ma
terials and the securing of create power.
1t may be that patent rights are obtain
able in this perfection of the machine for
practical commercial purposes, and if so
whoever secures the exclusive right to
manufa cture the large MISUNDERSTANDING
airplane will be assured of great fortune
Meanwhile it may be questioned whether
there is any prohabil of monopoly in
the making of the exhibition machines
such as those now iii evidence.

Insurgency and the Republicans.

Some of the republican leaders are OF
| the opinion that the tide of insurgency
| has reached its crest. and will rapidly
recede They have hopes of both next
November. and November. 131. They
! comfort themselves with q little history
of discipline in their own party, and of
| laundering by the other party.
| Insurgency was rampant in the spring
| and summer of 1864 Things locked grave
indeed for the party in power. Mr.. Lin
| coin himself was anxious. though still
| brave. But as election day approached,
| and the true meaning of McClellan's nom
| ination appeared, the country thumped
| its forehead, turned everything over in
| It's mind and decided to renew Mr.. Lin
| coin s commission. There was coed
deal of Impotence with the operations in
the field, but the friends of the Union
would not surrender. Patriotism and
discipline on the one side, and laundering
| on the other saved the day.
insurgency rose to a high tide in 1872
Some of the ablest of the republican
leaders. and three of the foremost of the
republican newspapers, openly revolted
against Gen. Grants course in the White
House. and began negotiations with the
democrats. But the Greeley nominate
and campaign brought everything to the
ground with q crash. and the republicans
won in November with ease.
Fer more than two months after the
nomination OF Gen. Garfield in 1850 the
republicans were extremely anxious. Gen
Grant, and Mr. Conkling, and Gen. Lo-
gan, and Don Cameron were accounted
as insurgent sulkers the republicans
feared and the democrats hoped that they
would take no part in the contest, and it
was clear that if they remained inactive
| thousands of votes in New York, Illinois
and Indiana would be lost to the ticket
| But they came around in time. Besides.
| the nomination of Gen. Hancock had not
caused the enthusiasm expected, and the
democratic campaign languished.
/ So now. There is d good deal of dis
content in the republican party The
tariff is not alone the cause of it. Patron
age has contributed Il share, and the
| railroad question has caused some trou-
| BILE. Then there are the men who want
Mr.. Roosevelt back, and are pulling every
wire that they think leads TO him We
are told that if the election We're held
tomorrow the republicans would be wiped
of the map. But it is over four months
away. and those months will witness a
tremendous effort to unite the republican
factions.
History may repeat itself. Not a few
eminent republicans think it will and
that after the country caIlvasses the
whole situation it will decide in favor of
their party.

Airplane Injunction Dissolved.

From the outset f.heavier-than-air avi
alton there has been a feeling that no
monopoly on devices could well be main
tanned. The claims of the Wright BROTH
ers to priority of invention in regard 10
certain supposedly essential features of
the airplane were at first regarded as
possibly menacins the early development
of the art, a fear which was accentuated
when the pioneers secured iniunctions
against Curtiss and Paulhan TO prev nt
them from using their own machines
pending the settlement of proceedings
to punish heterogeneous. Yesterday the
United States court of appeals at New
York set aside the injunctions and thus
freed the other aviators from the him
drance placed upon them by the Wrights,
though the latter are still prosecuting
their suits for the infringement of their
patents. In all Likelihood this action

literally stories put in circula ton about
the cost in dollars and cents of a spirit

never receives the salary reported by the
fervent and ina gnatiye press agent. The
estate left by a rich man is always null
tiplied five-fold for gossiping purposes.
An unusual winning at cards. or in the
grain pit, or the stock market or at the
race track, grows as the story is repeat
ed, until the winner is soon unable to
recognize the real pile.
So in politics. Round numbers and big
numbers are popular They alone attract
attention. Mr. Hanna was a business
man with large credit in New York. and
the story followed the first Mckinley
election that Wall street had been Obliged
to come down with six millions of dol
lars to help the cause along. Mr. Whit
ney was rich and lavish spender in all
things he touched, and Mr.. German had
the ear of Wall street to a greater de-
gree than any other democrat in the
country, and they were said to have
shaken down the street fer enormous con-
tributions in 1892 in Mr. CleveIand's be-
half. But it is safe to say that in neither
case was the sum reported anywhere
near the sum collected.

The Senate and Popular Elections.

The Senate has again decided against
the proposition to elect the members of
that body by popular vote. Neither sur
prise nor discoura cement need be felt by
the friends of the movement. Il was
never stronger with the country than
now, and there is every reason to be-
lieve that it's strength will increase. In
time even the Senate will yield.
As is known, a workab BILE remedy has
been found fer the old and discredited
form OF procedure. Voters are already
expressing themselves as TO candidates
fer the Senate Some of the most useful
senators now in commission were chosen
by what in effect was popular express
sion. They submitted their claims in
advance to the people, and in that way
secured instructions which the legisla
lures afterward obeyed
If this method is strengthened a little
II will answer every purpose, even though
the Senate for some years longer should
hold out against a direct popular choice
at the polls. All now necessary is that
when a legislature has been instructed,
either by primary or by convention,
the instructions shall be kept Public
sentiment should make ii impossible for
a legislator in such circumstances to vio-
late what is a plain party and personal
duty. We all know what would happen
to a presidential elector who should vio-
late the terms of his office. He would
render himself infamous politically, and
he might inperil his physical life.
Why then should legislators who have
accepted support at the polls as the re-
suit of party regularity be permitted 10
turn their backs after election on a most
important part of the program which
carried them to victory? The obligations
in the one case should he made as bind
ing as they have long been in the other,
and a violation o. them should be punish
ed swiftly and severely.
In only few cases have men failed
in this duty. and in no instance have
such men escaped censure for their con-
duct. They have either been retired
from office and now live under political
ban at home. or await such a DOOM
They have found il impossible TO square
themselves with outraged constituencies,
and are either under formal charges. or
strong suspicious OF misconduct.
This is government of the people, by
the people and for the people, and the
Closer all important political offices are
brought to the people the better. The
Senate is nigh. but the people are higher.
