One Washington correspondent has become famous
by his assumption of the position of historian of what
is termed the Progressive Republican movement. Such

Representative Mccall for the Republican regulars,
Senator Cummins and Representative Norris for the

The car driven by Oldheld is the

The one desire of the civilized
world seems in this generation to be
to get there first" New inventions,
be they ever so hazardous, are
snapped up with rapidity by excite
.ment loving men who are ever will
ing to brave death in making the idea
practicable.
Recently some imaginative person
tried unsuccessfu1y in New York to
start company for the promotion
of a new kind of pneumatic railway
that was to revolutiOnize travel The
idea was to have constructed a huge
tube into which could be placed a
cylindrical proiectile large enough to
seat comfortably a dozen persons.
This was to be driven through the tube
by compressed air with speed ap-
preaching the quickness of the light
ning's fash, all the way to Philadel-
phia: The proIectile was to be built
of aluminium strengthened by heavy
( bands Of steel The inventor claimed
that the trip between the two cities
could be accomplished in about two
minutes
The imaginative mans visionary
scheme did not find favor. and no
capitalists would listen to him. 1t IS
safe to say, however. that had auv
such apparatus been built. there
would be scores of adventuresome
devotees of speed mania who would
fight for chance TO be inside the

WO questions seem to be the
most important problems of
the age They are Where is
the speed limit?" and How
fast it it possible to travel a given
distance?"
Latter day miracles" persons
whose memory carries them back
ward half a century or more have

query of Is this to prove the I'M

When the first automobiles reached
such perfection that a speed of Is
miles an hour was reached without
injury to machines or drivers the
public gasped. Yet, little by little,
this record has been changed until
recently Barney Oldfeld, the widely
known chauffeur, dashed recklessly
