ROOSEVELT WILL SPEAK OUT
FOR BEVERIDGE.

As the result Of a conference be
tween Senator Beverage OF Indiana
and Col Theodore Roosevelt, the for
mer President has agreed to deliver an
address IN Indiana, in which he VIII
speak out for the reelection OF Mr..
Beverage to the Senate. This an
.lOuncement opens up the way TO ali
manner Of political reflection. Senator
Beverage Is thoroughly identified with
the Insurgents IN the Senate. voted
against the cariff bill. refused 10 sup
port many OF the features Of the Ad-
ninistration railroad bin, and helped
TO change that bill into the form in
which 1t finally passed; he was one
OF the men aimed at by Attorney Cen
eTaI Wickersham in his Chicago speech
reading the insurgents out OF the Re
publican party, and, in short, has been
thoroughly at war with the old regime
IN the Senate led by Senator AIdrich,
which Is the regime President TAFT
has seen fit to support.
1t has been announced that Colonel
Roosevelt VIII 90 TO Massachusetts,
and speak for Senator Lodge, and this
has been a disappointment to the in
surgents In Congress who have felt
that to speak for Lodge did not jiBe
well with the idea that Roosevelt

Lodge 1t Is doubtful if much political

WELLMAN'S PROPOSED AIR
SHIP FLIGHT TO EUROPE.

Having abandoned the quest of the
North Pole. which another has discov-
cred and which Is therefore no longer
an unknown part Of the world, Walter
WelIman has now resolved on being
the pioneer in the crossing of the At
Iantic by airship- Mr. Wellman and
his associate in this enterprise pro
pose to sail the air from New York
to London In a monster diTigibIe, the
America, with a lifting capacity OF
twelve tons. This would enable it to
carry a crew OF SIX men, with all
necessary supplies and equipment.
Propelled by two engines, the dirigible
would be capable Of making thirty
miles an hour Besides, II is the in
teution to make the trip in Septem-
Der, when the winds generally are from
the west This should accelerate the
speed Of the dirigibIe considerably. and
it Is calculated the trip can be made
in less time than the fastest steamers
make the journey from Nc Eo-' s =
Queenstown
An interesting experiment this, truly,
but the public viii not be inclined to
take 1t with any great degree of Sc
robustness until it has actually been
attempted and, If not success, at
least some showing Of success made
Mr.. WeIIman's experiments with the
use of the dirigible in the Arctic re-
gions were unfortunate. At one time,
he barely left the coast Of Spitzbergen,
and at another time he had to hunt
out landing place on an ice pack
after travelling thirty-two miles. The
dirigiFIe then lost its guide rope, which
was also fashioned 10 carry food sup

PEOPLE ENTITI ED TO SHARE
IN PR OFITS.

The street railway companies Of
Washington seem to be operated on
the theory that they exist solely for
the benefit of stockholders. The atti-
tUde of those IN charge of the proper
ties apparently is to pay little
heed 10 the interest of the community
The officials seem TO think they are
comforting a great boon on Washing
ton by furnishing any sort Of trans
portation. The idea that patrons have
any rights worthy Of consideration
does not seem TO have occurred to those
who guide the destiHies of these cor
pOTatiOns.
By their attitude on the closed car
issue, the street railway managers put
themselves N the position Of saying to
the public: I'VE don't have to con-
slider you. These are our properties
Well handle them as we please. What
have YOU to say about it,-anywayz
It's none OF your business. We're not
dependent on you for profits Ride or
walk, it's all the same 10 Us"
Wherein the street railway manag-
ers are nightly mistaken. Every
community has an inherent interest in
its public service corporations, and
everywhere except IN Washington the
people have the power 70 make them
selves heard on public service policies
In a great many communities they ex-
ercise that power. The public service
corporations and tie people are de-
pendent on each other. Neither can
get along without the other. Neither
can prosper unless each gives consider
alton to the interests Of the other.
The Washington street car compan-
les are. ProsPerous-and 1t Is the PeO-
pie Of this community who have made
them so. It Is self-aPParent, then,
that the people are entitled to every
possible advantage that the companies
can give them by turning their prosper
itv into better service The earnings
Of the companies are produced by the
nickeIs Of passengers When these
nickels constitute a sum sufficient to
enable the managers 10 pay expenses
Of operation and a fair return on the
investment Of their stockholders, the
passengers are entitled to get back the
surplus IN reduced fares and improved
service. Out IN Chicago this principle
was held to be good by the courts
with the result that % per cent Of the
gross receipts Of Chicago surface lines
Is now turned into the city treasury
every year and used for the general
/ benefit Of the community IN helping
meet the cost of conducting the city's
business, thereby making the peoples
taxes Just that much less
Washington enjoys a fairly good
street car passenger rate. In so far a:
the number Of cars operated Is con
cerned. service on most lines Is salts
factory Employees receive fairly good
wages. Stockholders reap a fair re-
turn on their holdings, and the com
panies still have money left over al
the end of each year. In view Of these
conditions. It Is nowise unreasonable
/ for patrons TO demand comfortable

should provide such ears without fur

10 the Edf1or OF The Washington Times:
Processing Christians. that is, church
Members, yea. and even the clergy in

than Il was addressed.
Regular and statec prayers offered by
a salaried Government employe before

as a prayerful spirit. and prayers offer

IN the spflit Of the teachings Of Christ.
would not be asked TO pray again. if
