MASSACHUSETTS OUTLOOK.
BOTH SIDES CONFIDENT
Odds of Two to One Laid That Foss
VIII Win.

Boston, Nov. THE voters have
heard the arguments, many OF them
have seen the candidates, and tomor-
row some four hundred thousand will
decide whether the republicans, with
Gov. Eben $. Draper at the head of
the ticket, shall continue in Office for
another year, or give place to the
democrats whose aspirant for the
highest Office in the state is Con-
gressman Eugene n. Foss, a former
republican. Odds of two to one were
laid today that Foss would win.
Both sides claimed the election to-
night the republicans by A. 900 and
the democrats by $4,000.
The democrats predicted a landslide,
which they say would sweep into Of
fee not only Mr.. Foss but the rest of
the state ticket q majority of the con-
gressional delegation and a sufficient
number in the legislature to insure the
dsfeat next winter of United States
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge.
THE republicans stoutly maintained
that Governor Draper's position was
too strong to be threatened, that the
entire republican state ticket would
be elected, that the congressional del
egation would show but little change,
and that Senator Lodge had nothing to
fear from the incoming legislature.
That Governor Draper's plurality OF
$4,000 two years ago was cut to less
than 5000 last year is not orninous
from q republican standpoint, for 1t is
claimed by the republican leaders that
Foss is r weaker candidate than was
James Fl. Nahey last year.
The speecbmaking by Draper, Foss
and others continued well into the
evening.

The leaders of both sides made no
change in their predictions given out
the latter part of the week. The re-
publicans, figuring that although it is
an off year." the interest centered in
the fight for thu United States sena-
torship between former Governor Nc
Lean and Senator Morgan G. Bulkeley
will bring out the vote usually brought
out in a presidential year, and that
also many feel that they should help
keep the state in the republican column
as upholding the administration of
President Taft. The democratic lead
ers are confident that the voters will
support the ticket ON the merits Of is
sues presented. The Baldwin support
ers look 10 see their candidate elected
by q. majority of 5000 while the re-
publicans look for a vote of from 49,

The average parent is quick to re-
sent what may seem to be undue au-
tbority by g school teacher over a
child quick to maintain that the
school has no right to usurp the func-
tons of the home. But, on the other
hand, too many parents upconsciousJy
leave for the school to 90 precisely
what they hold it shall not do, what
they claim TO be the exclusive province
Of the home. In other words, many
parents of eesygoing dispositions neg
lect their duties in training their chill
dren and leave them to he performed
by the teacher, if they are performed
at all Such neglect, of course. throws
burdens upon the teacher which she
ought not to bear. and which moral
AMI civil laws never intended she
should bear. It is wrong to the child,
for in time it will come to understand
the situation and take advantage of it.
The old adage of spare the rod
and spoil the child" is not so popular
today as 1t used to be. because moral
suasion seems to have the upper hand
just now as the proper system of child
culture. But, nevertheless, the old idea
cannot safely be entirely neglected,
and here again arises a gross injus-
tice where parents are too lenient or
Indifferent and leave their work to be
done by the teachers.-Omaha Bee.

100000 People.
Saw Latham Fly
MANY PREDICTED THAT HE
WOULD BE KILLED,
IS HAILED AS A HERO
Establishes a Record for Over-c City
Flying at the Baltimore Aviation
Meet-A Most Remarkable Feat.

Baltimore, Nd, Nov This morn
ing Hubert Latham was probably the
only aviator in Baltimore, if not in the
United States, who believed that he
would accomplish a flight of nearly
25 miles, about half of it over this city.
Predictions that he would be killed.
that he Would4fail in the attempt and
that he would not even make the ven
ture were abundant.N y Tonight Latham
is hailed on all sides as hero who
has accomplished the impossible and,
establishing new record for over-city
flight. has disclosed new possibilities in
aviation.
For Prize of 5000.
The incentive for the flight was a
prize of $4,000 offered by the Sun and
the Evening Sun for trip over a pre-
scribed route from and returning to
the aviation field where Baltimore s
aviation meet is now in progress. La
thafl was to follow the course of the
Patapsco river from near the aviation
field to Fort McHenry, thence up the
inner harbor to and around the Sun
building, thence east to the city linn
it's, A mile north, and thence west to
Druid Hill park. down Charles street
to Baltimore, and thence again west,
and later southwest to the aviation
field. There was to be a short detour
for the benefit of Ross Winans, a
wealthy invalid, who, unable to leave
his home, offered an additional $500 if
Latham would come within his range
of vision.
Wonderful EvoIutons.
All this Latham accomplished, and
into the programme he injected some
wonderful evoiutions. He varied his
altitude from 400 to 1000 feet and had
to contend with wind blowing at from
seven to fifteen miles an hour. He
used his 5O-horse power Antoinette
-. LIT,
no stop after leaving the field until he
returned thereto. 1t is estimated that
the fight. which is understood to es-
tabafsh a record for over-city flying,
was Witnessed by half a million peo-
pie. Every point of vantage was oc-
cupied
Those well qualified to judge declare
the feat the most remarkable in avia- :
ton annals.
First Real Compositions.
There We're real competitions at the
aviation field, being the first thus far
shown the public here. Here, again
Latham came to the front by win1iiu g
first in the duration and also in the
distance contests Count Jacques de
Lesseps in his Bleriot took second
prizes in tAe-altitude and in the dura-
ton trials. and j. Armstrong Drexel,
sailing a Bleriot, won the fest prize
for altitude. His record was 1856
feet. while Count de Lesseps scored
i,T22. Latham took first duration
prize by remaining in the air q total
of Al minutes. 81 seconds, De Lesseps
remaining aloft so minutes AZ As sec
onds. i
The former tried for altitude, but
was compelled to descend after reach
ing a height of 500 feet because of
motor trouble. Three minutes before
the closing bomb was fired Willard be-
gan q short flight in a Curtiss biplane.
Lathau's fight over the city did not
count in his duration score, as it was
finished before the official opening of
the days flights.
