TO SETTLE
The WAGER
TOMORROW
GLENN CURTIS AND JIM RADLEY
WILL HAVE CONTEST TO SET
TIE WHICH MACHINE CAN
START QUICKEST AND GET
HIGHEST IN A GIVEN TIME.


Los Angeles, Calf, Dec. 30-"Given
straightway course and fair wind,
could make 10 miles in less than
nine minutes" said Jimmy Radley,
driver of the Bleriot racing mono-
plane, today.
"I think the Bleriot can get of the
ground with shorter run than any
other machine in the world" added
the Englishman as he wadded fresh
fill into his famous pipe.
Now there's where you're wrong"
put In Glenn H. Curtiss, standing
near by. "Quick starting is my long
suit. I'm sure the Curtiss can get
into the air and mount to high alti-
tude faster than the Bleriot"
Radley's sporting blood was
aroused.
BET you $1,000 can get into the
air and arrive at specified altitude
faster than you can," he flashed at
Curtiss.
"Take you upon that, Mr.. Radley,"
said Curtiss quickly.
The wager was made and the
$4,000 was put up with a stakeholder.
The contest probably will be held to-
morrow which will be Los Angeles
day at the meet.

and bylaws of a permanent national
political organization. the platform
OF which shall be advancement and

other issues will be single tax, the
Initiative and referendum, the abol-

Heated discussions were engaged
in by those present on the question
of whether purely local and state Is
sues should be featured, OF whether
questions of national Importance
should be included in the propagan-
da of the new organization.
The majority favored the organizar
tion of a new party entirely uniden-
titled by title or politics with the ex-
listing Republican, Democrats, Pro-
hibition or Socialist parties, their
plan being to establish here the
nucleus of national party to be de-
voted entirely TO the interest of the
people as a whole, as against legis-
lation for privileged interests.
Great enthusiasm was manifested
by the delegates present. The meet
ing WIFI continue today and tomor-

Importance OF the matter as the tax coll

Ely HE HAD COLLECTED, and no set
Element could be had at all for the year
1909; each OF these officers replied
promptly stating that they had called
upon the governors secretary and he
advised that the commission would go
forward that night, but the letter that
was longed for. never came" Then a
second request was made upon Hon.
Philip Cook, secretary of state, entreat-
ing him to call upon the governor and
urge the attention that the Importance
of the matter demanded. and in reply to
this the ordinary received the commits
sion of Mr.. Knox, tax collector, BUT IT
WAS NEITHER DATED OR SIGNED.
The ordinary. Hon. j. D. Crawford,
then wrote a personal letter to the gov
ernor, Hon. Joseph NJ. Brown. AND
BEGGED THAT HE DATE AND SIGN
the commission, BUT HE FAILED TO
RECEIVE AN ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
OR A REPLY. The ordinary then wrote
the governors secretary, but he failed
to receive an Acknowledgement or a re-
ply. The legislature had now convened,
so the ordinary wrote to Capt. Ben Mill
kin, Waynes representative in the leg
islature, and asked that he aid his coun-
.ty in some way to get the important
m sitter attended to. Captain Milikin
replied stating that he had called upon
the governor and had been assured that
the commission would go forward on
the following night. A letter then came
from the executive department-but

error and mistake, but to this letter he

was again appealed to and the commits

only way it was secured then was BY
HIS GOING TO THE OFFICE OF THE
GOVERNOR AND REMAINING
THERE UNTIL THE COMMISSION
WAS FILLED OUT AND HE ACCOM-

then the ordinary did not fail to receive
