Scouting in the Air.

The practical value of our flying machines
of today in warfare will be given some sort
of test by the government experiments along
the Mexican border Some half dozen OF the
machines. in charge of army officers and mem
bers Of the signal corps, are delegated for scout
dutv--to-Wit watch the movements of the MeXI-
can troops and insurgents-with view OF de-
termining their value for such purposes
There is no doubt whatever of the result.
At present the greatest practical use OF the aero
plane would seem to be in war-or at least until
such time as a machine is made which will trans
port passengers in sufficient numbers to make
them of some utility for transportation purposes.
To be of some commercial value the aerial naVl-
gator must be able to carry considerable load,
and that point is far from being attained as yet.
But to make the flying machine of practical
use in war no such requirement is imposed. SO
long as it will sustain man or two and carry
a score so OF high explosive bombs 1t meets
every need Of warfare.
And that is enough-enough to revolutonize
present methods in the gentle art of Strengthening
men. They will never invent gun, nor dis
cover gunner, that from the ground Will be
able to hit a machine circling in the air faster
than limited express train And the man in
the air will have every advantage AS the re-
cent tests at the Preside, San Francisco, dem
onstrated. the man in the air can drop the bombs
wherever desired-which sounds bad for the man
on the ground who can't get behind tree. Vt
is no hard matter to form mental picture 81
what would happen to body of troops on the
ground with overhead dropping bombs
wherever he pleased There would be but one
thing for the stroops to do-hike for the tall
timber-and they wouldn't be long about do
ing it.
Whatever may be the ultimate development
of the flying machine for practical, everyday
use, there can be no doubt that it is destined to
revoutionize warfare. OF course, with both sides
in battle fortified with fotilla of airships
the conditions are equa--it would mean that
the initial engagement would always be fought
out in the air.

Most Important of All.

One of the surprising things about our polit
zeal system it develops in practice, is the
woeful lack of respect shown the office of mem
Der of the legislature. In a political campaign
we beat the air agitating the merits and de-
merits of this and that candidate for some adj
ministrative office and we pretend to pick out
the best man for the place. With the material
left over, the discards, we proceed to make up
a legislative ticket
1t is difficult to conceive why this is So The
position of member of the legislature is by far
the most important office to be filled at any
election. 1t is the office, of them all, where
the gift Of craftsmanship is required; the one
place. in political system, where any con
structive ability is required All our other offices
exact administrative talent and nothing else.
Most of them could be filled by an SIS week
clerk
And yet, ''any old thing will do for the tail
of the ticket-the legislative end. The fellow
who has failed to get one of the official plums
perhaps because he is unable to fill any posi-
ton requiring ability than that of dog
catcher-s cheerfully assigned one of the legs-
lative nominations.
The contempt of the politicians for the legis-
lative office is easily explained from the fact
that the pay is small but that fact hardly
plains the diffidence of the people themselves III
the matter Is it because they are habituated to
seeing so many nincompoops in the halls OF leg
slation?
IT, in order to get the best brains Of "a COM
munity to run for legislative office, it be neces-
sary to advance the scale of wages of our leg
slators then for heavens sake do it-and
quickly.
If a salary of $1,000 year, beside the SO
per day, will tend to raise the standard of our
craftsmanship, will give us more of ability and
brains in our legislative halls and less of sOrdid
political Influence let us try the experiment
The improvement would be cheap at the price
