Tomorrow.

There will be some sensational
flights by Aviators Jimmie" Ward and
Hugh H. Robinson from to 1880
O'Clock this and tomorrow evening. The
fact that the crowd was disappointed
Thursday has made the Curtiss avia-
tors especially DESTROYS of giving
doubly good exhibitions of flying to-
day and Sunday.
The program this afternoon will in
clude a race between Robinson and
Ward, a try for breaking his former
altitude height of $500 feet by Jim
mic" Ward, a cross country flight by
Robinson and some sensational
spiral" stunts by Ward.
If conditions are favorable, Jim
mic" will take up Hino Bredel, who,
together with his brother, Kurtz. has
made the first monoplane built in Kan
Sas.
An extra speciaT' program is be-
ing arranged for Sunday evening,
which win have as a feature bomb

the field to represent the funnel of
war vessel and the aviator will drop
oranges or something else available
from g. position in the skies, to test
the value of an aeroplanc as an aid in

of the art of flying when beginning a
few minutes before seven o'clock Fri
day evening they accomplished four
spectacular flights above the aviation
field. near Vinewood, making dips
and spiral glides" which caused the
eight or ten hundred persons present
to hold their breaths through fear that
the hird-like machines would come
crashing to the ground. No such
calamity transpired, however, and it
was apparent that the control which
the air men had over their crafts was
little short of marvellous.
A 25-mile wind was blowing all aft
ernoon and it was evening before the
aviators dared to combat with the ele-
ments. At $50 the crowd that had
for some time been enjoying the
shade of Vinewood park was notified
that the machines had been taken
from under cover, and that flights
We're about to be made, and it was just
few minutes later that Hugh Robin
son in his Lucky 49, started the pro-
peller in motion and rose gracefully
from the far end of the field and with
in a fraction of a minute was speeding
easily over the heads of the cheering
spectators. over the trees he went
and so far beyond Vinewood that the
spectators wondered if he would be
lost to view, but just here he made
a right turn, which is considered one
of the most difficult feats in avia-
ton.
He went back again to the north
side of the field and returned this time
in the same air path in which he
started out. but this time in front of
the onlookerS he made several sensa-
tionai dips which won the applause of
the enthusiastic spectators.
1t was when he was swinging around
the field the second time that his en-
CINE missed a number of times and he
kept right on in the same direction for
a mile or two, going out of sight for a
moment. The flight was of seven min
utes' duration.
No sooner than a landing had been
made-and the machine looked like a
great bird as IL lowered over the
ground-than Jimmie" Ward the
worlds youngest professional aviator
ordered his machine to be swung
around in position for a fight.

ease over the heads of the people in

COMBINATIONS

The following paragraphs are
taken from the annual report of
the directors of the American Tel
ephone and Telegraph company to
the stockholders and is food for
thought:
Corporate organization and COM
bination are the necessary and
logical solution of the problem of
caring for the wonderful develop
ment which has been going on all
over the world, and particularly in
this country, in the recent past.
Combination only can cope with
that Industrial development of the
present time which is far beyond
the scope of individual effort or
capital. In those good old times,
one man, with his own capital,
could carry on even the largest
operations.
The development of the arts, the
necessity of extensive laboratories
and experimental departments,
with technical stats competent to
keep abreast of modern progress
and find out how 10 utilize all of
everything, the large gross produce
ton at small margin of profit, the
large capital requirements neces-
sary to conduct business on these
lines; all these place modern indus
trial enterprises either beyond the
financial ability of any one indi-
vidual, or far beyond the amount
that any one individual wishes to
have in any one venture.
These corporate organizations
and combinations have become a
permanent part of our business
machinery; the public would not,
if it could, abolish them.
A public utility giving good ser
vice at fair rates should not be
subject to competition at unfair
rates.

THE LABOR QUESTION

Fourteen convictions was the
result of the trial for contempt of
the eighteen Lafayette and Louis
vile miners which ended last Fri
day in Judge Whitford's division
of the district court, Denver, where
the hearing occupied the whole
week. William Crawford, secre-
tary of district No. Is, United
Mine Workers of America, and
Edward L. Doyle, former president
of Lafayette local union, each we're
sentenced to one year in the county
Jail.
Jack Cassidy, marshal of La
fayette, and Dan Williams were
fined $3.50 and ten others were
fined $500 and cost and all CON-
mitted to Jail until the fine is paid
or until further order of the court.
A few months ago two McNam-
ara brothers were kidnapped in
Indiana and taken to Los Angeles,
charged with dynamiting and
Wholesale murder. More than
$25, 900 has been spent in securing
evidence for their conviction. An
Orchard has been found whose
wife is now in Los Angeles plead
ing with him to renounce his con-
fession.
j. j. Mcnamara stands high in
the ranks of union labor whose
members believe him innocent of
the crimes charged and assert the
prosecution is for the sole purpose
of destroying unionism.
The question naturally arises
will the Whltford methods and
the hanging of the McNamaras
settle the labor question? With
the destruction OF unionism, wise
men fear union labor will embrace
socialism.
A writer in the Atlantic Monthly
sounds the alarm as follows:
"The movement has now ac-
quired a momentum that will
carry it surely to some vital and
momentous outcome Of change in
the organization Of society. It is
a movement which moves contin-
uously, with no reactionary signs;
it is n movement of such nature,
in fact, that it seems likely to
burst some day into avalanches
and floods"
The labor question will never be
settled by force nor by edicts from
the courts.

GARDNER AGAIN

w. +. Gardner of Saguache, is
in print again oondemning the
state land board in substance for
selling state lands according to
the laws of the state to the highest
bidder. He claims these lands
are sold too high. That undoubt-
eddy is true, but the buyer and not
the seller is to blame. Mr.. Gard
ner's remedy is to give the lessee
one-half of the unearned incre-
ment. Mr.. Gardner's logic is along
the line of Henry George, but he
would apply it to the state and not
to decided lands held by individ-
uals.
He quotes San Luis Valley lands
as having been sold as high as &65.
This applies to sales of recent date
and not to lands sold five to ten
years ago. The law provides that
state and school lands be appraised
and sold Mt auction, provided they
are not sold below their appraised
value.
Mr.. Gardner would have the
land board disregard the law and
favor lessees.
When John j. Mcnamara was
arraigned before the criminal court
at Los Angeles on nineteen in
dictments charging conspiracy TO
murder, he pleaded lack Of juris-
diction in the court on the ground
that he had been brought into its
territory by fraudulent and unlaw.
full extradition proceedings; but
Judge Bordwell ovcrrulcd the plea,
holding that il WINS not within the
province Of the court TO inquire
how q prisoner had been brought

try him on the indictment when

LAST NIGHTS
BOUT A DRAW
Though Popular Decision Was
Favorable TO Brown
in A l0.R0UND BOUT
Brown Forced the Fighting from the
First and Gave More Punish
ment Than He Re-
ceived.

New York, March 4.--Valentine
(Knockoutl Brown the tow headed lit
tie New York lightweight, gained a
popular decision over Ed Wolgast, the
worlds lightweight champion, in a slash
ing l0.round bout last night at the Ma
tonal Sporting club OF America. Three
weeks ago Brown fought Wolgast at
Philadelphia and the crowd of 5000
that saw him fight last night voted him
a victory, although the law requires
that no decision be given.
Brown forced the fighting from the
start and on the whole gave more pun.
ishment than he received.
In the clinches Wolgast showed SUI
perior ringmanship with his infghting.
His tactics were so rough, however,
that they brought Kisses from the spec.
tators. Neither man was in distress at
any time during the bout and no blood
was drawn.
In the last round Brown was back
ing toward the ropes as Wolgast rushed
him. They clinched and rolled through
the ropes together and Brown would
have fallen from the ring had not a
cluster OF hands showed him back.
