A More important Question

The Bennington Banner is everlast-
ingly right in its idea about the sell
ection of the Vermont delegation to
the Republican national convention,
as The Messenger views it. Here
we are, eight months ahead of the
convention, spending our time and
energies debating the choice of eight
men, when, as matter Of fact, We
don't know, first, how the state will
line up toward this great issue next
spring, and second, how the men we
are picking out now will stand two
ard the question when it comes.
We have been so long intrenched
behind a great overgrown, one might
almost say stupidity sluggard, Repub-
lican majority here in Vermont, that
we have got in the habit of thinking
that nothing can ever happen that
will not be ION our side" and of
invoking the dead weight of mere
habit-bound numbers at the polls to
take the place of active and sensi-
tive political self-consciousness.
II is time we walked up, before
some revolution drags us out of bed
in our nighties.
How is Vermont going to stand to-
ward the issues that now confront
the Republican party? That's the
question that is far and away super
ior to the mere choice of the mes
sengers that are to go to Chicago to
tell how she stands.-St. Adams
Messenger.

THE AERoPLANE
Interesting New Book Added to the

book. written by Claude Grahame-
White 1.-THE winner of the Gordon-Ben-
nett Aviation cup, 1870 and Harry

number of well known constructors of
machines and aerial pilots, will un-
doubtedly be the standard reference
work on all that has been done, or
attempted, or in progress for the ad-
vancement of aviation, for some time
to come.
The work of pioneers is first des-
cribed by one who actually witnessed
the early fights of Captain Ferber.
Santos Dumont, Wilbur Wright and
Henry Farman. The story of the ap-
plication of the petrol motor to aero
planes is told-how ii was that a suit
able propulsive force made flying pos
sible. This leads to the fascination Of
mems first flights, and 1t is explained
how the duration of aerial journeys
was heightened from seconds to min
utes TO hours. From this the reader
is taken to the feats of the present
day. All the most notable flights of
the worlds famous airmen are describ-
ed Records in high flying, speed,
cross-country, and oversee flights are
concisely tabulated. 1t is made posi-
BILE to ascertain, at glance, what the
most remarkable feats have been. A
special section of the book is devot-
ed to an analysis of the aeroplane ac-
cidents that have happened. Each
disaster is described, and, where pos
sible, an explanation is given A
specially compiled list, ALPHABETICALLY
arranged, gives the aviators of the
world with the aeroplanes they pilot,
and notes concerning their fights. The
building of aeroplanes is exclusively
dealt with, and finally come important
articles supplied by the most famous
authorities upon aviation.

An Opportunity.

The Greenfield board OF trade has
taken up the question Of the cost of
living in that town as compared 10

way in which the local board Of
trade can be of practical assistance

The second game was closer and

when Frendo took long diagonal
shot at the net, and the bali went

second half Punahou had severa
