Business Men
 In New Britain
 Want Parcels Post
Especial from United Press.)


 New Britain June Progressive businessmen of this city, today, warm- ly supported the action of a major ity at the yesterday meeting of the local buSineSsmens association in re- fusing to support a resolution against a national parcels post. The matter came up in the form of a communi- cation from the State Businessmen's Association directors embodying the resolution in the parcels post bill of Representative Sulzer. After warm debate the resolution was defeated II to D. Probably at the next meeting of the local businessmen a motion will be made to adopt resolutions in favor of parcels post
 c. J. White spoke against killing the parcels post bill. He said a na- tional parcels post ought to help his business He thought John Wana- makers reasons why a bill had not been passed long ago still held good, namely, the presence of the three big private express companies.
 F. J. Porter thought it was up to the local association to support the State directors. D. McMillan favored a parcels post.

LIFE AND LIMB.

Ihe Indiana Union Traction Co,
has done good work for the educa-
lion OF the people in the matter of
taking proper precaution before thew
cross a street where there is car
line, and also in calling attention to
the dangers incident TO street ears,
automobiles and steam cars.
The way the company did this was
10 ask the school authorities to help
them get before the pupils the facts
by having read on Monday, Oct. =,
IN ever school through which the
tracks of the company run, cir
eular letter telling the dangers of
running IN front of ears, playing
about the car tracks, and crossing
streets without looking for ears and
automobiles.
The letter also called attention to
the proper way to alight from cars.
Many accidents occur to women es-
pecially because they alight facing
backwards instead of forwards.
The |. L. T. company is deserving
of praise for this good work. While
II will IN the end be benefit to
them, the benefits to the public will
also be marked and should be appreci
ated.

state organization that shall repre-
sent the rank and file of republic

significant because every honest and
unselhsh republican newspaper man
in the state has the same view.
They see so much of politicians and

Mr.. Lockwood's prohibition
ideas may not be accepted in the
same acquiescing spirit beyond that
point where it will be agreed, at
least by the rank and file. that the
party should be entirely free from
any domination by the liquor ele-
ment. Statewide prohibition is a
doubtful method of reducing the
liquor traffic and always will be un-
til the people can find and elect men
who. will enforce liquor laws always
and without fear or favor. Such
men are not easily found.
.'But the domination of the state
republican organization by the liquor
system, if. such be a fact, is dam

this be fact the rank and file can
not act too quickly or too vigorous

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS


Commenting on the statement that
the Wright brothers have invented
contrivance that will enable men to
actually fly like birds, the Indian
apolis Star says:
From the time that man first
found himself on earth with no
means of locomotion save his two
legs, and saw above hi mthe birds of
the air flying at their ease, he must
at intervals until this day have had
moment sof longing for wings. Even
before the fall the thought of their
desirability. must have occurred to
Adam. and when be was driven from
the Garden he would doubtless have
been glad if he and Eve could have
expedited their departure into hid
ing place by flying. "Oh. that / had
wings like a dove" cried the psal-
mist, and in thus speaking expressed
a wish that every human creature
must have had when<he would be at
rest or would wander far, or would
escape from the windy storm and
tempest /"
When the Wright brothers invent
ed the airship it was hailed as the
realization of common dream. Man
would be freed from hampering re-
strietions now and would fly, it was
said, and many, it may be believed,
were the visions Of aerial freedom.
The airships came and were wonder
full in their way, but, after all. their
flight was not the fight of birds. but
q clumsy and imperfect substitute
and imitation. 1t was remarkable
that man could go up into the air at
all, but he went with much maehin-
cry and with little security from fail
ing, not with the certainty and per-
feet poise of the eagle and fhe !hswk,

INDIANA's CONSTITUTION.
Supreme Court Will Decide the Cues
ton of Legislative Jurisdiction.
Over Matter.

Following a meeting of counsel in
the TON Marshall" constitution
case in Governor Marshall's Office
Wednesday, it was announced that
an appeal to the Supreme Court will
be taken by the defendants over
Judge Remster's recent adverse de-
cision.
The attorneys at the meeting in
cluded Dan w. Simms of Lafayette,
State Senator Evan r. Stotsenburg,
Frank S. Roby and Attorney General
Honan. The appeal was decided on,
according to Mr.. Honan, because of
the Importance Of the proposed new
constitution and the wish of the
counsel for tie Governor to have the
question settled definitely.

or even of the tiny sparrow. The
airship was a pleasing invention and
at the same time a disappointment.
Now comes word that the Wright
brothers, who 60 their quiet way un-
disturbed by what other men are do
ing, are said to have invented a con-
trivance that will enable man actu-
ally to fly as the bird flies, to man.
ipulate wings and to be free from
the need of motor machinery. This
announcement a few years ago would
have been received with jeers and
classed with perpetual motion stories,
while the Wrights would have been
hidden to read the pathetic tale of
Darius Green, who thought he had
made a like invention. But the
Wrights today can not be dismissed
so lightly. 1t is difficult to believe
that they have devised such con-
trivance, but their new ventures COM
mand respectful treatment because
of what they have accomplished, and
the public will await with hopeful.
expectant interest the appearance of
the new machine
Meanwhile it may indulge in lit
tie speculation. If it is to come to
pass that man may attach wings to
his shoulders and fly off above our
heads, will he be able to assume the
particular form of fight that he may
fancy at any given time. Can he
swim calmly about in the sky like
the hawk or the eagle? Can he go
tapping through the air like the
Cow? Can he dart and eyrate like
the swallow? Can he 90 swift'v and
for long stretches like the migrating
was,r fowl? And how many wings
VII serve his purpose? The sera-
phrms seen by Isaiah in his 'is.rn
had each six wings: with twain he
covered his face. with twain he COW
cred his feet. and with twain did he
f1y.' Shall we each have six, if we
will. and use them all or each pair
singly, as We desire in swifter or
slower fight? The news emanating
from the Wright workshop stirs Gu
riosity and imagination.
