The many friends of the pop
ular dentist, DR.. F. w. Num-

cation in an extended trip which
will embrace California and the
Pacific coast. His father accom-

be worthy of such a father and
to appreciate him and love and
respect him as DR.. Mum does his
father.

Morris Again Winner.

H. F. Morris is being congrat-
ulated on distributing the largest
amount of flour in the year just
past for the Marion Milling CO.
The amount in dollars and cents
being $3879.66 and more than
any two of his competitors. This
proves two things namely, that
the product of the Marion Mill
is o. X, and that Morris is a
popular fellow, which facts we
are all glad to subscribe to. May
1911 be his best year in his buSi-

Democratic Platforms Are
Regulated by ReaCtiOuaries

I'm all the checkered history Of
Kentucky there was never a
more peculiar performance than
that Of the Kentucky State Exc
cutive Committee at its meeting
in Louisville Thursday.
AT one moment it voted for a
primary for the selection Of a
State ticket, on the ground that
this was the best and fairest
means Of getting the wishes of
the people.
The very next moment, it
voted down a proposal to secure
the choice of the people for
United States Senator in a SINH
lar manner.
BY voting down the latter
proposition, the democratic party
Of Kentucky splits upon the plat
forms of the party. turns its
back upon the solemn promises,
pledges and protestations Of the
organization in three different
national conventions, and stamps
itself as thoroughly reactionsry.
If there is one thing more than
another to which the Democracy
stands pledged by its platforms
and the speeches Of its leaders
il is the popular election Of Sen
atOrs. Carrying out this princl-
pie. 1t would be the logical thing
for the party 10 determine its
senatorial nominee by party vote.
! IL is significant and educatiOna.
TO observe that the only ones
who favored the senatorial prim-
airy were the friends Of Con-
gresham Ollie James, while the
ones who opposed it were the
friends ex-senator T. II. Paynter,
former Governor J. c. w. Beck
nam. Harry Weissinger and J..
G. Mayo.
Ollie James had the courage to
come out in the open and demand
that the party stand by its plat
forms. None Of his opponents
had the courage to come out and
advocate the reverse policy.
The inner meaning Of the COM
mittee's action was elucidated
b. the remark in reactionary
Democratic paper that if there
had been popular primary nc
one but James would have had 3
chance.
While we are on the subject
let us look at the men who are
out in the open for Senator.
Congressman Ollie James, OF
the First Kentucky District, who
fought for a primary, has for
years been one of the most
trusted advisers of w. J. Bryan,
is one Of the most powerful de.
baters in Congress, and one OF

Assailant of Sentry
Remains a Mystery

Assaulted by an unidentified man while
on sentry duty at the Navy Yard gate
near Sixth and M streets southeast, Pri-
vate Frank McKendrick, Of the Marine
Corps, Is in the Naval Hospital today
with sprained back. His condition Is
not serious.
After secret Investigation by the
police of the Fifth precinct, who failed
to obtain any clue to McKendrick's as
sailant, captain Mulhall late last night
called upon the Detective Bureau Tor
assistance. According to McKendricks 8
story, he was walking his post when a
man came up behind him and struck
him across the shoulders with a heavy
club or gun stock. He fell, and believes
, another person then struck him with a
stone. TO-.
Drawing his revolver, he fred several
times at his assailants, but in the dark
ness they escaped before assistance
reached him. Several theories as to the
motive for the assault have been ad-
vanced by the police. One Is that an
effort was made to overpower McKend-
rick to rob him, while another Is that
he may have been attacked by fellow
marines

WRIGHT STRIVING
TO MAKE AVIATION
! SAFE AND POPULAR
Experiments to Find New
Way of Successful
Gliding.

WRIGHT CAMP, KILL DEVIL HILL.
N. c., Oct. 1S.-Here in the back yard Of
the universe, on the slopes Of the bleak
and desolate sand piles, Orville Wright is
working day and night in an effort to
perfect the aeroplane to such a degree
that II will be as safe as an automo-
bile.
Five flights were made yesterday,
three Of the glides being made from the
summit of Hill Thirteen by Alexander
Ogilvie, the British aviator. who has
the distinction of having been the Sec
ond man t~male an aerial fight In
England. The problem that Mr.. Wright
has come here to solve is believed to
have been undertaken at the sugges-
ton Of Mr. Ogilvie. who, in addition
to being an expert air pilot, Is said to
be mechanical genius.
Two important facts were demon
strated by Mr.. Wright and Mr.. Ogilvie
in their flights. First, the controlling
pp prpyed so % ths, ose tse con1pol ef Of % .he new @
biplene by the operator is more nearly
perfect; and, second, the machine with
cut the aid OF motor or other artificial
power can be driven higher into the
air than the elevated point from which
Mr.. ogilvie glided of the slope of Hill
Thirteen at a height of ninety feet and
scared 120 feet into the air. With a
twenty-five or thirty y-five-mile wind 1t
Is believe ed the Few biplane will soar
several hundred feet high and remain
eloft many minutes.
While Mr.. Wright still insists that he
has come to- the windswept Ssa ndbar.
which, is as dreary and uninviting as
the Sahara desert, for a vacation. he
IL working harder than any time
since he first began. his experiments
With a flying machine. Members Of
the XIII Devil Ljfe-Saving Station, who
have known Mr.. Wright for ten years.
are certain he Is here to perfect an
aerial invention that will make aviation
more popular.
1t is believed the Wright brothers
have obtained such control of the aero
plane that the stopping of a motor on
q pCwer-driven machine will not place
the life of the operator in jeopardy.
When the reporters ask Mr.. Wright
about this he laughs or repeats his
statement that he is only here for a
vacation. Provisions have been stored
in their shanty for a stay of thirty
brother in the tests.
