until the character OF that report is
known they cannot say whether they will

Aeroplane Great
Aid to Italians

ROME. Via Frontier, oct. 90.-Official
reports from Trpoli describe the great
value of the aeroplane in the war. BY
their "Reminiscences It has been possible
to learn several hours in advance the
movements, the strength and sometimes
the efficiency of the enemy. In this way
the Italian commander has been able to
distribute his troops in such a manner as
to make almost certain the repulse of an
attack from any direction whatever.
Military critics here are Of the opinion
that when a signalling system from the
aeroplane has been perfected the real
direction OF engagements will devolve
upon officers in these machines. Accord
ing TO further official reports the Turks
have resorted to all methods of opposing
the invaders, including the poisoning Of
wells. This, however has failed of its
object, as in compliance with the orders
OF General Caneva, nobody is allowed TO
touch water without its first having been
scientifically examined.

Ed Eberhart, Jacob Ulrich and O.

c. E. Wise and J. E. Reynolds
spoke briefly. Mr.. Wise referred to
the good work that has been done
on the Madison Lake road and the
spirit with which the movement has
been taken up to make the highway
between Madison Lake and the twin
cities a state road.
Mr.. Nyquist told how the firm he
was connected with few years
ago-donated certain per cent of
their sales to a good roads fund
and with the 5000 thus raised to-
gether with an appropriation of $500
from the county a start was made
in the improvement of the Madison
Lake road.
After a few more remarks one of
the best good roads meetings ever
held in Blue Earth county ad-
journed.
Mankato Will Help.
Inasmuch as the business men Of
Good Thunder have contributed so
literally toward the, improvement of
the road, and the farmers have sig
nified willingness to give assist
ance, it is quite likely that the Man
kato Commercial club will be willing
to appropriate large sum to aid
in the work in hand. The most
excellent start that has been made
by those interested in the road GER
tainly will be an incentive for Man
kato to give the Improvement of
that highway first consideration. The
county will no doubt appropriate a
handsome sum and with the state
aid the road can be improved with
ease.
Several of the Good Thunder rep
resentatives expressed themselves as
being in favor of holding good
roads meeting in that village.

Following the suggestion of The
Free Press in recent issue, the
city council this morning took up
the matter of ventilation in the
city hail. Commissioner Bangerter
brought up the ACCESSIBILITY of max.
ing an investigation of the ventila-
ton system in the Hubbard mill
office, called the Hackney system,
as described recently in this publica.
ton with view of adopting such
system for the city hall. Mayor
Taylor moved that a letter be writ
ten to the board of control first ask
ing their advice on the matter and
suggesting that new city hall is
under consideration but that if this
system proved satisfactory, it would
be installed and the city hall be
used for a few more years.
Will Prove Good System.
That this system should prove
amply good enough for the city hall
seems evident The ventilation at
the Hubbard mill office is about as
good as modern science can make
it, and as far as cost is concerned,
is very far below the usual systems
in use. The motion was unanimous
ly carried that the city recorder
be instructed to write such letter.
The report of the chief of police
was read and approved. During the
month of October fifty-three dodgers
had been taken in and six arrests
made.

They have fought the great fight,

anyone was aware of it the road
was improved. In road building
some definite plan must be follow
ed. Nothing of permanent char
acter can be accomplished by resort
ing to haphaZard methods. While
Mankato has more applications fos
help, this road will be given favor
able consideration. The right kind
of spirit will improve the Mankato
Good Thunder road, add SO per acre
at least, to the value of the farm
and at an expense of only SO cents
per acre. In closing Mr.. Palmer
stated that this was one of the best
good roads meetings he ever had
attended.
Remarks BY Others.
John Nyquist stated that he was
very much pleased with the meet
ing. 1t certainly was pleasure tc
him to attend such a nice gathering
which had been called in such a
short time The Eberhart boys were
the prime movers in calling the
meeting.
Editor Frank Griffin remarked
that he was not an automobile
crank nor had he ever cranked al
automobile, but he believed in good
roads and was interested in the
present movement. He wanted the
road improved from Good Thunder
to Mankato and he felt safe in max
ing the assertion that the business
men of Good Thunder would pay
half of the expense of improving
the road from the village to the
school house.
Donations Are Made.
Chairman Schlesselman then call
ed for donations and the response
was gratifying. The list of sub
scriptions from Good Thunder bust
ness men is given above. Also the
farmers who agreed to haul gravel
Several present did not care to
pledge themselves to any number
of yards, but all declared that they
would contribute their share.
Cashier Morelock stated that his
bank would respond with subscrip
ton, and the representative of the
Laird-Norton Yards said that his
people would come forward with a
subscription also.
1t is estimated that 600 or zoe
yards of gravel will be required to
improve a mile of road.
Mr.. Palmer expressed himself as
well pleased with the spirit of the
meeting. He spoke in high praise
of the liberality of the business
men of Good Thunder, saying that
he doubted if there is another town
of it's size that would contribute
more generously to the good roads
movement.
Mr.. Palmer said that the money
should not be scattered about on
several roads, but that one road at
time should be improved perma-
nently Then others should be given
attention. elf every man waits until
his road is graveled nothing will
be DONE" 1t was suggested to the
meeting that if they should not sue
coed in having the road declared a
state road, an improvement associa-
ton should be organized and the
work on the highway be done under
it's direction.
Committees Are Named.
On a motion of Frank Griffin a
committee was appointed to request
the county commissioners to de-
clare the road from Good Thunder
to the top of Strands ravine state
road. The committee includes H. A.
