daily air maneuvers was Lieut.. T. D.

Derby, nine miles; Derby and Long Hill
Station. eight miles; and Long Hill
Station and Stratford, seven miles.
The machine was equipped with re-
volving map of the section. and the
operator was instructed to mark upon

troops observable.
Milling remained aloft forty-three
minutes, reporting nedVy mist, anu
had only moderate success in plotting
the commands. On a trip later he was
aloft ffty-seven minutes, and made a
complete map of the encampments
Milling obtained an altitude of $500 feet
on the hrst flight and 200 on the sec
ond. This problem was also given to
Private Beckwith HaVens, the pro-
fessional Curtiss aviator. Havens re-
mained aloft twenty-three minutes at

Major Reber and Capt. r. 3. Hennes-
sew regard the feats as conclusive proof
of the vital Importance of the aeroplane

tact that troops within the triangle

Having been petitioned by a number
of prominent and representative citi-
zens Of Salem to become q candidate
for mayor l have with some reluct-
ance decided to allow my name to be
presented as q candidate for such po-
sition at the forthcoming primaries.

such a step until l was assured by the
number Of signers to the petition that
there was a genuine demand for me
to make the race. While feel that at
the present time / can hardly afford
the sacrifice Of my time and energies
which will be necessary should l be
elected to this office, yet l have a.
ways held that no citizen should re-
fuse such sacrifice if he feels he is
called upon by his fellow citizens TO
assume it. 1t is public duty and the
office is public trust. Could l have
consulted my own inclinations alone

some time. l have always felt that
any man who has given the best part
Of his life to the successful pursuit of
his own business, owes few years to
the public which has prospered him
and made his success possible. l am
ready to do my part If the people de-
sire and as to the time when l shall
do this, defer to the judgment Of my
friends. In pursuance of this idea
alone ard with nc thought of personal
advantage l enter the lists and with
perfect confidence in the judgment OF
the people leave the matter in the

W. c. HAWLEY,

Republican Direct Primary Nominee
for Congress, has received the COM
mendation Of President Taft and
Roosevelt and of the people Of Ore
gon generally for his support of pro.
gressive legislation. Mr.. Hawley is
a native born Oregon, and is familiar
with the affairs of Oregon, and will
continue to serve the best interests OF
her people.
The Eugene Guard has the follow
ing relative to Mr.. Hawley:
1t is but simple justice to a hard
working, sincere man to say that Con-
gressman Hawley possesses those
qualifications for the office he holds.
There are many smoother politicians
on duty at the national capital, many
more brilliant orators, but probably
no member who is really trying hard
er to serve his constituents in a ma
terial way, More than this, Mr.. Haw-
ley is plain forceful speaker, with
ample ability to express himself in
public, voicing the wishes Of the peo-
pie he represents.

BUSINESS MAN OF SCIO
ENDORSES 1T STRONGLY

In the early part of September, 1908,
the writer received a pamphlet pub
lished at Eugene, entitled "The Lane
County Plan," which explained the
county high school tuition law adopt
cd by that county two years previous
The result in Lane county had proved
so flattering that we Immediately set
about to see what could be done to
establish a like plan for Linn county
Petitions were at once circulated, and
the question was submitted to the le-
gal voters of this county in the fall
election Of 1908, resulting in its adop-
ticn by small majority of GA votes
Since that time the high school deyel-
opment in this county has been so rap
i'd as to surprise the most optimistic
among us. Albany alone has more
high school pupils this year than were
enrolled in the entire county in 1908.
Our little town Of Scio was struggling
with two-year high school when the
new law went into effect. We now
maintain full four year high school,
employing two high school teachers
aggregating salary of $1S2.50 per
month, and this with less burden on
our district than when under the old
law we employed one high school
teacher at $75 per month. Other small
high schools of the county have had a
like experience There is no question
but that the law Is success, The
trouble is, getting a sufficient number
to understand 1t. Ignorance as to its
intent and purpose is the only thing
that can defeat 1t. The writer is sure
that our success in Linn county was
due entirely to lively campaign Of
education, II the question were again
submitted to the people Of this coun-
ty instead Of carrying by a mere hand
full Of votes, as was the case four years
ago, 1t would be adopted almost unan-
imously. Yours very truly.

ey into Oregon. The Fir road brings
this rich area in close touch with Sa-
lem, and makes 1t the natural trad
ing point.
Nor is this all Of the optimistic out
look Another road has been sur
veyed, and will undoubtedly be built
next year; in fact work on It is liable
to commence at any time. Tha is the
road to Stayton. It was intended to
commence work on this road a month
ago, but 1t was held up by some mis-
understanding between Mr.. Mounce,
its promoter, and the citizens of that
city This road will begin work soon
and, while 1t may not pass directly
through Stayton, It is to penetrate
that rich section, bringing It in close
touch with Salem.
A moments glance at the above ar
ray of railroad facts justifies the
greatest optimism as to Salem's fu-
ture as railroad center, for, with
the present roads, there are six lead
ing out Of Salem. The Stayton road
will be the seventh, and it seems to
be certainty 1t will also bring q
great timber belt and rich agricultur-
al section, that Of the santiam, in
close relationship with Salem the
coming railroad center Of Western
Oregon.
