LITTLE Rock, Nov, 10Th, ~.
One of the greatest and most direct
effects of the Democratic landslide in

ton of the Cleveland interegnums.
the Republicans have had control OF
all federal Offices in the state since
the war, and now the Democrats are
coming into their own. And there
will be no lack otaspirants, They
had already begun circulating petit
tions when the returns from Acush-
net were announced at O'Clock the
day of the election. And now they
are everywhere getting busy:

II Lincoln Beachey, the prince Of
aerial nayigatots made friends Of the
thousands who witnessed his beautl-

plano at the Driving park. Wednes-
dag afternoon. and he certainly did
that Friendship was firmly ccmented
by his subsequent performance.
Thursday. for he not only went
orators of heavier -than-air machines.
but he executed the maneuvers to the
queens taste and was unstinting in
his demonstrations of flying more
liberal exhibition and certainly a bet
ter one, could hardly be asked for.
He flew as no aviator in Maine has
ever flown before, It might be said
that he outdid the birds i'm their own
element. for surely no bird ever flew
as high as he did. Thursday after
noon. or at least so far as mortal eve
has seen.
Because of the threatening weather
the audience which greeted him.
Thursday afternoon. was not as large
as that of the preceding day, but it
was just as enthusiastic. and the APP.
plause which was accorded him was
generous In the superlative degree.
Every body was pleased. and as Mr..
Beachey landed at the conclusion of
each of the two fights of the after
noon they lost no time in voicing their
approval in a mighty shout that made
he welkin ring.
After Altitude Record.
Mr.. Beaehey's~ program for the af-
terppon, while of course similar To
that of "Wednesday. differed some
what. inasmuch as the first fight was
more of an altitude nature. and made
with a view of going after the record.
Starting at 2.26, the biplane sped down
the field. and when near the lower
end. mounted into the air. After cir
cling the park twice Mr. Beachey
headed the biplane down for one of
his sensational dips, and then rising
again. sped away for flight over
the Insane Hospital buildings. on the
grounds about which a large number
of people We're assembled to view his

From there his course lay to the

slowly turned and swept back over

was very high in the air and mount
ing higher all the time. so that by
| the time he reached the Chelsea hills
the biplane looked TO be but a speeS
in the sky. At this time he was al
most twice as high in the air as tht
! highest point reached at any tins

when one allowed their gaze to leav,
the biplane' for a moment it was diff
fcult to pick it up again, so small
was the object in the sky.
Still climbing higher, Mr.. Beache'
headed the machine north once more
and when about over the Insane hos
pital buildings he passed into tn
clouds. and was for about two min
tltes lost to sight in the yapor. Com
ing into View, again, he headed one
more for the park, and coming dow
in a series of circles, stopped tn
machine almost on the spot frol
which he started. landing at 2.54.
The highest altitude reached durin
the fight was estimated by Beache
as 10000 feet, while that of Wednes
