GETTING BUSY.

Already our county division friends
are getting ready for active work along
the lines Of county division. A meeting
has been called at Rupert for Nov. 10Th
and the call for the meeting states that
'while the election has been carried.
there is yet Il lot OF business that must
be taken care Of. By far the greatest
fight must be made in the legislature,
and a plan Of campaign there must be
mapped ont and preparations made to
assure Success
1t will not do for the people Of this
section and others who are not in accord
with the Gooding plan to sit idly back
and say that there will he no county d.
vision. They have put formidable
have 10y their votes sanctioned and APP
proved his plan OF division. How mucl
prestige this will give him in the comins
legislature is simply matter OF spccula
ton, and not easy to determine. We pre-
dict that the senatorial fight is bound t,
have some influence on this question an,
We are almost ready to believe that some
sort OF division will be agreed upon. bu
trust that the lines may he more equi
tably drawn than those that are nov
proposed.
We cannot afford to let the matte
drop where ii il, and some concerto,
movement should at once be inauguratcc
to check any unfair advantage that tn,
divisionists obtain. We believe the non
partisan league should be reorganize,
and plan OF action mapped ont Sev
eral steps have been proposed, but moth
ing will be done ii We all sit back an,
let the other fellow do the work Lee
somebody yet busy.

there were two smashups at the auto

wrist when his car turned over.
Burman, with his new 300 horsepower

Later. after winning the first three-mile

with a smashup, but escaped unhurt.
This heat was won by Harry Kyle en

tried to take the lead from Mercedes

crashed into the Mercedes. and the Benz

AS MILITARY ADJUNCT.
France Developing Aeroplane Corps
for Use in War.

Great strides in the development as a
military adjunct Of the aeroplane have
been made by the French army, ac-
cording to a report to the War Depart
ment by Maj. Saltzman of the Signal
Corps. Through the courtesy of the
French government, Maj Saltzman was
afforded the fullest opportunity to wit
ness the operations of the army aero
plane corps in the field. and he has made
many valuable suggestions as the result
of his observations. These apply prin-
cipally to the organization and personnel
of the corps. and no attempt is made
by the officer to express any conclusion
as to the respective merits Of French
and American aeroplanes.
The report has been submitted to Adjt
Gen. Andrews, and will be considered
by the general staff in connection with
the whole subject of the development
