Speaker Rides in an Automobile Now

UyHEN he was elected speaker Of the
w house OF representatives Champ
Clark refused to accept an automobile
to be paid for by the government.
Such q provision was made by con-
gress during the term OF Speaker Can
non, and that gentleman used his gov
eminent automobile to his hearts con-
tent. He became 30 enamored Of the
Joy OF automobiling that at the end OF
his term he purchased one OF his own
and puts 1t to good use.
While Champ Clark does not own
an automobile or allow the govern
ment to furnish him one, he enjoys
riding. and. strange to say, he enjoys
riding with his predecessor, Joseph
q. Cannon.
Speaker Clark is seen very often rid
Ing about the streets and avenues OF
Washington in Mr.. Cannon's machine.
The speaker and the ex-speaker are
real good friends.

the last French military maneuvers.
The new machines will be ordered in
lots of 20. so and even 100. They will
be OF different types and will be sup
piled by all the leading French con-
structors.
The day has passed when the aero
plane is a mere experiment for mill
tary purposes. Only few days ago
an Italian army officer, operating an
aeroplane in Tripoh. dropped bombs
among the Turks and Arabs and was
in return wounded by a rifle bullet
He was using a monoplane and had
one passenger with him. The most
notable feature OF the incident was
the fact that he was enabled to con-
tinue operation of the machine after
he had been wounded. His passenger
assisted him and the monoplane was
brought back to safety to the Italian
camp. Not only were projectiles
dropped among the enemy. but the
aviator and his companion made
sketches OF the military works over
which they passed.

w ASHINGTON.-T legislature OF
w Virginia is now considering the
propriety OF enRcting a law which will
do away with ascent admission fee
charged at the gate to Mount Vernon.
the home OF Washington. Earnest pro-
tests have been made by many citi-
zens OF the state against the charging
of any fee for admission to the
grounds. on tho theory that the public
generally. without restraint, ought TO
be free to enter the grounds and In
spect the many interesting things
that are to be found there. Tho legis-
lature OF Virginia originally incor-
porated the ladies' society which owns
the Mt Vernon estate, and has made
it what It is today. and OF course an
amendment OF that act, cutting out
the admission fee. may be made when
ever the legislature in its wisdom sees
At. Two years ago, when the legis-
lature was In session, a similar move
ment was put under way. but there
was not legislation. This time the eff
fort has been renewed with Increased
enthusiasm. and the no-fee bill is now
before the house committee on laws.

u. S. Soon to Have Big Army Air Fleet

WITHIN two years the United States
w army will probably possess 40
Aeroplanes. At present 1t only has
seven machines. a number so insignifi-
cant as to make comparison with
some OF the powers of Europe almost
impossible. In the development of the
so-called fourth army" OF the military
service, this country is far behind
France and Germany, notwithstanding
the fact that the first men to make
practicable the fight OF heavier-than-
air machines were Americans. Even
Italy can show greater advancement
than this country, although this is due
to the fact that she has on her hands
q war which gave her an opportunity
to demonstrate the usefulness of the
hying-machine in actual service. The
only thing approaching that oppOrtu-
nifty in this country was offered during
the period when We massed troops on
the Mexican border.

May Do Away With Fee at Mt. Vernon

which has been giving hearings 10
men and women representing both
sides.
The whole country is interested 10
this proposed change of the articles
OF incorporation of the ladies' Mt. Yer
non society. for in every state there is
8 chapter of the society, and each OF
these chapters has had charge OF the
work OF restoring one OF the rooms OF
the old mansion. or one of the out.
buildings, or some particular feature
OF the grounds. The purpose OF the
society has been to restore the build
ings and grounds to the condition
they were in the time when Washing
ton was alive. This work has been
carried forward pretty we'll to COM
pletion. In the mansion there is now
almost 80 per cent. OF the original
furniture. for instance, while the out
buildings are all to be found there.
The people who want the admission
fee abolished say the ladies' society
has been making too much money.
that 1t is a close corporation, taking
money from the public and expending
il without let or hindrance, and pre-
sumably piling up a considerable sur
plus In cash. The ladies' society
doesn't plead guilty to these charges
1t says the fees are only sufficient to
maintain the estate properly. that
there are no large SURPRISES, and that
the society has not at any time made
1t policy to earn profits from the
patriotic impulses OF American citi-
Zens.

During the quarterly session of
the board of county commission
ers which closed last week, that
body designated county roads
Nos. l and 2, the former to start
at the Deuel. county line and run
north through this city to the
Roberts county line, and the
other to start at the Minnesota
state line, run through Alban
township to this city and thence
west through Twin Brooks vii
lage and Mazeppa and Farming
ton townships to the Day county
line. Under new law passed
by the 1910 legislature the com
missioners were given this power
and also have the authority to
make appropriations for work on
county roads, but no such appro-
priations were made by the com
missioners of this county, the
work being left in the hands of
the communities through which
they pass to be done in the usual
way. The resolution passed by
the commissioners in locating
and naming these roads appears
in the official proceedings of that
body, which are published in
this issue. Every reader is ad-
vised to read this resolution.

Harvest Carnival
For Milbank
The Commercial Club Decide on Hay.
ing a Three Days Celebration.


The Commercial Club at it's
regular meeting decided on
having a Harvest Carnival, to be
held in this city some time the
latter part Of September.
The Club is aiming to give this
community the best attractions
that money can buy. Among
the attractions that are under
consideration is a Curtis Aero
plane which the committee hopes
to secure. This will be the
one attraction that every one has
read about, but few have seen,
and all will want to see. Other
sports will be base ball games be-
tween very fast teams, also street
sports of all kinds, band concerts
etc.
No pains or money will be
spared to make this Carnival the
best ever seen in this part of the
state. Let every Milbank citi-
zen help in boosting for Mil.
