Roosevelt to South Americans.

Mr. Roosevelt in a letter expressing re-
greet al his inability to participate in the
Marylald campaign in the interests OIL
the progressive party. mentions his APP
preaching visit To South America, ana
speaks of Brazil. the Argentine Repub-
lie and Chile as three great democracles
with an assured future of immense ma
terial growth before them. lie tAen
says that he has been asked to speak
there because they feel that i can pre-
sent the genuine creed of progressiVism,
the creed in accordance with which all
democracies must be managed if they are
TO be successful
Is Mr. Roosevelt to tell the people of
those countries that government IN this
country has broken down: that the two
old parties which have alternated i'll con-
troll for hall a century-now one and now
the other in olfice-are alike corrupt to-
day. ami under Influences prejudiclal to
the general welfare" Ii so, what will be
the effect of his visit on our southern
friends?
We have been a little boastful with
them about our prosperity and stability.
We have claimed discovery of many prln-
ciples of popular government, and that
We were giving them shining and sue
cessful application. Watch u.s. we
have as much as said to the Central and
South Americans And do as we do.
Copy us and you'll wear diamonds.
But here is a man who SAYS at home,
and may in effect say on this visit, that
we have erred and strayed from the right
way like lost sheep; that we have fol-
lowed too much the devices and desires
of our perverted hearts and that the
trusts and the interests now master us.
And, coming from such source. will
not the assertions have their influence on
the South Americans? MIR. Roosevelt is
the most widely known of the North
Americans He served in our highest Of
flee for nearly eight years, and has other
wise achieved distinction which has car
ried his name and fame all over the
world So that his words will challenge
attention.
In substance, Mr.. Roosevelts message
will be this: THE hope of my country
is in the progressivism l represent, The
party have failed. Another attempt to
dislodge and scatter them will be made,
and If that fails, the United States will
be no longer worth copying. 1t will con-
tinue in the hands Of the unworthy, and
by them be wrecked"
Startling talk by former President Of
the United States? Yes; to foreigners
But here at home we are all familiar
with il, and it raises no goosefiesh.

The Winston Plan.
Milwaukee Free Press.


The Carolinas seem to be yying with
each other in the promotion of civic and
municipal efficiency. Hardly has Sum
ter, s. c.. ceased to occupy newspaper
space as the first city to adopt the city
manager plan, when Winston, N. c.,
bids for the limelight with it's training
school for citizenship. The board of trade
of this city Of less than 1900 inhabitants
is responsible for this educational inno-
vation It's first move was to secure the
introduction in the senior year of the
high school of a course in government
and economies under the direction Of the
secretary of the board of trade. This
course is designed with especial refer
ence to the industrial, commercial, agri-
cultural and financial interests of the
United States. But the board did not
stop with this purely theoretical study.
It supplied the means for practical verifi-
cation-and that is its most unique serv-
ice. This is a juvenile branch of the
board of trade whose members have all
the privileges Of the regular body except
voting. They are permitted to take part
i'm debate and are even assigned commit
tee work.

The Possibility of Atlantic Flight.

Aviator Garros, who flew across the
Mediterranean the other day in eight
hours, says II is physically possible to
travel by airplane from England to North
America, by way OF Iceland, somewhat

comments on the remarkable flight to
Tunis. But Garros qualities this state

come for such a venture Later. he init
mates. 1t may be possible to try il with
good chance of success. He proposes a
series Of three flights. to Iceland and
thence 10 Newfoundland and from there
10 the mainland. each flight being a little
longer ;han his own trans Mediterranean
passage. The best chance of success
would be with d light, swift monoplane.
and not hydro -aeroplane.
\ question arises in this connection
whether il is not possible to devise a
duplex engine arrangement for long and

the solution of the problem OF long over

The Fisherman at Home.

Dear father took fishing trip.
He has rheumatic pains
And various symptoms Of the grip.
He never once complains.
For life at present seems to hold
All joy that he could wish.
He doesn't mind a little cold.
He nearly caught fish.
He tells about il while we stand
And stare with wondering eyes.
1t nearly chewed off fathers hand,
So fearful was it's size.
1t winked at him and tried to sing
And waved a fin in play.
1t did a hornpipe and a fling
And then it swan away.
In museums ! have stood around
And viewed the monsters Ger
Which in the ages past were found
Disporting near the shore.
These curious creatures are for me
With scant Importance fraught:
But oh, the fish / long to see
That father nearly caught.

Primary in Air Flight.
he New York Evening Post

From the New York Evening Post.
The trans-Mediterranean flight of Ro-
land Garros comes sufficiently close after
the remarkable performance of Brinde-
jonc de Molineauxs flight from Paris to
st. Petersburg and back. to emphasize
the unimpaired primacy of the French
IN the field of aeroplane development. We
are accustomed to think of the French
as pioneers; for them to sow the idea
which more stolid nations are at liberty
to develop. But possibly because the
business of the aviator Is so laden with
something of an experiment, the French
have remained faithful to the great
tradition of Farman and Bleriot. An
other factor is the patriotic motive
Upon the aeroplane. France mas pinned
her hopes Of the mastery Of the air,
even as the Germans have made the
dirigible their own.
