thinks that anyone who can appreciate
1t must be untrue to the cause of pro-

ten times as much and as strong arpu-
ments In favor Of protection generally,
as well as IN favor of protection for our
local industries OF lead, zinc, wool and
sugar, as the Smoot organ has presented.
In fact, the Smoot organ has given no
indication that it understands the doc.

IN detail.

AS TO TRAINED CRITICISM

We note that there Is q renewal In
the Eastern press of the discussion On
criticism 1t is to be noted, however
that the criticised never make any oh.
lection to criticism that is favorable
1t is only criticism that is unfavorable
that is objected to or resented. 1t ia
only when the criticised feel the sting
that they quote Byron's couplet:
4 man mus. SorTe his time to ev.ry tad.
Save eersure-eritics all arc ready made
Byron, however, would have made no
objection to the "Scotch Reviewers
il those reviewers had treated his verse
kindly. In that case he would have
considered their competence beyond
question. AS matter Of fact, their
competence was beyond question. for
Blackwood's Magazine, in which the
criticisms appeared that Byron objected
to, has always been a magazine of the
very highest possible critical ability.
Tho great public is always the final
and supreme resort in all forms of criti-
ciom. 1t is the public that is appealed
to on all matters where criticism is ap.
piled. But 1t is impossible to apply the
Byronic sneer to the general public;
and although every one recognizes that
this general public Is the ultimate arbi-
tor. there nre always the injured who
fall back upon Byron and assume to Oe
in his class for the purpose, at least, of
resenting criticism.
1t is quite true that criticism ought
to be fair, ought to be intelligent, ought
TO be from those who know the rules OF
construction. or preparation of whatever

GREAT AVIATION FLIGHTS.

Aviation, in spite of the number Of
with leaps and bounds. The announce
ment this morning that q Cuban has
won a prize offer of long standing,
taking ten thousand dollars for his
prize, for flight from Cuba to Key
West. is a distinct evidence of this
progress.
There have been brief references to
some fcats in aviation that show mag
uificent advances in this science.
Flights of n thousand miles are re.
ported with almost incredible swift
ness. And in spite of all efforts to
legislate against the free and unre-
stricted navigation of the air, the air
men wend their way triumphant with
out regard TO national boundaries and
unhindered by any legislation, order,
or restriction. military or civil.
The most recent exemplification OF
the impossibility of controlling air
flights from the earth is in the flight
Of Marcel G. Brindeione des Mouli-
nails. His recent most marvellous flight
was from Bremen to London. In max
ing II he maintained great height and
attained exceptional speed in a por-
tion of his flight. He was nearly a
mile up in the air when he crossed
the English Channel, and he crossed it
in twenty minutes From Dover TO
London and over that great city he
maintained an average height of 5000
feet. and in returning he maintained q
height beyond all possibility of inter
ference, for the chances OF hitting an
aircraft OF any kind (the Freuchman
used monoplane) at height Of
mile and when the plane is going at
Tremendous speed would appear TO be
negligible. The airmen could success
fully defy all efforts to reach their
ing from the earth; for monoplane
or biplane at the height Of a mile is
a very small mark, and when going at
speed its position at any given mo-
ment could not be gussed by the gun
ner, for the gunner would neither
know the height Of the monoplane with
sufficient accuracy to gauge whore ne
should shoot to catch it in its flight,
nor could the gunner be sure that the
flight would be in a straight line,
since under bombardment the mono
plane could be made to deviate and
zlgzag moro or less so as absolutely to
destroy any accuracy Of aim on the
part Of the gunner,
It is therefore practically established
that so far as any present known
means are concerned, of reaching an
aeroplane high in the air and going at
swift speed, the plane is immune from
all attack. Tt will be vain to legislate
either forbidding the crossing Of ma
tional boundary by an aeroplane under
conditions such as the Frenchman es-
tablished, or to regulate the flight in
any way, And so up to date the aero
plane has the field all to itself, abso-
utely battling all attempts at inter
ference either by legal regulation or
oy the attack OF an enemy.

on old orders, but new business has
fallen off; yet this recession is remark.

spired by pending tariff changes.
Conservatism is noted as to future
trade, though In some places wholesale
trade is better than expected. On the
whole, the country is keeping up its

Of the drastic cuts proposed by the new

The Boston wool market reports a

markets are anxious about the Chinese
loan of $125, 100000, without seeing any
good way to provide the money The
effort will be to get China to take as
much silver as possible, but China is
already overstocked with silver, and
would be inclined to refuge silver if it
were allowed the option of refusing.
