The progress of civilization has
been rapid in the past few years, and
necessity, the mother Of invention,
has found In Daniel Edward Riley. a
man whose ingenuity will place hin
among the foremost inventors Of the
present century.
Possessed with inventive power and
a knowledge of mechanics, Mr.. Riley
after spending some time In the
Alaskan territory, has conceived
vehicle of transportation known as the
aero-sleigh a mechanical contrivance
to carry passengers and freight over
the snow and ice at the rate OF 30
miles per hour--a wonderful gain
over the Anticipated method of dog
sleds, whose best time seldoms aver
ages IS miles per day.
Sole Patent in United States.
While the aero-sleigh is entirely
new to the United States, 1t has been
IN actual use in France, Germany and
Russia for the past three years, and
In certain parts Of these countries
they are used as a regular mode Of
Transportation. Mr.. Riley holds the
only patent issued In the United
states for aero-sleighs and the Aero
Sleigh Transportation company has
been incorporated under the laws OF
the state OF Washington with a cap
itaIizaton of 100000 for the purpose
OF manufacturing aero-sleighs and
with the object Of securing Alaskan
mail contracts.
Suited to Alaska Service.
The United States government Is
spending approximately quarter OF
transportation of government mail in
Alaska for dog sled transportation.
One aero sleigh will do the work Of
seven dog teams and sleds, each team
being equipped with IL dogs. and 1t
will carry twice the amount Of weight
and do the work in less than half the
time and at less than one-half the
cost These features alone will tend
TO make 1t necessity wherever mod
ern methods are required and big

The salient features of the aero
plane. automobile and sleigh have
been combined to produce the aero

that large quantities Of coppcr-bearing

Butte Is wrong. But little copper
bearing metal was found until the
depth of 500 feet had been reached and
so the mine waters in those days car
