Weldon Cooke Fell Hundreds

EVERY BONE IS BROKEN

Special to The Daily Reeord:-
Pueblo, Sept. l6-Ayiator Weldon
Cooke was killed this morning DUR
ing an exhibit at the State Fair
grounds. He was the main feature
of the STATE Fair programme.
At the time the accident started
Cooke was several hundred feet in
the air and his machine collapsed.
He dropped with the machine the
full distance and was crushed &c
death by the engine. every bone in
his body. practically, being broken.
Thousands Witnessed the accident.
Cooke on Tuesday made his sched
uled fight from Colorado Springs 10
Pueblo but when but FIVE miles from
Pueblo was forced to alight and take
on gasoline.
Had Trouble Tuesday
He had expected to make the en-
tire distance without a stop but
throughout the journey he had great
deal of difficulty. He was some
what fearful when he went up this
morning but trusted to his usual
luck to get through in good shape.
This is the second aviator in the
past few years who has been killed
while making exhibition lights in
Colorado. Ralph Johnstone was the
first and he was killed in Denver
about four years ago while making
flight there.
Cooke came west from Sanduslzy
Ohio, his home. He made in
his lifetime several wonderful flights
and was considered one of the most
daring Of ayiators.

d. E. Gibson. who spent a couple
OF months in Vancouver, b. c.. and
along the coast in that section talks
entertainingly of that country and OF
the effect OF the war on Canada. He
says:
No longer than year ago. things
were booming in Vancouver and ev-
cry man was of the notion that moth
ing could stop il. But today. prac-
tically every one who had the money
to buy. finds himself loaded with
high priced real estate. that could
hardly be sold at any price except
in the choi.est localities.
Before war was declared the presi-
dent of the labor unions stated that
there were $4,000 unemployed in Van
couver alone
This plaec is rated at about $780,
600 inhabitants and is the highest
priced place for most of the ordinary
things one wants to buy that haze
ever been in
The recent tariff revision in tho
United States admits practically free.
most of the products and manufac-
tured articles from Canada.
Canada, as you will recall repudiat-
ed our reciprocity proposition some
thing more than year ago. and the
average duty on shipments from the
United States is rs per cent
The people either thought. or the
politicians imbued them with the idea
that it was the purpose of the United
States to annex Canada. OF course
there is not a single reader of this
paper, or any other paper in our
country who thinks we will annex
Canada.
No Liking For Americans
1t is my opinion that the Canadians
as a whole and the English even
more so. have no particular liking
for our people. IA is my further OPP
inion that ihe reople OF no other
country do. We are too progressive.
and have too much Of the worlds
money, and rs even Sir wnfrea I.au-
rier said ten yesrs ago. they think
we have too muoh cheek
At that time they were much dis.
satisfied over the settlement Of the
boundary Of ALASKA and some OF the
treaties made by England for Canada
with us. England has the treaty.
making power for Canada. and that
is the extent OF Englands control
over the oDminion without her con-
sent.
At that time. that Is, at the conclu-
sion of the treaty fixing the bounda.
ries Of ALASKA, Canada tried hard to
get an abrogation or a modification
OF the treaty making power OF Eng
land but IT still stands. and guess
will continue to stand.
This war of course. is stirring Can
ada as nothing else ever has done
but the full significance of the bur
den that viii finally be imposed they
seem to be not conscious Of 1t had
practically no army at the beginning
of the war. and the coast line is al
most boundless. No war ships ex-
cept one small cruiser, the Rainbow
and that was obsolete. Vancouver

been as helpless as a child II a

Today. II looks as IL England and her

of war should favor Germany. then
what would become OF Canada, would
be most serious thing for that
country. and possibly for the United
