A Flying Train

ner for commercial uses should not
be pulled through the air at a rate Of
at least 300 miles an hour.
The model in operation in the in
Ventor's room is one of q, mail or
parcels car and not for passengers.
He has constructed a passenger car
which is raised from the track in the
same manner as the one already de-
scribed, but in actual use he claims
that the propelling or pulling force
will be furnished by means of A pro-
peller and a motor, as in the case OF
an aeroplane.
The new system is stated to be sim
pie in construction and practically in
Gestructible, and the maintenance
costs would be very small as the cars
are without engines, wheels, bearings,
gearings, armatures. or commutators.
and require no oiling and little repair
or adjustment. The distance to be
covered would not affect the running.
Each car for the mail service can be
constructed to hold fifty to 100 pounds
of mail, and would resemble double
pointed projectile.
A train can be started, checked. or
stopped by opening or closing the
electric circuits. 1t is claimed that
cars can be started every half min
ute without chance of collision, the
location of each train being always
shown by an electrical indicator that
is constantly before the dispatcher at
either end of the line. The power
currents can be cut of instantaneous
ly and the traffic on the whole length
of the line brought to a standstill.
Moreover, trains can be automatical-
| ly sidtracked and stopped at any
station.
Engineers who have seen the rail-
way in model form declare it is an
amazing achievement, but they nat
urally speak with reserve as to it's
practical value, inasmuch as what
may prove successful in model is
often less successful on large scale

SOCIALISTS ALL NOW
 SLAMMING EACH OTHER
The Alaska Reds and Their Sheets
 Fighting Over Filthy Lucre

One would think to hear socialists talk that the last thing that bothers them is money but right today in Alaska they are having a lovely scrap. Some Header" named Gonna in Fair banks attacks another "leader" named Mrs. Morrow Lewis and he is backed up by "great socialist organ" in Ju- neau, and all the way through there is nothing but inSinuations and ac- cusations about money matters. Mrs. Lewis is charged with paying the election expenses of Brooks, the can didate, and she is also accused of be- ing a failure as an organizer, as being a wire puller and various other things.
 There are three or four such sheets published now in the territory. One is in Nome, one at Fairbanks, one at Juneau and one at Valdez. They are all on a par with each other and with the doctrines they profess and it speaks very badly for the people who support them, it may be said by the way, but the fact now brought to light by their columns is about the strongest proof possible that the "socialistic" doctrines of those poor, weak-minded individuals are looking more ridiculous than ever.

 QUESTION OF GATEWAY

Some time ago the Gateway asked for information in it's columns as to the reason why no mention was made of the reasons why the name of Burns or Grigsby was not mentioned n connection with the democratic convention that nominated Bunnell and the Juneau Empire in a recent jssue edit9rially answers.
