Democracy Is Growing.
The American democracy year by year
has been coming more and more into its
own into a direct and more embracing
control over the affairs OF the govern

HOW TO HANDLE A BABY"
New Course May he Added to Scv
York Police school.

New York. April How to Handle a
Baby may have to be added to the cur
riculum of New York's police school
The need for such a course was demon
strated recently by an officer belonging
to one of the uptown police stations. II
SO happened that this officer is a bachelor
and consequently nows nothing about
babies so when a citizen accosted him
IN the street and told him that there was
an unclaimed baby lying In the hallway
OF an apartment house the officer went to
the rescue.
The officer decided to take care of the
infant Gt was a boy), and started for the
station house. When he deposited his
burden on the desk, the lieutenant, who

gave the oficer a severe lecture. II
seems that the officer had carried the
urchin upside down and nearly ruined II.
Fortunately the lieutenant knew how to
resuscitate the little one and inside OF
ten minutes he was the pet Of the police
station. A jury OF policemen. plain
clothesmen and detectives estimated that
the baby was three months old.

When Electricity Will Be as Cheap

A.-The nearest approach TO

ity is the act of allowing irrigat-
ing streams from high mountains
to turn turbine generators over

plants along down the sides of
the mountains, and then, after
securing all mechanical work of
gravitauon, secure growing work
in the growth of food plants. This
IS the height at present of human
skill in the work of tapping ma
ture."
Windmius turning armatures is
another way of tapping, And the
capture of water IN tides, using
the force of outflow, is still an
other. We still have the dyna-
mos with us; We must turn arma-
lures with their polar fields of

We must use running water or

mirrors directly from the noon-

What's the Matter With Aviation?

L HAVE just been reading an in
terview in a Partisan maya
zine with Santos Dumont on
the latest phases of aerial navi-
CATION. History sprouts and
pushes so fast nowadays in the
field where he earned renown that
some who once hailed him as
the first of bird men" may now
have almost forgotten his name.
remember Santos Dumont
when he first came TO New York
haloed with the glory of his
earliest aerial exploits. in
terviewed him for The New York
American. 1t was away back
well, back in the nineteenth CEN
fury. (For some of us who have
been long associated with New
York Journalism it seems strange
that the nineteenth century

/ found him in his room near
the top of one of our then already
skyscraping hotels, an aerie
which he assured me he had
purposely chosen because ii gave
him a sense of being up in bal
loon In receiving me, he led me
instantly to a window and swept
his hand admiringly, superbly
over the bird's-eye view of lower
Central Park, which lay spread
beneath our eyes.
1t was a gesture that opened
his soul, and Immediately, with
out waiting for questions, he eX-
planned like a panorama all the
story of his achievements, hopes
and expectations.
| have never met a man who so
thoroughly looked what he was
as did Santos Dumont He had
the swift, tripping step of spi-
der What you saw was a big
head. a little body, and legs so
slender that they seemed long.
The whole figure, apparently not
more than five feet tall, appeared
to be strung on wires, but every
wire was under control. and they
all yihrated in unison 2t the sig.
nal of the commanding brain.
At that time Santos Dumont
was kind of scientific John the
Baptist He announced the com
ing of greater things than he was
able To perform himself He was

the Wrights had done He pro-
duced his "Demoiselle, type of
monoplane which has done good
work in the hands of Garros,
Morane, Saulnier and other pi-
lots of the atmosphere, but since
1910 he had made no important
changes in his machine. He con-
tents himself now with regard
ing critically what others are
doing.

gestion to constructors" ne says.
Il would say that in my opinion
they are wrong in eXaggerating
the power of their machines.
They complain that aviation does
not develop among civilians, but
it is because they are making it
too expensive. From motors of
80 horsepower they have passed
to those of 20, 80. 100, 100 and
even 200 horsepower
Machines that cost from Sc, 900
to $4,000 are too expensive. not
only at their first price. but es-
pecially In the cost of operation.
They are inebriates in their con-
sumption of oil. The merest lit
tie turn out with them is prodi-
gality. The cost per mile of fight
with these puissant motors be-
comes recklessly extravagant

must be powerful enough to go
out in all kinds of weather. but |
think ii is grave error to seek
to force such machines upon the
market for private, civilian own
ers. The needs of sport should
especially he consulted. The
sportsman. the tourist, and even
the man who would use the aero
plane for commercial purposes,
can wait for proper weather. He
doesn't call for a machine which
can battle with all the obstacles
of the atmosphere.
"A private aeroplane should be
like a yacht-made and calcu-
lated for use in decent weather
and not in tempests. So the con-
structors should turn their aiten-
ton to the production of the
aeroplane of sport of simple pleas

ED. HOOD ANNOUNCES
TODAY FOD SHERIFF

We publish today the formal an
nouncement of Ed. Hood as a candi-
date for sheriff and collector of Ne
vada County, subject to the action of
the Democratic party.
We again wish to impress upon the
voters the highly Importance of use
ing care and judicious caution in Sc
lecting our county officials. The office
of sheriff and collector is no less i'm
portant than any other in the power
OF the people to bestow. There are
many requirements in this place that
takes man who will lay aside his
personal feelings, his personal inter-
ests and make great sacrifices to
faithfully and conscientiously dis
charge them. AS collector this posi-
ton places in the hands of the holder,
all the money that is paid into the
county. He is required to promote
peace and afford protection to the en-
tire citizenship of Nevada County.
In announcing Mr.. Hood for this
important position we ask you to re-
view his past record as a peace officer.
He served you faithfully for number
of years. There is not a voter in
Nevada county who ever had cause
to complain of him as an officer or a
citizen.
Mr.. Hood has always been one of
the county's most loyal democrats and
when you go to the polls to cast your
vote in the March primaries we ask
you to give him your earnest, careful
and conscientious consideration.
