The city's commercial advantages, were
they developed, can hardly be imagined, for
It's many railroads and close proximity to
the Mississippi not only affords easy ship
ping outlet to the whole commercial world
but It also offers wonderful opportunities
for all kinds Of manufacturing enterprises
dependent upon unlimited power, water
and railroad facilities. Strange as It may
seem, however, these many opportunities
are undeveloped and the giant hand Of In
dustry is paralyzed at this particular spot
by disease that can only be diagnosed
by those who stop to think and inquire.
A Tomb Tells the Story
Being the oldest city In the state, Du.
buque marks the spot where the frst white
man set permanent foot on that part OF
Spanish territory now embraced In the
state Of Iowa, and through her gates ever
since have poured hosts Of pioneers who
left their fortunes on the other side Of the

elected ever since for Il has been recog-
nized as folly to trust real and loyal Ro-
manist because Of the attitude of his
church, his pope, his priests and his own
church schools.
But now, by the election Of Cronan, 1t Is
declared the church will "come into Its
own" by getting a division of the public
school money. A clever little plot has
leaked out through the over-enthusiasm OF
good Catholic it Is said, looking to the
next school board election. With Cronan
and the Irish Catholic ticket elected the
election machinery will be more completely
in the hands Of the religious-politician
than 1t Is now.
It is believed by the church element In
politics that It will therefore be easy to
persuade the people to elect solid Cath
olic school board. The rest will be easier
still.
According to those who learned Of this
conspiracy, certain Roman Catholic socie-
ties have been discussing the plan and
getting II In shape for some time.

Army Aviation Service.

Significant, In view of the popular
conception of flying as extreme dare

States army aviation service from
January to December 20, 1915. Dur
ing that period 1857 flights were
made by military pilots. In all 1851
hours were speAt In the air, which
means that more than nine hours each
day of the year some soldier-airman
was aloft. The distance Travelled
amounted tel approximately -25L7J5
miles. or slightly more than. 10 times
the circumferences of the earth. There
was no fatality. Evidently these fig.
.ures cannot be fairly compared with
current railroad and motor-car statis-
tics. Contrasts are not needed. how
ever, to accent their import Sane fly
ing is not yet accident-proof, and pos
sibly never win be, but neither is 1t
extremely foolhardy. - Popular Me-
