FLY FROM EUROPE
 TO U, s, IN A DAY

An airpIane with speed of from POO 70 300 miles an hour, which will bring America within short days journey of Europe, is the prospect held out by .he invention of a French engineer, Auguste Rateau, according to the Matin. The invention was one of the surprises in store Ifor the Germans. If was about to be revealed when the fighting eeaseas
 At present, without the invention, the higher an airplane mounts the less power does its engine develop, on ac- count of the thinner air. The loss at
 5000 feet, for istanee, is 50 per cent.
 Nj. Rateau's device the paper says, s very simple. It consists of an arran- cement by which the exhaust from the enginetf~orks small turbine, which congresses the air drawn into the en- zine to normal pressure, so that the engine develops full power, no matter what the altitude. As the resistance of th air decreases enormously at high altitude, the mstin adds, it fol- lows . the higher machine fitted with tfi- new device mounts the greater .dl be it's speed. This fact, 1t is de- cIared, was demonstrated by the fam ous German longranse gun.
 It has been found that heavy day bombing machine whose speed at IS, 900 feet ordinarily did not exceed 30 miles an hour, but made 140 miles an hour when fitted with m. Rateau's invention.

GOVERNOR RIGGS DELIVERS AN INTER LISTING
 ADDRESS TO THELEGISLATURE

At the opening of the territorial leg stature this month at Juneau, Gov arnor Riggs delivered most interest na report on the territory which con .ained much valuable information re- ~srding future plans for the territory, md suggestions pointing to further de seiopment.
 Excerpts from the report follow. Regarding Aiaska's patriotic record the Governor says, "ln the establish nent in this peace, Alaska stands well put from the states and territories as being the leader in patriotic endeavor. We have furnished 12 per cent of our rooulation to the army and navy"
 In speaking of the infulenza epidem- ic and it's ravages among the people and natives of the territory. the Gov ernor recommends that if territorial finances allow, an office of commis- sioner cf health be established to be filled preferably by an officer of the U. S. Public Health Service.
 Under the head of Ignorance re- 7arding the Territory" Governor Riggs asserts that Eve can never 1o5e to receive just recognition of the
 otentiaI greatness of Alaska or to have constructive measures enacted until the gentlemen of Congress have been enducated by direct observation of our resources and our people" To remedy this, the Governor suggests hat Alaska follow the example of our sister territory, Hawaii, which has set aside territorial fund to be used to cover the travelling expenses and en- tertainment of visiting delegations of congressman and their families with 'he result that keen and beneficial interest has been aroused in Hawaii's welfare.

He also suggests that an Alaska n1u- scum be estabiihed at the capital for articles of industrial and hiStoric h. terest which are fast passing into the hands of museums in the statss and foreign lands"
 A bureau of mines, employing < capable mining engineer who shall make free examination and report on mines and mining prospects, is sug- qested as means of establishing nermanent industry.
 Regarding the mooted questeion Of "roads' the Governor says the "pres- ent law is unwieldy" and advocates the ''oreater centralization of power in the hands of the territorial Board of Road Commissioners. He also sug- aests the abo'ishment of divisional road commissioners after they have served the terms for which they were elected, reasoning that Ian elected road commissioner is not always qual- flied in road construction. ne su9' aests an amendment to the present law and the advisabiIity of imposing road tax.
 Many other equally interesting and practical reforms are pointed out on the subject of schools, the Australian Ballot Law. the Eight Hour Law. Fish, cries, Marriage licenses, the Home Guard. and the office of the Gov ernor.
 In conclusion Governor Riggs says, "I beu to assure you l am ready at all times to discuss any proposed leg islation with any committee or n,em- ber of your honorable body, and to submit any information contained in my office, to the end that we my all work in complete harmony for this oreat Territory so dear to our hearts"

WILSON TO TILT LID ON LIQUOR
OCT. 1, RUMOR.
Banks With Money Tied Up in
Stored Goods Bring Pressure.

Washington, d. Washington
is alive with rumors that the presi-
dent plans to lift wartime prohibit
ion on Oct. L.
The report is that pressure by
banks has been exerted and that the
president will permit, for business
reasons chiefly, the sale Of liquors
for the three months remaining be-
fore constitutional prohibition be-
comes effective in January.
Since July 1, it is said, govern
ment receipts from internal revenue
have fallen greatly, with the result
that the ways and means committee
now is seriously considering the
necessity Of enacting additional re-
venue raisers to make up for the
losses from whiskey and beer taxes.
! But the serious aspect which is in
fiuencing the president to act, aside
from his known desire to play fair
with a semi-legalized industry, is
the great amount of money loaned
to distillers and brokers on whiskey
| in storage. In many sections banks
find themselves seriously hampered
by the inability of the whiskey men
to lift the loans.
BY Oct 1, it was estimated today
by a war department official, the
army will be demobilized to all in
tents and purposes. President Wilson
indicated in his statement issued
when he left Brest, refusing to lift
the ban at that time, that he could
not act until rehabilitation had
ended, but intimated strongly that
he would act then.
In anticipation of such action,
dealers are now sending letters to
members of congress offering to sell
them wines and liquors at greatly
reduced prices on Oct. 1. These let
tiers say that the wet stuff cannot be
sent to them in Washington, but will
be delivered to them in Baltimore or
in outlying districts.
| Leaders in the Anti-Saloon league
have started a campaign to keep the
lid down until Jan. II, when national
prohibition becomes effective.

DEMOCRATS BOLT WILSON.
american Party" Assails Radical
Policies and Leader.

Fort Worth, Texaas.-Many Texas
democrats, dissatisfied with the pre-
sent democratic leaders and princi-
pies, conferred here yesterday on
plans for party reconstruction.
One faction began the formation
Of a new political organization to
be called the American party" The
other faction, headed by Joseph w.
Bailey, former senator, urged chang
es within the democratic party.
James E. Ferguson, former Gov
ernor, delivered the keynote address
to the American party faction.
After that set of principles was
adopted.
The platform of the American
party" expresses opposition to the
league Of nations as at present con-
stituted; opposes national equal suf-
frage and prohibitions; demands
prison terms for trust formers and
urges return of the railroads to
their owners.
Mr.. Ferguson assailed Senators
Culberson and Sheppard, declaring
if they had followed the mandate of
the people of Texas, woman's suff-
rage never would have been submit
ted to the states.
THE time has come" he said, 'to
curb the growing tendency for the
government to do everything and
manage every mans business for
him, whether he wants 1t or not.
This party stands for more person
al liberty and proper representation
in government" ~
