NEW ERA OF ELECTRICAL POWER

DR.. Nikola Tesla, sometimes called
wizard of electricity" is predicting
a new electrical era in which electrical
energy will be available anywhere for
any purpose without local manufac-
ture. For example, motorboat, or
an airplane, may be driven by cleo
trfcity taken from the air, and cabin
in the wilderness may be lighted.
Briefly, the plan is to generate
electrical energy at the source of sup
ply by harnessing Niagara and other
waterfalls and to transmit 1t by wire-
less to receiving stations in other
places. Distance will be no impedi-
ment to the transmission of this en-
ergy, but various conveniently situ-
ated receiving stations can be estab-
lished for storage and supply. This en-
ergy is not to be scattered promiscu-
ously to the four winds OF heaven for
the free use OF all who care to '.tap"
it. It viii be controlled by a Iecret
key or combination like that of safe,
is intended win get 1t. The power IL

PREMIER HUGHES OF AUSTRALIA

1t transpires that President Will
son during his first attendance domi-
mated the peace conference to such an
extent that few of the members cared
to raise their voices against his. One
of the few, it is said, is William Nor
ris Hughes, premier of Australia. who
took exception to nearly everything
Mr.. Wilson had to say on the subject
of the disposition of the former over
seas German dependencies captured
by the self-governing British colonies
The contrast between the two men
is great. Hughes is small, weighs less
than 100 pounds and is alarmingly
frail, having been sufferer from dys-
pepsia all his life. The utterances OF
Premier Hughes suggested the labor
agitator rather than those of the uni
versity president or the statesman, be-
trayed a lack Of cultivation and were
delivered in tones that were not only
particularly rasping, but also unneces-
sarily loud, this being due to the fact

THE STATE MUST HELP ITSELF
Rocky Mountain News

Rocky Mountain News:--
The Colorado Railway comission
that was appointed for a specific pur-
pose in the spring of the year, has filed
a report with the governor that illus
trates the transportation situation in
the state. The report recommends
that Colorado as commonwealth do
for itself what the railroad corpora
tion under the old regime failed and
refused to do as business PROPOSE
ton.
To illustrate and be specific, the
Denver & Rio Grande Railroad cor
poration, that derives almost all its
revenues from the state of Colorado,
financed and guaranteed the construc-
ion costs of the Western Pacific rail-
road in California but steadfastly re-
fused TO spend a dollar in improve
ments or extension of its own terri
tory in this state, more particularly
in the west and southwest portions,
despite the work of pioneers in max
ing the valleys fruitful and uncover
ing rich mineral veins in the noun
tains. The New York managers have
been deaf to the pleadings of farmer
and miner.
When we come TO this side of the
range, the situation is fully as bad
and in certain respects, more to be
condemned than on the other side.
The trunk lines north and south, in
combination, have placed every OBJ
stacle in The way of the Moffat tunnel
and the extension Of the road into the
wealthy territory. Construction OF
the tunn ard extension of the road
would ope.- Cor development virgin
territory tl The roads entering Den
YER would benefit therefrom; but New
York says "NO!" and for the reason
that the new line would interfere with
the strategy of the present transpor
tation situation and reduce materially
the distarce between the river and the
coast. When the time comes the ter
ritory VIII be divided among the roads
