Speculation in the Air.

As throwing some light on the
aerial visitor to Salmon the follow
ing item is taken from Wednesdays
Statesman:
Boise Is minus any suitable place
for an aviation field, as are most of
the cities and towns in the west, ac-
corning TO Captain Lowell Smith of
san Francisco, who arrived by air
from Mountain Home Tuesday.
Studying the possibilities of gov
ernmental landing fields and max
ing maps and photographs III occupy
ing Captain Smiths time while he
travels from place to place In the
high powered army biplnne. lie il
accompanied by Sergt. William B.
Whitefed, also of San Francisco.
They left Idaho Falls Tuesday morn
ing. and after visiting Blackfoot.
Pocatello, Twin Falls and Mountain
Home, they landed in Boise at $3.50
p. N. and registered at tho Owyhee.
Leaving San Francisco on their
trip, the two tliers flew as far east
as Cheyenne, and after going over
Wyoming and Montana, they came
into Idaho Tuesday. They will leave
this morning for Warren, Caldwell,
Weiser, Grangeville and Lewiston.
and will go out of the state at Pull
man, Wash. They will start work
ing Washington at Spokane. Wash
ington and Oregon will be the last
states covered before they go back
across the California line and 10 San
Francisco, Capt. Smith said.
Most of the towns visited are
without any sort OF field upon which
TO land, the aviators said. Most of
them. too, have no particular desire
for such field. and only when
plane drops on them from nowhere
in particular do they eyinee interest
in the things above the earth.
Boise Barracks formerly had
fine field. Captain Smith said. But
the building Of the polo field on the
grounds took the choice bit of level
ground, and IL Is difficult now for
large and fast planes TO make a safe
landing. The aviators experienced
little trouble on their trip, and hope
TO complete the tour this week.

proprietor. and Harry Stocker gave
an open air dance on one Of the floors

en- nloyable for a warm night and the
merry company of 10 persons broke
up all too soon, in the opinion of those
present. Mrs. William Beattie and
Harry Stocker were the musicians.

HARDING TAXES REINS
To WHIP UP" CONGRESS
lSalt Lake Trihunel

President Harding has at last an
nounced his intention of assuming
leadership for the purpose of forcing
action upon important bills now be-
fore congress. The executive has been
urged TO take this course for months
past, and the Washington correspond
ents have asserted that sooner or lat
er he would bow to the Inevitable and
follow in the footsteps of Wilson and
Roosevelt, at the risk of being called
an autocrat. The Legislative situation
at the national capital is not only de-
piorable, but alarming as well, and
unless the president is strong enough
to bring order out of chaos, the a l.
ministration will be compelled to
shoulder at least part of the blame for
the dismal failure of congress.
President Harding has steadfastly
refused to crack the party whip until
the congressional situation has become
so involved that no other course is
open to him. He is not boss" by
nature, and q great majority of the
people OF the United States will give
him full credit for patience and long
suffering before laying down the law
to the senators and representatives.
The main trouble is lack of leadership
IN both houses. There is no such
thing as party solardity, and the leg
islative situation has gone from bad
to worse ever since the regular ses-
sion began. The tariff, bonus and
subsidy bills are pressing for consid-
GRAFTON. Mr.. Harding believes the
tariff and subsidy measures should be
passed with the least possible delay
and he has threatened to call an extra
session if congress adjourns without
action on the latter bill. He is not so
keen regarding the bonus proposition.
1t is now up to the Republicans in
congress to furnish the president
with the necessary backing for the
good of all concerned

"A AMHEOR TWO IN AIR
FLYING OVER SALMON
GIVING TOWN A GOOD INsPEC-
TiON BIG MACHINE TAKES
OFF UP LEMHI VALLEY.

A large type of airplane, appearing
first to view from over the continental
divide TO the northeast, approached
Salmon high In the air and circiing
the townsite for half an hour as IL
picking out landing place, finally
took off up the Lemhi valley. IL was
going strong at Baker few minutes
later The coquettish visitor appear
ed on Monday little after the noon
hour. Though comparatively low to
the ground in its circles over Salmon
the machine was still too high To hold
conversation with its occupants
IL at any time the noise Of the motor
would have permitted. The apparent
flying height of the visitor was about
one mile and its speed beyond reckon
ing, for after leaving Salmon the dis
tanee of ten miles TO Baker was COW
cred in less than as many minutes.
Numbers of spectators on the
ground as il passed over were sure
they saw signs sticking all over the
flyer of its mission, one that il was n
Legion machine, another that IL WINS
a Canadian bootlegger and still an
other that il had been sent forth as a
federal spy on the illicit sale and inn
portation Of Canadian lightning.
Whatever its mission IL was GER
tainly on the way with some speed.
II was reported at Baker on Mon
day, after the plane pissed that way,
that it took a eonrs e over the old
Agency pass. This report also had 1t
doped out that an army officer and
his pilot We're the occupants Of the
plane, bound from Weiser 10 Dillon
on reconnoitre of the Rocky Noun
tain country at one of its widest
larts.
