ANONYMOUS LETTERS

We beg to take this method of ac-
knowledging the several letters that
have been received at the Banner"
office the past week pertaining to
the inefficiency of the Chief of Po-
lice, the Police Officers and the sPo-
lice Justice.
Letters are always welcome, and
we are glad to see that at last some
people are beginning to realize what
the Banner" has been advocating
for the past six months.
The letters which we would like to
publish, were unfortunately unsigned
and we ask the writer's lin the future
to sign their names and address and
if you do not wish to have the name
printed at the bottom of the article
it will be withheld. Write clearly
and only on one side of the paper.
In reading the letters of others and
in publishing the same, they express
the writer's opinion, which may not
agree with the Banners" views at
all. "A

THE SHENANDOAH

The Shenandoah, Daughter of
the Stars" is three widely scattered
heaps of tangled ruins on the rough
terrain near Cumberland, Ohio, and
her chief officer and many of her
crew are dead The beautiful silver
ship of the air went out literally like
a candle-fame at a breath.
When Byron, in his apostrophe to
the Ocean, wrote, more than CEN
fury ago:
Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee
in vain;
Man marks the earth with ruin--his
control
Stops with the shore
mans efforts toward the conquest of
the air has scarcely begun. The
hot-air balloon of Mongolfier and the
Improvements upon it of Charles and
Ropert represented pretty nearly the
total of achievement. 1t rs only
within the past quarter of century
that aviation has achieved a real
measure of success. The progress
has been great, and yet such a
catastrophe as the wreck of the
Shenandoah serves to show us how
little we have done toward the real
conquest of the air.
The eternal elements, which are
in the hands of God, were the undo
ing of the Daughter of the Stars"
In the first hours Of the horror that
has shaken the nation the report
comes from Washington that this
means the end of army and navy
activities with dirigible airships.
Perhaps this may be true; but the
Government may deem it necessary
later to revise this word. 1t is not
the dirgible alone, at this moment
that is being weighed in the balance.
Far off in the Pacific anxious eyes
are scanning wide wastes of stormy
seas for a venturesome plane and
its crew of five men, lost to sight
for several anxious weeks.
We must carry on, with other ma
tons, in the development of air.
craft. Many pioneers in that en-
terprise have already lost their lives
and there will be more to go. We
must "sail on, and on" but it is
clear that we must make haste
slowly at least with considerable
more caution than has marked our
activities heretofore. 1t is a curious
coincidence that these two great
shocks should have come to us prac-
Totally within few hours of each
other, and that simultaneously book
should be published in which Colonel
Mitchell again raises his voices in
criticism of our Governments man
agement of its air forces. The in
vestigation that must inevitably fol-
low upon the heels of all this horror
should be good for us. But mean
time the nation mourns the passing
of many good men, and the SYM
pathy of all the people goes out to
their stricken families.

Observation-Disclosures.

Thomas A. Edison, interviewed by
writer in the Dearborn Independent,
expresses the opinion (giye the
celebrated inventor credit merely for
an opinon!) that what We term in
diyidual life is nothing more nor less
than a society of infni,esma life
principles, everyone Of which has its
own identity and thinks, reasons and
.en'embers in proportion to it capae.
isy. OF in harmony Win its pecUl II
experiences.
He follows this with another opin-
ION to the effect that death is merely
a result of a social discomfort termin-
ating in the refusal of these life
principles longer to function in a
given body, and this implies a scatter
ing Of the self same principles into
other forms of life. These lite prin-
ciples, or units of identity, Mr.. Edison
calls his little peoples"
The average orthodox religionist
will think Mr.. Edison somewhat d3ty.
The average modernist will give him
credit for discovering a new Science"
Both theories may contain u grain If

Why does not the public aeeep. all
these notions, or philosophers ef
faith? Probably because the average
person is better satisfied with Moses
ard Jesus Of Nazareth who are
credited with being specialists in re-
Iigion.
If | wished to know anything about
science ! could approach no greater
authority than Mr.. Edison. If |
wished to be entertained by reading
fiction | would not seek more thrill
ing or fascinating writer than A. Col
an DOYLE, and if | wished to finish as
a first rate commedieune | could not
wish for better instruction than Mis-
Mabel Normand might provide; but
as an authority on questions pertain
ing to the resurrection Ct the dead
and life everlasting | do not feel dis
posed to trust any of them. In this |
am not sure that ] am not an eX-
cepdon To the rule, for it appears
that whenever anyone, who has
achieved fame, begins to express i

If we mistake not. Dean Swift had
something of the same imaginative
content which Mr.. Edison exhibits,
though the reader of Gulliyef's Tray
els was never quite willing to take
the story of the Liiliputans literally
chiefly because the dean was satir-
ist and did not intend to be serious,
but rather to clothe his satire in ale
gorical style. There is nothing feu1a-
tive, however, about Mr.. Edison. He
IS bald literalist, as is every seien-
fist.
There have been other famous PEI
pie who have exploited new theories
of the origin, character and destiny
of human life. Mr.. A. Conan Doyle is
certain that he has talked with his
mother since her departure for the
celestial kingdom, and Mr.. Doyle has
the endorsement of at least one scrip
tural incident, that Of Saul, Samuel
and the Witch Of Endor.
If We mistake not several moving
icture stars, equally famous in their
sphere rs Mr.. Edison in his, have
given out interviews on religious
topics.

1t has also been stated that bids
on engineering services cannot be ac-
cepted until the funds have been
provided for and raised.
Another interesting phase of our
local sidewalk proposition is the APP
parent manner ia which Council is
planning to take care Of that portion
of the work which is at all the street
and which is not asses
sable against any abutting property.
AS far as can be learned from the
limited amount of information which
the Sidewalk men" of Council seem
willing to divulge to the public, they
will make no division Of the above
from the straight work in front of |
properties and it is therefore as
sumed that the total lump Of all
work, including, making of maps,
giving of grades, financing costs,
etc as well as the actual construction |
work, will be divided by the proper
ty foot-frontage.
The. only advantage to be claimed
for this method is that the tax rate

The idea is that Of an indirect tax

several citizens who are giving

AVE brought this matter out and
tate that if such course is ptr :
ued, those assessable values in the

ais making an unfair burden on
holders. Instances of the
above are quoted, such as the Public
Utilities Corporations, whose assess

sessing personal property, which will
likewise not be affected. These will
enjoy the use Of an increased value
from nuhlic iYnlarovar,,ay,,t -xuh;ch

as Illegal.
