ELECTION YEAR.
r
The Herald has heard no political
talk this year and has not the slight
est idea who will be candidates toi
county or state offices* in the primaries
this summer. We suggest that now
not knowing who there will be tc
vote for, is a fine time to make some
election resolutions.
Resolved, first, that we will- not
vote for any man who is opposed tc
enforcement of the law.
Resolved, second, that we will not
vote for any man whose object or
purpose is to upset the present order
of things.
Resolved, third, that we will not
vote for any man who is not progressive
or who seeks to hinder progress.
Resolved, fourth, that we will put
principle above politics and stick to
it.
Resolved, fifth, that inasmuch it
is useless to expect officers not in
sympathy with the law to make any
serious effort to enforce or uphold it,
we will not cast our votes for any
%
candidates who are not in sympathy
with the laws.
Resolved, sixth, that we will vote
for good men for office above person
T -
~al friendship.
Resolved, last, but not least, that
\ we will vote for no man who is unclean
personally, or who espouses unclean
politics or policies.
Many more good resolutions could
be added to these, but if these few
should be made and not broken it
would be a fine beginning.
THE WOMAN'S PARTY.
W
i
It is very likely that at the next
election some 20,000,000 women in
the United States will have the power
of the ballot. Will they use it?
^ We shall see.
The women in South Carolina will
not vote. There is not enough law
in the United States to compel them
to go to the polls, and we don't blame
-** T1 - ? ?? n# urnmon'o
Ill6m. it IS LIU UldllCl U1 nuuiuu u
rights. They have all the rights there
are to be had. There's certain things
that have to be done that women are
not called on to do. Voting is one
of them.
And yet, as good citizens the women
ought to vote, of they are given
the ballot?and as only three more
states are needed to make the amendment
law it looks very likely that the
ballot is theirs.
The women in some states will vote.
That's what makes it one-sided. In
the south only a few want to wear
' ' pants or have the time or inclination
to worry about imaginary rights they
do not possess. Nobody expects for
women to plow or dig ditches, and
. it would be useless for the women
themselves to want to do such a thing.
Of course, if the women in other
states want to dig ditches, we have no
objection, but why insist on our wornen
doing it, when they don't want to?
Anyway, the women are going to
exert a tremendous influence on elections
hereafter, and already the national
candidates are grooming themselves
carefully to meet the fair ones
in the campaign. Most of the presi *?
dential "timber" has already asserted
itself unqualifiedly in favor of woman
suffrage. Of course.

Almost to the Boards.
Mr. Blank is very wealthy and very
close. An acquaintance of his met
Blank's son the other day and said:
"Your father seems to have lost a
eood deal of money lately. The last
time I saw him he was complaining
and saying he must economize."
"Economize, eh! Did father sa\
where he was going to begin?"
"Yes: on the table, he said."
"Then I guess he must be going tc
take away the tablecloth," was the
final declaration.?Houston Post.

DRAMA OF THE
SKY AT DAYTON
I MAJOR SCHKOEDKR HAS THRILLING
ESCAPE.
Fall of Five Miles.
' New Altitude Mark of Thirty-Six j
Thousand Feet Set By Daring
Aviator*
Dayton, Feb. 27.?An airplane carrying
Maj. R. W. Schroeder, chiel
[ test pilot, at McCook field, today fell
over five miles after reaching an altitude
of 36,020 feet, said to be 5,020
feet higher than the world's record.
> Tonight the major is in a hospital
cnffprinp' from the shock and temDor
( ary partial blindness. Instruments on
( the machine indicate that it fell more
than five miles in two minutes. While
still 2,000 feet above the ground, the
: airplane righted itself and glided to a
> graceful landing. When the plane settled,
attendants who rushed toward
. it found Major Schroeder sitting erect
in the machine, apparently lifeless.
For a brief time, residents of Dayton
were sure a comet had appeared in
the sky. They had mistaken the trail
of vapor escaping from the machine
as it sped downward for a "stranger
in the heavens."
Thousands of persons gazed sky:
ward watching the plane which had
i escended two hours before, plunge
downward.
His senses numbed and his eyes
frozen shut in a temperature said to
i have been 67 degrees below zero,
j Schroeder regained partial consciousness
when 2,000 feet above the earth
| in time to right his machine and prevent
it from crashing to the ground,
out of control.
Onlv Sneck With Tail.
The thousands of spectators were J
unaware at the time they were witnessing
a "drama of the sky." They
saw a speck of black silhouetted
against the blue to which was attached
a "tail of grayish color." Gradually
the object was enlarged as it
" hurled to the earth. When but a few
thousand feet above them those
watching saw that it was an airplane,
turning in a tail spin. It was at this
point that Major Schroder regained
control of his plane and headed it
toward McCook field.
Here Major Schroeder made a safe
landing and collapsed. He was blinded
and his limbs were numb, despite
the electrically heated suit in which
he was encased. He was suffering
from the effects of a lack of oxygen.
When nearly seven miles above the
earth, his oxygen tanks became exhausted
and it was this which robbed
him of consciousness and caused him
to fall.
Mechanics and officers at McCook
field lifted Major Schroeder from the
plane and he was given first aid
treatment and later being removed
to the post hospital, where it was said
his blindness will be only temporary.
It will be several days before he will j
be able to use his eyes, according to Dr.
Howard V. Dutrow, an eye specialist
called into consultation. The
- J n-l J <? r?
tnermomeier on Major ouuiueuei ? ^
machine registered a temperature of M
55 degrees below zero Centigrade or ?
67 degrees below Fahrenheit.
Altitude figures from the barograph
reading indicated a height of 37,000 m
feet and when calibrated by Capt. ei
Harrison W. Flickinger, showed an
official attitude of 36,020 feet, a new
world's record and a variation of less d
than 1,000 feet. B
Airman Regains Record. ^
The mark set by Major Schroeder
again gives him the record which
Roland Rohl first won from him July
30, 1919, with an official altitutde of _
30,300 feet and later increased in a
second flight to 31,000 feet. It also
breaks the rcord of Adjutant Casale, h(
re
a French pilot, who was credited writh G]
an unofficial record of 33,137 feet. fo
pi
Major Schroeder was dressed heav- ei
ier than any polar explorer who ever ^
set forth. He literally was wrapped _
in flexible electric heaters. His flying
suit was lined with the fur of
Chinese Nuchwang dogs and between
the fur and outer lining, flexible elec- tl
trie heat units, connected by silk cov- ^
ered wires with the dynamo of the ?
engine heated the entire suit. $
In a like manner his headgear, u
gloves and moccasins were heated.
Major Schroeder wore an oxygen
mask of his own design.
Capt. Harrison W. Flickeringer,
chief calibration officer of McCook li
: field, said Major Schroeder's record v
would be first sent to war department j|
. officials at Washington and later to b
; officials at the Aero club of Amerlcca. q
; The Aaro club of America, recog- ?
nized by the Federation Aeronautique '
Internationale, will be asked to cer- h
tify the record of the world.
