In matters polit, v ip.ed with the dunce-cap methi '.hr Harding administration . ; iv i.ed the rumor that the so'ic .^uui is rearing: 10 piunge ncaaionc into the Republican reservation. W; refuse to be stampeded into a seriom discussion of any such propaganda We have been hearing such predic. tions since puns was a kitten, am. every time the South came along nl the succeeding election and piled U| such outrageous pluralities for tin Democratic ticket that it made oui jaws tired to count it. We refuse to grow panicky at th attempted efforts to raise smok< screens on the part of a baker's dozei of special privilege propagandists 11 Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Texas South Carolina, North Carolina ant elsewhere in Dixie to prove that th' South has divorced its theory that th' least the federal government can nied die the better it is for the public wel fare. We deny that the voters o Dixie are ready and willing to crucif; nkind on a cross of tariff gold fo hit oil'h of linincr fhni?> no/ilrnto """V ? " & VUV.l J/WIWVO V?*VI unearned pelt. To be sure the lumber barons th< peanut politicians?and some of th b omides who hire negroes to pro duce them?and the sugar kings, ar already talking loudly right over ii the chimney corner with New Eng 'and's federal tax-collectors, but then . > n million home-builders to ever1. mber czar, and the builders deman< "rce lumber. This same policy appliei to sugar and peanuts, and we scon argument that tells us that we wan to tax ourselves on these necessarici and near-necessaries of life in orde to satisfy the greed for gold of th< tariff barons. Such is the situation from the South bank of the Potomai to Yuma, Arizona. If the G. O. P.? T ord save the mark!?still refuses 'j !:mlnnte the mote in its eye, how ;t is given leave to come righ 'own here and begin its saving tmpa;gn. Ar.d. if it is prone to accept th< are, we here and now demand an ex planation of the apparent Hardin; i,corn of the South. He is the onb Republican President in history, savi Chester A. Arthur, who shut-ou Dixie from cabinet honors. With i cabinet of ten members, tbe open re buke of Mr. Harding to the Soutr may be glimpsed as we run, when it u recalled that President Lincoln's cab met of seven members contained < Southern Attorney General. Presi(i?nt Grant's cabinet contained thrc Southern members, Hayes' three Garfield's one, Harrison's two, Mo Kinley's one, Roosevelt's four am Taft's one. But when the old Mothei Ilubbard of Dixie Republicanism went to the cupboard of Warren Gamaliel Harding for a bone, she discovevec the cupboard was bare, and so he< poor dog had none! Still, if the Republicans insist or saving us they are welcome to wade in?.the water is passing fine. How. ever, we have no hesitancy in telling them before hand that they will realize that Jordan is a hard road to negotiate, before they get to the end of the trail. They must show us that they tre ready to smoke the nigger out ol the woodpile, divide the spoils, recog ize us when they meet us in the cab r?t and?then we are ready to inrm them that our principles are not '">1e. In view of this pain, blunt Inn tion are they still rearing to m ~ ?? Columbia Record. Left at the Post "I heir you and your wife had some word.s last night."

Big Air Liner Seen i | y In Near Future } r Y Kokker, Dutch Inventoir, Predicts 24- r 1 Hour Trip Across Atlantic ( Soon. j, a London, Sept. 9.?"The airplane of 3 the future will be at once the most F ghastly and sublime machine ever created by the hand of man." 3 This is the statement of M. Ani thony Fokker, the celebrated Dutch ( . airplane inventor, who is now in Eng. L> land securing designs and plans which j he will use in his work in furthering j ^ military and commercial aviation in j 1 the United States. m r s Airplane service crossing the At- x ^ lantic five or six times a day, and airplanes capable of destroying entire ? cities in a few hours, are the predic- e 5 tions which Fokker makes, i* "The airplane of the future depends t 3 almost entirely on motor and fuel de- j ^ velopment," Fokker says. "If this < continues at the same rate of prog- ( ery 20 minutes as regularly as the ( ' modern train service in all directions, f > "The actual size and speed of the j. . machines will not increase so enor- ^ t mously as the numbers employed. Some 120 miles per hour, with a range r ? 1 I 1 J- ? 51- ' ux several nuii'jrens mnes, Will De tnci ^ standard model for commercial pur- j. e poses during the next 10 years. j "Passenger machines will not, in y. y the immediate future, hold more than j, 20 or 30 passengers, and bombing air- r ' planes will be unable to carry much ( 2 more than 15,000 pounds weight of t explosives. t l "Freight machines will, of course, (] be kept as distinct from passenger j machines as are goods trains and ex- ^ 1 presses de luxe on a railway line. ^ "In 20 years' time the Atlantic will 0 . be bridged by an air service running , five or six times a day. In 50 years' e time I prophesy that the machines r will contain all the comforts and dis- v 5 tractions of a big ocean liner. t , "Palm courts and orchestras, dance c . floors and dining rooms, card rooms n j and lounges, all will be there. The a journey will take 24 hours. c "The war was far too short to de- ? l V ^ velop aircraft. ^ I "The next war will see the utter g I impotence of the battleship. The nor- p . nial procedure of attack from the air n will not be direct. The weakest part ^ of a battleship is its bottom. That is j 1 where it will be attacked.

I should hate to be in the navy ^ . for the next war. , "Retaliation will form the major ^ part of future wars until wars are S) tendered so hideous and annihilating ^ that they will come to an inevitable stop. n "The airplane of the future will ^ indeed be at once the most ghastly y and sublime machine ever created by the hand of man." ai Postmaster's Problems To be Discussed 1 San Francisco, Sept. 11.?Problems confronting smaller postofficcs ff throughout the country will be dis- bi cussed by the National League of f( Postmasters of the United States, an organization composed of 10,000 third y( and fourth class postmasters, when it "i meets here in annual convention September 18-20.

( 'here were four artillery regiments i the division, and this -being un nown to the official who made proision for the decoration ceremonies, nly three regiments were ordered toarticipate. When it was discovered hat no provision had been made to ecorate the 147th colors, the French overnment communicated with the Inited States secretary of war. When egotiations were completed the regment was back home and demoblized. The decorations for the regiment's colors were forwarded to the ecretary of war, who has instructed leneral Pershing to confer the decoations. William A. Hazle, adjutant general f South Dakota, who served as lieuenant colonel of the 147th during the var, will participate in the ceremonies and has invited all former members of the regiment and all former service men in the state to atend. The regiment was organized in Ocober, 1917. The regiment was then n camp at Camp Greene, Charlotte, tf. C., as part of the Fourth South Dacota Infantry. Two batteries of the| egiment were of the Oregon National iuard, the balance being South Dacota men and replacements. 4 aval Entries In Pulitzer Race ft Detroit, Sept. 12 (By the Associatd Press)?Seven United States naval lirplanes will participate in the ^ilitzer race when the 160 mile test s staged in the air here October 14, t is announced by the Naval Bureau >f Aeronautics. In addition, there vill be a number of machines reprcenting other branches of the Araeran fighting forces, as well as those ntered by civilians. The navy also will make an effort o capture the Curtiss Marine trophy n the race to be held over Lake St. Dlair, near here, October 7, having ntered 11 seaplanes in this event. )nc naval entry has been announced or the Liberty Motor Builders tro>hy race for observation planes Ocober 13. The naval entires for the Pulitzer ace follow: Curtiss Navy Racer, vith Curtiss D,12 engine, 400 horsetower. A similar type won the 1921 Julitzer Trophy race at Omaha. It las a speed of 186 or more miles an .our, to be piloted by Lieut. Frame J. Fechteler, U. S. N., of San Rafael, Jalif. Two planes, engines and specificaions not given. The machines will be riven by Ensign Alford J. Williams, r., of New York, former member of he New York National League base all team, and Lieut. Rutledge Irvine f Brooklyn. Two Booth Navy racers ?(BR-1), with Wright H-3, 400 h. p. ngine. Each of these entries has a eiractame landing gear by means of yhich the entire gear is pulled into he body or fuselage while the niahine is in flight. Only an unbraced nonoplane wing is used and no raditor is carried, the wing being covcrd by a thin sheet of copper under /hich water circulates. This makes he wing act as a radiator as well as upporting the plane. If these planes urvive .ne test of the race they will ffect the future design of all miliary and naval aircraft, it is expected, 'ilots, Lieutenant Stephen W. Callaay, Bismarck, N.
