WM Correct-Curt?**, Flew
(By Associated Prese.)
Elmira, N. Y.. Blay M.-TLe theory I
of Dr. Samuel Pierpont Langley, who |
proclaimed to the worid thai he hi '
solved the problem of the air several 1
years before the npper elements had]
been successfully navigated by a hav
ier-than-slr machine was vindicated at
Hammondsport yesterday, when Glenn
Curtlss. jhe, aviator, went aloft tn
Langley s folly."
Tho crme flying machine, which tell !
into the Potomac rir?^ when Dr.
Langley, its inventor, attempted to fly
In H and which later was consigned to
the Smithsonian Institution'At Wash
ington had every requisite for flight.!
Htfd remained in the.air long enough
to demonstrate the practical mind of
IOU maser who had been ridiculed by J
his incredulous contemporaries.
But for an' untimely accident, and]
what was termed the "miserliness pt
the government" Langley would have |
undoubtedly won fame during his life
time. Instead, he died a broken
hearted mao, after devoting twenty |
years ot his life to the ctudy of avia
tion. Years later others received the J
fame and credit where he should have
had a share.
Langley made the fatal error of try
ing to catapult the flyer into the air
with the aid of ponderous spring, but
he only succeeded in wrecking the ma
chine. Rad he tried, the method pur
sued today of running it along Uta I
ally in the air, there is little doubt he
would have made the first flight in a.
hsarler-t?t?d- alr aiachine.
The antiquated machine was sent to
Hammondsport about two isnatto ago.
Scarcely a change waa made hi ita I
parts. The surface of the wines,
which bad suffered from long storage
were replaced. Other minor parts re- !
paired were duplicates of the origin
als. The machine was driven today !
by the old motor built by Charles '
Manly.
Dr. Langley wa? the secretary of the j
Smithsonian Institution. He was Bat- j
laded of possibility of flight in heav
ier-than-air machines and spent years
?T working on the problem. In 1896
he flew a steam driven model a distance
of about a mile over the Potomac riv
er.

Kp COTTON ACREAGE.
The Goversaient Figures it Oat as
the Largest an Record.
j The Bureau of Statistics.. United
'Stetes D?pannent of Agriculture,
has made a revision of ita preliminary
estimates of cotton aereas* ,aat year
(1913) based Upon re sui u of a spe
cial investigation and Jte report of the
Bureau of the Census pf the quantity
Pf cotton ginned In the past season.
This revision indicates that the area
planted in cotton (in cultivation at
the ' end of June, 1913) was Vi about
37.458,080 acres, instead of 30,622.000
aa. reported last July. The revised es
timate will be used by the Bureau of
Statietics Ss a hists in making its
cotton acreage es tina tea this year.
The yield of cotton an- acre in 1913
ls estimated st 182 pounds, as com
?pared with 190.9 pounds in 1912,
07." .pounds in 1911, 179.7 pounds In
9IO, and 154.3 pbunds in 1909. The
area picked in 1918 was about 37,
089,000 acres.
The Government's revised estimate
making the acreage planted in Cotton
as of July 1. 1913, 31,459.000 acres-,
or l;836;C0O'acres more than esti
mated at the time, did not come as
a great surprit* to Ute trade. Ac
cording to this estimate, the are?
devoted to cotton enttivathm last
vd?r was the htrgest on record ex
ceeding that df 19iV the pr?viens
ressrd-'year, W t.???0? acres. It
confirms the view held for some time;
namely, that the Department of Ag
riculture made ai big underestimate
of fa? 'crem in December by rekson
ot the-fact that Its ?gare* were based
y&t&Jv" an estimate of the acreage
"-HD?ta#:rd th? high prie? for the
??fft* lair seaton, ?nd the?- conse
gfceat ?prent hr ?armers gefeSralty. it
is conceded ?tat a eebaantisi in
crease in acreage is certain. Varlbtts
private , authorities - have estimated
that lt wilt bo fpo? 1.5 per cent to
3.6 per cent. Qa the basia of a S
per - cent decrease, the acreage , this
pear should - amount to 09,550,840
heresy a 3.5 per ?sat increass-to 38.
T&Mvl ead a 4 per cent Increase to
W?120.
, The yield an acre last season wa?
a?i?n normal, being 182 psunds, not
withstanding the severe Summer
MhiUgbt. On the basis of the ammo
Htflfto au .a4Sor,i|akf' season, aa to

suggest an lacrease ot about 425,000

He Is Making Race On Own Merita
Not On Other? Shortcomings
Stands For Fair Play
Mr. Editor. Having announflE*
self a candidate for mayor, I dealn.
Btato briefly my position on some ni
tho matters abc it which the people ot
the city are concerned.
(First or all, let lt be understood
that I-'am making the race, on my
own individual merits, abd not on tho
demerits or abort comings of any one
elae, and that I stand for fair play.
It is needless to** make top many
promises, but I can give the'people
this- assurance, that if elected. I*, wilt
<givo my time to the duties of 'the of
fice and will personally look after
the various departments and will <ilve
to every part "of the city a square
deal.' It-must be remembered that
along with thc mayor, tbere will -bo
elected a full council of six alder
men who will have their share of re
sponsibility, and ! dc- net doubt that -
there will be selected men who will
measure up to their places, lt is all
important that there shall be co-op
oratkYu in the Interests of the com
munity. Anderson is taking on a great
growth and ls fast becoming a city
of importance in this section of the
south, and the office of mayor of a
city of ita sise and importance" car
ries with lt no little responsibility. I
faliy realise this.' and shall, feel bouna
to labor tv?"her Best welfare, aMd-Titf*-'
co-operation and' mutual confidence,
i expect, If elected to carry on a suc
cessful and useful administration.
As a g?n?r?t' proposition, I nland
for the moBt rigid economy consistent
With the greatest efficiency, and should
labor faithfully to accomplish the fol-.,
'ewin-"
r. Better street* heprovements. giv
ing my own personal attention to the

Iv City ownership of the abattoir and
the direct responsibility to tfie peo

3. Abolishment of the sanlUry dues.
The common people pay tr.eso tases,
aad they amount Sn effoct to a contri
bution by them to the sewer ben??,
when they get no benoni ot tho sys
tem.
Roductlon of street tax from
$3.00 to $2.00.
5. The maintenance of the Are de.

ficiency.
6. One clerk of council at a.,liv- ^

has not given, satisfaction- A man
selected by thc council inMcad of,the
'people is liable to feel his responsi
bility to the council instead of the
-people. On the other hand, ir he hold:?
himself responsible to the people and
not the council that elected him, he la
liable to be fired.
As tor the franchise granted by tho
present council to Ute Public Utilities
corporation, lt would apepar. to bo a
dead issue now. I fall to see how a new
council could come is and rescind
their action lt it ls In tho nature of
a contract sea des* legally, i do not
hesitate to say, however, timi, hid I
been a member of the council, I
should have favored tho submitting of
Iso important and far-reaching a mat
ter to a vote of the people ot the city.
Assuring the people that I shall
appreciate their placing in my hands
the trust which involves their Inter
ests, I shalt give to office my best
efforts. I am no ?tranger here, hading
lived here for sixty years, and hue
fffl?d important and responsible places
Having been cn the council tor about
c'ght years and chairman ot the most
important committees during that timo'
which gave nie ex per lonee tn city
government.
Iteopoctfully submitted,
