In the October number of Munsey's Magazine Representative James Tawney, of Minnesota, had an entitled "Why the Republican Should Retain Control." We thought we knew where and when would get his and put the article and waited. He got it Tuesday--got it right where the chicken caught axe. And we want the thinking and ligent Republicans of Virginia to minute or two about Mr. Tawney. He has a national reputation.

chairman of the tremendously portant appropriations committee was the most important member the house next to the speaker. President Taft himself went to his district to help him and made a speech practically in his behalf. President and Mr. Tawney defended the PayneAldrich tariff bill, just as Mr. Slemp de doing and as Mr.

Parsons is posed to be doing so far as he say anything. The Republicans of Tawny's district are an exceptionally high order of American citizens. the people of the Ninth and Fifth ginia districts, they live chiefly farms. In the ten counties of Tawney district there is no large These thinking, practical American farmers had put before them the same arguments in favor of the PayneAldrich bill and the Republican tariff neasures, for which Mr. Slemp voted and Mr.

Parsons would have voted, hat Mr. Slemp and Mr. McKinlay putting before the farmers and busiess people of the Ninth district. The Minnesota farmers, shrewd and careul men watchful of their own intersts and those of the country, voted Against Mr. Tawney by a great maority.

They refused to renominate aim to represent them. They refused 0 be convinced by his arguments hose of the president. They would not tote for him even with his great uence and reputation and even hough he was backed by the presient of the country and the head he Republican party. The Ninth district Republicans bad 0 opportunity to select their candiate for congress such as the Minesota Republicans had. Their nomlee was chosen for them by a conention composed largely of appointed (fice-holders and in the selection hich the rank and file of the party ad little voice.

They have the oportunity to do as their fellow Repubcans and fellow farmers in did. They can express their disaproval of the Payne-Aldrich bill ad of those who supported it and Spear to defend and uphold it. They in make their opinion felt at the alls in November. Common sense must tell them that Minnesota Republican farmers ust. have had strong and clear asons for cutting down a man like iwney.

If the Republicans at the orth reject Hale, Boutell, Burrows Tawney Republicans at the South jould reconcile themselves easily to lecting Mr. Slemp and Mr. Parsons. James in his article in Munsey's was ore emphatic than convincing. He Inted out that the Republican parbegan to legislate fifty years ago.

very constructive, beneficial and imrtant act since that time, he says, been the work of Republicans. The truth is the Republican party ed its first ten years on the war, next fourteen on sectionalism and lived the last twenty-six on protion and paternalism, aided by ne Democratic blunders. The first If of its life was spent trying to tah Southern white men under neles. The last half has been spent Ing to crush Northern white men der nabobs. Its earliest efforts were oted to making mongrels at the hth, unsuccessfully; its later efforts re been concentrated successfully making millionaires at the North.

its youth it lived on hate: in its eness it has existed on greed. In earlier years it catered to passion, ts later to avarice. three great problems have been bethe American people. the first was the reconstruction and oration of the divided Republic. this the Republican party failed erably, horribly, criminally, people took the task from its ds and did the work themselves.

other two are the currency and tariff. The Republican party has us through forty-five years of ze with a currency system estabed under martial law and as a war reency measure, It has given us currency system which enables aty men to corner the money supand a tariff system which enables men to corner the commodities people must have to live. The systems work together to the end of concentration of wealth power. They have given us a of violent and unwholesome uationa, with extreme high prices Inflation one yeor and extreme low and depression the next. The tical effect of their policies is ily before the country.

It has to make a few persons and famenormously rich, steadily dresing ta from producing many. This ecisely the reverse of wise statesship, which is to provide stable steady conditions and 80 to diswealth that everybody shall some and nobody more than can ted decently and comfortably. ople are looking at the general and are declining to be dised by detaile or temporory issues or questions of method. They know the conditions we had reached after fifty years of Republican supremacy Were not wholesome. They saw political power being gathered in the hands of a few bosses in the States, responsible to larger bosses at Washington.

They saw legislative power being drawn into the keeping of three four men and the, power of the people to demand and direct legislation 1 practically destroyed. They saw shameless corruption in State governments and legislatures and most dangerous combinations between political powers and financial powers, working together and helping each other against the people. They saw the grip of financial and industrial kings steadily tightening and the commerce, the industry and the financial and transportation management of the country swiftly and surely gathered into the hands of a few. Therefore the people say and see that the Republican party has failed in the management of the country's affairs as shamefully and abjectly as it failed in reconstructing the country. Therefore, once more they will take the work into their own hands.

Therefore Mr. Tawney and Mr. Hale and the rest of them are being overthrown. Therefore the Republican party, after its failure in government, is overthrowing the Stand Pat leaders responsible for the failure, just as it threw over the "Stalwart" leaders who were responsible for the failure of reconstruction but never could realize or would acknowledge that they had failed. 'The Stand Patters of today are repeating the history of the Stalwarts of 1880.

They are Bourbons of the same kind and will share the same fate. The unhappy Slemp, like many another small fish, caught in the bad company of obnoxious whales and will be pulled out in the same net. The intrinsic weakness and vice of the Republican party is that it never has understood or can understand the majesty, sense and strength of the a people. Always it has believed that the people could be tricked and led astray and amused indefinitely by campaign devices and appeals to their passions or cupidity. can not realize that when the American people determine to do a thing they do it and go straight to the core and the point and that no art can turn them aside and no power can stop them.

THE AIR SHIP. Beautiful as it is and wonderful as it is, the flying machine has about many whims and moods and notions as an unusually pretty girl of eighteen who has been spoiled and petted all her life. Yesterday's disappointment at the Fair Grounds was severe. Undoubtedly the fair management was to blame for failure to notify the public that a Alight from the grounds was unlikely or to arrange for a flight from one of the neighboring heights. The management, however, is not informed of the ways of air ships and is said to have believed to the last that a successful rise could be made in the available space.

But there was not room. The machine needed about 600 feet more space than it had. We are concerned particularly for the reputation of the city. We confess to some soreness at the thought of the people who came here on the assurance of Roanoke people and the newspapers that the exhibition would be given and who went home last night angry and feeling that they had been tricked. There was no purpose by anybody to deceive anybody.

We are convinced of this. There was bad judgment; but unaccustomed people On not be expected to have sound Judgment about an aeroplane. We hope sincerely that the promised flights for today and tomorrow will be triumphantly successful and will put a good taste in the mouth of everybody. If this is the result the success of the fair will be complete. FLYING MACHINE A DISAPPOINTMENT Continued from First Page.

grounds from which he could easily have made the flight. WIll Try Again Under New Conditions. I Mr. Ely, after his unsuccessful attempt at a flight hustled about the adjoining properties to the' Fair grounds and selected a destrable location from which he will try to make a flight today, from outside grounds, going over and around the grounds and alighting inside. The crowds gathered about the garage in which the bamboo, birch, Irish linen and aluminum machine known to the world as an aeroplane was resting on cute little bicycle wheels, early In the day.

As the hour for the advertised flight drew near the crowd grew larger and when the door of the building were thrown open and with "give A hand fellows' the mechanicians started It out. willing farmers, citizens and school boys got behind the flying machine and pushed with stich a vim it came near flying of its own volition. As the big cloth banner like car came into view there was 8 slight cheer. This grew as Mr. Ely stepped the sent and gave the word for flight to start, The garage is on the extreme east end of the race track and the plane was headed toward the west end of the enclosure in the center of the track.

The 35 horse power engine puffed, the crowd cheered and then the wheels began to turn as the car glided along the path toward the setting sun. For 200 feet kept to the ground. Then there was a perceptible rise 88 the machine left the ground. For three hundred feet, approximately, kept distance of about ten feet clearance over the Weeds the baseball diamond and then Mr. Ely seeing he could not leaye the grounds without a wreck suddenly came to ground and coasted along on the wheels for over one hundred feet, stopping over half way across the fleld.

This closed the flight. Back to the garage the aeroplane was pushed by the willing volunteer workers and as it WAS locked up for the night a heartily sore crowd left Fair grounds blaming the management for not announcing the inability of the aviator to use the field and for having taken their money knowing the conditions. Hundreds went out merely to see the aeroplane. It was advertised positively as an attraction of the day. Many men left their work, lost a day or half 8 day from their labor, took their familles and paid anywhere from $1.00 to $5.00 to see the aeroplane as the principal' attraction, and the Fair as a a time killer until the big, event.

These same people angry, hungry and sore, went home, and today few words will for the Fair Association. The hope is that a successful flight today may cause better feeling. The police work at the Fair been splendid and the order kept the grounds and at entrance the been excellent. Few arrests have or made and they were for small fenses. The Roanoke Railway and Electric Company has kept up a fast schedule to and from the gates, and cars are always waiting at either the or fair end of the route.

The congestion at the corner of Jefferson street and Campbell avenue is a draw back to the operation of the cars and could be remedied by the stationing of more than one officer to handle the crowds. The sidewalks are blocked and it impossible for the traffic squadman there to keep them clear. While many people await transfers the real congestion is caused by people who stand and watch the crowds and prevent passengers from reaching the the eity lines as they arrive. SCHOOLS CLOSE EARLY TODAY. This will be Roanoke Day at the Fair.

The city schools will close 2:30 to allow the boys and girls to visit the grounds and witness the balloon ascension and aeroplane flight. WILD WEST SHOW ARRIVES. Among the arrivals at the grounds yesterday was Burke's Wild West show. Members of this aggregation gave exhibitions of horsemanship on the track in front of the grand stand between harness races. FINE BALLOON ASCENSION.

La Roux, the boy aeronaut, made successful balloon ascension and double parachute drop at 3:45 in the afternoon. The big bag went straight up to a great height when the lad's father, standing on the grounds, fired a pistol as a signal for the youth to cut loose from the black air traveler. The avlator pulled a rope and shot downward a distance of 100 feet when 8 large parachute unfolded. Almost immediate: ly another report from the pistol told the boy to cut loose a second time. This time he divorced himself from the umbrella and fell another distance when a second parachute filled with ozone and under this canopy La Roux rode back to terra firma.

The parachute and its fearless passenger fell through the limbs of a big tree on the banks of Roanoke river just outside the south fence of the grounds. The lad was not injured. The collapsed balloon fell into the river. Master La Roux will make another ascension and parachute drop this atternoon, FIREWORKS AT NIGHT. There was a fine display of fireworks on the grounds last night, following the riding and driving contests.

There was no display of fireworks during the afternoon, the statement being made that the day fireworks did not arrive. There will be another fireworks exhibition tonight.

Cluett, Peabody Makers JUSTICE JOHN IS AT NEW MILE STONE Richmond, Sept.

Justice John Jeter Crutchfield today passed the sixty-sixth milestone in life's journey. Although nearing the three score and ten mark, the white-haired gentleman, whose kindly and benign countenance accompanies this little epitome of his life, is as hale and hearty and as active as he was twenty years ago. Indeed his health is better than it has been in years. The name of Justice John is an illustrious one, and one that is known from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from Maine to the Rio Grande, and it would not be hyperbole to say that his fame is well-nigh international. His administration of the laws he sees them in the police court.

as over which he has presided since July 1, 1888, has made him famous. His sound common sense in dealing with all classes of criminals. has made him a man to be quoted, and his humor has caused many a hearty laugh. Visitors to Richmond never feel that they have completed their visit unless a trip to "the court of Justice John' has been made. BURGLARS MOVE HEAVY IRON SAFE Norfolk, Sept.

Hauling a safe from the office to the work shop, some distance away, to be frightened off before the job of opening it could be accomplished, thieves left their tools in the marble yard of Lawson Newton, corner of Eleventh and Williams street, last night and escaped without securing any booty. What time the attempted robbery occurred not known, but the back door of the office of Lawson Newton's a was found open by a policeman early this morning and a member of the firm was notified. When he arrived at the place he found that the safe, had and been moved into the work that an attempt had been made to open the door. This was not accomplished and that the tools were left. where the would -be safe breakers were working, indicated that they had been frightened off while they were at work.

This was the third time that the office of Lawson Newton has been entered and on the two previous occasions small articles were stolen.
