REGION THICKLY SETTLED Suburb of Vincoonr, B. C, Is Scene of Daring Holdup, Perpetrators of Which Police Hare Lit tle Hope of rinding. VANCOUVER. B. C Oct- .

"If he gets no farther than Buffalo he will have broken the world's record for distance flights. And. after all, the demonstration that a long flight can be made Is of more importance, of greater value to civili zation, than a race or speed contest. A successful flight to New York, whether It Is made In the allotted time or not. means the opening of the practical fu ture for aeroplanes." Public Interest Lags. Public Interest in the flight has di mlnlshed since it became known that there would be no contest and that but one man would attempt the flight. The promoters of the race nung out xor several days Insisting that it be a real speed contest, but eventually made the best of the bargain and consented to pay one man the prise if he got through in the allotted time. Originally there were eight entries, Including five different machines, but all withdrew but the four Curtiss bi planes. The men riding these machines then decided they would not attempt any competitive race, but drew lota to see which one should make the race, and the lot fell to Ely. The exact secret of the row which resulted in the fall ure of the other machines to qualify has not yet been given to the public. When the race was first proposed. the Wright brothers refused to enter, saying they considered the dangers of competitive race too great. LIMIT IS EXCEEDED C. A.

WAIL AUTO DISCONTINUED Lake County Contractor Finds Stage Service Cheaper. Old KLAMATH FALLS. Or., Oct. 9. (Special.) Petitions are being circu lated in Klamath Falls, Portland. Sac ramento. Redding and San Francisco under the direction of hotel and trans fer men. to be presented to Charlea 8. Fee, general passenger agent of the Southern Pacific, asking that the train schedule in effect before September 1 be re-established. Prior to September 1 the local train arrived here at 6:15 P. M.. but since then has arrived at 8 P. M. Usually this train does not get In until an hour and a half or two hours later. The change was made at the Instance of the Klamath Chamber of Commerce, which desired that the local should wait at Weed for the northbound pas sengers, and save their having to lie over at Weed more than 20 hours. The train formerly left Weed on the ar rival of the southbound train and paa- sengers from the north had to remain in Weed until the following day. Since the new schedule went into effect residents of Klamath Falls have been unable to get their mall and ex press until The following day and this has caused complaint by business men. who say they would rather have the old schedule in force. But the cniei objection comes from the commercial men and the local transfer and hotel men. who assert that the present schedule works a hardship upon them. The commercial man gets In late and has to hunt up a place to stay after night, the hotel people object necause of the inconvenience of having to serve meals after hours. The transfer men do not like to meet the train at late hours. The petitions are being signed ex tensively here. VANCOUVER BOY KILLED SHOTGUN DISCHARGES, TEAR ING HOLE IX CHEST.

At n enthusiastic meeting last night a cam paign for the removal of the county seat of Cowlits County from Kalama to Kelso waa launched. Speeches full of optimism were made by a number of prominent It liens, among whom were F. L. Stewart. State Senator; W. P. Ely, John Ay res. P. J. Knapp. John L. Harris, L. N. Pla mondon, J. P. Buford, H. E. McKenney and Mr. Hall. Plans for getting Kelso's claims before the taxpayers were discussed and the proposition of raising a fund to be placed at the disposal of the County Commis sioners for building a new courthouse, provided Kelso Is chosen for the county seat, was unanimously adopted. Almost 4000 was pledged before the meeting ad journed. It was further voted to raise the sum of S5009 to be used In carrying on the fight and an executive committee of 25 was selected to manage the campaign. At the last meeting of the City Council It was voted to donate to the county a city block, valued at 115.000, as a site for the courthouse. The strongest argument put forth by opponents of county seat removal has been the cry that higher taxation would be necessary for new buildings and the removal of county records. The opposi tion also urges that road improvement be given preference over new county build ing. Kelso combats this argument with its offer of free site and free courthouse, and points to the fact that the county will retain the old building and ground at Kalama. which may be disposed of and the money added to the road Im provement fund. Four years ago Kelso offered the county a bonus of I15.O00 to be used for new county buildings, and this amount may be exceeded this year. Over TO per cent of the voters at that time favored re moval. Castle Rock entered the race four years ago. and owing to the three cornered fight Kelso was defeated. The committee of t5 will arrange to meet every voter and taxpayer in the JL county personally. The county seat re- J moval proposition will be argued purely from a business standpoint. DRY.
