LANGLEY'S JIBING MACHINE The Oregonian waxes awfully funny over tho Uiluru of Prof. Langlcy'a flying macl lue, or aerodrome to nuko n mc cewful flight 0:1 the first trial. Tho Orcgouian eeoms to tako tho position hat this ilominit rates tonclualvcly wh.it it it tu-tutued ovory one knew bc fore, thai a ilyitiB machino is the droam of a ciank, and Protestor Liuisley and. ,1 r.io tlying machine are lu the aame elate with Laana Grejn and his'n. Kevertheh-er, Profetsor Langley is woikiiig on tho right lines, and elthot ue or omuonaclae will build a ma chine within thj next tow j ears that a til ilcmonstrcto that they aro right. The failure of Prof. Lntfleya assistant uiridt the air n-ith his machine at the irai trial, no more protoi that it can't bilont than tho failure of a mau to ride a bicycle en the first tiial proves that no bicycle can bo ridden. The uxplanation that the machino iv.8 no', properly bi-laucfl, aa this -f.uld only ba told by actual trial, la a Vfty reaeonablo one. If it was a litt ' down by tbo hfad," the very prlncl j.e.m wnichit depend fo flight would jauso it to como to lht ground, or in this cate to the water. Any boy. who has ever "tailed" aabingle through the air understand the aeroplane principle on which Professor Langloy ia working and be knows that if bo throws his bingle with a downward dip it will como immedlately-to the ground. That is what happened to thu aerodrome. Next time it may bo down by tho tern tco much, and if ita power ia not suffi cient to drive it uphill fast enough it will stop and fall more desastrouely than the first one, Bat control of tho machine will bo acquired, by this kind of expermental work, and tho men who are risking their necks are entitled to more credit than they eeem to be Rot ting. A TRUTH REITERATED There eeema to bo a disposition to misunderstand the Coast Mail's posi tion in regard to tbo controversy over the disposition of a certain earn of (500, Because Fire Chiof Murphy's statement waa given equal publicity with thet communication of bla critics, it la as sumed that tho Mail ia fighting hia aide of the battle. Nothing could bo more unreasonable. TheMAiL la not dis posed to butt into the argument aa to what should have boen done with that $500, whether or not the best disposi tion was made of it. There la room for a wido diversity of honest opinions on that point. The only statement tho Mail made on ita own responsibility , waa the one vouching for the fact that Mr. Murphy arrived at the engine cobm) before thej ouilno waa taken away. ThU statement la vigorously limited by pnttita who were In tho crowd, hml who did not rco nor hear Mr, Murphy there. This statement lion over, wo desire to relto r4to meat emphatically, and to Buyout' to those vsho uru so iuduatticu&ly doty lift it II at thoy ate placing tiiimmdvee u an aknrd position by'" ilenyItiix n (net. i do not care a tinker's an athema how umny peoplo dldti't ac Mutphj thuro; twooi tho Coast Mail forcodivl tee him there and at luaalono momber ot tht city council aUo saw him thfro.

Tho town baa soveral banks, any of which do business amounting to mil lions annually, Thoro are two good daily papers in the town, which bare always done the liona share in building their town. Added to all this, a prolific population, Salom baa nothing to fear if she can bnt philosophically live down bor present disgrace. Salem will, un doubted bo heard from when the next count ia on.
