a winter that knows no cessation, death
in some of its most horrid forms, priva-
ton of the direst description, and event
ual failure of the purposes of the
expedition. The loss of money involved
is a secondary consideration. The loss of
human life which each successive expedi-
ton causes is stigma upon civilization
and a disgrace to what is misnamed scien-
tifc research. No man has the right to
send another into a region where almost
certain death awaits him in search of a
chimera. If all the speculations
of modern scientists regarding
the arctic zone could be verified or
disproved by single expedition to
the polar seas, the result would not COM
pensate for the loss that has already been
incurred in pursuit of the will-o'the-wisps
that have made the ice foes of the north a
fearful charnel house, where the bones of
brave men lie bleaching in the light of the
Arctic twilight. 1t should be made a
criminal offense for any person or society
to encourage exploration in region where
death holds carnival, and a government
that fosters such enterprise should be de-
nounced as encouraging murder and sui
eide.

.ARCTIC EXPLORATIONS.

The loss of the Arctic ship Proteus, not
withstanding the extraordinary precau-

partment, the American Geographical
society and the society for the Advance

the idiotic if not criminal practice of send
ing men to certain death in the regions of
perpetual snow and ice. The ignis fatus
of northwest passage, by which the dis
lance between the two hemispheres might
be reduced in the interest
of commerce has been abandoned.
Sc also has been the quest for the bones
of Sir John franklin and his party. Yet

tensibly in the interest Of science or geo.

In 1873 the good Deacon Nettleton was
connected with Jay Cooke and the North
ern Pacific land department. He went to a
New York gentleman, ds q friend, and of
fered to sell him GAO acres of land adjoin
ing the town site of Glyndon, Minnesota.
The land was represented as belonging to
his brother but to accommodate his friend
he would dispose of it for
sirteen dollars per acre. The
good Deacon Nettleton offered to take
it off the purchasers hands at the end of
four years with eight per cent. interest if
the transaction did not prove satisfactory
Relying, as our correspondent seems to,
upon the superstition that Mr.. Nettleton
was an honorable man, the friend bought
the land ut SIC per acre and it was two
years before he discovered that the deeds
did not cover the land purchased. Nettle-
ton contracted to sell the parcels adjoin-
ing the town site, marked ga" and CPS in
the diagram, but his deed covered the land
marked Sd" and &C." Further investiga-
tion showed that instead of the land
coming from his brother it came
from Jay Cooke and Nettleton him
self, and that he had bought the
tract marked sc" for seven dollars an
acre, and turned it over to his friend in
place of the tract marked ga" at sinteen
dollars per acre.
Of course the good Deacon refused to
make good his agreement to take the land
at the end of four years at the
purchase price, and his friend finally
made sale of the land after the
lapse of ten years at loss, including in
terest, of some $4,000. This is a sample
brick and why our correspondent, or any
one else, should expect either honor or
decency in the Minneapolis Tribune while
it Is conducted by such man,is am ystery.

in numbe we're very earnest indeed, and
indicated determination to work as faith

as they v if there was more interest in
the great orm movement in the COM

ance, anc nted out what ought to be
done to = ne increasing disposition to
indulge IL .ong drink. The main point
in his arg" Mt was that there ought to be
no compr, g with the matter. It was a
great mo, I1estion, and as such did not,
in the maj, If the case, admit of compro-
mise. IT, % ly remedy was prohibition.
He favorea rmal and vigorous organiza-
ton, and IA rerlasting opposition to the
manufacth and sale of intoxicating
drinks. no other Way could the
great evil iriven from our midst. He
expressed + belief that the public taste
Ior lntoAlcasIng drinks ana Inc disposition
to drink were on the increase. He mani
tested no Encouragement, however, in
regard to Il g ultimate success of the tenn
perance can, and spoke with great conf.
dence in ard to the triumph of the
principle the prohibitionists. He
maintained { the manufacture of intox-
icating bev ,es was pecuniary loss to
the commua ). If farmer, he said,
raises Sit worth of barley and
it is Il .nufactured into intox-
icating beverages, and drank
up by the community, the result was
dead loss of the whole crop, besides the in
jury done to the community by the drink
ing of the product. At the conclusion of
Mr.. Satterlee's remarks it was determined
to adjourn TIL Friday night of next week
to perfect an organization, and prepare
for vigorous campaign in the temper
ance cause.
