Famous Explorer VIII Not Again Try
to Find the Pole.
The Daily Chronicle publishes the re-
port of an interview with DR.. Frithiot
hansen, the Norwegian explorer, who
is now in London, in which the famous
traveller is quoted as saying that he
does not intend to make another at.
tempt to reach the north pole.
DIR. Nansen says he already has col
lected all the data he considers neces-
sary to enable him to work out the main
scientific conditions of the north polar
area.
He would, he says, like to explore the
region to the northward of America,
but thinks it improbable that he will
do so, though perhaps he again will
make tour of exploration of the re
gion between Spitzbergen and Green.
land, mainly with view of testing with
improved implements the temperatures
noted during the voyage of the Fran.
After his lecture tour through Great
Britain and the United States, DR.. Nam
sen will probably devote himself to the
work OF completing the scientific re-
suits of his expedition.
In reply to question whether or not
he would go on voyage to the ant
arctic regions, DIR. Manson said such an
expedition now seemed doubtful. He
rebutted the suggestion that the Fran
was not suited to such voyages, and de-
clared that, with such vessel, he could
face any sea.
DIR. Nansen Also assured his question
er that it would be an easy matter for
anybody with the necessary amount OF
endurance and confidence and knowl-
edge OF the conditions to reach the
north pole.

One Thing Could BE Truthfully Said of
Him.
When the bucolic gentleman with
goatesque whisl<ers and a hat of the
accordion pattern stepped briskly into
the elevator and announced a desire
just to make a couple of trips while he
was taking a ''noonin'," the youthful
conductor of the lift was tickled to the
soles of his feet. The people of the
building were out for lunch and he had
clear field for sport.
"Are you all ready?" shouted the boy,
as though the slightest neglect in being
ready meant serious disaster.
''Let 'er go, sonny" responded the
man from the country, while he chewed
slippery-elm bark with the same indus

That sonny" touched Young Amer
lea in a sensitive spot and they went
to the roof with a Whit that sent dust
and papers whirling through the corri-
doris. The boy turned to see his pas
senger with one leg hanging loosely
over the other, his jaws working without
change in time and his appearance as
calm as though he were sitting on
stake-and-rider fence watching things
grow.
Down they went with a bang and the
old man only asked if there wasn't some
way in which 9Th mersheen could be
made to hump along leetle faster"
Then the desperate lad pulled the throt-
tie wide open and before he could check
the terrific speed the upper end of the
course was reached, the cables snapped,
the car dropped like bullet 10 the air
cushions below, bounded half q story
and finally settled, with the boy scream
ing from fright.
"Can't we make another trip or two?'
asked the unmoved granger. "rhar's

Indiana's Governor Discusses the En-

Good roads are essential to our high
est development socially, intellectually
and financially. Many counties in our
state, actuated by a commendable spirit
of progress. are rapidly improving the
highways. In the near future some of
our counties will have complete sys-
tenn of free gravel roads. The main
thoroughfares in these counties, hav-
ing been graveled and received by the
county commissioners, are kept in re-
pair at the county's expense. The
supervisor, being thus relieved from
care of the main thoroughfares, is en-

at his disposal upon the lateral roads;

In the last presidential campaign the Demo
Gratis declared for bimetalIism by the indie
pendent action of this government, and the
Republicans declared for bimetallism by in
ternational agreement, and pledged the party
to work to secure it.
On this point, it will be perceived, there
was not much difference between the two
parties. The Democrats believed this coun-
try was great enough to have its own none
tary system and wise enough to formulate a
stable one. The Republicans favored the
free coinage of gold and silver, but believed
that an international agreement was necessary.
There was a considerable part of the Demo
cratic party in Maryland who believed in the
single gold standard Some voted for the
Palmer and Buckner ticket but the most of
them voted for Mckinley, under the mistakes
notion that Mckinley stood for gold mono
metallism, and realizing that the contest was
between Mckinley and Bryan.

gress stand on the financial question is told in

Coal Miners and the Tariff.

The ostensible reason for high tariff ad
yoeated by manufacturers and coal and iron
operators is to enable them to compete with
foreigners. who work pauper labor, whereas
the American labor is high priced. The tar
if on coal has been raised from 40 cents to
81 cents IA ton, but the coal operators made
no rush to raise the price of wages of the
miners. The miners made demand for an
increase some weeks ago. The demand was
refused and many thousands of miners are on
a strike in several states. 1t is perhaps the
most extended strike for some years, and
comes at time when the country, according
to Mckinley promises, should be in the midst
of the most prosperous season the country
has known for a generation.

Not Surprised.

There was something of a sensation IN Bal
timore this week over the removal OF Marshal
Frey and several policemen. The ADVOCATE
is not at all surprised at the attempt OF the
Republican Commissioners to reorganize the
Baltimore police force and make it strictly
Republican machine. Fhat is what we ex-
pected when the Democrats helped the Allie
gany Ring to elect Governor and LegIsla-
ture. The development of tyrant like We'll
lington, the wrangle between Hooper and the
Council, the fraudulent election law, an ex-
pensive and unsatisfactory assessment law,
scandals over the election of a United States
Senator and general incompetence and rank
partisanshlp and more was expected. The
ADVOCATE is not surprised at this The Won
der is enough people were fooled into over
turning Democratic rule by two papers that
were moved by hatred and malice alone.
If the Republicans are not checked by an
overwhelming defeat at the polls in Novem
Der taste of Radical rule as prevailed from
1862 to 1866 may again be experienced. A
good start has been made by the manipnla-
tors, and another lease of power will be dis.
astrous to Baltimore and the state.
