OPPRESSION DESTRUCTIVE

Russla's best sailors are from Fin
land and the Battle provinces, but the
Russian government has alienated the
Films TO such an extent that It In
doubtful whether their services are
available In the present war. In Fin
land the feelings between the Russians
and tho Films are now so strained that
they avoid one another In business as
we'll as In social gatherings. No self
respecting Finn win have anything to
do with Russian. A correspondent Of
the Boston Transcript, writing from
Helslngfors, Gays that II Russian goes
into store and orders a certain article

ply. II he goes to a hotel-all the rooms
are taken. II he wants to hire house

record where a Russian official had
contrived to get an avarlcious Finn to
hire a certain house with privileges of
sublettng 1t. When the Russian official
moved into the house the landlord Wig
orously protested against It. He would
have no Russian In his house. He was
shown the contract which he had sigh
ed whereupon, In order to Dust the
Russian, he went and sold the house
for sum far below Its real value.
Russia had no truer no more faith
full, subjects in all her vast domain,
than the Firms. In the Turkish war
they gave the very best account OF
themselves. Russia has now forged the
links Of slavery around the Finnish peo-
pie. As slaves they viii not fight her

PEARY'S PLANS.

Lieutenant Peary seems TO be more
interested in the conquest Of the Arc
tic regions than In the struggle be-
tween Russia and japan for the mas
tory of ASIA Recently he explained,
In a nubic address, his new plan, upon
which he confidently bases his hope Of
success. THAT PLAN" he said, us based
upon twelve years Of almost continu-
Gus work and effort IN the Arctic region
II contemplates first powerful ship
to my winter quarters; the utilization
to the utmost extent Of the services
Of a little tribe Of Eskimos whose mem.
bers will go with me anywhere and
do anything for me, and the use OF
the American or Smith Sound route to
the North Pole. This route he further
explained, may he divided into two
portions--the naylgable part, which
may be covered by ship starting from
New York and going 10 Cape Sabine,
to the northern shore OF the American
continent a distance Of some $50. miles
of encountered navigation, and a
sledgc journey from the northern end
Of Great Land straight across the cent
trail POLAR pack to the Pole Itself and
back. making altogether 400 nautical
miles"
The explorer went on to say that the
journey from winterquarters toward the
Pole would be started by an advance
party Of three men with two sledges.
These he thought, ought to be able to
make n trail AZ the rate Of 10 or Il
miles day The main party Of twen-
ty-Ayo would follow with a heavy load
Of sledges. with each 10 miles Travelled,
two men are to be sent back, so that
the last 100 miles are finished by only
four including Of course the explorer
himself
Lieutenant Peary did not venture
guess as TO what he would find az the
goal of his journey, but he thought II
not impossible that he might find land
there, with a new and strange fauna
and fora, Possibly he adds human
life would be encountered new peo-
pie. and that would be a revelation In
deed,
Lieutenant Peary deserves success.
II perseverance and courage merit re.

problem was practically solved. but Mr..

THE GREAT WATER PROJECT


one feature Of the plan presented to
the national authorities by Messrs' F.

grand scheme Of Irrigation for Utah, Is
the provision for government inspection

tails, Is to be performed by experts at
