PEARY AFTER THE POLE.
Many Great Difficulties IN tho way

Now that the nose Of Peary's Arctic
exploring steamship Is pointed north.
ward, there is time for Z sober an.
praisement Of the chances for and
against the achievement Of Peary's
main purpose, says the Philadelphia
Ledger s z.zz=: ~ .55s =. 49,, !
2 No expedition which has started
for the frozen north has been so well
provided with ship and engines es-
pectallyi designed to meet the condi.
lions to be encountered, and few ex.
plorers have had the long experience
aud training in the particular labor to
be performed that must be credited
to Commander Peary. The elements
of the experimental and the unknown
have been eliminated SO far as is
humanity possible, and, the enlistment
OF the aid Of the Arctic highlanders
adds feature Of strength to the
whole undertaking which it would be
difficult to underestimate. In ATTEMPT
i'~ to form a judgment as to the
{ Ices of success, we have to con-
TESS that the whole thing rests upon
climatic conditions which it is impos.
sible to forecast.
%Peary's plan, stated in the barest
outline, is to force his base-that is.
his ship and supplies, his dogs and
sledges-to position about three hun
dred and fifty miles nearer to the pole
than has heretofore been possible. In
this way he would avoid the long and
exhausting carry to the advanced base,
and would be in position to make an
earlier start, with fresher force, on
the final sledge journey over the ice
pack which he believes will bring him
to the coveted "farthest north"
No particular difficulty should be
encountered until the Roosevelt
reaches the head of Smith sound, at
about Is degrees north. Other YES.
sells of much less power have gone
farther, but from that point north.
ward the alternately wide and narrow
channel is filed with ice. If the win
ter in northwestern Greenland has
been unusually severe even the Roose-
velt's engines may be inadequate to
force the barriers, in which event
Peary will be no better off than he
was when he was forced to winter on
Mccormick bay. If, on the contrary,
he is favored with open waters, he will
enjoy the enormous advantage indi-
Gated. The other great element of I'M
certainty is the ability of men, dogs
and sledges to travel across the ice
pack between the shores of Great
Land and the pole. Peary has tried it
and has failed, but his confidence in
his ability to overcome in the future
the difficulties of the past is the chief
feature upon which our hopes of sue
cess are built.
In the last analysis any speculations
upon the outcome of an undertaking
as to which the essential conditions
o. success or failure are wholly I'm.
known must of necessity be akin to
the famous forecasts of the immortal
Bunsby If all goes we'll, if the Ken
nedy and other channels prove nav
igable, and If the ice pack on the polar
sea is traversable, Peary may win the
goal. If the barriers Of cold and ice
prove to be too formidable, the pole
will not be achieved this time.

that all labor parades should there
after occur on the first Monday in
September. This was before labor was
accorded the honor Of holiday in any
part OF the country. After the pass

organizations throughout the land be-

lures to make the day a legal holiday.
The Colorado legislature was the
first 10 take action and the first Mon
day in September, 1887, became, in Col
orado, the first legal Labor day ever
celebrated. Three or four OF the east
ern states soon followed and now near
ly all Of the states and territories have
committed themselves.
The present labor movement in the
United States and Canada received it's
first real impetus with the organiza-
ton OF the knights of Labor in 1869,
although the first trades union in the
United States was established as early
as 1903 by the tailors. Politics at that
time appeared to offer the most Ger

cal organizations of laboring men were
not uncommon at the end of the first
quarter Of the century. In 1929 dele
gate was elected 10 the New York
state assembly on workingmen's
ticket and few years later the general
trades union of New York city was
successful in electing it's representative
to congress. Various minor political
movements were coincident, about this
time, with the formation of a more
concrete labor sentiment, and out of
political activity, at different points
grew various municipal decorations or
trades unions. In 1881 a local union
of printers was organized and this was
followed by the launching of other
unions.

: There are some Waist-line sweaters
offered Of rather fancy sort. One has
bishop sleeves finished with narrow.
tight cuff Of contrasting wool, and square
neck with very high collar is also Of the
contrasting wool. Then the bolero has
even invaded this field, we are shown
the bolero sweater with half sleeve and
open in front. 1t seems to us q not par
ticularly sensible garment.
The surplice sweater is graceful; and
we also have one that buttons down the
front, is plain, but distinguished by q
very broad belt, which looks like .
baby's knitted band. The first is much
the better. Collars liked are gray and
red, and red alone is popular. There are
nice white ones with color in the trim
mings, but they are too fine for the real
outing girl, whose clothes are meant for
utility rather than display
Leather belts and tailored stocks ars
best for occasions informal enough for
the sweater to be called into requisition.
Leather to-day comes in such pretty
tones, and sweaters likewise. Green and
copper are very effective, and blending
OF colors is often seen in the knitted
wraps.
- Hats are simply trimmed felts Of easy,
comfortable appearance, like the rest of
the costume, suggestive of ability to
stand wear and tear. Skirts are at least
three inches from the ground, and some
autumn athletes 60 in for even brief
Ger petticoats. BY now one has got
used to the informality Of summer
costume, ready to exaggerate its COM
forts bit.
But the summer has been marked by
the vogue of the hated, rather than the
hatless girl, the outing hat. is an
important part of the costume. The
sailor wound about with a scarf is
liked, and. Tam o'Shanter effect is
in favor.
White serge and white mohair will be
worn very late in the fall, two Of the
popular summer styles. The serge is
made up in strictly tailor fashion, tho
mohair may be bit dressier With
bolero or Elton, the white mohair is very
dainty; the jacket short enough to dis
close the fancy lingerie waist, and itself
often, trimmed with double or triple
frills Of lace. A white summer It has
been, and the Indian summer will also

Some Good TRAVELLING WRAPS

A long coat that quite covers the gown
is a very useful garment to have in the
wardrobe, but not very we'll adapted to
pedestrian occasions-is too heavy and
cumbersome. For carriage and motor
wear, and for journeys by train, it is q
most serviceable and proper garment.
The new ones Of the autumn are rather
narrow across the shoulders, but the full.
gathered sleeves make up for this
change. A yoke breaks the length from
neck to waist, and the collar is a new
addition to the late 1905 wrap. Large

Labor day has come generally to be
regarded as national holiday, Al
though, as matter of fact it is q legal
holiday by virtue of the various state
and territorial legislatures. In effect,
1t is a national concession of one day
of 'ponp and circumstance" In labor's
long year OF dusty toll. The day has
been not only almost universally rec
osnized by the various states and ter
rltorfss, but in the majority of cases,
the labor celebrations occur at the
same time, on the first Monday in Sep
TENDER, symbol Of the general unity
OF purpose Of labor organizations. This
concord, which has doubtless done the
most to give the day its national as
pest, was the result of resolution

Plain Words to Motorists.

Motorists are very small fraction of
the population, and they all inflict some
annoyance upon the population atlarge.
The best of them cause smoke, smell and
dust, while adding very appreciably to
the tear>and wear of the public's nerves.
Smoke and smell are nuisances in towns
and the clouds Of dust extending for a
mile or more in the rear of q motor are
q nuisance and often a danger in the
country; II motorists could only be
made to travel in their own dust their

Cabin Door Notices.

AS the prospector leaves his
cabin after his summers work
and goes away for the winter, he
generally puts some form of no.
tice on the door.
In the Bohemia (Ore.) district
a miner who has just come out
says that he saw and copied the
following:
We're gone! No use to break
in as we cleaned up everything
to eat before we left"
At another place the notice
read:
There is nothing left but
BEANS"
The next read:
Go in and take what you want
but leave the grindstone.
Another:
He who enters here leaves
hope behind"
These prospectors will likely
all be back in the spring, but it is
probable that the Kansas rancher
who wrote the following, taken
from an exchange, will vote in
Oregon hereafter:
-Four miles from a neighbor,
sixteen miles from d postoffice,
twenty miles from a railroad,
forty-one miles from a church,
100 miles from timber, 300 miles
from a republican, half a mile
from water, quarter of a mile
from hell end the same distance
from a democrat. Gone to Ore
gon, which is Gods country, to
get a fresh start!' Nugget.
