Oregon City--Judging from letter

the Oregon City land Office, from secre-
tary Of the Interior Hitchcock, 1t ia

his letter Secretary Hitchcock states
that time, July /, next, has been set,
a place named tor the removal OF the

Union-The sale Of Hall Bros. ranch

Pendleton --- The Blue Mountain
creamery, recently completed in this
city, is churning on an average Of
three churnings week of 500 pounds
Of butter each. The entire amount of
cream used in the churnings is brought
over from La Grande and Elgin, as the
farmers of the vicinity of Pendleton
have not yet been able to supply par
ticle of cream. Many are preparing to
fit up complete dairy farms on a large
scale, but as it takes considerable time
for this, the creamery will depend upon

IDENTIFIED BY HIS FRIENDS.

Mayor Mcclellan, according to the news
columns OF THE New York Times, which is
supporting him, again strikingly illustrated IN
his Friday night speeches his attempted double
pose as partisan and patriot. In Brooklyn at
one meeting he said to the audience:
1 ask you to vote the Democratic ticket: ana
by the Democratic ticket mean the city tickes,
the county ticket, the borough ticket the aloei-
manic ticket and the judiciary ticket
MCGOWAN, Metz, Ridgway-all are TO be swai-
lowed by the voter simply because they nave
been nominated by Murphy and McCarren!
At another meeting an hour later the Mayor
said:

my name is Mcclellan or because am d Oeii-
ocrat / want your votes on the ground that

RUssIA,S EMPTRE-BUILDER.

The world enjoys to-day the spectacle of a
great empre-builder at work. His task is diff
ferent from that Of any Of his predecessors. 1t
may be on the whole more arduous. Certainly
It Is scarcely il at all less important 1t was a
notable thing to make an empire through con-
quest and the subsection Of conquered races, as
did Give and Hastings; or through colonial ex-
ploitation and the penetration of barbarism with
civilization as did Rhodes; or through the con-
federation Of sovereign states, as did Bismarck.
But Count Whites task is far different from any
of these He has at hand all the needed terri
tory and people, without conquest or subsection.
He has the raw materials Of empire. thrown to-
eether in formless lump and permeated with
corruption. 1t is for him to eliminate the cor
ruption and abuses, and to leaven the lump with
national life, and TO shape the formless thing
into an imperial figure Of strength and SYM
metry If he succeeds. as we dare not doubt
be will, he, rather than Peter the Great, Will be
entitled to rank as the real founder Of the Rus
sian Empire.
IT was at the zenith of Peters reign that
A;on,esouieu wrote of him: '.He is the absolute

biS successors down TO within the memory OF

FEW QUESTIONS FOR 7


Is there any Intelligent citizen of New-York
who seriously doubts that Mr.. WINS would make
a better Mayor than Mr.. Mcclellan or Mr..
Hearst?
Does he doubt that Board of Estimate in
which Mr.. WINS. Mr.. Teale, Mr. Wells and
Major Ebstein sat would be better protection
TO taxpayers than Board of Estimate contain
ing MI Mcclellan, Mr. Metz, Mr.. MCGOWAN and
Mr.. Ridgway?
Is there any doubt that Mr.. WINS is absolutely
independent and would conduct the government
free from the dictation of any boss?
Does anybody dare to say of him that he
would be as good a Mayor as somebody else
would allow him to be?
Does anybody, even among Mr.. McC1ellanS S
most enthusiastic supporters, deny the essential
kindness and justice of "The NewYork Times's'
tribute to Mr.. Mcclellan that he is good
Mayor as Mr.. Murphy will allow him to be?
Can any supporter of Mr.. Jerome who is irr-
tated by the failure of the Republican party in
the first instance TO name him, find in that mis-
take any reason to favor Mr.. Mcclellan, whose
party stands behind Mr. Osborne?

UNKNOWN LAND NEAR THE POLE.

new project for Arctic exploration. con-
ceived by Captain Einar Mikkelsen was re-
Gently outlined by its author to newspaper men
while he was in London. He does not aim to
fnd the pole but to invade region which has
hitherto been almost entirely neglected
North Of the American continent there lies a
vast archipelago, which is separated on the
east from Greenland by the channel which
Peary took this year in order to reach his win
fer base ON the coast of Grant Land. The other
limit of this group of islands is the 125th
meridian of longitude, which runs upward
through British territory considerably to the
eastward of the Alaskan boundary West OF
the archipelago is a part of the Arctic ocean
which is known as Beaufort Sea. From the
coast of the continent, which here follows the
10th parallel of latitude rather closely, to the
pole there is apparently an unbroken stretch
of water One who examines chart of the
region will not find even the smallest island
until he has carried his inspection beyond
Retiring Strait Now, with the hope that he
NAV discover tract of land, big or little, which
has never before been observed by civilized
man, Captain Mkkelsen intends to explore
Beaufort Sea.
The first stage of his journey will take him
through Canada to the mouth of the Mackenzie
River There next summer, a whaler should
meet him and convey him and his few compan-
ions eastward to Cape Bathurst. Thence he
will try to reach Banks Land, a large island
which is probably less than hundred miles
away: and if he is successful he means to fol-
low its western edge northward to Cape Prince
Albert, some 100 miles further distant. 1t is
his purpose to deposit there store of provi-
sons for future use and then get back to the
continent for the winter. The final venture if
all goes WELL is to be made in March, 1907 1t
will be necessary TO regain Cape Prince Albert
by sledging over the ice pack. Having done so
the explorer will change his course abruptly
turning off to the left hand almost at right
angles with his previous track. The general di-
rection followed over Beaufort Sea will be west
of northwest The locality toward which
Captain Mikkelsen and his one companion will
then push their way lies in latitude 76 degrees
and west longitude 147. and it is almost due
north OF Point Barrow, Alaska
The quest i'll which Captain Mikkelsen is plan
ming to engage is not altogether absurd He has
encouragement not alone in unreliable Eskimo
traditions concerning the existence of land
from Siberia, but also in trustworthy reports of
iecting influence The latter testimony has
been advanced to support the theory that there
is land Mt the pole These reasons were fully
presented about eighteen months ago in ",rbe
National Geographic Magazine by Mr.
Harris, who is connected with the United States
Geological Survey. II on the one hand they
