Explorers Have a Theory.

This trip viii be taken to make
sOUndings through ice cracks with the
hope of locating the edge of the CONT
mental shelf and the stretch of land
which, according to the theory of the
explorers lies to the northwest of Alas
ka in an eXpanse at present unknown.
The explorers base their theory on the
drift Of the jeanette and other vessels,
the known flights Of migratory birds,
discovering of Eskimo remains and sto-
Ties of natives who tell of land in the
direction where they intend to explore.
After they have started over the fee
into the unknown in the spring of 1907
the Duchess of Bedford will return to
Victoria bringing the results Of the
preliminary scientific work, and will
then return north in charge of DR.. Nc
LaTen of Glasgow, to find NikkeIsen
and LeffinEweIl. When their search is
successful or the decrease Of their pro-
visions make its necessary, they will
strike across the ice toward WTangell
island or the north Siberian coast,
where they expect to be picked up in
the fall of 1907. If the land sought is
discovered, a more complete expedition

nODERN WITCH BTRNING

An accusation that cannot be disproved needs
no proof Suspicion is a manifestation of
human self-complacency. We all know what a
derisible object an unsuspicious person is. He
has made humanity laugh through the countless
ages. He is wits best butt. No one wants even
TO be suspected of being unsuspicious. II reason
is the faculty which shows man to be above
the brute creation, suspicion is the gift which
most often convinces him OF his superiority. So,
if you make change which in its nature admits
OF no disproOf. yCu may trust suspicion partly to
faSten it on the accused Here is a man DOS
sessed Of the devil; what shall do with him?
Why obviously, poor man, he cannot dsprOve
the possession. OF course he hath n devill
Burn him. If he does not burn I'D at the stake
he is not possessed; for. clearly. what is not
cOmbustible has no place in the Internal regions
Suspicion was always justified, and extracted q
certain religious glow from the radiant flames.
when humanity, at the time of the Salem witch
prosecutions exhibited its habitual attitude
toward accusations not susceptible of dispr0of.
With the passing Of the ages we change our
superstltions and call it progress We have
got away from tho prejudices of our ancestors

Our modern fear is finance our modern
witches are trusts. In the multiplicity Of trusts
those who possess none themselves have q pro.

keen, torch in hand; disproof may be useful for
an epitaph. for the Peepul are ready to burn
him at the polls. At least that is always the
hope and confident expectation of the accuser

fact that thousands of homes now possess luxu-
rles which were out of the question at the
earlier date and which do not figure in statis-
tics OF the necessaries of life. But 1t is possi-
BILE to find something that shows in no uncer-
tain manner the net balance between prices and
wages. even after numerous new luxuries have
been paid for out of incomes that formerly

So, ,4S2, ,137.19S, or about so per cent On the
usual basis of five persons to each family, this

uas nor for the increase in resources Of national

New-York tribune., 1906-11-02
WAGES. PRICES AND SAVINGS.

Misrepresentation of the significance of sta
tistics is one of the simplest methods adopted
In political controversy. 1t is especially easy
to compare different sets of figures TO the dis
credit of either, according to the position it is
desired TO establish. Opponents of the admin
istration assert that the people as a whole
have not prolited 10y the recent long continued
period of prosperity, because the advance in
wages has not kept pace with the rise in prices
Confronted 10y elaborate statistics showing an
average increase of about 20 per cent in the
rate Of wages throughout the leading indus
tries during the last ten years. these expcrt
analysts present another record of commodity
prices in which there appears an advance of
20 per cent during the same period These
two statements are taken as conclusive evi-
dence that the people are actually less pros
porous than they were a decade ago under
Democratic rule.
AS most voters have short memories If is
not sufficient to remind them of the dark DAYS
through which they passed in 1S93-'97 but
the distortion of statistical records can be
demonstrated. In the first place, the periods
compared are not identical. the comparison of
prices being made with almost the lowest point
on record, While the fgJses of wages cover
an average for a year against another annual
average about a decade later But this is
much less important than the fact that at the
tdii4tl hdte al ldi'ee percentage OF the wage
carners had no work. 4 prominent labor leader
at that time estimated the army of UNEMPLOYED
at three million. Here is the vital factor that
is not embraced by the 20 per cent increase In
wages. OF what help was il to starving
man and his family that the rate of wages ten
years ago was 81 a day, let US say, If he had
no work: IN other words. those who were so
fortunate as 10 be employed at that time had
10 support idle fathers brothers or other rela-
rves. and the low cost Of living had no at
traction 10 the man who had to feed MANY
mouths besides those OF his immediate family
Statistics do not take into account the increase
in total amount distributed as wages which
would be much more significant than the rise
In rate. Or, 10 put il differently what is the
percentage Of advance in wages Of a man who
was earning nothing ten years ago and now
has constant employment at 81 30 or So day?
ThAt is the real measure of prosperity In
stead OF soI}p houses we now have a condition
.n which tho supply OF labor is utterly made
enate. Does this convey more meaning than
misrepresentation Of statistics which in them
neives are accuratsf

THE JEWISH VOTE.

Thousands of Jews in New York and else
where will applaud the sentiment uttered by
Joseph Beihilf in his address to the voters of
the East Side on Wednesday evening So much
had been said about the Jewish vote and so
much had been done to secure it that in justice
to an Intelligent factor in the community some
utterance of the kind was necessary to remove
a false impression. In the course of his re-
marks the speaker said:
am proud of my Jewish ancestry, but I am
prouder still Of the fact that American.
I intend to speak to you not as one Jew to
another Jew, but American to another
American. The Jew has nation. When he
adopted America his home he also adopted
1T as his nation. 1 have no sympathy or pa
tience with fellow members of my race or Gen.
tiles like Hearst who appeal to the Jew as a
Jew.
The speaker believes, as do most persons who
know the Jewish people, that there is no such
thing as Jewish vote" and that it cannot
re created any more than can Presbyterian,
Roman Catholic or an agnostic vote. 'The
Jewish vote" said a writer in a recent publica
tion "exists only in the minds of the unin-
formed, and the falacious impression is en-
"couraged by the professional Jew, who makes
every effort to delude party leaders into the
belief that he can deliver the vote"
1t has been said that about onetenth of the
voting population of New York consists of Jews.
and it is natural that strenuous efforts should
be put forth to influence this large body. I'm
scrupulous men profit by a msconception, and,
having nothing in mind but their own gain, they
dangle before the eyes of the political leaders
the vote which they would have them believe
can be delivered for consideration. But the
Jews think for themselves; they know their
duties as American citizens, and they cannot be
herded and delivered. even by fattery or such
smart campaign tricks as those which would
convert q business enterprise into great act of
philanthropy and change the name of Hearst
to Hirsch.
The reports which come from the thickly pop
ulated districts, where the majority of voters
are Jews indicate that the Republican ticket
will lead by great majority" at the coming
election, but the voters will not cast their bal
lots as Jews, but as citizens of the common
wealth. In view of all that has been said about
the Jewish vote, it Is refreshing to quote the
Jewish speaker who declared: "At the polls
men are not Jews, Christians, infidels or ag-
"nostics, but American citizens, and those who
exercise the sacred function of voting in any
"other spirit are unworthy of citizenship"
