4 DESIRABLE POLE.

The Star spangled Banner may not fly from the North Pole this year or next. Peary has been obliged to post pone his start until next year because the boilers for the Roosevelt are not ready, and hot air cannot be depended on for motive power. Weilman has, it is announced, inflated the balloon in which he is going to start for the Pole, but he has not started yet If he does start he may not go far. And he may not come back to report If he goes So all is doubt and uncertainty. Mean while the temperature prevalent in this part of the rolling world Is such that the North Pole seems almost as pleas ing and desirable as the old-fashioned highlyheated hell is said to seem to the cold Esqulmaux, Let us continue to hope that our adventurers will suc- ceed in annexing it before anybody else does

THOSE UNHEALTHY REA c1roNs.

Another unhealthy reaction" in Wall street yesterday, and more losses and Encouragement How different from those golden and glowing days when the financial tide was coming In, when almost everybody discovered that he had the Midas touch and when the tip- sters dropped into poetry and said there was mot a cloud in the financial sky" Now that sky is full of clouds, and though they may be silver lined ehey are not gold-plated, and the sil- ver lining isn't in plain sight, Wall street is the darkest and most over- shadowed spot in the country, and as it has a habit of overriding things 1t is probable that it Is darker and more overshadowed than 1t really ought to be. But there is no reasoning with Wall street, and occasionally there is no reason in it. Some experts say this is one of the occasions. If 1t is 1t will soon be over and there will be quiet opportunity to look at the remains. Un- til then frenzied finance, foolish legis- lation, painful paternalism and the short sight of men will continue to have their reward.
