'KITTREDGE Will help


Since hearing the lecture Of the
noted explorer, Captain Amundsen.
there has been aroused good deal
of interest IN his staunch little craft.
the Gjoa. with which he made the run
of the northwest passage. The Gjoa
ii the first and only vessel to pass
around the north coast Of North
America, thus finding the Northwest
passage, for which search has been
made for the last four hundred years
She now lies In Mare Island Navy
yard, and II the plan set on foot in
this city materiaIizes, she will never
leave the custody Of the United States
government
Many Americans believe that the
boat which made such gallant trip
through hitherto unexplored Ameri-
can waters, should forever remain In
this country and should be preserved
among the valuable historical collec-
tions OF this government The plan
Is to have congress appropriate q sum
for the purchase OF the vessel from
Captain Amundsen and when the Pam
anna canal ID completed bring 1t
around TO washington 70 De preServeQ
and placed on exhibition Is an inspif-
ing sight and an example OF the In
trepid hardihood, that made the voy-
age 81 the little craft and her brave
COMMANDER md crew possible.
On his return to Washington It Is
expected that Senator Kittredge will
Introduce bill In the senate for this
purpose and It II hoped that the plan
Will be successful. Besides the inter
cet which all Americans must feel In
the GjOa. the large number Of Nor
wegians who have been adopted into
the United States would be particular
w grattiied to have the vessel remain
here permanently,

such good record IN his position and
was Of such value to the incoming In
surgent commissioner, that he was al
lowed TO retain the position for some

Up to ten days ago the insurgent
leaders were loudly telling how they
were going to control the April con-
vention at Huron. and about how
important to the fight in June would
be the control OF that convention. As
county after county has slipped
away from them, they have become
thoroughly alarmed, and are now
hedging. They say that the control
Ct the April convention doesn't
amount 70 much after all. Still, they
were 30 anxious to get it that they
raped the primary in four counties
to ret the vote from those counties

have done II they had considered the
matter unimportant.

insurgents have but Al H. 1t has
been agreed to divide the vote OF
Sphinx county which will make the
score stand: stalwarts 165 IL: in
surgents, as IL. There are 4S9 votes
In the convention. and it takes 245
to control Thus the stalwarts have
to get so votes out OF the remainder
to control, while the insurgents must
get zoo. That the stalwarts will be
able to do this easily there is small
reason to doubt and the boast of Sem
at0r Gamble that the vote Of South
Dakota II 1t went to Taft would have
to be delivered by the insurgents
will not be made good.
In number Of counties which
were formerly insurgent the Craw-
ford people have made compromises
rather than fight which shows the
weakened condition Of the insurgent
cause.

Will some defender Of the Crawford
administration explain how the ap-
preparations made by the last legisla-
ture can be paid without q four mill
levy in 1908? This will make taxes
for 1908 as high as they are this
year and there will be no levy for
the twine plant either.

Mr.. Demmitt, the regular right gar
dener, earned his fee again yesterday.

Frill pitched an unusually classy
game. They nave a bunch of dangerous
hitters with them, just as Jack Dunn
says, but then we managed to string out

Well, the Orioles are here. They will
be on hand this afternoon and tomor-

over yesterdays defeat. He said this
morning that the Orioles would take the
next two games.
at know the Tigers are going at their
best just now said Dunn. 1--WE fear
no team but the Newark club, and it
looks as though the rest of the clubs
are worried just now over the showing
ofthe Bengals.
But. let me tell you that the Orioles
are playing even better ball than any
other club in the league, barring none.
Frill, who worked for the Tigers yes
terday, has had it on us all season,
though we captured a close game from
him one Sunday afternoon not so long
ago. Since that we have strengthened
our ranks.
