SAY LEWISTON Is
TO KEEP SALOONS.
Declare That Dry Town Would Be
Death KneII to Business.


LEWISTON. Idaho. Sept. H.
Since Boise has checked the local OPP
ton tidal wave and defeated the pro-
hibition forces in one of the hardest
fought campaigns ever conducted in
the northwest, the local liquor inter
ests feel considerably encouraged
over the situation. and 1t Is believed
that the lines here will be darwin sim
liar to the Boise issue. Local men.
who claim to know how the fight was
conducted In Boise, say that the
liquor forces won by fighting the is
sue with ammunition to show that
business would be demorafiEed
should the county go dry.
The vets won a signal victory in
the city fight last fall because the
business me npractically conducted
the fight and because the city admin
Istratlon was back Of the liquor men
Mayor Henry Heitfeld coming out In
signed statement advocating the
cause OF the liquor forces.
Although it is generally admitted
that the country vote will be cap
tured by the prohibition forces. 1t Is
believed by the liquor men that the
city wet majority will overcome the
country dry vote.
1t is quite probable that the bust
ness men will again throw their In
fuenee with the vets. and the CHIEF
argument advanced will be that
business will be demoralized in Lew
iston II the saloons are closed. To
close the saloons will be to yacate $
score OF buildings and deprive the
city OF a considerable income. The
saloons of Lewiston pay an annual
license which is approximately go,

probably support the liquor forces
as ali Of them have editorially com
mented on the question. fayOring th'

PEARY HAS
STRAIGHT STORY
Is Clean Cut and Devoid OF Any
Thrills

SYDNEY, n, S. W., Sept. lin
the general opinion Peary's state
ment Is elean-cut narrative aud de-
void OF thrills and claptrap. and
seems a right and true one, The
question arising as TO who was the
first explorer to reach the north pole
can best be answered and become
correct when the true facts In the
case are settled, and until then there
no room for controversy. Personally
speaking for the Arctic club. they
want to say that they are In constant
communication with DR.. Cook and
that he Is DESTROYS OF having no con.
troversy whatever. As yet there Is
no correct statement made public
regarding the discovery of the pole
by Cook, but 1t Ii generally conceded
that Peary win set the standard In
the world In the matter OF proof OF
his achievement, and he seems TO be
anxious to Insist that DIR. Cook pre-
sent effectual. valid proof forthwith.
but Cook replies that this win come
In time.
Possible With Two Conditions.
NEW YORK. Sept. ll.--Com.
mander Peary's success In reaching
the north pole was possible through
the combination OF his own equip
ment and his own men. without Ice
conditions being just right the at-
tempt to get through would have
proved failure. PeAry's account OF
his trip, and from all other accounts.
Is record-breaker over all other at.
tempts made by any one. but IL is
certain that he Is the discoyerer with
out any doubt,
DIR. Cook Sailed Today.
Dir. Cook sailed today from Chris
tiansland on board the liner Oscar II
for New York. Probably Capt. Ron.
aid Amundson will accompany him.
DIR. Cook has abandoned his proposed
trip to Brussels on the advice OF
friends.
DR. Cook today asked officials OF
the Greenland administration TO ar
range for the dispatch of one OF their
boats TO bring back the two Esklmor
who accompanied him TO the pole.
Officials say II Is now too late for
such an expedition and advised that
he wait until spring.
The Copenhagen papers are full OF
the Peary-cook controversy. Almost
all support Or. Cooks claims, bur
they throw no light on the subject
DR.. Edward Bay, geologist OF the
Syerdrup expedition In ls9a-i902. TO.
day held a long Interview with DR.
Cook, after which he said that while
at first he doubted DIT. Cooks story
he is now certain OF its truth so IA
as the route is concerned. as Or. Cook
described accurately the places and
things that no other white man bui
Bay had ever seen. Bay asserted
that the Danes In Greenland were un.
friendly TO Peary because they be
lleyed he treated the Eskimos badl,
and forced them to work for him.
The University Copenhagen toda,
conferred upon Dr. Cook the honor
airy degree OF doctor OF science !,

sand persons. who eheered the ex
plorer heartily In thanking Director
Torp, DIR. Cook said that the univer
slty should be the first to see hi

company on the waterfront, north
of Old Town, was burned to the

When the fire department had

stunned such proportions that Chief
McAlvey directed his men to saw

Of cut lumber rather than waste
their energy on the main fire.
AS far as can be learned the
fire originated near the band re-
