DIR. Cooks Claims Shattered

The University of Copenhagen,
the first institution of learning to
recognize DR.. Frederick H. Cook
as he 1I:l ~erer of the North
Pole, has in assembly declared
that the explorer had failed 70 es-
tablish the claim on which mis-
high honors had been based. The
report of the committee states that
Cooks papers were without any
value; that his report to the Uni
versity of Copenhagen IS practically
the same as that published in the
New York Herald on his return
from his Ardtic expedition. Copies
of his lnotebooks submitted, saws
the committee, contain no original
of observations, but
only the results thereof. Accord
ingly the committee concludes that
he affords no proof of having reach
ed the pole.

mo deal what ever is pending
for the purchase of the Idaho
Northern by the Oregon Short
Line is the unqualified statement
made by Z. H. Dewey to a Capital
News representative at Nampa.
Mr.. Dewey said: "You can say
for me in the Capital News that
no deal whatever is Pending tor
the purchase of the Idaho Northern
by the Oregon Short Line. He
was asked if it were not planned to
extend the Idaho Northern toward
the Payette Lakes from Emmett
and tap the rich timber country
beyound Emmett. Mr.. Dewey
would neither affirm nor deny this,
but said that up to the present
time there was not enough ton
mage in sight to justify the build
ing of railroad into the upper
country from Emmett. He AIDED
that while there is enough timber
beyond Emmett, no definite ar
have as yet been made
by the Weyerhauser syndicate,
which owns large bodies of this

The controversy grew out OF the
stallatiOn of the Emmett water
orks system by the Forbes COM
ny, contractors. The city odi-
rs refused to accept the pump
from the contractors because
was not water tight. The CITY,
ter failing to secure satisfac-
~ adjustment of the dispute,
constructed the pit and held up
final payment OF the contract
ice TO Forbes as pay for the re-
INSTRUCTION OF the pit. The new
pit cost the city $500. The iury
allowed the city 1915 for this 7.ork
and gave Forbes Judgment for
the balance Of S2005. Finley Mon
roe. city attorney and John Rice
represented the city and Smirh &
Scatterday were ATTORNEYS for the
company. The verdict is regard
ed as a win and lose proposition
Tor both parties, aud should
therefore be acceptable to ali con-
,erned.
