The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1909-09-08

Senator Stephens of Crookston, in
an address before teachers train
ing school in his home city, recently,
advanced the novel idea that the
state should pay parents of students
from II to Is years of age for the
time they spend attending school.
He took the position that it is a
benefit to the state to educate its
citizens and that some pay should
be given to parents in order to help
them keep their children in school,
Litchfeld Review.
The proposition advanced by Sen
ator Stephens is certainly a unique
one, but it is doubtful If 1t would
ever become a practical condition.
Even among the Indians at the two
Red Lake reservation schools, the
parents of the aborignees are glad
of the opportunity to have their
children secure an education.

up to the highest pitch of interest
since Sept. /, when Dr.. Cooks claim
to having reached the top of the
world was first telegraphed from the
Shetland islands.
Two explorers, Dr. Frederick A.
Cook and Commander Robert e.
Peary, both Americans, are in the
Arctic seeking the goal Of centuries,
the North pole, whose attainment has
at times seemed beyond the reach of
man. Both are determined and cour-
ageous and both leave expressing the
belief that their efforts will be
crowned with success. Peary is we'll
known to both scientists and the gen
oral public as a persistent striver for
the honors Of "farthest north" Dr.
Cook, on the other hand, has held the
public attention to a lesser degree
He made his departure quietly and his
purpose was hardly known other than
to those who are keenly interested in
polar research. Then, suddenly and
with no word Of warning, steamer
touches at Lerwick and DR.. Cooks
claim to having succeeded where ex
petition after expedition of the hardi
est explorers of the world had failed
Is made known. Three days later Dr.
Cook arrived at Copenhagen and was
given welcome to an explorer un.
precedented in history.
Five days after the receipt of the
Lerwick message, almost to the hour
comes the sensational statement from
Indian Harbor that Commander Peary
also has been successful on his third
expedition to the coveted goal.
One point Of supreme Importance in
Peary's report of his success is that
the statement must remain absolutely
nnchallenged, because Peary undoubt
edly is able to confirm his statements
by creditable white witnesses wht
made up the personnel of his party.

New York Sept. The following
dispatch has been received here from
Indian Harbor, via Cape Ray, N. F..
from Robert E. Peary:

pany of London.
This startling and laconic message,
flashed from the coast of Labrador to
New York and thence to the four
corners of the globe. at the moment
when DR.. Cook is being acclaimed by
the crowned heads of Europe and by
the world at large as the discoverer Of
the North pole, adds remarkable

PLEASING TO HIS FRIENDS
Report That Peary Had Reached the
North Pole,

Washington, Sept. 7.-''That dispatch
from Peary means that he has finally
achieved what he has so long been
AFTER" said Henry Gannett, an old
friend of Peary's and vice president
of the National Geographical society.
II am awfully glad that he has got,
ten to the North pole, whether he. was
the Arst to reach there or not. He
certainly worked hard enough to got
there. Such a dispatch from Peary
would signify only his own achieve
ment, even if Cook was there first. 1
always thought that Peary had the
best chance of all Of the men who
have gone out in the effort to reach
the North pole. He was fitted by long
experience and by his we'll known
high qualities. I repeat, am awfully
glad that Peary has reched the pole
: Peary is personally very popular
With the scientists in Washington and
a movement will be launched at once
to give him rousing reception when

Secretary Ballinger Calls on
President Taft.
CARRIES MANY DOCUMENTS

Arrives at Beverly With Several
satcheIs Full of Government Re-
ports Relating to the Subject Under
observation-disclosures His Depart
ment Has Nothing to Fear From
Closest Scrutiny.
Beverly, Mass, Sept. 7.-After
spending the forenoon in Boston Sec
rotary of the Interior Ballinger came
to Beverly to go over with President
Taft the situation that has developed
In the interior department during the
two months the secretary has been
absent in the West.
Mr.. Ballinger brought with him sew
eral satchels full of government docu-
ments. Among these were detailed
reports by Frank Pierce, assistant Sec
rotary of the interior; Fred bennett,
commissioner of the general land Of
fee, and Henry P. Schwartz, chief of
the field service in the land Office, re-
garding the Cunningham.A coal
land cases. These reports were called
for by President Taft about two
weeks ago and are in reply to state
ments said to have been made to the
president by Louis R. CLAWS, a spe-
cial agent in the land service, with
headquarters at Seattle.
Inference had been drawn from the
CLAWS statements that officials of the
interior department had been eager to
push the Cunningham claims to patent
without proper hearing. The land
claims amount to several millions of
dollars.
Secretary Ballinger, after he had
read the reports of Messrs. Pierce,
bennett and Schwartz in Washington
said:
''These reports justify the statement
that this department has nothing to
fear from the closest scrutiny of the
conduct of it's officials"
The forestry division of the agri.
cultural department has come in di-
rect conflict with the interior depart
ment. Moreover Chief Forester Pin
chot has publicly attacked some of the
acts of Secretary Bal]inger.

attention of its readers to the ruling

authorities to publish an account of

where prizes are offered, or a guess

NO EVIDENCE AGAINST HIM
Naval Officer Says 1t Is Not Fair to
Doubt Cooks Word.

OOUUI NOON VvCIOs
Washington, Sept TT is not fair
to doubt DR.. Cooks word in the alb.
sence of any evidence whatever
against him.
This statement was made by Cap
tain A. G. Winterhalter of the navy,
chief of the photographic Office here,
in speaking of the doubt that had
been expressed in some quarters as to
whether DR.. Cook actually had
reached the North pole. mot one
time in a hundred thousand" he said,
would Dr. Cook be able successfully
to fake astronomical observations. I
have had much experience in making
observations and compilations from
them and I speak from my own
knowledge in such matters. Fake OBJ
servat1ons from day to day could not
possibly be continued for any length
of time without detection and why not
wait until access is had to DR.. Cooks
records and books? These, in my
opinion, will clear up every question
as to his actually having reached the
pole. If they do not it will then be
quite time enough to cast aspersion
upon him."

Says Latter Was Welt Equipped for
Reaching Pole.
Philadelphia, Sept Admiral Mel
Vile, when informed of the text Of
the Associated Press dispatch from
lieutenant Peary, said: IF Peary
has telegraphed the Associated Press
that he has found the pole believe it
and say bully for him."
Good for Peary," continued the adj
miral, as smile crossed his face.
II have known Peary personally for a
long time and as he 2Kas well equip.
ped for an expedition l think he had
at least as much chance as DR.. Cook
had for discovering the pole. Peary
was within 200 miles of the pole in
his last expedition and was prevented
from going there by the opening Of
the ice packs He has been gone long
enough to have reached there. .s4
ut was the crazy dispatches pur-
porting to have come from DR.. Cook
about the conditions he found there
and other things that caused doubt
in my mind about Cook having found
the pole. The later dispatches are
more sane and are more favorable to
DR.. Cock"
