WAS PREMEDITATED.


In a letter left behind him by
Commander Psary when he went
north in 1898, and which has now
been published, he betrays his
animus against DR.. Cook, who had
preceded him to Greenland by six
or seyea mouths. This document
gives expression to Peary's resent
mcnt that any other explorer should
have dared to eater what he regards
as his private preserves. He speaks
of the nomads of Smith SQUAD as
''my Eskimo's" and of the wolfish
creatures used by them to draw
their sleds as ''my dogs" DR..
Cook gets a verbal lashing tor
''draining the resources" of that
inhespitable region in men, dogs
and game, call of which," says
Peary in this letter, ~ will need" !"
Commander Peary takes credit for
having trained the natives in "ser
Gus Artic sledge work." as if these
people. who have followed this
mode of transportation fer unwonted
generations, had anything to learn
about it from a casual visitor; or as
if they had gained their "intimate
knowledge of routes under my
(Peary's) lead and guidance" in
stead of IN their long and arduous
struggle for exlstencel
The vanity Of these assumptions
lis almost superb. Naturally enough
any one filled with the conceit that
the far north, and all that is therein,
lis his property would be inclined to
regard the earth's apex a "my
Pole" and would consider .another's
claim to prior discovery thereof as an
act of expropriatton. And, natural
ly, also, he would be inclined to
belittle the other's achievements,
In fact, this letter shows that Peary
went north with the deliberate pur
pose of "nalling" Cook as we'll as
of "nailing the flag to the pole, !"
The Polar expedition was to be a
one-part plays and Commander
Peary mast be left unrivaled as the
"head- liner" of the show. One
might expect such jealousy on the
vaudeville stage, but among ex-
plorers and men claiming to be in
the service OF pure science one
should expect "a more generous
spirit. Of course, the display of
bad temper on Peary's part does
not establish Cooks claims; neither
does 1t invalldEte those OF Peary.
1t does dispose one, however, to
accord to Cook the generous treat
ment which his rival and the latter'S
adhereats refuse him.-FCom the
Philadelphia Record.

THE DAY or THE FARMER.

Truly, these be the days when
the farmer has his innings. Always
the foundation stone of the
country's Prosperity, he has borne
the burdens of hard and monotonous
toll on his broad and sturdy back.
Bu, now he is coming into his own.
Once the man with the hoe, he is
now the man of the automobile.
Good prices for his products have
put him where he belongs. The
comforts and luxuiies of modern
civilization are his. His labors
lightened by steam threshers,
spring seated plows and cultivators'
he enjoys also the blessings OF the
telephone, rural free delivery and
swift motor cars which keep him in
familiar touch with the markets,
the worlds passing show and all the
doinrs of Eis fellowmen. Best Of
all, his broad acres are yearly IN
crea asing in value and his cattle are
being bred in the pure blood that
brings fatnes' to tie ribs and SIZE
and heft to the carcass.
This humble tribute to the
farmer is induced by chant CT
praise and jubilatien that emanates
"Uncle Jimmy" Wilson who pre-
sides over the department OF
agriculture at Washington. In the
first Instance, Uncle Jimmie tells
us that during the past twelve years,
covering his term of office, the
farmers have Increased the agricul-
tural balance of trade for the
United States from a yearly aver
age of $2s4, zoo, 900 to SAT-, 200,
900, a gain of .75.7 per cent'
Furthermore this wonderful develop
ment OF the earth's wealth is reject
ed in the progress that has been
made along all lines of agricultural
activity. Farm wages Rave more
than kept pace with prices fot farm
products. In fact, the average
farm hand fares better in this re-
spect thea the workers in mannfac-
tures and urban industries, There
has beea a great improvement IN
farm methods, in diversifeation ct
crops, in scientific cultivation and
conservation of fertility of soil.
Production from virgin soils has de-
creased. but the country has witnessed
a great increase in production, due
to better methods. The yield of
cotton per acre increased from d7a
pounds in the ten years ending with
1896 TO IeI pounds in the average
of the following ten years. In corn
per acre, Ohio shows gaia of II IS
per cent, Virginia, 1872 per cent
and other states in like proportion.
Oats have increased I7.o per cent,
wheat from I6-2 per cent in New
York to 45,9 per cent in Nebraska.
In some lines this increase in farm
production began twenty years ago,
but it has grown in leaps and bounds
in the last decade. Above all, the
undesirable features of farm life
are rapidly disappearing. AS
Secretary Wisoa sums up the case=
"The farmer, in results of lhforma-
ton, intelligence and industry, has
thrived nightly. The progress
that has been made is in the direc-
tion leading to popular and national
welfare, to the suStenance OF any
future population, as well as to a
larger efficiency of the farmer in
m2tteIs of wealth production and
saving, and in establishing himself
and his family in more pleasant
ways of living" kansas City

PROHIBITION IN TENNE SSEE

n ponce Judge In NASHVILLE,
Tennessee, reports that in one day
recently he had more drunks before
him than any day during his years
of service. From this statement
the Globe-Democrat of St. Louis,
the home of the brewer, would have
US conclude thar prohibition is a
failure.
The conclusion does not follow
and the great progress that has been
made by prohibition in this country
in the last few years is bound to
proceed.
That the liquor traffic is very
difficult matter to control in the
larger critics, has been demonstrated
in every state that has d it.
Every crime known to the
criminal code fourishes better in
certain localities where conditions
| are favorable than in others.
During the territorial days n
| Oklahoma on account of the rough
and uninhabited portions of thai
country and the uncrganized con-
dition of society, horse stealing
flourished as in no other part of tht
country and became almost one OF
the reco,..lsd industries of the
locality.
Yet there were strenuous laws
against the practice and they were
we'll enforced over the country.
Because they were not enforced
ia this locality 1t does not follow
that these laws were unjust er
incapable of reasonable enforce
nent. Since that country has been
settled up and brought under
organized government and the re-
svaining influence of civilization,
horse stealing is now looked upt n
as crime and prosecuted according
Iy instead of being classed as 3
4 gentleman's occupation.
4 So will it be with the crime Of
5,selling whisKey in the cities after a
!lfew years of faithful effort at law
enforcement.
4 The Globe likewise touches on
the great injustice done the brewer
who has such a vast amount of
money invested in the busiaess,
much of which will be lost.
So it was in oklahoma. Many of
these horse aad cattle thieves had
extensive ranches and expensive
improvements which they were
compelled to sacrifice before the
advance of civilization. We do
not look upon the sacrifice of their
ill gotten gains as any unjust hard
ship.
There is greater crime in the
land than that of horse stealing or
stamped,ng cattle.
The brewer must get much of his
gain from the hard earned dimes
and nickels Of the laboring man.
Dimes and nickels that should go
toward furnishing bread and other
necessities to his wife and children.
The innocent and helpless women
and children are robbed of their
living that these wealthy brewers
may reside in 6ne mansions, their
wives and daughters shins in costly
Jewels and take expensive European
trips. Their vile ooncoetions not
only rob their victims of worldly
goods, but steal the reason and
debauch and debase character and
make Of the respectable citizen a
criminal and a purderer.
Should then, there be any hesita
uon about the enforcement of
prohibition because of injury to
the property of the brewer and
distillef2 Their property is devoted
to the destruction and tearing down
of society and morality and the
support of dens of infamy and
crime.

bunch of ladies' from a handsomely
decorated table. Miss Lena Hopkins,
the chairman of the decorating COM
mittee, received many compliments
on her artistic wall decorations, flags

An unique diversion was created in
the table decorations; at the sugges.
ton of Mrs. VIM. Ashford a pyramid
of fruit was arranged under the
magic fingers of Mrs. James E. Smith
and the effect was very beautiful.
Palms and cut flowers were also used
in profusion and together with the
handsome gowns worn by the ladies
the scene was one of beauty and one
that will long remain in the minds
