Hard To Beat.

In conversation recently with ]. b.
johnson who owns farm in this county
he informed us that last year 4,OOC
bushels of corn was grown on his farm
and one man did all of the work in con-
nection of the same in addition to other
farm work done by him.
Some of the farmers in the corn
states seem to think that we do not
raise corn in Colorado but the Illinois
or Iowa farmer who can show n better
record on corn raising than the above
will have to get up pretty early in the
morning. Yes, Phillips county does not
take a very far back seat even on corr
raising question and she sits in the
front row all of the time when it comes
to small grain.

A newspaper can never very credita-
bly, represent town whose business
men do rot advertise. He may howl
himself hoarse Dragging about the vim
and energy and enterprise of his town,
but If his declarations are not backed
up by liberal amount of advertising
by the business men of the town. the
world will be slow to take his state
ments as true. 1t takes more than the
unsupported testimony of the local
newspaper man to prove to the world
that his town is the financial center.
the business center, the best ms rxet,
and the best place on earth to buy
goods; his evidence needs confederation.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF PHILLIPS COUNT,
Sedgwlck Booze Vender.

Last Thursday noon Judge Burke re-
sponded to an urgent request from the
district attorneys office to make a trip
toJulesburg. AS there was not time
to reach the regular court reporter, Mr..
C.qF. Silver accompanied him in that
capacity. 1t appeared that the cause
OF the commotion was the arrest of one
George Ray, who says he was formerly
employed by the Sterling Sugar Com
pany and who for several months past
has been located at Sedgwick. Twenty
one cases had been filed against Ray,
eash charging him with the illegal sale
of intoxicating liquor. The district
cotrt was opened at Julesburg in the
afternoon and Ray entered plea of
guilty in each case. A. F. Perrier, his
attorney, moved for suspension of
sentence on all but four of the cases
until the first day of the next regular
term, entering, in open court, the de-
PENDANTS leave to have sentence pro
nounced, however, at any time, prior
to that date, when In the opinion of the
district judge the circumstances neces-
STATED it. Sentence in those cases was
accordingly suspended upon the pay
ment by the defendant of all the costs
in all the cases In each of the four
remaining cases the defendant was fined
sl25 and remanded to Jail until fine and
costs were paid. The fines and costs
amounted to between eleven and twelve
HUNDRED dollars. It is understood that
N, defendant could, within few days,
raise the money to discharge fhe judg-
ments. The suspended sentences ought
20 be a remarkable incentive to the de-
fendant to avoid the business in the
future, and the citizens of Sedgwick
county hope that the results Of the ac-
ton will have good effect upon other
persons who may be disposed to violate
the liquor law in Sedgwick county. Vi
olaters in other localities ought to take
the hint. This Illicit traffic is not con-
ducive either to the health or financial
prosperity of those engaged in it in this
section OF Colorado. Sterling Republi-
can Advocate.

TIMES FAILS TO ENJoIN.
New York Newspaper Handling Peary's
Copyrighted Story Loses in eourt

New York Newspaper Handling Peary's
Copyrighted Story Loses in Court.
New York, Sept. 11.-Judge Hand, in
the United States circuit court settled
a novel legal controversy bearing on
Commander Robert E. Peary's discov-
cry OF the north pole, in favor of the
New York Sun and the New York
World. defendants in proceedings
brought by the New York. Times.
Yesterday the Times obtained a
temporary injunction restraining the
Sun and World from printing any of
Peary's cabled account of his discov-
cry, which he had agreed to furnish
exclusively to the Times, but the
court held today that the Times copy-
right was not legally hole proof and
dlssoived the restraining order. The
sun and World on Thursday obtained
by way Of London, where it appeared
in the London Times, by agreement
with the New York Times, a, verbatim
account of Peary's brief resume of his
discovery and printed it here. Inn
medlately the Times took legal steps to
stop this, but has failed in so far as
Judge Hands decision goes.
A copy of Peary's contract. which
was submitted to the court. set forth
that the explorer received $4,000 from
the newspaper to be considered as a
loan, Which was to be paid out of the
proceeds of the Times syndicate ac-
counts OF his discovery. Failing to
reach the pole, he was to refund the
full amount.

Word to Navy Department.

Washington, Sept. 1l.-Peary's first
official notification to the navv depart
ment direct of his return and discov-
cry Of the pole came to the department.
this morning in the following sent by
him from Battle Harbor yesterday:
'Respectfully report my return:
hoisted navy ensign on north pole
April g." PEARY"
Acting Secretary Of the Navy Win
throp promptly sent Peary a dispatch
on behalf Of the navy department ex-
tending hearty congratulations on
Pearys successful attempt to reach the
pole. Winthrop voiced the sentiments
OF the naval officials when he said the
navy department. naturally was very
much gratified that Civil Engineer
Peary, who is an officer in the civil
engineer corps of the naval establish
ment, had succeeded after many at
tempts in reaching the pole. The COM
mander Is now on leave Of absense
from the navy, but Is detailed to duty
with the coast and geodetic survey
making 'tidal observations on the
coast Of Grantland and Greenland"
Some little comment and no Mttle
amusement was created in the navy
department when Peary's dispatch
came this morning saying he had hoist
ed the navy ensign on the pole. Tn
like number OF foreign countries, the
American navy has no ensign, but the
flag that flies over the vessels of the
navy Is the same that floats to the
breeze over the White House at Wash
ington. There Is navy pennant, but
this is used to designate ships in COM
mission under certain circumstances.

Both men are playing remarkable golf

PEARy GOT COOKS SUPPLIES.
Charge Reiterated That Rivals Store

Charge Reiterated That Rivals Stores
Were Raided-Was 1t Mistake?
st. Johns, N. F., Sept. 11.-Captain
Moses Bartlett, who commanded Cook S
schooner. the Bradley, in 1907, said
Cook is correct in stating Peary
took his provisions after the steamer
ERIK returned to Brigus last fall. Three
OF her crew told me that when Peary
arrived at Etah he took all the stores
left there the previous fall for Cook,
against his return from the north The
supply consisted Of two dory loads of
stores, food and kerosene, which our
crew piled on the beach, then placed
the dories over them, bottom up, piling
stones around and over them. AT An
natook, thirty miles north, where Cook
landed previously, we put ashore a two
years supply for Cook and five tons of
hard coal. When Cook landed we gave
him half the coal and stores except
what we required to bring us home.
TCook couldn't steal Peary's provisions
because Peary had none on the coast,
'having used up all the provisions left
there by previous expeditions in his
1905-1906 trip"
Richard Pike, chief engineer of the
steamer Erik which last year ccnyeyed
stores and coal to Etah to supplement
those on the Roosevelt, said: "Peary
left two men on the Roosevelt and
with an immense accumulation of sup
plies, he left Etah when the Roosevelt
went north, and the Erik came south.
These men apparently by mistake took
some of Cooks stores that had also
reached there"
Another member of the Erik's crew
said Cooks assistant, Francke, gave
the stores in part payment for his pas
sage from Etah to the United States.

FRENCH PRESS ATTACKS PEARv.
Believe Latter's Story Strengthens
Cooks Claims.

Paris Sept. 1.-THE first INSTALL
ment at Commander Peary's recital of
his exped36aqn to the north pole was
published yesterday. and had an enor-
NOUS sale.
As notice was giyen that the article
was copyrighted, the other newspa pers
handed 1t with care, but in their com
ment there IL noticeable a disposition
to criticize. This perhaps is due to the
fact that Commander Peary's reflec-
tions upon DIR. Cook are considered
ungenerous.
The Temps Is especially caustic and
Expresses the opinion that the first part
aos Pearyss recital is really favorable
10 DR.. Cook.
1t says that PearYs story Is obscure
and even Inconsistent, pointinE out
particularly that whereas his diary up
70 March Is Is scrupulously precise
thereafter v shows a hiatus and the
datea are ohscured and confusing. For
instshee, whep the story stops Captain
Bartlett had been sent back.
The expedition then was in eighty
seven degrees and forty-eighth min
utes and @tall far from the POLE" the
Temps says
Peary now proceeds alone and what
ever suspicion was raised against DR.
Cook is equally applicable to him.
Peary's recital up to the present time
has offered nothing more worthy Of
credence than Cok's. II 1t is true as af-
hrmed. that polar obsession creates a
sort OF madness, any hypothesis, even
the most unfavoraIble, is permissible
against both explorers"
The Figaro says: Nothing Is moro
painful than the spectacle of this quar-
rel on the threshold Of glory. 1t en-
harnesses the sympathy which nat
urally goes out to these two great
men,.
Returning to- civilization, they en-
counter Jealousy. envy, calumny, ig-
noble pickering, and hatred Of sue
cess; they become the prey of parlor
explorers and savants. who raise OBJ
jsetaons whsrs they rasled their lives.

Their Calvary is not ended. Their at
hrmations will be discussed and
weighed by societies and savants with
a keen desire to find them wrong and
convict them OF falsehood."
The Illustration prints q full page
picture Of DR.. Cook entitled Hero or
lmpostor?" The Illustration says 1t
onered to publish reproduction of a
page Of DR.. Cooks diary, and notes of
his observations on April 81, 1908, the
day when he arrived at the pole, but
that DIR. Cook declined the offer, say
ing that the documents were on their
way to the United States.
