usual DRINKS are no longer in evil
dence.
Such conditions warrant a re-
duction of the police force, and we
understand that such an action is
now. being considered by the City
Council. Suggestions have been
advanced by leading citizens as to
the ACCESSIBILITY of cutting down
the day force from four to two
policemen. This number, with an
active cooperation upon the part
of the Chief of Police, is deemed
sufficient to meet all requirements
under the existing order of things.
But those who are in close touch
with police at night are of the
opinion that the same number of
night police will be required for
|
protection from the night providers
for the purpose of robbery and
other crimes. Night Lieutenant
Frank is vigilant officer, and
through his faithful, efficient CO.
operative service, the cutting down
of one night policeman would not
be considered hazardous.
Regarding the salary of City
Collector, we are free to admit
that there is room for reduction.
The Board of Equalization recon-
mended reduction in expense to
meet the so-called deficit created
by local option. They suggested
that the City Collectors salary
might be so arranged as to incur a
saving to the city of at least 81 500
per year. This item alone will 60

NATIONAL CAPITAL
r JOICES OVER FEAT

Washington. Sept. 6.-"Should an
American first OF all place the Stars
and Stripes at that coveted spot.
there is not an American citizen at
home or abroad but what would feel
little better and a little prouder
OF being an American"
Commander Robert T. Peary almost
three years ago thus prophetlcally
outlined his View OF the value and
interest attached to the achievement
he announced in dispatches today
The news OF Peary's feat following
close upon that OF DR.. Cooks planting
OF the American flag at the same spot,
evoked enthusiastic plaudits in Wash
ington.
Such wonderful achievements as
this make epochs in the history OF the
world. declared Captain Vedeyer In
charge OF the United States naval
observatory.
"Peary adds still another name to
the long list of American heroes" said
Prof. Asaph Pail of the observatory.
Energy he has displayed, his persis-
tence and the intelligence he has
brought to bear on this great prob.
lem are worthy of all commendation.'
Those persons who had associated
with Peary here spoke of him today
as q man of wonderful capacity for
doing things and they instantly ac-
cepted the statement that he had dis
covered the pole.
Courses Are Similar.
The courses taken by Commander
Peary and by DR. Cook did not differ
very materially. according to Prof
Henry Gannett. the geographer.
ut seemed to me that Peary was
being delayed when he left a year
or so ago" said Prof Gannett.
''Peary's plan was TO get up to the
northwestern cape of Grantland. where
he made his former headquarters be.

previously to the vicinity OF Lady

Tnnd except for the stories about his
being pursued by polar bears and
muskox and what he had to say about
the floating ice. ! never heard of a
polar bear attacking a man except IN
self defense. Polar bears arc about as
dangerous as the ordinary black bear
Of this part OF the world. The muskox
is a harmless animal The floating ice
story struck me asia funny yarn to
tell
IF DR.. Cook did reach the pole and
left a cylinder there. it certainly Is
not there now. From all accounts
have ever Yeen the Ice is certainly
moving. Everybody who has been in
that region has found that drift.
Means Of Determining.
"An explorer can determine the lat
itude bv a zenith telescope-the most
accurate means-and by a sextant. DR..
Cook did not have a zenith telescope,
as that is too heavy an instrument He
carried a seXtant.
You can tell you are at the pole
by seeing the stars or the sun circling
al the same distance above the harI-
zon. The sun comes above the horizon
on the twentieth of March and goes
around and around in a spiral until
the twentieth or the twenty-second OF
June. when 1t reaches It's highest
point Then the sun goes lower and
lower until the twentieth Of Septem-
Der and sinks out of sight

his papers 10 the states don't un-
derstand why he should send his rec.
ords to the states and himself 90 TO

not conceive OF the possibility of any

vile, when informed of the text of the
Associated Press dispatch from Lieut.,
Peary. said.
IF Peary has telegraphed the Asso-

him
Good for Peary." continued the ad.
miral as a smile crossed his face II
have known Peary personally for a
long time and as he was we'll equipped

least as much chance as DR.. Cook
had for discovering the pole. Peary
was within 200 miles of the pole In
the 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
It was the crazy dispatches pu7
porting TO have come from DR.. Cook
about the conditions he found there
and other things that caused q doubt
in nv mind about Cook having found
the pole The dispatches of yesterday
and today are more sane and are more
favorable to DR.. Cook. The develop
ments of the last few days and the
Associated Press dispatches from
Peary make the situation most inter
esting."
DR.. Henry Skinner one of the
founders of the Geographic Society
OF Philadelphia and an officer of the
Pennsylvania Academy of Natural Sci
once, said that the Peary dispatch in
dlcates that Peary himself had reach
cd the pole and placed the flag there
BY the time Peary reached there
every vestige of the flag left by Dr.
Cook would have disappeared, Dr.,
Skinner said that It was wonderful
that two American explorers should
have reported the discovery of the
pole almost simultaneously and that
he firmly believed bothareached there.

In Foremost Rank.
Commander Peary has stood in the
foremost ranks OF Arctic explorers for
nearly two decades. He was born at
Carson Springs, Pa. in May, 1856
He entered the navy in 1881.
His first polar experience was ac-
quircd in 1886. when he made recon
naissaDce of the Greenland inland ice
In June 1891 he sailed from New York
on the Kite and making his headQuar-
ters at Mccormick Bay on the west
coast of Greenland, penetrated as far
north as latitude 50 In lS9S.99 he
went to a point between the 18th and

The commander. on his present eX-

taken three years ago. which lay in
almost a straight line from Cape
Moss, and the supposed northernmost

When the ice finally allowed him TO
proceed, heavy gales sprang up. which
forced him 10 abandon the greater
part of his provisions.
He then found comparatively
smooth travelling until he reached lati-

encountered a terrific storm which

the Arctic seas was undoubtedly his

However. the work was continued.
Moro funds were forthcoming when
needed and his last and successful eX-

those which preceded It,
Some Of Peary's friends believe he
will soon pine for new worlds to con-

may be anticipated. In fact. Il was
announced more than year ago that
Peary had planned national Ameri-

the South Polar regions.
Mrs Peary and her children are In

In the intervals between expedl-

frequently and has written several
books.
