CELEBRATE FOUNDING OF THEIR

Actual Anniversary Was In June but
Archbishop Farley Was Not Then
Present.

NEW YORK. Dec. "A celebration
of the centennial anniversary of the
founding of the order of the Sisters of
Charity in the United States by Eliz-
abeth Ann Bayley Seton, was COM
menced today in every Catholic church
of the city, and will continue through
in June, but the absence of Archbishop
Farley in Europe caused the observ-
ance to be postponed. A solemn
pOntifical mass was celebrated by
Archbishop Farley in St. Patrick's
cathedral today The preacher was
Mgr Mccain, of ST. Peters, in
which church Mother Seton was bap-
tized. Nearly all the bishops and cler-

ROTATION BETTER
THAN FERTILIZER

phosphates and nitrates are us5d in
great quantity on producing
ground for any length of time. The
tendency is, say the scientists, for the
crops to draw their strength from the
natural soil itself, and the thousands
of bacteria that are known to be carry
ing on their work of reconstruction in
not active and soon become useless al
together.
Sensible rotation of crops will pro-
duce much better and more lasting
results than the artificial fertilization
of soils, say the experts.

is asserted here that if the department
OF justice, which is now investigating
the SO called electric trust, is unable
to carry the inquiry to q satisfactory
conclusion either the senate or house
of Representatives will take the matter
up. Indeed. there is tax among the
democrats and ''insurgent" republicans
of launching an inquiry into the affairs
of the General Electric company and
the merger of the telephone and tele-
graph companies of the country. The
story that an effort was made to quiet
an electric trust investigation just pri-
or to the presidential election by an
offer of a large sum of money to the
campaign fund of the republican party
caused a sensation here. According
to the story that is being discussed

Eskimo boys We're suggested by Com
mander Peary to some Of US. and were
put by us to the Eskimo boys.
Still later. Commander Peary asked
the Eskimo boys two or three casual
questions ON minor points that had
occurred to him.
During the taking Of this testimony,
it developed that Dr. Cook had told
these boys, as he told Mr.. Whitney
and Billy Pritchard. the cabin boy.
that they must not tell Commander
Peary or any of US anything about
their journey. and the boys stated
DR.. Cook had threatened them II they
should tell anything
The narrative Of these Eskimos is
as follows;
They. with Dr. Cook. Francke and
nine other Eskimos. left Anoratok,
crossed Smiths Sound to Cape Sabine,
slept in Commander Peary's old house
in Payer Harbor. then went through
Rice Strait to Buchanan Bay. After a
few marches Francke and three Eski-
mos returned to Anoratok
DR.. Cook. with the others. then pro-
ceeded up Flagler Bay. branch Of
Buchanan Bay, and crossed Ellesmere
Land through the valley pass at the
head of Flagler Bay. indicated by Com
mander Peary In 1898. and utilized by
Everdrup In 1859. to the head Of Sver-
drup's bay Fiord" on the west side
NJ E1losrnoro land
Their route then lay out through this
nord. thence north through Sverdrup's
"Heuerka Sound" and Nansen Strait.
On their way they killed musk-oxen
and bear, and made caches, arriving
eventually at point on the west side
Of hansen Strait Qshore Of Axel Hell
berg Land Of Sverdrup), south Of Cape
Thomas Hubbard.
A cache was formed here and the
four Eskimos did not 90 beyond this
point. Two others. Kooiootingwah and
Inughito, went on one more march
with DR.. Cook and the two boys, help
ed to build the snow igloo, then re-
turned without sleeping.
CThese two Eskimos brought back

The second boy was then called in
and the two went over the chart to-
gether. the second boy suggesting
some changes As noted hereafter.
Finally. Panikpah, the father, was
again called In to verify details Of the
portions Of the route with which he
was personally familiar

miles, IN twenty seven days.

After killing the deer they then trav-
elled south along the east side of Ring
mes Land to the point indicated on the
chart, where they killed another deer.
They then went east across the south
part of Crown Prince Gustav Sea to
the south end of Heiberg Land, then
down through Norwegian Bay, where
they secured some bears, but not until
after they had killed some of their
dogs, to the east side of Graham Is
land; then eastward to the little bay
marked "Eid's Fiord" on Sverdrup's
chart; then southwest to Hell's Gate
and Simmons Peninsula.
Here for the first time during the
entire journey, except as already noted
off Cape Thomas 81. Hubbard, they
encountered open water. On this point
the boys were clear, emphatic. and I'M
shakable. They spent good deal of
time in this region. and finally aban-
doned their dogs and one sledge, took
to their boat, crossed Helps Gate to
North Kent. up into Norfolk Inlet
then back along the north coast of
Colin Archer Peninsula to Cape Vera,
where they obtained fresh elder duck
eggs. Here they cut the remaining
sledge of, that is shortened 1t. as it was
awkward to transport with the boat.
and near here they killed a walrus.
The statement in regard to the fresh
elder duck eggs permits the approx
mate determination Of the date at this
time as about the first of July. (This
statement also serves. If indeed any
thing more than the inherent straight
forwardness and detail of their nara
tive were needed, to substantiate the
accuracy and truthfulness of the boys
statement. This locality Of Cape Vera
is mentioned in Sverdrup's narrative
as the place where during his stay In
that region he obtained elder ducks
eggs.)
From Cape Vera they went on down
into the southwest angle of Jones
Sound. where they killed seal; thence
east along the south coast of the
Sound. killing three bears at the point
noted on the map. to the peninsula
known as Cape Sparbo on the map.
about midway on the south side of
Jones Sound. Here they killed some
musk-oxen and, continuing east. killed
four more at the place indicated on
the chart, and were finally stopped by
the pack ice at the mouth Of Jones
Sound. From here they turned back
to Cape Sparbo. where they wintered
and killed many musk-oxen.
After the sun returned In 1909 they
started, pushing their sledge, across
Jones Sound to Cape Tennyson; thence
along the coast to Clarence Head pass
ing inside of two small islands not
shown on the chart. but drawn on 1t
by the boys). where they killed a bear;
thence across the broad blight In the
coast to Cadogan Fiord; thence around
Cape Isabella and up to Commander
Peary's old house In Payer Harbor
near Cape Sabine. where they found a
seal cached for them by Panikpah.

THE DOCTORS
Question.
Some Advice Against the
Use of Harsh Purgatives
and Physics.

A DOCTORS first question when consulted
by patient is, ''Are your bowels regu
lar?" He knows that 9S per cent. of ILL
ness is attended with inactive bowels and
torpid liver. This condition poisons the
system with waste matter and causes ac-
cumulation OF gases which must be re-
moved through the bowels before health
can be restored.
Salts, ordinary pills and catnartics may
be truly likened to dynamite. Through
their harsh, irritating action they force
passage through the bowels, causing pain
and damage to the delicate intestinal
structure which weakens the system, and
at best only produces temporary relief.
The repeated use OF such treatments
causes chronic irritation OF the stomach
and bowels, dries and hardens theirs
nerves, stiffens their muscles and generally
brings about an injurious habit which
sometimes has almost, if not, fatal results.
We have pleasant and safe remedy for
constipation and bowel disorders in gem
eral. We are so certain OF Its curative
value that we promise to return the pur-
chaser's money in every case where it fails
to produce entire satisfaction. This rem
edy is called Rexall Orderlies. We urge
you to try them at our entire risk.
Rexall Orderlies are eaten like candy,
they act quietly and have soothing,
strengt hening, healing, regulative intiu-
ence on the entire intestinal tract. They
do not purge, grippe, cause nausea, fiatu
lence, excessive looseness, diarrhpa or
other annoying effects, and they may be
taken at any time without Inconvenience.
Rexall Orderles overcome the druggipg
habit and safely remedy constipation and
associate ailments, whether acute or
chronic, except in surgical cases. They are
especially good for children, weak persons
or old folks. Price, SO tablets 25 cents,
and II tablets 10 cents. Remember, you

FOR COUNTY JUDGE WHO?
D. W. Maloney, Of course.

d. w. Maloney, of course.
Why?
Because he is capable, honest and
deserving.
First. He is capable. He posses
SEES good education, is lawyer OF
good standing and has large share
of that invaluable faculty commonly
called good horse sense.
Second. He is honest from princi-
ple-not from policy. He has been
an unwavering foe to grafters ano
grating, of high and low degree,
and could always be relied upon to
assist in movements that had the adj
vancement or betterment of condi.
tons in town, county, state or nation
in view.
Three. He is deserving. No man
in this county has given, without
recompense, more of his time and
labor TO advance the interests of the
county than Mr.. Maloney. His work
in the Rusk County Development AS
ISOLATION is an illustration: it was
he who did all the work, practically,
of gathering the material, drafting
and writing the Rusk county adver-
Using circular; this work, in many
other counties was paid for, but Mr..
Maloney refused to accept any com
pensation, considering, the work a
labor of love. He has always been
contributor to any enterprise that
had for it's object the upbuilding OF
uplifting of the community.
Four. He does not come from
Ladysmith. There is no reason un-
der heaven why the people of Rusk
should be content to have all then
county Offices filled by citizens OF
Ladysmith, even tho that city be the
headquarters of the "gang."
Five. He has never held a county
office; while, on the other hand, his
opponent has never let go of the
public teat since coming to this
county
There are many things that could
be said, honestly and truthfully, as te
Mr. Maloney's opponent, but if we
should say them we would have the
whole gang bowling that we were
singing mud. However it does seem
to us that Judge McGill has great
deal of assurance and timerity to be q
candidate for any office at this time.
He is, perhaps, seeking vindication at
the hands of the people, but it does
seem, to us, that it would be more fit
ing should he secure vindication in the
courts before asking it from the
people.
Under all the circumstances we can
not see why any man should vote
against Mr.. Maloney in favor OF
McGill. -Hawkins Reporter.

FOR SUPERINTENDENT

Mr.. Mackin's work throughout the
county has been generally satisfactory.
He has by his many visits to every
district, become intimately acquainted
with each school and each community.
Through examinations, teachers
meetings, Institutes, and observa-
ton of school room work, he knows
the ability of most of the county
teachers. This knowledge enables
him to intelligently aid clerks in select
ing teachers best adapted to the needs
of their respective schools.
When the county gets as honest,
competent and active a superinten-
dent as Mr. Mackin, it can we'll afford
to keep him in office as long as he can
afford to hold it. The knowledge,
skill and energy he has expended in
actual supervision, has given him an
experience which is invaluable and
which can come in no other way. Can
you afford to let your school lose the
benefit Of this experience?-Tony
Enterprise.

PROF. MAcKiN a BOOSTER.

Owing to the fact that Prof. w. N.
Mackin, candidate for reelection as
county superintendent, pays most of
his bills by check, he has the evidence
to prove that he is a genuine boost
err" Out of his 5000 salary he has
paid during the past year $637, for
which he has the checks to show, to
merchants and laborers Of Ladysmith.
Of course he has paid other smaller
amounts in cash. Besides this he, has
paid $l05 into the city treasury in
taxes, water rent etc.
Mr.. Mackin is one of Ladysmith' s
best citizens; he owns his own home,
and has the best interests of the city at
heart. And whether Ladysmith has a
legal right to vote for county superin-
tendent or not, from business stand
point, Mr.. Mackin should receive the
solid support of Ladysmith voters.

POLITICS AND SCHOOLS

The political trick of the city coun-
Gil, which is apparently subservient to
the wishes of Judge McGill and his
associates in politics. when it put out
the city superintendent, is having the
opposite effect from what was intend
ed by them. Not only are the farmers
and villagers ranking that the city,
just after paying it's taxes for the city
superintendent, should get vote on
the county superintendent for whose
salary the city has paid no taxes for
several years, but the believers in fair
play here in the city also are turning
against such repulsive methods.
McGill will lose many votes in both
city and county on account of this
trick of his ring. The city separated
from the county in the fall before the
tax was levied, and this kept some
money in the city which would have
gone to the county. Tom Baker voted
then to separate and have city super
intendent; this caused little comment at
the time, but now when Mr.. Baker, as
mayor, signs the ordinance abolishing
the office OF city superintendent; just
before election, the people of the
county realize that they are being
duped. The people of the city will
show on election day that they be-
lieVe in fairness and disapprove of this
action.

Sign That Marks the Day When There

THE SAME ARGUMENT

eve do not believe, with the ex-
perience we have had in dry towns, "
says the Tony Enterprise, 'that this
village can afford to vote No License.
With the heavy expense the town is in
and no money in the treasury, the
license money would be a very good
thing. Otherwise could we afford to
vote out the license here when the
neighboring towns would grant licenses
and Tony get the benefit of the drink
ing with nothing to show for it. The
records show NOT ONE arrest in the
past year for intoxication, which speaks
very we'll for wet town. With the
liquor question so we'll in hand here,
land the past years record will show
how we'll the saloons are under con-
troll would it not be poor policy to
cut off this revenue at this time.
The town of Dewey, in which Tony
is situated receives $100 from each of
her two saloons. Perhaps 5000 looks
as big to Tony as $4,000 does to Lady
smith.
