STATE CAPITAL cuLLlNes.


Because the money was withdrawn
before interest-paying period had ex-
pired, the state loses interest on S10.-
600 which the state agricultural board
had on deposit in the Citizens Saw
ings and Trust Co., Cleveland, for
period of 7S days, according to an
opinion of Attorney General Denman
to State Treasurer Creamer. Diligent
search of the statutes fails to reveal
any provision by which either the
board or any of its members can be
held liable for this interest. If this
interest is lost because of dereliction
Of duty on the part Of the board or
any of it's members it seems only pu-
nitive action can be taken through the
exercise of the power given him to
remove members of the board.

Spain in suppressing the revolt in
Barcelona is doing more than settling
her own critical problem. She is
facing and overcoming, for season at
least, one of the largest and most for
midable centers of agitation against
the authority of state and church.
Europe is face to face with spread
ing movement among the masses
which challenges the liberalism of rep
resentative government, as we'll as the
conservatism of autocracy. The sta
bility of lawful government requires
that such rebellion be checked with a
stern hand.

Cincinnati, O.-Responding to a
call for aid at the house of neigh
Dor, into which negro burglar had

Maddox came over to the Barnes

stantly. An open knife was found in
the fingers of the dead man.

To those lovers of the good old
times who mourned the disappearance
of the venerable and highly respected
sea serpent from the news of the day
it will come as pleasant relief to
know that the real old sea serpent OF
their own and their fathers day is do
ing business again at the old stand
He was seen the other day off Cape
Hatteras, seemingly in good health
and spirits and with eight feet to his
credit and length. After all. the vi
tally of the old-time fish stories out

Undeniably Yankee grit has con-
quered the frozen north and there has
been created coincidence such as
the world will never see again. Two
Americans have planted the flag of
their country in the land of ice which
man has sought to penetrate for four
centuries and each ignorant of the
others conquest has flashed within a
period of five days a laconc message
of success to the waiting world.
Peary's Message Specific.
Cook in his first message to his
countrymen was brief but non-com-
initial; Peary was even briefer, but
specific. STARS and Stripes nailed to
the North Pole" he said. That was
all, but never before have so few
words conveyed to people a greater
meaning or a greater patriotic salts
faction,
On September l, DR.. Cook sent out
from the Shetland Islands the first
message OF his success-a message
which has aroused a storm of contro-
versy around the world. On Septem-
ber 6 Robert e. Peary, lost from view
IN the land oil Ice and unheard from
since August, 1908, startled the world
by similar message sent from In.
dian Harbor, Labrador There was nc
qualification; 1t left no doubt. 1t an,
nounced unequivocally that he had
reached the top of the world. Thus
two flags with the Stars and Stripes
of the United States are floating in
the packs, proving the courage of in
torpid Americans. With but a word
from Peary the world waits breath
lessly for details, but until to-day
when he should arrive at Chateau
Bay, Labrador, waiting must suffice.
Ship Roosevelt Safe.

meagre information at $3.50 p. m.

Battle with Giant Fish.

New York City.-A giant fish,
known as a Stingaree. was landed by
a party of fishermen in small boat
in Jamaica bay. and as result of his
battle with the fierce monster, Ar
mand Muller of Brooklyn is in a pre-
carious condition in st. Marys hospi
tai. Muller was fishing for sea bass
when he felt strong tug at his line
Others helped him draw the fighting
fish to the surface. and then. when
they tried to let so of IL, the Stingaree
leaped into the vessel. II is large fish
with fiat-llke sides and long rat-tail.

The lot of rulers in Russia, Turkey,
Portugal, Morocco, Persia and Spain
not to speak of some South American
countries, might appear to a calmly
philosophic observer calculated to dis
courage the pretending business. 1t
does not seem to the ordinary man
that the job from which you are likely
to be forcibly detached by a mob, OIL
dynamite bomb, is worth straining
yourself to get. But royal human ma
ture is such that the pretenders keep
right on pretending.

1t is the indirect loss which counts
adversely when epidemics of any kind
break out in country. and quarantine
precautions are instituted by other ma
tions. The British government has just
revoked the orders prohibiting the
landing of hay and straw from New
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania
Maryland and Delaware. although the
foot and mouth disease which appeared
among the cattle of those states in
1908 has been stamped out for many
months.

ditional information sent to herbert
the Peary Arctic club: Pole reached.
Roosevelt safe.-Peary."
This gave assurance that the vessel
in which Peary departed had passed
through the ice unscathed but details
of his homecoming and the date of the
date of the discovery of the pole were
still lacking. 1t was not until the New
York Times had received dispatch
later in the afternoon that these vital
points were cleared up. The message
said: IL have the pole April 6. Bx-
pect arrive Chateau Bay September

was a comparatively simple matter to
ascertain that the April referred to
was April of the present year, as his
expedition did not start from New
York utnil July Z, 1908.
Planted Flag April 6, 1909.
April 6, 1909-the date that Peary
planted the flag at the pole-and
April 81, 1908, the day that DR.. Cook
unfurled the Stars and Stripes year
before, consequently become the car
dinal dates upon which exploration of
the far north will rest hereafter.
Though separated by nearly a year,
the same feat was accomplished by
two Americans neither of whom was
aware of the movements of the other.
Cook says that he found no traces of
Peary in the moving ice and accord

through Capt. Robert Bartlett of
Peary's ship, the Roosevelt, Septem-
ber 6, Peary likewise found no signs
of his reputed predecessor. However,
this phase of Peary's experiences will
not be thoroughly cleared up until a
statement is obtained from his own
lips.
Or. Cook Pleased.
Copenhagen.-Copen was cleo
trified by the report of Commander
Peary's announcement that he had
reached the North Pole. Dr. Cook
was immensely interested and said:
THAT is good news. hope Peary did
| get the pole. His observations and re-
ports on that region will confirm
mine"
Asked if there was any probability
of Peary's having found the tube con-
tanning his records. DR.. Cook replied:
II hope so, but that is doubtful on ac-
count of the drift"
DR.. Cook added: Commander
Peary would have reached the pole
this year. Probably while 1 was in the
Arctic region last year his route was
several hundred miles east of mine.
We are rivals of course, but the pole
| is good enough for two.
THAT two men got to the pole along
different paths,' continued the ex-
plorer, Should furnish large addi-
tions to scientific knowledge. Prob
ably other parties will reach it in the
next ten years, since every explorer is
helped by the experience of his pre-
decessors, just as Svrdrup's observa-
tions and reports were of immeasur-
able help to me. l can say nothing
more, without knowing further de.
tails, than that l am glad of it."

Robert E. Peary, who announced that he
had discovered the North Pole on April 8
of the present year. found no traces of DR..
Frederick A. Cook of Brooklyn, who re-
ported to the world six days ago that he
had made the same discovery in April of
the preceding year. This news reached
here through Capt. Robert Bartlett of the
Roosevelt, Peary's ship, enroute to Cha
teau bay, Labrador. Capt. Bartlett tele-
graphed to relatives here that Peary had
found nothing to Indicate that DR.. Cook
had reached the pole. While Peary does
not expressly repudiate Or. Cooks con-
tention In so many words, his statement
may have an important bearing upon de-
tormining the extent of Cooks expiora-
tions.
