WHO SHALL OWN
THE NORTH POLE?

Washington, Sept. 6.-State de-
partment officials believe it is of lit
tie consequence to the United States
what lands DR.. Cook has discovered
on his way to the north pole, so far
as actual territorial possession is
concerned.
1t is recalled by the department Of
ficials that ever since 1928 American
explorers in both the Arctic and Ant
arctic have discovered vast areas of
land to which no claims ever were
made. An American, Wilkes, found
in the Antarctic territory of more
than 100000 square miles in area
and DR.. Kane made large discoveries
in the Arctic, but no effort has been
made by the United States to assert
it's rights to them.
General Greedy some years ago 10
Gated lands that never before were
known to exist.
Many Of the worlds greatest navi-
gators have from time to time made
discoveries to which no claim was
ever made The principal reason for
this, hawever. is said to be that the
lands were almost inaccessible and
absolutely of no value.
Az to the particular territory which
DR.. Cook is said to have discovered,
it was asserted that it was quite
that these lands would be
found to be an extension of the main
land of Greenland and If so they be-
long to Denmark. At any rate 1t Is
improbable. it is said, that
the United States would attempt to
assert sovereignty over them.

INJURED MAN DIED
YESTERDAY:
ROY BROWN, INJURED AT COL
UMBIA SIDING FRIDAY NIGHT,
PASSED AWAY YESTERDAY
MORNING.

Roy Brown, the youn man who was
injured Friday night at Columbia Sid
ing while attempting to steal ride
on the Great Northern freight train
bound for Seattle, died at the Gill
christ hospital yesterday morning at
II o'clock The remains were taken
to the Wenatchee Undertaking Par
lors, which company will have charge
of the shipment of the body to his
old home at Archie, Missouri. The
deceased was about "a years of age,
and is a recent arrival from the east.
He had paid his fare as far as Col
umbia Siding and then thought to
save his money and beat his way the
rest of the distance to Seattle. At
tempting to do so he climbed onto
a freight train Friday night, but the
train in passing the station platform,
hurled the man against some fruit
boxes which were piled up on the
platform. Brown was thrown under
the train and the result was that he
had one arm badly crushed and he
also received internal injuries from
which he was not able to recover. DR..
Mccoy did everything possible for
him but on Saturday announced that
his injuries would be fatal.

CELEBRATE LABOR
DAY
EVERY BIG CITY IN THE NATION
CELEBRATES THIS DAY AS A
LEGAL HOLIDAY - PRINTERS
FIRST MODERN UNION.

New York. Sept. 6.-Labor Day,
which is now generally observed in
every important center of population
in the United States, is an institu-
ton of comparatively recent origin,
the first Labor Day celebration ever
held was on the first Monday in Sep
tember, 1881, in New York City. The
general assembly of the Knights OF
Labor was in session at that time
and a parade OF 10000 members was
reviewed by the general officers in
Union Square. It was on that occa-
sion that the name Labor Day" was
first used.
Master Workman Powderly was
standing In the reviewing stand with
General Worthy Foreman Griffith, a
veteran in the labor movement. Rob-
ert Price, a coal miner, ani a num-
Der of the assembly of the Knights
watched the parade for a few min
utes and then, slapping Griffith on
the back said: "Well, Jack, this is
Labor Day all right, isn't it,"
The remark. overheard by George
M. Lloyd of the New York Central
Labor union, led him to introduce 8
resolution in his local, setting aside
the first Monday in September as a
day to celebrate labor's progress. He
took his resolution to the New York
legislature. While it was pending
there Oregon, with fewer than a
thousand trades unionists. passed a
state law designating a labor day
New York, with 100000 unionists,
although first to propose a law, was
second to enact one. Now practical
ly all the states have Labor Day
laws. The national government, in
1894. recognized the day and con-
gress- in a resolution fixed the first
Monday in September as day when
all work would be suspended and en-
ployes and employers would get to-
