lumbia University. a member of the
party which attempted the ascent of
Mt. Mckinley. declared last night. in

CLUB OFFICIALS TO REJECT
COOKS M'KINLEY CLAIM.

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-The disap-
pearance of DIR. Frederick A. Cook is
likely to cost him dear The commit
tee Of the Explorers Club, which for
more than two months has been inves-
tigating DIR. Cooks reputed ascent of
Mt. Mckinley in September, 1906. has
completed it's examination, and Profess
sor Marshall II. Saville, the chairman,
does not deny that the report will be
unfavorable.
The doctor promised last October to
a1pear before the committee, whenever
desired, to explain points that might
need clearing up. He never did APP
pear and when Professor Saville was
asked II the doctors action had in any
way embarrassed the committee he
said:
"You may judge that for yourself.
We did expect DIR. Cook to come be-
fore us. We extended the invitation
to him as a matter of fairness. and he
did not avail himself of it,"
The report will be made public Fri
day.

Especial to the Newark start

TRENTON, Dec. 81. Although
"rooms of reflection or "lockups' and
the boot" have been abolished as
of punishment in the New Jer-
sey State Home for Boys, at James
burg, corporal punishment is still in
vogue at the institution. This is shown
i'll the annual report of John c.. Kali

that deprivation of a meal of bread and
water is no longer tolerated. The in

every case return of their own volition.

rect cause of the greater number of

In support of the ACCESSIBILITY of the
retention of corporal punishment, the
superintendent in his report says:

whipped or otherwise abused by the

Trouble Ahead.

Says the BrattleborO Phoenix:
"The ignoring of party platforms will
be taken by the rank and file OF the
voters as a violation of faitl and rs a
form of political trickery should be re-
buked" This is certainly true, not
only as pertaining to affairs in the
National Congress, but concerning
transactions in the recent session al
Montpelier We shall be very much
mistaken if some of those wise ones,
especially in the Senate do not hear
some plain talk next year about party
platforms and the violation of he
platform pledges by them.-Morris-
vile News and Citizen.
The editor of the News and Citizen
was himself a member of the Senate,
but one w1o used his influence,
though without success in some
instances, to have the declara-
tions of the Republican party plat
form observed. The unfortunate
thing is that next year most of the
members, who opposed the passage
of laws in conformity with the plat
form will be down and out politically,
fact which they had undoubtedly
reckoned on, and cannot be reach
ed. The Republican party itself, how
ever, will have to suffer instead of
these smart gentlemen The party
should make no mistake of this kind
in the future. Every candidate should
be personally and publicly pledged to
support the party platform. When
politicians will ignore their implied
promises to the people, it is time to
pin" them all, where they will have
to stand hitched.-Nortnfield News.

If the action of Judge Waterman at
Rutland Wednesday in cutting the
Davis verdict against the Rutland
railroad from $1,000 to $500 will
save it from going to supreme court
it will be a good thing. The laws of
the state do not take care of these
negligence cases or permit the courts
to take care of them properly. Juries
are prone to return heavy verdicts
especially against corporations, YER
diets which are often excessive and
unfair. TIE defendant of course
takes the case to supreme court and
all that court can do is to send it back
for a new trial IL the verdict is found
excessive. The second jury realizing
that the plaintiff has been put to an
additional expense by the second trial
is likely to make the second verdict
larger and more excessive than the
first. Up it goes to supreme court
and back again probably for a third
trial The plaintiff loses all he has
and if he gets anything in the end it
is not enough to pay his expenses in
the trial. At the same time the cor
porations, and especially the railroads,
are compelled to keep up extensive
and expensive legal departments to
protect the companies and to dis
courage and tire out Migrants. The
present laws work unfairly both ways.
Why wouldn't it be better to send all
such cases before a special tribunal
composed equitably, say of one SUI
preme court judge and two superior
judges, and let their finding be final.
