The Geographical Features of DR..
Cook Achievement.

The dispatches which confirm yes
terday's news that DIR. Frederick A.
Cook succeeded in reaching the north
pole during the latter part of April,
1908, reveal the fact that the intrepid
American explorer carried out his or
iginal intention, and also support Com
mander Peary's judgment as to the
point from which an expedition
would have to start across the ice
pack in order to reach the pole.
DIR. Cooks plan differed from Peary's
only in the manner Of reaching this
point, and in the time for the dash
across the ice. He went to the west
ern part of Grant Land near Cape
Hubbard by sledging through Elise
mere Land, to the west of the chan
nels along the coast of Greenland, and
followed Nansen sound toward the
Arctic sea, through country teem-
ing with musk oxen and other game.
Peary went to the starting point by
ship to Cape Sheridan and thence by
sledge westward along the Arctic
coast. The game country through
which DIR. Cook travelled was drawn
upon by Peary during his expedition
of 1866, for the repleniShment of
his SUPPLIES of meat Peary sent ex-
petitions after game during the win
ter, while he was waiting for the re-
appearance of the sun. DR.. Cook
chose the winter FIR his sledging be-
cause he believed he would find the
ice solid, and suffer no delays through
encountering leads or riffs, such as
defeated Peary on previous expedi-
tions, but his story reveals the fact
that he had troubles of this kind be-
fore he reached the pole i'm April, and
during his perilous return.
DR. Cook believes that he passed
over ice-coyered land between the S7th
and SSth degrees of latitude, But
this belief is founded only on obser-
walton that the ice looked like Gland
ice" during two days of travel. 1t
reSembled glacial surface and the
usual sea lines of demarkation were
absent, but there was no perceptible
elevation, and no positive sign of
land. Beyond latitude SS.2l the pack
became more active, but tempera-
ture of 40 degrees minus quickly
sealed all creviceS. Even here there
seemed TO be signs of land each day,
but the explorer himself admits that
they may have been deceptive illu-
sions or mere fancy" However, the
fact that man of DIR. Cooks expert
ence on sea and glacial ice was led by
ice indications to believe that ne was
travelling over land, will give Arctic
exploration a new incentive of far
more Importance to geographers than
the taking of observations with in
struments over the axis of the earth.
There will be seekers for this land in
the near future, who will hope for
opportunity to delimit it in the in
terest of science. Evening Wisconsin.

Discovered.

There will be no little qualification
in the United States because it has
been the fortune of an American ex-
plorer to discover the North pole,
which for so long had baf1led the
efforts of man to reach it, the north
ern seas and lands being strewed with
the bones of adventurous spirits that
have lost their lives in arctic explora-
ton.
Dr. Cook has succeeded in making
immortal his name. 1t will be re-
membered and his achievement held
of record as long as civilization shall
endure. And it will be of benefit to
mankind. The pole, having been dis
covered, there no longer will remain
incentive to equip expeditions and
send them forth in its quest. The
pole has been found and the sacrifice
of human life may be ended.
In other respects, the discovery may
be of no practical purpose. A spot on
the surface of the earth-an inacces-
sible spot-has been reached-tha is
ALL 1t is in the obstacles that have
been overcome that the glory lies
rather than in the mere discovery of
the pole itself 1t brings no new or
useful knowledge to mankind
We would not minimize the achieve
ment of DR.. Cook. One OF our fellow
citizens has reached the goal in quest
of the golden fleece of the moderns.
He is an American, and claiming
kinship with him we may hope to
share the honor and glory OF his
triumph. The dragon of the ice
bound seas has been slain in an adyen-
ture more hazardous than any that
befell the knights of King Arthur's
court. Perils to make the brayeSt
heart quail were confronted and over
come The frozen hurricanes of the
arctic circle were faced and brayed.
The dark and ceaseless night of an
arctic winter barred not the way.
And when the goal was reached there
was none to welcome him. Milwaukee

Tue opinion of bankers of the state
on the question of the guaranteeing
of bank deposits, is being obtained by
means of a straw vote that is being
taken by Secretary George ID. Bart
lett, of the State Bankers association.
This is one of the questions that will
come up before the joint special Leg
islative committee ON banks and
banking. Senator w. c. Owen, chair
man of the committee, favors this
plan of protecting depositors in state
banks.
Mr.. Bartlett said on Thursday that
he had received replies from about
one-half the members, and therefore
would defer giving out anything re-
garding the vote until the canvass
had been completed.

BRIEF SKETCH OF PEARY.

Commander Robert e, Peary, who
reports he has reached the north
pole, has won fame as an explorer
and has made several efforts TO reach
the north pole.
His last expedition for the north
left New York in July, 1908, and the
last words received from him were
that prospects were good.
Commander Peary was born at
Cresson, Pa, in 1856, and was edu-
Gated at Bowdoin college. He en-
tered the United States navy as a
civil engineer in 1881, was in charge
of the Nicaraguan canal surveys in
lS87-S8, and made his first northern
voyage in 1886. He has been award
ed two gold medals and has been
president of the American Geograph-
ical society.
Wausau pilot. [volume] (Wausau, Wis.) 1896-1940, 1909-09-07
Commander Robert e. Peary also
Reaches the North Pole.

The following dispatch was received
yesterday in New York:
Indian Harbor, Via Cape Raw. N.
+. Sept. 6-Stars and Stripes nailed
TO The North Pole. PEARY."
This means that Commander Robert
E. Peary who left this country July
9th, 1908, in search of the north pole
has also been successful in reaching
the goal of his ambition just little
over year after Dr. Cook made the
discovery. This is glory enough for
our country for a generation. OF
course there will be bitter wrangle
between the Cook and Peary factions,
but what of that-there is glory
enough in it for both. No doubt but
what Commander Peary had the
better equipment: had scientific men
which will enable him to give more
accurate details of the conditions
which prevail at the pole. In few
weeks the world viii have all the OBJ
seryations made by these great ex-
plorers and know much more about
that part of the United States.
Now, we all know that the sun, at
least, shines six months on the posses
sions of the United States. If Cook
or Peary will only plant the stars and
stripes at the South pole we can truly
say that the sun never sets on our
possessions

The Biz Snowstorm

Ebert and vicinity was swept this
week by one of the biggest blizzards in
a good many years. Snow fell Sunday
to the depth Of sixteen inches. This
was followed on Monday by great bliz-
zard which raised all OF the loose snow
and piled it into drifts. The double
header train from the south became
stalled in the big drifts near Falcon. A
snow plow was sent from Denver to its
relief and was caught in a cut near East
onville. Another train was sent from
Denver and this one was also stopped.
The blockade was finally removed today
and the belated trains are now getting
through.
Elbert has received no mail since Non
day evening, consequently The Tribune
is short OF news. We trust our readers
will overlook our deficiency and we will
make good next week.
