PEARY PRONOUNCES
RECORDS COMPLETE
Says That Priceless Package VIII Not
Be Opened for Any Cause Until
He Reaches New York.

BATTLE HARBOR, Sept. 1S.-
Commander Peary was asked today
what would have been his position
had he been taken sick at the pole
with no one of the exploring party
capable of taking observations. He
replied: my last moments would
have been devoted to taking observa-
tons in order to leave the record.
would not have permitted anything to
interfere with that important duty,
and I would have handed the records
to Eskimos to take to Mrs. Peary. If
had died within sight of the pole
1 would have had to depend on my
Eskimos to tell how far they travelled
from the last supporting party, or on
my observations.
my records are complete and
most carefully kept. They are sealed
in skins and parchments, so that IL
thrown on the ice or water they
would probably drift for years with
out sinking or being damaged and
would eventually have been found.
This priceless package will not be
opened until I arrive at New York
Peary confirms the statement that
four Eskimos were with him at the
pole. He says he has made no state
ment different from this.

TAFT LAUDS GOV. JOHNSON
Presidential Trip Through Minnesota
MARRIED BY Serious Condition Of
States Executive.

MINNEAPOLIS. Sept. 1S.-Presi-
dent Taft came to the Twin Cities Of
Minnesota today. With the shadow Of
death hanging over the governor Of
the state, he received a cordial but
not demonstrative welcome. The
critical illness of Governor johnson,
probably the most popular executive
Minnesota ever has known. entered
deeply into the spirit of the day and
dreaded eventualities threatened for a
time during the morning seriously to
curtail the program or entertainment.
both here and in st. Paul. The presi-
dent fulfilled the progra moutlined for
his reception but at every pause in
the rushing from place to place he
made anxious inquiries as to the latest
word from the bedside of the COVER
nor. whose life hung in the balance at
st. Mary's hospital in the little city
of Rochester. The president was
deeply affected to receive personal
greeting from the governor.
Compliment Is Great Surprise.
The compliment was so unexpected
under the circumstances and, coming
by dictatiOn from the lips of the man
who was reported at the time as hav-
ing but the frailest chance for life,
it called for an immediate response
from Mr.. Taft, filled with expressions
of sympathetic concern and fervent
hope for a speedy recovery.
At his auditorium speech in St.
Paul the president called out pro-
longed applause and cheering when he
declared of Governor Johnson;
Il unite with you in fervent prayer
that the governor may be spared to
you and to the country. With his
ability, his courage, his great COM
mon sense, he can not be spared by
the people. He is too valuable, not
alone to the people of your state but
to the people of the nation. who
doubtless will insist some time that he
shall serve them"

aration plant in a retail meat market
in North Yakima. They have also

Benoit store the advantages of a first
class cold storage. From the rear of
the store, liquid amonia is piped
through three large compartments in
which meat will be stored and from
there through the glass show cases in
the front Of the store, thereby keeping
all the meat at any temperatur de-
sired whatever may be the tempera-
ture in tn store proper. The temper
atur in the different compartments
may be regulated as desired. The
whole system is perfectly sanitary.

yard master and who is in charge of
the track laying gang. There is also
conductor in service waiting to
handle his first train. Speaking of the
conditions the Kennewick Courier
says:
THE first conductor on the North
Coast is also here waiting orders so
that rolling Stock will undoubtedly
soon be on the ground. Some of the
first engines have been completed in
eastrn shops and are said to be on
their way west, and Resident Engineer
Leslie says one of these engines will
arrive at Kennewick in a few days.
Some of the cars are already complet-
ed and can be brought down from
Spokane and Spirit Lake. Idaho, at
any time they are needed.
Grade Ready for Rails.
THE grade is ready for the rails
from here to a point northeast of
Prosser and the steel will be laid with
a standard track laying machine
which will put down about four miles
a day. Last Sunday eight carloads of
steel for the North Coast passed
through Billings and some of them
have already arrived and others will
be coming every day as the steel for
rs miles has been completed at Pueblo
foundry and is being shipped as de-
manded. In accordance with the per-
nit granted the North Coast to use
certain streets for six months, the
North Coast is getting ready to build
the walk required on Seventh street
leading to the Old School house and
the lumber is on the ground. All
these items show a more general ac-
tivity than the North Coast has ever
shown before and indicate so the men
in their employ say that the active
construction period has at last arriv-
ed and that Kennewick will get the
new railroad which 1t has been wait
ing for long this winter"
