scHLEy IS FOR COOK
A Man Of Integrity and Med.
esty But Firm in
Emergency.
The Arctic Club Recognizes DIR. Cook
As the DiscOverer of the Pole
and Peary AS the Man Who
Reached There.

New York, Sept. 13.-That polemics
could not only generate, but maintain
unabated such heat, needed the proof
of seeing and hearing to believe, but
with DR.. Cook homeward bound and
Commander Peary now in touch with
the correspondents, two swelling
streams of conflicting affirmation are
now centred on a city already boiling
over. Comment and criticism lack
nothing of their previous acidity and
rather gain than lose in volume.
Previous assumption that Comman-
der Peary would have the United
States Navy solidly behind him was
not borne out in a letter from Rear
Admiral Schley (retired) made public
today by Capt. B. S. Osbon, secretary
of the Arctic Club of America, of
which DR.. Cook is a member. The
letter under date of September IL
from Pocono Manor, Pa, runs in part
as follows:
81 like Cooks attitude Immensely
in this unfortunate, unnecessary and
unwise colloquy. He certainly has
zen dignifed in this matter"
Captain Osbon followed up his let
ter from the admiral tonight with a
lecture on "Who discovered the north
pole?"
Or Frederick A. Cook" he said,
was for two years my Wife's physi-
clan. I saw him two or three times a
week and we chatted many hours. If
1 have ever known a man of integ-
rity, probity sincerity and modesty, it
is DR.. Cook.
81 have known also the other fell
low-known him to depart from truth
by large margins"
After meeting of the executive
committee of the Arctic Club of
America tonight, Dr. r. o. Stebbins,
chairman, gave the clubs attitude on
the colloquy.
'"The Arctic Club of America he
said, has nothing to do with the col
loquy over the discovery of the pole.
All that the Arctic Club recognizes is
that DR.. Cook is the discoverer of the
pole and that Peary reached there.
Our only desire is to honor the dis
coverer. Neither side has p1 owed it's
case to America, but since the Danish
government has recognized DR.. Cook,
we feel that the burden of proof now
falls on his opponents.
''The Arctic Club" Mr.. Stehhins
continued, will present to DR., Cook
| a gold medal, two and half inches
in diameter, showing in bas relief DR..
Cook standing on the top of the globe
| waving the Stars and Stripes
Preparation to honor DR.. Cook are
more advanced than those for Peary,
because the latter's arrival is more
distant and his plans as yet more neb-
ulous. Singing societies of Brooklyn
have arranged to go down the harbor
4 in a chartered steamer to welcome
| their hero with lyric praise Bells
4 will ring and whistles blow from fac

he also proved that he was the one
prosecuted. The Widows hogs would
not let him alone. She was beaten
again. and this time stout pen was
built, and the hogs were shut up. The
farmers had of course taken sides,
hibited a mean. and unneighborly spirit
and others that the widow had been
derelict in not mending her fences, and
there were much talk and discussion

principals met on the highway or at

mind the widow. except for her blaz-

That pen held the hogs for a long
six weeks, but hogpens have their
weak points. and patience and perse-
verance will seek them out. The hot
sun warped a board and made an open
ing, and the industrious swine enlarged
it until one night they all passed out
and headed straight for the next farm.
They fetched up among the cabbages,
rots, and during the long hours of
darkness they ran riot. They were
missed from the pen early next morn
ing. and the widow sat down on the
doorstep and cried. She cried because
she was vexed. and she cried because
she was woman. Every minute she
expected to hear the crack of CHS
holm's rifle. and she fully realized that
any further appeal to the law would
be wasted She was veXed at the

tears were still falling when the new
neighbor stood before her and bowed

PROTEST AGAINST GLAssON.
Fifth District Republicans Aroused
Over Taft's Action.

Durham, N. c., Sept. 14.-President
Taft's appointment of Prof. Glasson
of the chair of economics at Trinity
College as census supervisor in the
Fifth district, has aroused a bitter
protest from the Republican organi-
cation.
This district was represented in the
last Congress by a Democrat, the
present Governor Kitchin. At the last
election John Motley Morehead, Re-
publican, was chosen to succeed him.
Naturally the Republicans expected
the President to hand out the census
plum to an organization man.
Professor Glasson, who got the
place, is said to be a Republican, but
Secretary Bramham, of the Republi-
can county executive committee,
voiced the sentiment of the organiza-
ton, it is said, in the following state
ment tonight:
eve were voting the Republican
ticket when it was considered a dis
grace to do SO. Yet Massachusetts
mugwump gets the plum which
worthy men worked hard for. Two
doses of political ipecac were handed
the Republicans of this section re-
Gently. One the appointment of Judge
Connor. a Democrat. to a Republican
position, disgusted me completely
with the so-called organization and
the powers that be. The party and
its principles are right, but it's lead
ers are simply HE'LL
Judge Connor, a prominent Demo-
crat, was appointed by President Taft
to the Federal bench for the Eastern
North Carolina circuit in line with
his avowed policy of choosing for the
judiciary the best man available ir-
respective of politics.
The dissatisfied Republicans de-
clared tonight that they would ask
Congressman Morehead to endeavor
to have the appointment of Professor
Glasson held up.

BRYAN ON THE TARIFF
Talks Democracy and Scores
WOIators OF Party
Pledges.
In View of Actions of Democrats on
Tariff, Believes 1t Necessary
That Platform Be Specific
and Emphatic.

Dallas, Tex, Sept. 14.-Denouncing
Elm who would violate party pledge
ratified by the voters of his party as
an embezzler of power, William j.
Bryan outlined his views as to the
tariff before a large audience here
today.
Mr. Bryan's subject was 'Democ-
racy and the Tariff" He emphasized
the necessity of senators and con-
sTessmen being bound by platforms,
saying he would later suggest form
for such a plank.
eff all of the Democrats in the
Senate and House had voted against
every proposed increase in the tariff,
and for every proposed decrease, we
might have made our fight next year
upon the party's record without max
ing a specific declaration of items of
schedules" said Mr.. Bryan, "but in
view of the fact that Democrats in
both the Senate and House differed
as to the Interpretation of the Demo-
cratic platform, and as to the rates
that should be imposed under the va
rious schedules, I believe that it is
necessary for our platform to be spe-
ciflc and emphatic
IF we expect to secure control of
Congress, we must convince the pub
lie that we will, if entrusted with the
! power, favor material reductions I'm
less our candidates for Congress can
agree before the election they are not
likely to agree after the election. If
each Democratic candidate will state
his position, the voters can select a
representative who will give express
sion to their views, and I am much
more anxious that the representative
shall reflect the wishes of his con-
stituents than 1 am that be shall
agree with my opinion"
Mr.. Bryan concluded his address
with an extended argument in favor
of free raw material.

Yet Frank Blaine Has Been Discharg.

Washington, d. c., Sept. 15.-With
'22-calibre bullet imbedded in the
centre of his brain, fired there with
suicidal intent more than two weeks
ago Frank Blaine left the Casualty
Hospital in this city yesterday, dis
charged as cured.
He said he suffered no discomfort
other than pains in the head and neck
and he talked nationally at all times.
The surgeons at the hospital, who
have been observing Blaine very
closely, said they detected no ill eff

it is their belief that he will, not suf-
fer from it in future years.
An X-ray photograph Of the young
mans head showed the bullet imbed-
ded in the centre of his brain.

MOVING GRAIN CROP.
Rapidly Taking Up the Surplus Cars.
Crop Satisfactory.

New York, Sept. 15.-J. T. Harahan,
president of the Illinois Central Rail-

said that the grain movemen! is rap

equipment, and that in the last week
there were 1000 more cars in use
than in the first week in June.
The grain crops in his territory
were most satisfactory, he said. and
with another week of propitious
weather he believed good corn crop
was assured. The poor cotton crop
which has been reported from Texas
aad other points, is not so bad in his
roads territory. President Harahan
said, and in fact he found on his re-

zoo valleys that the staple promised 9
normal yield.
