Next Years HeeklinR.

Members of the present House who
mediate standing for reelection would do
well to read carefully and consider the
report of the Jerome meeting in New
York the other night. 1t was full of GIN
ger and instruction
Mr.. Jerome was elected district attor-
ney on very definite promises. The situa-
ton in New York, as the result of the
performances of certain predatory inter-
ests, was deplorable. A correction of the
evils was demanded. and the people trust
ing in Mr.. Jerome turned to him to per-
form the service. He knew what was
expected and In his canvass gave assur-
ance that in office he would not disap-
point those who had put him there.
But that was the very thing he did. In
very short time after he had entered
upon his new term complaint arose as to
his course. and it has steadily. grown. He
is accused of having been tender to-
! ward rich transgressors. and severe to-
ward the poor ones.
At the meeting in question Mr.. Jerome
met his accusers. or such Of them as ac-
cepted his Invitation. He solicited inter
rogations as to his record in office, and
replied to a good many. Some he slighted.
Opinions differ as to the result. Mr.. Je-
rome's friends assert that he came out
of the ordeal In excellent shape. His enc
mics who tackled him there assert the
contrary. But nobody denies that the
evening possessed entertainment for both
sides
Last year the situation as to the tariff
was challenged by both parties. The re-
publicans conceded that revision was nee
essary, and promised that if the job was
intrusted to them they would execute 1t
in the interests of the people. The dem
| ocrats asserted that the main trouble was
with the principle upon which the Ding
ley law rested-protection-an promised
that II the job was intrusted to them they
would write law fashioned on the reve-
nue. principle.
The republicans won, and a popular
| charge now is that the revision in proc
.ess is not in the spirit of last years
promises. The democrats lost. but, to the
surprise of many. their leaders in Con-
gress instead of voting in conformity
with the party record and promises. are
voting for protection. The situation In
both parties Is confused. and complaints
as to both are numerous and emphatic.
Hecking is going to be the rule in next
years congressional campaigns. Mr. Je-
rome's experience with his Cooper Union
audience will be that Of many republican
and democratic representatives who are
now. and will be then under charges of
a failure to live up to campaign prom
ises And they would do well to prepare
for the time OF their lives on the stump.

VARIOUS VERSES
ON TIMELY TOPICS
REFLECTIONS ON The DANDELION

The dandelion now observe.
The freshest plant OF all.
IL has the most exalted nerve,
The most colossal gall.
"Get all you can. runs its creed.
..And give a blame sight less:
These are the simple rules that lead
To glittering success
When other flowers have closed their eyes
The dandelion labors.
And everlastingly II tries
To overcome its neighbors.
The blue grass and the clover dee
Before its competition:
II has no social sympathy
To check In fierce ambition.
Although its harm is something great
Its worthlessness sublime.
II gets a lot Of real estate
By roofing all the time.
So nerve and front and diligence
Will surely take US far.
II makes no special difference
How no account We are.

Through park and lane she drives her team

tie bay marked "Eid's Fiord" on Sver
drup's chart; then southwest to Hell's
Gate and Simmons peninsula.
Here for the first time during the
entire journey, except as already
noted Off Cape Thomas II. Hubbard,
they encountered open water. On this
point the boys were clear, emphatic,
and unshakable They spent good
deal of time in this region, and finally
abandoned their dogs and one sledge,
took to their boat. crossed Hell's Gate
to North Kent, up into Norfolk Inlet,
then back along the north coast of
Colin Archer Peninsula to Cape Vera,
where they obtained fresh elder duck
eggs. Here they cut the remaining
sledge off, that is shortened it, as it
was awkward to transport with the
boat, and near here they killed wal
rus.
The statement in regard to the fresh
elder duck eggs permits the approx
mate determination of the date at this
time as about the first of July. (This
statement also serves, il indeed any
thing more than the inherent straight
forwardness and detail of their nara
tive were needed, to substantiate the
| accuracy and truthfulness of the boys
statement. This location Of Cape Vera
is mentioned in Sverdrup's narrative
as the place where during his stay in
! that region he obtained elder duck
| eggs.)
From Cape Vera they went on down
into the southwest angle of Jones
Sound, where they killed seal;
thence east along the south coast Of
the sound, killing three bears at the
point noted on the map, to the PENN
sula known as Cape Sparbo on the
map, about midway on the south side
of Jones Sound. Here they killed
some musk-oxen and, continuing east
killed four more at the place indi.
Gated on the chart, and were finally
stopped by the pack ice at the mouth
of Jones Sound. From here they
turned back to Cape Sparbo, where
they wintered.
After the sun returned in 1909 they
started, pushing their sledge, across
Jones Sound to Cape Tennyson; thence
along the coast to Clarence Head
(passing inside of two small islands
not shown on the chart, but drawn or
it by the boys), where they killed 6
bear; thence across the broad blight
in the coast to Cadogan Fiord; thence
around Cape Isabella and up to Com
mander Peary's old house in Payer
Harbor near Cape Sabine, where the!
found seal cached for them by Pan
ikpah, I-took-a-shoo's father. From
here they crossed Smith Sound on tn,
ice, arriving at Anoratok.
