DR.. COOK IS A FAKER.
SAYS SENATOR DIXON
Montana Statesman Considers Explorers Claims Monu
mental Fraud-Tells Of Meeting Between Doctor
and Guides BaniIl and Prince

Senator Joseph Dixon of Montana Is
the arctic expert OF the upper chamber.
lie knows all about the Cook Peary con
trOversy, understands the Mt. Nc
Kinley controversy. and declares his un-
qualified conclusion that cook Is "a
monumental faksr."
II seems that when DIT. Cook went
out 10 Montana 10 meet Barril and
Prince his Mt Mckinley guides. and
face them and their charges in their
own home, senator Dixon was required
10 act as moderator at the town meet
ing which sat on the matter at HamiI-
ton. That experience convinced the
Senator that Cook was fraud.
He had told down East" said the
Senator today. that ne was going 10
face and denounce the men who charged
him with not getting 20 the mountains
top. Well he appeared TO make his
speech. and the house was jammed
What he really die was 20 deliver his
regular North Pole lecture and then
20 devote aJOut two dozen words 10 "a
reference 20 the controversy about
Mt. Mckinley. and TO say that he re-
gre tied it. nut that anyhow Mt McKiu-
lev wasn't the pole.
That didn't satisfy the audience, and
when the doctor left the stage they IN
sisted that he face Barril and Prince.
y 40 were I'm the audience. / was rather
forced into the situation. and went to
Cook, urging him 90 20 back on the
stage.
