The EskimOs Say Cook Did Reach thu
North Pole.

A dispatch from Copenhagen. Den
mark. says the Danish government
steamer Hans Egede arrived there on
Thursday with the news that John R
Bradley, the financial hacker Of Dr..
Frederick A. Cooks North Polar ex,
petition, was on his way to Etah t.
secure the much talked Of records
and instruments which Cook has sale
that he left at that Esquimo settle
ment northeast of Greenland. The
captain of the steamer thinks thai
Cook is with Bradley but gives 10
particular reason for this belief.
The Hans Egede, which Is the yes
sci upon which the explorer travelled
to civilization, fell in with a yacht
at Godhaven, Greenland. and in the
course of exchanges between the
members learned that Bradley was
aboard the other craft.
The Polar hunt promoter admit
ted his identity and explained that
he was bound for Etah to recover
whatever had been left there by DR..
Cook. He refused, however, to either
deny of confirm the report that he
was accompanied by the explorer.
The government vessel also bring<
the information that two missionaries
who are working among the Esqui.
mos, who accompanied Cook on his
expedition say that these Eskimos
insist that the doctor reached the
North Pole, as he claims, prior to its
discovery by Commander Peary.

WANTS TO MAKE TERMS
TAFT HEARS THE VOICE OF THE
PEOPLE AND OBEYS.

With the Result of Recent Election
Before Him He Decides to Invite
All to Pie Counters.
President Taft has decided that
hereafter he will recognize no dis
tinction as between Republican sena-
tors and representatives, whether
"progressives' or regulars" in the
matter Of federal patronage. In 9TH
er words, he will treat them all alike
in this respect.
The presidents views in regard -
the matter we're made known in a let
ter made public Thursday by Charles
D. Norton. his secretary, addressed
20 a Republican leader in Iowa, whose
name is not disclosed.
He" says Secretary Norton, re-
ferring to President Taft. will now

congressional districts and States and
follow the recommendations made by
Republican congressman and sena-
tors of whatever shade Of political
opinion, only requiring that the mel
recommended shall he good men, Tic
most competent and the best ftteG
for the particular Office"
The letter in part follows:
"While Republican legislation pen
ding in congress was opposed by GER
tian Republicans, the president felt
it to be his duty to the party and &c
the country to withhold federal pa.
tronage from certain senator's and
congressman who seemed to be In
opposition to the administrations eff.
forts to carry out the promises of the
party platform.
THAT attitude, however, ended
with the primary elections and nom,
mating conventions which have been
held, and in which the voters have
had opportunity to declare themsel'
yes. The people have spoken as the
party faces the fall elections; the
question must be settled by Republic
cans of every shade Of opinion
whether the differences of the last
session shall be p%erpetuated OF shall,
be forgotten.

Of federal patronage has been great

to grant it has probably been more
useful to the men affected than the
appointments would have been"

Two White Men.

Decoyed to a lonely spot near
Glendale, 6 miles from Spartanburg,
by a call for his professional services,
DR.. William G.. Sexton, of that city,
was waylaid Wednesday morning by
two white men who overpowered
him, rendered him unconscious Win

According to his statement he had
intended to give the money to a
building contractor in payment for
repairs to his house, which was al
most destroyed by fire three months
ago. DR.. Sexton had a narrow es-
cape from losing his life on that &C.
casion. He lay unconscious for nine
hours. When he recovered con-
seriousness he called to a passing ne
gro for assistance. He was carried
to Spartanburg and taken home. He
was still dazed, but managed to tell
a connected story and to give a fair
ly good description of one OF his
assailants.

GAINED A SENATOR
FAR REACHING EFFECT OF THE
VICTORY IN MAINE.
Democrats Elect All State Officers,
Two Congressman and a Majority
of the Legislature.

Two congressman and a Majority
of the Legislature.
The Democratic victory in Maine
is more sweeping in its effect than
it was thought at first. and both
Democratic and Republican leaders in
that State are surprised at its COM
pleteness. In fact it came to the
Republicans like a stroke of lightn-
ing out Of a clear sky.
Complete returns of the vote for
senators and representatives gave
the Democrats substantial majorities
IN both branches of the Maine legis-
lature which at the beginning Of the
new year will elect a United States
senator to succeed Eugene Hale, a
secretary of state, state treasurer,
alto, ney general and commissioner
of agriculture.
The new legislature progably will
be called upon to carry out the decla-
ration Of the Democratic party plat
forms of recent years and resubmit
to the people the liquor prohibitory
amendment to the constitution and
to repeal the Sturgis liquor law en-
forcement act.
According to the unofficial COM
plete returns the Legislature will
have a Democratic majority Of SO on
Joint ballot. The senate will consist
of 81 Democrats and 10 Republicans,
while the house will have 88 Dem
ocrats and SO Republican members.
The last legislature consisted of 1872
Republicans and 60 Democrats, the
Republicans having a majority OF Is
in the senate and At in the house.
The total vote Of the leading par
ties in Mondays election was 1885,
556. Four years ago it was $780,
80. The vote this year was near,
" 5000 more than it was four years
ago.. OF the vote in Mondays cleo
ton, Plaisted, the Democratic candi-
date for Governor, received 1854,
and Fernalds, the Republican candi-
Gate for Governor, received 64,912
votes. This gives Plaisted a major
ity of 1872.
The first congressional district
was carried by the Republicans by
900 majority. The second and third
by the Democrats by 1000 and 5000
respectively. The fourth districts
is so close that it will take the Off
cial count to determine whether II
went for the Democratic or Republi-
IAN candidate. The Republicans
ere completely d~umfounded by the
result.

VICTORY IN MAINE.

"Really?'
There was no statement he cared
to make at the moment, he said.
Judge Parker recently returned
from Maine where he made three
campaign speeches.
Judge Parker later consented to
supplement- his first ejaculation.
The Democratic party in Maine,
he said, las to its State ticket, made
its contest on the ground that e
| Republican party has been wastclul
and ~extravagant in its conduct Of the
affairs of the State.
"Its leaders and its press present
ed no new issues and made no de-
magogic appeals, but pleaded simply
for the abolition Of pictorial and
corrupt bosses and for an honest,
Economical. and just administration
of the affairs Of the State.
THE Democratic party, in other
words, deserved to win and the
| country is to be congratulated that
1t has won"
When the results from Maine were
made known to Lloyd G, Griscom'
president of the New York Republi-
can county committee, he issued
this advice:
"All the more important that New
| York should not 60 Democratic. The
| returns from Maine are the best OF
| evidence to show the people OF this
| State that a change is necessary
Norman E. Mack of Buffalo, chair
man Of the Democratic national COM
mittee, when he heard the latest re-
turns from the Maine elections, said:
"All that I al say now Is that
the expressions Of sentiment which
have been coming into us from all
over the country indicated the pos
| sibility of such a result. But, OF
course, it is almost too good to be
true.
What does it indicate? You
know you don't need to ask me that
it indicates a sweeping Democrat
ic victory from coast to coast.
"Chairman Griscom was talking
with me in Buffalo onyl last week af-
ter returning from the Pacific and he
told me then the sentiment he found
there was the same which victorious
" manifested itself In Maine.
