ONCE MORE ON NATIVE SOIL
DR.. Cook, In Cheerful Mood, Reaches
New York.

New York, Dec 23.-The steamer
George Washington, which arrived
from Bremen, Southampton and
Cherbourg. brought DR.. f. A. Cook,
the discredited north pole discover
er. Dr.. Cook said newspaper com
ments on his recent magazine article
which reached him in Lcndon did
not express matters clearly.
Or. Cook looks thinner, though
younger than when he arrived in
New York from the north. He ap-
pears cheerful. His skin is smooth
and clear and free from the tanned
and nard look he had at that time.
He was dressed in dark clothes, dark
felt hat, black tie and wore a mus.
tach.
The passengers on board soon be-
came aware of his presence, although
he was somewhat retiring, but
throughout the voyage he was re
ceived cordially Dr. Cook said
while | came on board the steamer
prepared to receive some annoyance
or harsh expression of opinion, am
pleased to say that there was not a
single instance of the kind and | was
treated with great kindness"

County's Chief Industries.
West Union, o., Dec. 23.-With
23S Adams county voters already dis
franchised and fined on their pleas
of guilty to "boodling" In connection
with the November election, the
fourth special grand Jury which has
been summoned within a month is
still grinding out indictments, and 1t
is declared that close to one-third of
the county vote of about 5000 will
be disfranchised.
The grand jury returned 121 addi-
tional indictments, according to the
report made by Judge A. Y. Blair of
Portsmouth. The men indicted are
expected to follow the lead of 23S
previously indicted and enter pleas
Of guilty.
That $40 was the average price
paid for votes was stated in the con-
fession Of Jesse Grooms, a voter who
was disfranchised for FIVE years and
fvop n cfcnopdod tvorLhoueo con
tence. All persons -estifying in con-
nection with the election probe have
been promised immunity from prose-
cution under the state law.
1t is said only the smaller fry have
been reached thus far, but that the
prosecution of these will be the basis
of prosecution of the men higher up
later on.
The terms of disfranchisement
vary from five to seven years. The
guilty men are members of both the
Republican and Democratic parties
and, according to their admission,
the corrupting of ballots was done
by both parties.
Adams county, which is usually
Democratic by a small majority,
went Republican in 1908, but this
year the Democrats won by large
majority. 1t is said by old residents
of Adams county that the selling Of
votes has been comr in every
election in recent years, but this is
the first time serious attention has
been paid to it.

STANDARD TO SPEND
MILLIONS IN OHIO
Will Develop Oil Field From
Lake to River.

Pittsburg, Dec. 23.-The Standard
OIL company is planning to spend
millions of dollars in developing new
oil and gas territory in Ohio. Be
tween 100000 and 100000 acres are
under lease by the Standard and in
dependent producers. The territory
extends over II counties, from Lo'
rain on the north to Hooking county
on the south. Oil development has
been going on for the last two years
in some of the counties, and the In
dications are that the new field will
prove rich.
Oil men have held that there was
an arch dividing the Trenton rock
and the Clinton sand formations In
Ohio, which extended from Sandusky
on Lake Erie to Cincinnati, and as the
production formation dips about 20
feet to the mile from the northerly
portion of the state, 1t was consid-
cred impractical to search for oil in
the counties mentioned. Some inex-
perienced farmers at Bremen started
drilling two years ago and brought in
a good well, showing the folly OF the
opinions held by oil men.
knowledge of the strike was kept
secret for a while and other wells
were Put down and, good producers
being obtained, the Standard stepped
in and bought the production OF
these wells and covered by the dis
trict with leases, and the independ
ents, led by Roswell ID. Crick OF
Pittsburg, are also covering the terri
tory with leases.

again.
1t is stated officially that the rail
road will be reopened II it is neces-
sary to station a soldier every 10
