STEAM ROLLER" METHODS WILL
 NOT CRUSH CRITICISM.

In making his annual report about ten days ago, Postmaster General Hitchcock called attention to the de felt in the postal department and suggested that this be remedied by raising the postal rates on magazine mau matter. The Postmaster Gen erd stated that while this class Of mail provides a revenue of one cent a pound, the cost to the government in handling and transportation averag es 9.2S cents a pound"
 That there was an ulterior motive behind this sudden suggestion of econ Omy was obvious and Saturday it was made apparent. According to press dispatches President Taft. in reply ing to the request of the big eastern magazine publishers that the present rate be retained, stated that unless the magazines in question stopped their criticism of the Taft administra. ton the postal rates for magazines would certainly be raised,
 It is difficult to credit that the President has committed himself to such a fatuous statement. Doubtless he has the power to make a raise in the postal rates of magazines, but he and his advisors will soon find that such course will cause such a storm Of opposition that they will not dare to avail themselves of this meaNs of revenge and coercion.
 Freedom of speech is guaranteed under the constitution. On the other hand both the government and indiv- iduals are amply protected by the Ii. bel laws against undue license on the part of the press. The people of the United States are magazine readers and as experience has taught them that the magazines are the bulwark Of the independent press they will not tamely submit to the "steam rol- Ter" methods suggested by Hitchcock and Taft.
 or course. from an administration standpoint 1t would be desirable to cOerce the magazines from publishing criticism of Taft and his administra- ton. Some Of the magazines have denounced the conduct of the Depart ment of the Interior. Others have demanded the removal of Cannon as Speaker Of the House. Others have caustically commented on the tariff betrayal. and these same things have been glazed over by the administra. ton newspapers.
 Not only is Taft's threat foolish and unfair, but, we believe. his main arguments that magazines are re- spouslble for the postal deficit are false and superficial.
 The express companies carry maga- zine mail and divide fat dividends each year. Magazine mail Is handled in bulk and it creats much first class correspondence that goes far towards Offsetting it's cost. Why should the magazines be singled out and the newspapers be exempt?
 We believe that investigation will show the postal deficit Is caused pri- marily by politics within the depart ment, a lax business management and the fact that the package express com panies by means of a lobby at the capital, are allowed to skim off the richest cream of what should be ex- clusively government business.
 Taft will find that his threats will have no effect and that he has com mitted a colossal blunder, both from a standpoint of business and ethics.

CHAPTER I'LL
That morning they had no breakfast
Pemmican and salt beef were both
gone. Not q crumb OF biscuit remain
ed. They were obliged to content
themselves with half a cup OF hot cof-
fee and start off again.
They scarcely went three miles be-
fore they were compelled to give up
the day. They had no supper but cof-
fee. and the dogs were so ravenous
that they were almost devouring each
other.
Another day-thirty -four hours since
they had tasted food. Yet they contin-
ued their march, sustained by their SUI
perhuman energy of purpose. They
had to push the sledge themselves, for
the dogs could no longer draw 1t.
Then Johnson drew haggard-eyed
and wild. He caught the doctors arm
that night.

hoarsely.
"A bear following us?"
Yes. for the last two days"
Have you seen him?"
Yes. about a mile leeward."

ball to send after himl" said the doc
tor.
He is reckoning on a good feed OF
human fieshl" cried johnson, his brain
giving way. He is sure enough OF his
meal" continued the poor fellow. He
must be hungry. and do not see why
we should keep him waiting"
johnson, calm yourself"
mo. Mr.. Clawbonny. since we must
die. why prolong the suffering OF the
poor beast? He is famished like our
selves. There are no seals for him to

"Friendsl" exclaimed Hatteras; you
see ] was right Our salvation lies in
deed in the north, always In the north.
We shall be saved"
But the joyous. exulting words had
hardly escaped his lipsh before a sud-
den thought made his countenance
change.
The serpent of jealousy had stung
him, for his stranger was an American,
and he had reached three degrees near
er the pole than the Inflated Forward.
By further patient questioning after
rest. the doctor soon ascertained that
the Porpoise was a three mast Ameri-
can ship. from New York, wrecked on
the ice. with provisions and combusti-
Giles In abundance on board.
Altamont and his crew had left her
two months previously, taking the long
boat with them on a sledge. They in
tended to get to Smiths sound and
reach some whaler that would take
them back to America; but one after
another succumbed TO fatigue and III
ness. till only Altamont remained alive.
why had the Porpoise come SO far
north7" Hatteras asked.
She was irresistibly driven there By
the Ice" Altamont replied, feebly.
Hatteras looked grim but said moth
ing more.
WELL" said the doctor, 1T strikes
me that, instead OF trying to get TO
Baffins bay. our best plan would be TO
go In search Of the Porpoise. It's q
third nearer. and stocked with every
thing necessary for winter quarters"
Il see no other course open TO us."
replied Hatteras.
IF we start tomorrow" said the
doctor, I'VE must reach the Porpoise bv
the 18th OF March. unless we mean 10
die OF starvation.
No time was lost in getting ready 10
start. A couch was laid on the sledge
for the American. The provisions did
not add much weight. and the wood
was piled up on top.
The doctor calculated with three
quarter rations TO each man and full
iations 10 the dogs, they might hold
out for three weeks.
BY In the afternoon everything was
ready for the start
IL WAS almost dark, Tor. though the
sun had reappeared above the horizon
