ruE ESKIMO DOG oIscovERERs.
BY EDWIN A..NYE.

TUE ESklN0 DOG OlSCOVERERS.
If every dog has his day" then the
day Of north pole discovery is certain
~ the day Of the dog.
Newspapers and periodicals and sci
entihc bodies and lecture platforlns
and moving pictures are engaged IN
the controversy which promises to last
all winter or longer between the parti-
sans Of Feary and Of Cook.
Mutual' friends of the two explorers
are almost ut dagger's point. and the
people are divided into two great hos.
tile camps over the question:
Did Cook and his two EskimOs or
did Peary aud his negro first run up
the flag in the airy regions Of the
frozen country Of the north pole?
1t is not altogether unlikely that we
may really never know who is entitled
to the honor of being the first discCv
erer. Aud In whatsoever favor science
eventually may decide or if it decide
In favor Of both Ieary and Cook there
will always be those who are uncon-
WINGED.
However that may be. large share
uf the credit In any event must be Civ
en- to the Eskimo dog. Without tne
dog the pole would still be undiscOv-
cred.
And II auy should be dned and ap
plauded 1t is the stanch dog who diu
the real work OF the journeys, toiling
over the Icy wastes. enduring heavy
burdens without complaint or striking
for higher wages aud shorter hours OF
labor.
Why not stop the controversy be-
tween Cook and i'eary and their fol-
lowers long enough to give royal ban
auet to the thirty dogs Of Peary
and the eighteen dogs of Cook?
And among the toasts there would
be one to be drunk in silence and
standing to the dead-to the dogs who
gave up their flesh to feed the starv-
Ing men.
Give the Eskimo dog bis due. With
out that stout servitor and faithful
four legged companion the stars and
stripes would not be floating In the re-
gton Of the pole
What fine helper to man the dog
has always been.
In the first glimpse We get Of the
man OF the stone age and his cave his
faithful dog bears him company, and
now In the very latest glimpse Of
mans great triumph the dog is there.
Indeed. 1t may be said. some of those
Eskimo dogs-ff either or both the
brave Americans reached the pole
were there first.
The dogs have no scientific data or
daily journals to submit to a candid
world to prove they were first on the
ground-or the ice-but 1t stands to
reason that some of the eighteen Of
Cooks or the thirty-six of peary's
shaggy dogs first straddled the nine.

Prynns the Pamphleteer.

Even If we do return to the days OF
the pamphlet we are hardly likely tc
find emulators of the prolific pamphlet
eers of an earlier day. There was. fol
instance, William Prynne, whose eff
forts cost him both his ears and q
branding on the cheek as seditious
libeler. In all he wrote some 200 books
and pamphlets-"A Cage For Long
Haired Rattleheads" is an example OF
their titles-and. according to Woods
estimate. produced a sheet for every
day Of his life. His manner of study,
too, would hardly be followed today,
for he worked on a roll Of bread and

While our language does not contain
such long words as are found in some
other tongues nor SO many words Of
unusual length, still we have several
that are aWkwardly long for conversa-
tional purposes. We have "philopU-
senitiveness. with twenty letters; 'in-
terconyertibilities. with twenty-one;
"intercommunicabilites," with twenty
two; "disproportionablen with
tWenty-three, and "transsubstantiation
alists' and "contradistinguishablity,"
each containing tWenty-four letters. An
effective little word is "synacategore-
matte as it manages to compress
eight syllables into seventeen letters

nine letters, and there are four ex-
amples: "spotched," "squelched," +"

The highest purpose Of inteIlec-

his own inner self; to render our

inability to enter fully into the feel
