'"The navigation of the narrow and

four ships prior to the Roosevelt have
succeeded in accomplishing it. Of
these four ships one, the Polaris, was
lost. Three, the Alert, the Discovery
and the Proteus, made the voyage up
and back in safety, but one Of these, the
Proteus, was lost in an attempt to re-
peat the dash. The Roosevelt had on
the expedition Of 1866 made the voy-
age up and back, though she was bad
ly smashed on the return.

stating to the legislators in advance
that he called them together for the
express purpose of acting on good
roads amendment to the constitution,
and politely but firmly informing
them that any other measure would
have to be passed over his veto. If
such an amendment was enacted it
could be submitted to the voters at
the ensuing election and if adopted
the one-mill tax could be extended in
1911. Otherwise such an amendment
cannot be enacted until the regular
session of 1911, and could not be vot-
ed upon before November 1912. A de-
lay of two years means a great loss
to the state-delays the cause of good
roads for two years.
Future generations will cherish the
memory of the men who are instru-
mental in having incorporated in the
fundamental law Of our state a Sec
ton that will give our beloved Min
nesota system of public highways
unsurpassed by that of any state in
the Union.
In conclusion, a great deal has
been said and, written anent state de-
velopment. The alpha and omega of
state development is GOOD ROADS.

Editorial Comment
wAl ON rvBxaCuLoszs.

Yesterday in several Of the churches
Of tho Queen City, sermons that were
sost practical and most timely, were
delivered by the pastors, who took
for their texts the subject Of "Tuber.
cuiosis.'
II 10 with pleasure that IL can be
stated that each pastor, who dis
soursed on this all.important subject,
handled the matter in an able, in.
structive manner which showed that
he was thoroughly .conversapt with
much Of the data, concernig this most
dangerous Of all maladies--the dread.
ed "white plague" Each also point.
cd out the need Of greatest precau.
ton being taken against contracting
this disease.
II was clearly pointed out, however,
that Notwithstanding the terrifying
inroads that consumption is making
yearly ON the American race that
nevertheless with proper sanitary
measures, with the exercise Of care
and the breathing of the tonic and
hcalth.giving fresh air for which Ari.
zona is famed, great strides can be
made toward Graduating the '"white
plague"
The sermons delivered Sunday from
the pulpits Of Prescott and from the
country Mt large are but n portion
Of the program Of the education
which forms most material portion
Of the campaign against the great
plague, which takes its victims from
all walks of life and carries them
slowly but surely to the grave.
Considering the dreadful nature Of
the plague, il is astonishing that 80
large a number Of persons have no
dread Of IL and neglect the simplest
precautions against its spread.
IL the precautions which have been
urged by physicians were taken, and
most OF them are natural and not bur.
densome, the ravages Of the disease
in few years would be greatly
checked. Va
. 1t In our business, 20 take such
measures AS we may to keep the dis.
ease within the narrowest bounds and
by such precautions AZ we learn, to
restrict further those bounds.
1t is TO be hoped that the educa.
tional campaign against consumption
will be continued with more vigor
than ever before. The fight Is yet
young but much good has been nc.
eomplished. May the battle con.
