The County Printing.

The County Printing.
The county commissio toner's acted
wisely and for the best interests of
the county il letting the county print
ing for the year 1910. The Union
was awarded the printing at full legal
rates, and the official printing will
appear in three other papers of the
county as well-the, Milaca Times,
the #Onamia Lake Breeze and the
Wahkon Enterprise-thus giving the
widest possible publicity, as the law
CONTEMPT to all official printing.
OF course, the I'm % n divides with
It's three contemp oraries and, as a
matter Of fact, it will receive Jess than
halflegal rates for doing the work.
But the newspapers and people of the
censfal and northern part of the
county are entitled to consideration,
hence we say, the commissioners acted
wisely and for the best interests of
the taxpayers of the county. The law
never contemplated that important
official publications should be buried
in little obscure sheets, and for that
reason the county commissioners are
given large discretionary powers in
letting county printing. In fact, if
they do their duty, they are obliged to
take into consideration, the character
and circulation of the several news
papers and award the printing to the
newspaper that will give the official
notices the greatest publicity. Other
wise the publication of official notices
would be farce.
Here is the bid of the U n which
was accepted by the county COM
missioners:
81 will print and publish in the
Princeton Union, in a workman-like
manner and in strict conformity with
the Jaws governing the same, the de-
linquent tax list at Is cents per
description, the financial statement,
county commissioners proceedings,
treasurer's notices, auditors notices,
school petitions and ditch petitions,
ETC., at such rates as are allowed by
law; and will also guarantee to pub
lish the same in the Mile Laos
County Times, the Mile Laos Lake
Breeze and the Wahkon Enterprise
without any additional expense to the
county. I deem it a good policy that
all official printing should be given
the widest publicity possible, a policy
that, in my judgment, the great
majority Of the taxpayers of the
county will approve of.

NEW YORK, Nov. 30.-Dr. Frederick

article which viii be published in Hamp-
toms magazine, confesses that he does
not know whether he reached the north
pole or not
DIR. Cook. who has been in hiding for
over a year, has Informed the editors
of the magazine publishing his story
that he will return to the United States
with his wife and children December
% in order to spend Christmas here.
DR.. Cook, in his story, deals with the
psych ology of his adventure, and says.
DOESN'T YET KNOW.
Did I get to the north pole? Per-
haps 1 made mistake in thinking that
did. Perhaps did not make mis-
take. After mature thought 1 confess
that I do not know absolutely whether
1 reached the pole or not. This may
come as an amazing statement, but I
am willing to startle the world, If by
so doing, 1 can get an opportunity TO
present my case. BY my case 1 mean
not my case as a geographical discoV-
cred. but my case as a man. Much as
the attainment of the north pole once
meant to me the sympathy and conf
dence of my fellow-man mean more.
IF, after reading my story, you say
Cook is sincere and honest; half crazed
believed he reached the pole; he is not
q faker,' then L shall be satisfied
DR.. Cook tells the story of his life and
pictures what he calls the overpower-
ing ambition for exploration that beset
him until it finally eliminated IN his
effort to reach the pole.
WAS HALF MAD.
DIR. Cook declares at the time he con-
WINGED himself that he had discovered
the pole, he was half mad. He spent
two years in his quest and during That
time endured hunger and privation that
he saws would ambulance any mind
The explorer states that It would be
impossible for any man to demonstrate
beyond question that he had been to the
north pole. He characterized the re-
gion as a region of insanity, where one
cannot believe the evidences gathered
by ones own eyes. He says that he
had always looked upon the discovery
of the pole las an achievement for his
own personal satisfaction, for the salts
faction of a craving and desire that was
greater than any other factor in his
life. When he found how tremendous
a sensation his statement that he had
attained the pole created, he was over
come with bewilderment.

South Cardinals splendid record in corn
