Capt. Robert Scott, leader of the
British expedition TO the South Pole
has sailed from London to join his
ship, which started some time ago
The captain expects to reach the pole
in December, 1911, and in view of
Pearys success in the north thous-
ands win look forward to an early
solution Of the southern polar mys-
terry. While leadership has counted,
as n matter OF course, the improve
ment in supplies for extended days in
regions where only meat can be had
has been largely responsible for po-
lar victories.

1t remains for a Chicago woman TO
make her place in politics, as one
of her sisters has made her place in
educational matters. Miss Mary
Mcdowell of the University Of Chi
cago Settlement has accepted the
post of member from the fourth sem
atorial district Of the Advisory Coun-
ell OF the Legislative Voters League,
and IL will be her duty TO stir up
women's influence to secure a class
of candidates which will better rep
resent the district in the Legislature.
womans influence Is available in
politics, even where her vote is de-
barred, and nowhere can it be util-
ICED to greater profit than in the nom
mating process.

The Direct Primary

The primary election law has been
tried in New Hampshire and has
proved a success. 1t worked so sue.
cessfully that the only ones who now
condemn it are the political bosses,
who were overthrow by 1t.
In every respect it brought about
just what was claimed for ii. In 1908
IA Republican candidate for governor
received forty thousand five hundred
eighty-one votes; at the recent pri-
mary over thirty thousand votes were
cast, or about seventy-fve per cent
of the vote cast by the party in 1906.
In other words, three-fourths of the
Republican voters of the state went
to the polls and made their prefer
ence known.
Under the old caucus sytem, the
expenses of candidates for governor
have many times exceeded fiftS
thousand dollars and the money so
expended has been used for the pur-
chase outright of delegates TO the
conventions. Under the cd system
It was a campaign Of corruption. I'm
der the direct primary, one candidate
spent little over one thousand dol
lars and the other candidate a little
less than four thousand. Never in
the history of the present generation
has so little money been expended In
New Hampshire to secure a governor
ship nomination as In the present
campaign. Under the new system
the campaign has been one Of educa-
ton.
For the first time in the history OF
the Republican party OF that state
the people have expressed their pre-
ferences. Heretofore all OF the ma
chinery Of the party has been In the
hands Of political bosses, most OF
whom were under retainers to a bis
railroad corporation. They manipu
lated the voters. nominated their owl
men for executive offices and com
pletely controlled the administration
of the state affairs. The primar,
election law has put an end TO tina
condition.
Every one OF the counties OF IN,
state gave a majority In favor OF tn,
progressive candidate. and the pros
