amount OF money will be reguir-
ed to successfully handle the
business; for immense quaint
ties of fuel must be purchased,
the best OF skilled superintend-
ency and citizen foremen must
be obtained, large stocks of pipe
must be kept on hand to supply
the demand, and the plant must
be kept in constant operation
even when the demand for pipe
runs low. In other words, the
state must not be forced either
to buy or sell on just any kind
OF market. Some say that half a
million will be required, while
others think that as much as a
million will be needed, to obtain
the best results; but all agree
that with the money back of it,
the iron industry can be made to
to pay nice profit.
The freight on the coke, now
the main item of cost could be
cut to one-third by extending
the state railroad some ten miles
to the Trinity river, and having
the state to operate it's own coal
barges to the coast.
1t might be thought too great
"a risk to attempt to compete with
the steel trust in the sale Of pipe,
knowing that if it could the trust
would probably sell below the
cost of production to run the
state out of business. But there
are laws, or such laws could be
passed, making sales in this
state at other or lower prices
than in other states prima facie
evidence Of trust and the steel
trust would hardly risk being
excluded from the state. The
state would know the cost Of ma
king pig iron and pipe and could
easily prove when such products
were being sold below cost to
strangle competition.
Former losses from the oper
alton of the furnace and pipe
foundry can easily be explained,
When one understands the mat
ter, there is wonder that they
should have been expected to
pay. The industry was never
operated more than q third of its
time, and then in small way.
There were frequent changes in
the plans, one administration
tearing up and destroying what
another had had done. Add
tons and improvements were
made from time TO time, the orig
inal furnace and equipments be-
ing entirely too small. Changes
were made from coke to charcoal
as a fuel and from charcoal back
to coke, at large expense. The
railroad account was mixed up
with the furnace account, and
fuel charged to the furnace was
used by the railroad to make as
good showing as possible for the
road. When the men were need
ed to fill orders for pig iron and
pipe they were often taken from
the furnace and sent to the fields
to save the cotton and cane crops
or sent out to fill labor contracts.
Changes OF management were
frequent and there was incom.
potency at times, in financial SUI
pervision as well as superintend-
ing the work of the men. There
was an utter lack Of a fixed sys-
TEN, such as would mean loss to
any business; and this should
not argue that it can not be made
to pay.
Three things are now open to
the state: list, it can allow It's
railroad and iron plant with their
$3.50, 600 valuation to remain idle
and go to waste. End, it can. lease

heit) throughout the Winter and our
excellent ventilation system gave us
all the air we wanted.
In direct communication with the
hut and dug-out on the Barrier were
workshops, packing-rooms, cellars for
provisions, coal, wood, and oil, a plain
bath, a steam bath, and o~bservatories.
Thus we had everything within doors
if the weather should be too cold and
stormy.
The sun left us on the 22d of April
and did not return until four months
later. The Winter was spent in chang
ing our whole outfit, which on the de-
pot trips was found to be too clumsy
and solid for the smooth surface of
the Barrier. Besides this, as much
scientific work as possible was done,
and some astonishing meteorological
observations were taken.
Open Water All Winter.
There was very little snow, and
there was open water close by
throughout the Winter. For the same
reason higher temperature had been
expected, but it remained very low.
In five months there were observed
temperatures between minus so and so
degrees Celsius, (58 and 76 degrees be-
low zero ~Fahrenheit), the lowest tenn
perature on the 18th of August being
minus SO degrees Celsius. 1t was
then calm. On the 1st of August the
temperature was minus IS degrees
Celsius, and there were 6 meters of
wind. The mean temperature for the
year was minus 26 degrees Celsius
GAS below zero ~Fahrenheit.)
/ had expected hurricane after hur-
ricane, but l observed only two mod
crate storms and many excellent au-
roras-austrails in all directions.
The sanitary conditions were of the
best all the Winter and when the sun
returned on the oath of August he met
the men sound in mind and body
ready to set about the task that had
to be solved.
Already, the day before, we had
brought u sledges to the starting
place for our march toward the south.
Only in the beginning of September
did the temperature rise to such an
extent that there was any question of
setting out.
First Start for the Pole.
On the Sth of September eight men.
with seven sledges, ninety dogs, and
provisions for four months started.
The ground was perfect. The temper
ature was not bad. The next day it
appeared that we had started too ear
ly, as the temperature of the follow
ing days fell and was kept steady be-
tween minus SO and 80 Celsius (5S de-
grees and rs degrees) below Fahren-
heit zero. Personally we did not suf-
fer at all from this cold. Our good
furs protected us. But with our dogs
1t was a different matter. 1t could
easily be seen that they shrunk from
day to day, and we understood pretty
soon that they could not stand the
long run to our depot at 80 degrees
south.
We agreed on returning and to wait
for the arrival of Spring. The provi-
slons were cached, and off we went

Especial Trenton Correspondence
Trenton.-On charges made and
prosecuted by the Grievance Commit
tee of the Camden Bar Association, of
which he was a member, Spencer
Simpson, who has offices in the Cam
den Masonic Temple, was disbarred
by the Supreme Court. Testimony on
the charges was taken in secret last
summer and in the decision of the
Court, filed here, it is set forth that in
more than one case Simpson obtained
money from clients for which no ade-
quate service was rendered. In de-
creeing that Simpson was not a fit
person to practice at the New Jersey
bar, the Supreme Court dwelt on his
conduct az counsel for Mrs. Edna May
Glass, who sought a divorce from her
husband, Warren Glass. 1t was charg-
ed that, although he accepted a re:lin-
er o 1855 and informed Mrs. Glass that
he had instituted proceedings in the
Court of Chancery, he did not, as a
matter Of fact, ven bring suit. To a
reporter, who carried the first news
of his disbarment to Simpson, the at
torney said that after he had been re-
tanned by Mrs. Glass, six years ago, to
bring her suit for divorce, he learned
that she had married again. He de-
clared he told her that, before she
would have any standing in the Court
of Chancery it would be necessary for
her to leave her second husband and
that she would have to satisfy the
Court that she had made full atone
ment for her error. Simpson averred
that he did not advise Mrs. Glass that
suit had been instituted and said he
heard nothing further of the case I'M
til disbarment proceedings were insti-
tuted last summer. Asserting that he
stood ready to bring the divorce suit
just as soon as the conditions he i'm
posed were complied with, the disbar-
red attorney, who announced his in
tention to appeal from the action of
the Supreme Court, attributed his
plight to prejudice by his fellow-attor-
neys because he is an Englishman.

The Pole Attained.

That day was a beautiful one-a
light breeze from southeast, the tenn
p%erature minus % Celsius, (9.4 de-
grees below zero F%ahrenheit,) and the
ground and sledging were perfect.
The day went along as usual, and at
3 P. NJ, we made a halt.
According to our reckoning we had
reached our destination. All of us
gathered around the colors-a beauti-
full silk fag-all hands taking hold of
it and planting it.
The vast plateau ON which the pole
is standing got the name of the "King
Haakon VII. Plateau" 1t is a vast
plain, alike in all directions; mile
after mile during the night we circled
around the camp.
In the fine weather we spent the fol-
lowing day taking a series of observa-
tons from 6 A. NJ, to Z P. NJ. The re-
suit gave US SO degrees 55 minutes.
In order to observe the pole as close
as possible we travelled, as near south
as possible, the remaining 9 kilo-
meters.
On Dec. Is there we camped. 1t
was an excellent opportunity There
was a brilliant sun. Four of us took
observations every hour OF the days
t~wenty-four hours. The exact result
VIII be the matter Of a professional
private report.
This much is certain-that we OBJ
served the pole as close as it is in hui
man power to do it with the instru-
ments we had-a sextant and an arti-
fetal horizon.
On Dec. II everything was in order
on the spot. We fastened to the
ground a little tent we had brought
along, a Norwegian flag. and the Fran
pendant on the top of it.
The Norwegian home at the South
Pole was called "Polheim."
The distance from our Winter quar-
ters to the pole was about 1,400 kilo-
meters. The average march a day was
25 kilometers.
The Return Journey.
We started on the return trip on the
18th of December. Unusually favora-
BILE weather made our way home con
siderably easier than the journey to
the pole. We arrived at our Winter
quarters, "Framheim," on the 25th of
January, 1912, with two sledges and
eleven dogs, all we'll.
The daily average speed on the re
turn trip was So ~kilometers; the low

Among the results are the determi-
nation of the extent and character of

LIBRARIANS HELP UPLlFT.

Raise Standards of People.
By eliminating the chasm that now
divides literature and the masses Of
the great cities by bringing the mass
es to the public Libraries, the librari-
n of the country can play a great
part in uplifting the standards Of
the common people of America, ac-
cording to William Harvey Allen, Phi.

dressed the joint convention of the
Pennsylvania Library Club and the
New Jersey Library Association at
Atlantic City. The Library's Oppor-
tunity to Further Efficient Govern
ment'' was the New Workers. topic,
and Doctor Allen declared that the
cities and the nation will have respon-
siye and efficient government when
the people demand and insist upon it.
Miss Elizabeth H. Wesson, of Orange,
president of the State Library Associa-
ton, presided at this session Of the
convention, of which the address of
Doctor Allen was the feature. He be-
lieves that the number of libraries
will be doubled and trebled to meet
the demands Of the people for more
knowledge and a broader view. DR..
Ernest Cushing Richardson, librarian
of Princeton University, presided at
the closing session of the convention.
The gathering, delegates declared,
vas the most successful in years. The
rapid increase in the number of wo-
men librarians was accounted for by
the fact that there are a number of
recognized training schools for librari-
ans which are annually turning out
classes of young women admirably fit
ted for the work. Doctor Nolan, presi-
dent of the Pennsylvania Library
Club, declared that 10 or Is years ago
librarians were compelled to procure
all their training in the school of hard
experience.

Briefly, the bill provides that it shall
be a misdemeanor for any person to
have game of any kind in his posses

ure, which will be vigorously opposed
by Assemblymen Godfrey and Rich
