gle and that none of the men in his
department was involved.
Under the caucus system the pre-
cinct committeeman is Judge. jury
and executioner said Nichols 'He
is supposed 10 receive the ballots and
when the booths are closed count
them and then issue credentials TO the
deiegaIes representing the faction
which received the majority of the bal
lots. He certiies 10 the credentials
and they are signed by one or two
witnesses and with those credentials
the delegates go TO the convention.
Now, in some instances, II was decid-
ed before the caucuses that the pre-
cinct committeeman should act as
delegate. He would have his creden-
tials all made out in advance OF the
caucus. Then he could run the caucus

SCOTT THE CONQUEROR

Wife of Explorer Is Confident
He Is Discoverer of
Pole

LONDON, April 3.-Mrs. h. +.
Scott. wife OF the explorer, was SUI
premely confident TO-DAY that her hus-
band will yet be recognized as the
real conqueror OF the Antarctic. de-
spite the tact that his Norwegian
rival. Capt. Amundsen, was first TO
reach the great nail"
~ am not worried about the cap
tain's safety" she said. "On the other
hand, | am very glad that he has
availed himself of the opportunity 10
remain in the south until the objects
of his expedition, which were or
scientific research, are accomplished.
| am sure that he got to the pole in
January. although there is no chance
that We VIII get any further news
from him this year. And when all or
the data that he gathered is compiled
II will be found that the cause or
modern science has been greatly aid
ed and that the mere fact OF being
first TO the pole was OF little conse-
quence.
Il want to say that there never was
the slightest intention on the part or
my husband of racing for the pole.
He went south with a scientific ex-
petition which had for its object the
clearing up OF the unknown conditions
in the Antarctic"
