Evening capital news. (Boise, Idaho) 1901-1927, 1912-11-17

September. 1909, the world was
startled to read in the newspapers that
Frederick A. Cook had returned from
the Arctic, having reached the north
pole after months of intense suffering,
and after hundreds had tried for many,
many years and failed. Great univer-
stiles We'd with each other to do him
honor. Kings and princes paid hom-
age at his court. He was carried about
on a great wave of enthusiasm in both
Europe and America. On this side of
the Atlantic thousands OF people paid
large gate receipts to hear him tell of
that far away land of mystery, where
the SHOWS and ice never melt, and
where the sun, even during its long
day, never breaks the spell of the
Frost King. Then as suddenly came a
counter-claim. Another appropriated
the hard earned honors, and strove to
throw a discredit upon the claims of
DR.. Cook. Bitterly the attacks came,
and in most persistent manner.
Through all the personal attacks the
great explorer maintained a calm and
gracious manner, never attacking, but
only suffering in silence. Then, worn

strain, and to escape the ordeals, to
obtain rest and quiet in which to pre-

He catches them in the act Of burg

has them securely in his power, much
to the admiration of the principal.
Later he gets the cook to spill grease
into the stove and fill the house with
smoke, shout fire and create panic.
She does as she is told. Miss Fulton
rushes into the kitchen. and all the
girls flee from the building. The pro-

and rescues her from what seems to
be certain death by suffocation. That's

action was hailed as a sign Of surren-

heaped every ignominy and shame
upon him. He was lied about, mis-
quoted and misrepresented, until. at

back to substantiate his claims before
the American public.

man the benefit of doubt and to lis

Straight Talk

This is the way the Austin Reveille
lines up the Senatorial and Congress
sional fight in this State:
II you vote for Taft. vote also for
Massey and Roberts.
II you vote for Wilson. vote also for
Pittman and Tallman.
II you vote for Roosevelt. vote also
for Summerfeld and Springmeyer.
These votes line You up consistently
ON the great National issues involved
In this campaign. These issues are
greater than Taft, Wilson and Roose-
Welt combined; greater than all our
candidates for the Senate and Congress.
Lower down on the ticket. State and
county, you have ample way to assert
your sublime independence and indif-
ference to party lines.
