| SIR SANFORD.
Howard Palmer Scales Ice Peak,
1854 Feet High.
HIGHEST IN THE SELK|RKS.
Nearly a Hundred Attempts Hava
Boon Made In tho Last Few Years
All Ice and Snow Work, With Great
T Danger From High Temperature.

Howard Palmer, secretary of the
American Alpine club, has succeeded in
climbing Mount Sir Sandford, the high
est point in the Selkirks. Mr.. Palmer
made the ascent of the mountain
which is II 1874 feet high, and is prac
tically one continuous wall Of ice, on
June "a, in company with T. w. D
,HolWay.
No less than eight separate attempts
to scale the Icy Businesses Of Sir Sand
ford have been made during the last
half dozen years, not counting the sue.
cessful expedition. No other peak in
the Canadian Rockies has such rec.
ord. Only five of the expeditions even
reached the base Of the mountain, and
aside from the present expedition, only
one, that Of Mr.. Culver of Winnipeg
In 1911, actually set foot on the peak
itself.
Although it is among the highest OF
the worlds mountains, it is the glacier
covering its surface which makes
climbing difficult, and in the present
instance the danger was increased ten
fold by the high temperature, which
melted the snow and produced slush
AS matter Of comparison, it may be
stated that Mount Washington, in the
White mountains, is 6,293 feet, and
Pixies peak, Hill feet. OF course
there are points in the Himalayas and
the Andes which nearly double these
figures.

Swiss guides, Mr.. Palmer left Golden
B. c., on June II, proceeding down the
Columbia river by canoe, as on his
previous trip last season, when he
made extensive explorations in the dis
trict and published a monograph on
the subject. They reached the base OF
the Sir Sanford glacier on June %
after three hard days on Gold river
and Palmer creek. The temperature
was unusually high for the region-84
degrees F. In the shade and IA in the
sun.
The weather otherwise was fine. Sill
Sanford was unusually bare Of snow
disclosing the ice everywhere below
10000 feet. This made the previously
tried routes inaccessible and forced the
expedition into a path beneath hang
ing glaciers on the westerly side Of thu
peak, which so far has been the only
side Offering the slightest chance of al
ascent.
Mr. Palmer writes that the ascen
was much like that of the Grand Cour
balm in the Alps. The climb consisted
entirely Of snow and ice work. Th
party, leaving behind the two pack
ers, left camp, $500 feet high and tw'
miles from the base Of the mountain

~HAT the Lodge resolution de-
handing the exclusion of any
corporation controlled by for
eign government from acquisl'
ton Of any territory on the American
continents the possession Of which
might menace the safety of the Unit
ed States amounts to the enunciation
of a new foreign policy is just dawn
ing upon the minds Of officials in
Washington.
Instead Of being a new expression OF
the Monroe doctrine it is, and was so
intended to be, the declaration Of
new doctrine in the international rela'
tons of the United States.
1t was learned that President Taft
had opportunity to have the new poll
cy, If adopted, bear his name and to
take rank with that of the president
who first promulgated to the world the
Monroe doctrine. Senators, it Is un-
derstood, urged the president to &C.
cept this opportunity and let the dec
laration embodied in the Lodge reso-
luton 60 before the nation bearing
his (the president's) name.
Mr.. Taft decided, however, that he
would leave the matter in the hands o.
Senator Lodge, who has for long
time been plainly moving toward the
enunciation of such "hands off, poll
cy regarding the American continents
as he has now asked the senate to in
dOrse.

Where Resolution Differs.

The policy presaged by the Lodge
doctrine in that it commits the Unit
ed States henceforth to prohibit acts
by foreign corporations or associations
which heretofore only foreign nations
have been barred from doing. The
Monroe doctrine binds this govern.
ment to view as an unfriendly act the
acquisition by any nation outside the
western hemisphere of territory in the
American continents or the colonial
ton Of these continents by any nation
beyond the seas.
The Lodge resolution, on the other
hand, would make it an unfriendly acl
even for any corporation in any meas
ure controlled by a nation foreign to
the Americas to acquire any harbor or
other territory so situated that the oc.
cupation of it might threaten the safety
or communications Of the United
States.
Arising out Of the possibility Of the
shores Of Magdalena bay falling into
the hands Of a syndicate controlled by
the Japanese government, the Lodge
declaration goes much further than
this specific case and is so sweeping as
very materially to influence the course
of events in the region of the Panama
canal.
In the opinion Of diplomats it will
cause individual widespread discussion

to prove to the reader that the Barred r ock

fact, that for hardness, size. and general
utility the Barred Rock is the monorch of

that my long experience of the past Seven
teen years in the breeding of this variety
enables me to put on the market strain
of Barred Rocks unexcellei for hardness,
size aud egg production. In the first place.
Iraise nothing but Barred Plymouth Rocks.
and again, my breeding pens are made up
each season of male and female birds of the
best type. And this, with my past
experience and success in the poultry bust
ness, puts me in position to offer you the
very best of choice eggs for sittingpurposes.
