DLANS for the exploration OF

Thomas Hubbard In 1906, are
rapidly nearing completion when the
Macmillan expedition sails in July 1t
will carry the most complete and mod

The object of the expedition is to
discover and explore the unknown
area north Of the present map of the
arctic regions and. IL conditions are IA

cap.
When the expedition was first plan
ned Donald y. Macmillan was a CO.
leader with the late George Borup.
whose death by drowning about a year
ago Off Crescent Beach, Conn. caused
a temporary delay of the starting of
the party.
According to Peary, who was accom-.

rup on his dash to the north pole. "Of
unexplored regions in the north there
are remaining but two Of first impor-

and the area represented by the large
blank space on the map bounded by
Bering strait. the pole, the western
border of the Arctic archipelago and

PARCELS POST HITS EXPRESS
COMPANIES HARD.

Express companies of the country
have been hit hard by the operation
of the new parcel post system, &C
cOrding to statements submitted to
the interstate commerce commission
today by counsel for the companies
in their final arguments against the
reduction in express rates proposed
oy the commission. 1t was declared
that the companies have suffered a
loss approximating % per cent in
small package business-a loss which
amounts to about 6 per cent of the
gross revenue of the companies.
Walker D. Hines asserted that for
the five companies he represented
the Adams, American, United States,
Southern and Wells Fargo-application
of the proposed rates to present bust
ness would reduce revenues about
S26, 100000 a year, or 5.S5 cents on
every dollars worth of business done.
Such a reduction in revenues, he said,
would be absolutely destructive.
He maintained also that the formu-
la made rates would disturb seriously
business conditions in large centers
such as New York and Chicago, by
forcing a readjustment of competitive
business conditions.
B. F. Fairchild, of the New York
Chamber of Commerce, for the ex-
press shippers, attacked Mr.. Hines
argument as purely theoretical and
hypothetical" and insisted that the
proposed rates would yield an am
pie revenue to the express companies
He maintained also that the present
allowances made by the express CON-
panies to the railroads for tranSpor-
tation service were excessive.

MANY NEWSPAPER MEN IN LIST
OF APPoINTEES.

! The newspaper men are coming
into their own, politically, in Kansas.
Governor Hodges has appointed fiji
teen of them to important administra-
tive positions, and the simple reason
he gives for this unusual recognition
of the craft is that he wants men
and women of efficiency, reliability
and courage to run things. He has
BOXED oyer Kansas from one end to
the other and arrived at the conclu-
sion that editors, reporters and writ
ers generally are the leaders in all
commendable movement. Therefore,
Cha salary list Of Kansas will bear
some mild resemblance to a newspap-
er guide for the next two years.
Governor Hodges has done well,
not only for the press, but for him
eeH, in honoring these Kansas
editors. For he picked them mainly
On merit and with little regard to
politics or factional opinions. There
aCe avowed Progressives, regular Re-
publicans and Democrats on the list.
and every one is a booster and thor
oughly qualified for the work as
sighed to him.
II have tried to make my appoint
ments on the. basis of efficiency"
said Governor Hodges. "In doing this
! have picked many newspaper men.
They are the chaps who know and re
fleet public sentiment. They do things
In their communities. They are eff
Gent in their work. They know more
or less about public work and what
the public demands. So l have picked

are direct appointees of the governor.

LOOK AHEADI

Thirty thousand carloads of hay
were marketed through Kansas City
last year. Fine business, wasn't it?
The more business the better. Let's
sell forty thousand carloads this year.
That is the way the average man
looks at this branch Of trade.
But now comes President Waters
at the luncheon of the City Club and
the ways and means committee of tie
commercial club and calls attention
to the fact that every ton of hay car
ries with it about 81 worth of soil ma
terial. In sending out of the country
thirty thousand carloads of hay, the
city was shipping away 2 IL millions
dollars worth of the capital of the
country-making it that much poorer
for the future. If the hay could have
been fed on the farm the 2 IL million
dollars would have been returned to
the soil to maintain its fertility.
Now this is a phase of the problem
that the average person overlooks.
Each man is so busy with his own
immediate future, each city is so alb
sorbed in its own trade record from
year to year, that people fail to look
ahead and see what is best for the
welfare of the whole country.
1t is well that the presiden' of the
Kansas State Agricultural college is
calling attention to the need for this
long look ahead. If it isn't taken, fu-
ture prosperity may be sacrificed for
a small. immediate profit. Kansas
City's prosperity is bound up in the
prosperity of the Southwest. If this
wonderful valley should mine out it's
soil and diminish its fertility, Kansas
City would be the first to suffer.
The problem of the wise develop.
ment of the country in the interest
Of all is one that should engage the
cooperation of the people Of this
whole region. No town or city it suf
ficient unto itself. The prosperity Of
of one is bound up with the prosper
ity of all.-The Kansas City Star.
