The Christening of the Arizona

Champagne has generally been used in the christening of bateships. But that is a matter always left to the authorities of the whose name s given the battleship and, some cases, in late years the authorities have deferred to a strong temperance sentiment within and have dispensed with wine, using some non- alcoholic fluid We suppose that Governor Hunt Nin select other fluid than wine for the christening of the Arizona June unless he arouse a strong protest. Beside if wine used it would have to be secured somewhere in the open market outside of Arizona, for the boot eegers who may be operating here will probably have champagne in stock. It is too fussy and noisy for quiet and transformations business.
 We suppose that adrrirer Mr Bryan in reference him. will propose bottle his tayor- Ie beverage grape juice, for the christening, but believe it is the sentiment a large majority of American citizens that grape juice has already too much diluted naval policy. The significance of the staining of the bow the with grape Juice would not be lost, and batteship would be brought into ridcue before she is set afloat

Advisory or Effective2

This is not purely academic discussion the manner in which the will of the people expressed at referendum election shall be carried out. But We do not understand upon what theory the mission regards the of the people upon a re- feired matter only advisory when the state con- stitution and the charter regard it as the crownng act in all legislation except emergency legislation
 The suggestion made in the commission Friday that now, that the people voted for the repeal of certain ordinances, it the duty the commission, that is, the moral duty, act on the vote last Tuesday and repeal ordinances which objectionable to the people.
 There is need of repeating any law or ord- nance against which the people have offered an ex- pIession. since it any time in effect and could not have become operative until major of the electors voting thereon should declare in favor
 When the commission has passed ordinance without emergency clause, cannot in any cir oumstances become operative until thirty days have elapsed. Up to that time protest may be lodged against it's passage, and. in the language of the charter, the ordinance shall be suspended go- ing into operation"
 That status of the ordinance exists a refer endum election has been held unless in the mean time the commission in the of Ordinance No. G. repeals the ordinance and thus removes the objection of the protestants If the commission does not do the ordinance, in the language of the charter, shall not go into effect become opera tive unless majority of the qualified electors voting the shall in favor thereof"
 Inasmuch as, in the ordinances in question: l majority of the electors voting thereon having failed to vote in favor of them they not in effect and have not become operative, that nothing in the premises for the commission do except tho leen. The referendum gives to people the word. It closes the incident.

action by it is needed, probably nanner in which the referred ordinances were pre- sented to the people. Shall they be repealed?' it Vas asked, without any authority under the charter for making such inquiry. Shall they become operative?" would have conformed to the meaning and the language of the charter. But, si the peo- pie having failed in favor of the ordinances, they must remain imperative
 Is it the view of the commission that 1t has power, if it chooses. aside the will of the peo lae as pronounced q referendum election? Or, is it the belief of the commission that there iireguarity in it's proceedings previous to the refer endum election that rendered the popular expression void?

trip. The season was too far advanced
however, and the explorers reluctant
ly steered for Herschel Island. The
Polar Bear was at Herschel Island
when the power schooner Ruby. which
had been trying for two years to reach
Herschel Island. arrived there from
Port Clarence, with supplies for the
government and the Hudson Bay Com
pany.
Immediately upon arriving at Her
S hel Island. Stefansson, with tremen-
do:s energy, began preparations for
continuance of hts expedition. He pur-
chased the Polar Bear for $4,000 and
bought also the power boat Gladiator
a small vessel engaged In trading along
the coast. After fully equipping these
vessels, Stefansson sailed with then
for Banks Land where he probably il
now.
Banks Land to Form Base.
1t is the intention Of Stefansson to
establish base on Banks Land and
continue his exploration from that
point The time Of the return of the
expedition can not be foretold. as Stef-
ansson will continue until he ascer-
tains the limits Of the new land he has
discovered.
with characteristic modesty Stef-
ansson told Captain Cottle that. except
during a few days before reaching
Banks Land. he and his two compan
ions suffered no particular hardships
altho on very short rations. During
the entire seven months on the Ice
they always had enough food to keep
hunger away. They never missed a
meal during the whole journey. They
lived seven months on food designed
to last three months.
Southern Party in Good Health.
The southern party. Of which Ru
dolph Anderson, of Iowa, is the com
mander, is in good health. Daniel Blue,
pilot OF the power boat Alaska. died in
early spring. Blue was one of the
original MANNERS Of the expedition.
Before departing from Herschel Is
land with the Polar Bear and Glad
iator Stefansson established commun
ication with the southern party and
also sent a man east with the power
boat Mary Sachs to continue explora-
ton eastward and establish supply
bases for the southern party.
Jack Hadley. member OF the Kar
lux party, rescued from Wrangell
Island, last year. by King and Winge,
has again joined Stefansson.

Ottawa, Sept. 17.-First definite It'd
ings that the world has received from
Vilhjalmar Stefansson. the Arctic ex-
plorer for year and hall. were re-
ceived today by the naval department,
which sent him and his companions
on their perilous trip to the frozen
north Advices from the explorer were
meager.
Stefansson's advices came from
Nome, Alaska, in the form of a mes
sage from himself. The message fol-
lows:
AS unavoidable delays threatened.

her on terms similar to Karluk. En-
gagged Hoff, engineer Of schooner Ruby.

gagged Ave extra helpers for southern
parts who have ample outfit for one
year and engaged Polar Bear for two
years. Plan continue northern ex-
ploration to 146 west and 50 north, II
northerly course is secured"
Writes Under Date Of Aug. 81,
The message from Stefansson was
to the national department and was
dated from Baillie Island. Aug. 81, via
Nome. Sept. 16. and stated he was to
continue his northern exploration.
Stefanssor.'s determination to pro-
ceed with his explorations. despite the
loss of the Karluk. shows the caliber
Of the man. and this news was re-
cetved with qualification by officers
here.
The Polar Bear. engaged by him in
place Of the Karluk. is a well-known
and tried Arctic vessel, and he seems
to have gathered supplies for further
stay of two years in the Arctic zone.
Bafllie Islands are east Of the mouth
Of the Mackenzie river and lie In
latitude 70 north, longitude 127 west
The coast Of Baillie Islands, which
are separated from Cape Bathurst by
a narrow channel is so flat that the
few boats that have reached there
have had to anchor nearly mile from
the beach. Captain Pullen camped on
the larger island in 1850. trying to get
around Capc Bathurst. he was unable
to do so on account of the ice which
was piled up on the islands and in the
channel.

Such an arrangement, which is in

Nome. Alaska, Sept 17.-The power
schooner Ruby arrived from Herschel
Island, on the Arctic coast west of the
mouth Of the Mackenzie river, yester-
day afternoon, with news that Vilh1al-
mar Stefansson, the Canadian explorer,
who with two companions, Storker
Storkerson and Ole Anderson, the lat
ter Of Forest City. Iowa, set out from
Martin Point, Alaska, March %, 1914,
over the frozen Polar ocean to search
for supposed new lands in the Beaufort
sea, is not only alive and well, but has
accomplished every purpose for which
tiie ila1arilOus journey was under taken.
Stefansson succeeded beyond all ex-
pectations In his exploration. He dis
covered new land southwest Of ST. Pat
rick's land. He is now on Banks Land
Quitting for explorations to the west
to ascertain the full extent of the
new land.
Capt S. f. Cottle, master Of the
Ruby says that Stefansson is now on
Banks Land. east of the Mackenzie,
outf1tting for the continuance of ex-
plorations to the westward, to ascer-
tain the extent of the new land he dis
covered southeast Of Prince Patrick
land Stefanssoa discovered contin-
uance Of the continental shelf sew
eral degrees west Of Bank Land, and
even determined its south limits but
was unable to continue his explora-
tions to the south and west.
Explores New Found Land.
Stefansson told Captain Cottle he
and his hardy companions set their
faces to the north, but after continu-
ing their journey ninety days they de-
cided to continue their journey on
land. They landed and the power boat
Mary Sachs. Of the Stefansson expe-
dition, was put in winter quarters. The
three men outfitted for another three
months trip. They again went upon
the ice. going north and west and dis
covering the continental shelf.
Stefansson spent some time explor-
ing his new find, but at length, owing
to scarcity OF provisions, was COM
PEELED to turn back The men had
been on the ice seven months. They
subsisted on the most meager rations
but kept moving day after day. The
dogs were almost famished. Finally
tho party arrived at Bank Land thor
oughly worn out. For several months
they had been on scanty rations, trav-
cling almost continuously.

Stefansson and his companions made
their way from Banks Land. which is
uninhabited, to Baillie Island. which Is
visited by whalers. Captain Louis
