AMUNDSEN TO DRIFT
5 YEARS IN ARCTIC
MESSAGE FROM NORTH TELLS
OF PARTY'S HEROIC BAT
TIES WITH ICE PACKS.

LONDON-Ronald Amundsen, the
Norwegian artic explorer, has not
abandoned his expedition, but after
his impending visit to Nome, Alas
ka. he intends to enter the ice pack
around Wrangel island, off the north
ern coast of eastern Siberia, and
thence drift across the Polar sea, ac-
cording to a report received from
Christiania, Norway.
A message dated from the Maude,
somewhere in the Arctic, the first
received from the explorer since he
began his tour of exploration, be-
gins with the departure of the Maude
from the vicinity of Cape Chelyus-
kin. 1t came by Anadir and Nome.
The message was undated, but prob
ABLY was written about Christmas
time.
Battle Their Way Through Ice.
eve left our winter place." says
Amundsen's message, "Sept. IL,
1919. after having mined and forced
our way through $500 yards of I'M
broken ice from two to three yards
thick. We were detained the next
day by heavy pack ice at St. Sam
ueIs islands, but got through on
the 14th and continued on our way
to the east, being again detained the
next day, as the ice lay close to st.
Peters islands and did not assist any
in our passage outside.
eve had to force our way through
an unknown strait between the is
lands and the mainland, where the
newly formed ice offered consider
able resistance. We succeeded,
after vigorous battle, in penetrat-
ing this intricate and shallow pas
sage, showing in some places no more
than one and one-half feet of water
under our keel.
? much ice was found in the Nor
denskjold sea, but it offered small
hindrance. We passed through the
strait of Laptec, separating the inner
Serbian islands from the mainland,
on the 18th. The sea to the east
of the islands seemed free from ice,
and we shaped our course from jean
cite island, but were stopped the next
morning by an impenetrable pack on
| 73 parallel.
Drift on Wrong Direction.
eve made fast to the edge to
commence our drift but found short
| ly afterward by close examination
that the ice pack was in drift to-
ward the south at the rate of one
one one-half knots an hour This
would not pay, SO we cast loose from
the ice after very careful inspec-
ton which left us no hope whatsO-
ever of penetrating it, and shaped
our course to the southeast follow
ing the ice.

GOV. COOPER WANTS
STATE RIGHTS SAVED
HE WOULD REPEAL LEGISLA-
TON WHICH ENCROACHES
UPON RIGHTS OF STATES.

WASHINGTON.-Repeal of the
fourteenth and fifteenth amendment
to the constitution and "all others
enacted since which encroach upon
the rights of states" was advocated
tonight by Governor Robert A.
Cooper, of South Carolina, speaking
before the annual dinner of the Pal
metto State Society.
81 do not approve of any further
surrender of state sovereignty to
the federal government" declared
the governor. 81 am convinced after
a few more years of experiments and
disasters we will go back to the gov
eminent established by the constltu-
ton"
The governor voiced his opposition
to cash bonus for soldiers, declar-
ing it would be an insult to service
men to attempt to compensate
them for their services to the coun-
try. He said the South Carolina
branch of the American Legion had
taken a similar stand "Their serv-
ices cannot be valued in dollars and
cents he added. He favored liber-
al provision, however, for the wound
ed and the needy.
Extending special privileges to
either capital or labor, Governor
Cooper declared, sis to forfeit the
confidence of capital or labor in the
integrity of the government. They
know that in doing so those in au-
thority have some Interior purpose
They know also that this attitude is
liable to be reversed and therefore
they believe in getting while the get
ting is good"

Help Save the Flowers

Many of the citizens of Idaho
Springs are complaining about the
destruction of the flowers grown
in their own yards. 1t seems that
the flowers are pulled and thrown
aside, which indicates that it is
done maliciously. 1t is presumed
that it is done by boys just for the
fun of doing something they
shouldn't, but the boys may be
blamed unjustly.
However, there should be some
method by which this could be
stopped, for the flowers in the
pretty lawns of Idaho Springs
help to make the town beautiful.
Whoever it is making the practice
of pulling the flowers out of other
peoples lawns should take pride
enough in the appearance of the
city to discontinue the practice.
Another thing which is annoy
ing those interested in the beauti-
full is the extensive pulling of the
umbine-our state flower. The
Columbine is beautiful, but it will
soon become extinct in this section
of the country if it is continuously
pulled and not allowed to go to
seed.
Let's all do our part towards
keeping the Colum bine flower.
