Hoover has demonstrNted to thes country his capacity for accomplish- ment- There were not few who looked upon him as presidential timber and thsfs will be nothing but satisfaction felt that the prospects are that he will be in the service of his country as the head of the department of commerce.
 Thus the country awaits with deep h. terest his decision. There are thoee whS are credited by reports to be urging him to- decline the appointment. What view Mir. Hoover will take will not be kept under cover long. There can be no ques- tion but what there is an opportunity un- der prevailing conditions for valiant ser vice to be rendered at the head ef the department of commerce and MT.

THE LEWIS AND CLARK ExPEDI.
 TON


 As early as 17ss Thomas Jefferson proposed to George Rogers Clark, the surveyor r-explorer, that he lead an ex- petition flor exploring the country from the Mississippi to California;, but nothing came of it. No further effort was made until early in the past century. when Congress approved the plan and voted an appropriation.
 Toe command this expedition Jeffer- son appointed Capt. Meriwether Lewis, who was then his private secretary. While Lewis was not especially adapt ed to such work, he was well &C., quainted with the Indians. To fam iliarize himself with the technical languages of the natural sciences, and the making of the necessary 3s- tronomical observations, he went te | Philadelphia and placed himself under the instruction Of distinguished pre- fessors.
 Lewis chose as his companion fer l the work, Capt. William 4lrk, the younger brother of George Rogers I Clark, who had accomplished much in his explorations of the Middle | West. With a large number of sol diers Lewis and Clark started Wes, | eastern bank of the Mississippi dis l ciplining the men and making the necessary preparations for an earls 1 departure in the spring.
 On the 14th of May, 1894, the little | expedition began its journey. They made their way slowly up the muddy turbulent Missouri, and eventually en- | tered the country of the PaWnees and Omahas The red men wege informed of the transfer of the country to the uited States and were given flags United States and were given flags the Great Father" at Washington. | They started their journey in a nerthWesterly direction. and finally reached the mouth of the Heart River near the present city of Bismarck where they went into camp for tho winter.
 On April ek the following year they once again started on their ex. plorihg tour. The party nof consisted of thirty-two persons, and included an Indian woman named Sacagawea Although she carried an infant only few months old she made the journey 1 to the Pacific and proved more helpful I than did her husband.
 The party finally reached the mouth of the Yellowstone and on the 18th e1 April Capt. Lewis caught a distan glimpse of the Rocky Mountains. Or 1 they went, dt SOHie points DeiHS as sisted by the Indians, and at etheri finding them most hostile.
