The transportation problem has
become the most important and at
times the most acute problem be-
fore the American people. Previous
to the nineteenth century, people got
along without any general transport
alton systems. They lived where
they could get fuel, food and build
ing material at close range. Cloth
ing was mostly homespun. Com
merce, such as existed, by ship or
caravan, was largely in luxuries.
There was no general exchange of
everyday necessities such as exists
today.
Under such circumstances a re-
gion which was rich in some special
resources but which lacked in others,
could never hope for rapid develop
ment. The fertile plains of the CEN
tral states could produce food to sup
port millions of people, brit those
people could not reach the degree of
comfort and culture which they en-
Joy without railroads to bring in an
abundance of fuel, lumber, machin-
cry and other necessities.
In like manner the coal regions OF
Pennsylvania, the cotton fields of the
South, the Lake Superior iron dis
tricts, the orchard valleys of Califor-
mia, the copper country of Montana
and dozens Of other regions would be
limited to a small fraction of their
present output.

America will be saved, as hereto
fore, by the common sense of the

crisis to bring forth the latent strength
and forceful power OF those obliged to
struggle for a livelihood.
America is a creation Of the COM

for the protection OF its foundation
principles. Wealth too often spells
worthlessnessI and riches the ruin

from the rich.

As we had to be very careful, our prog
ress was slow; to lose any one in such
storm might mean serious results.
We had to make the next village
ahead, some 35 miles away, for 1t was
out of the question to pitch the tent
in that wind. Tramping along beside
the sleds and beating ourselves to keep
warm, there were times when we anx-
iously looked for the protecting Ice
of the mountains near Cape Nome.
I'm the middle of the day we could
see the sun, a red ball through the
driving snow, but everything on a
level was a winding binding sheet. AS
we worked on, seeing nothing. buff
feted about by the fierce gusts, 1t
seemed as if we would certainly pay
dearly for our temerity. and even Mix
kel, the stolid I4app, swore that moth
ing would ever induce him to start out
in such blizzard again. In the after
noon the wind suddenly lulled, and we
found ourselves under the lee of Cape
Nome. We now breathed easier, and
several hours later made our camp at
the village of Kebethluk, on the west
side of the cape.

Rescuers Were Thought to
Have Dropped From Sky

March 20 was a beautiful, clear
morning, cold and sharp, but with a
cloudless sky and little or no wind.
and when we drew up at the settle
ment at Point Barrow it seemed as
if nature was trying to make amends
at last for the hard trials she had
given us from Point Hope up the coast.
Passing rapidly by the village, and by
the old shanty where the men were
quartered, we drew up at the house of
the Cape Smythe Whaling and Trad
ing Company, of which Mr.. c. ID.
Brewer was manager The camp was
not really at Point Barrow, but at
Cape Smythe, abut 8 miles below.
Point Barrow itself Is a low, narrow
sand spit. with the native village OF
point. At Cape Smythe is another
large village, Octkieawie, and as the
land is higher than further north and
good water is found the whaling sta
tions established by the white men
We're located there. 1t is all known
as Point Barrow to the outside world.
and the distinction is only local. All
the population came out TO see us go
by and wondered what strange outfit
1t was. and when We greeted Mr..
Brewer and some OF the officers of the
wrecked vessels whom we knew they
We're stunned. and it was some time
before they could realize that we were
flesh and blood. Some looked off to
the south to see If there was not ship
in sight, and others wanted to know If
we had come up in balloon. Though
they had realized their dangerous situ-
alton last fall and had sent out Mr..
Tilton and Mr.. Walker for aid with
the first opening of the ice they had
not thought it possible for any one to
reach them in the winter, and had
not we and our positions been so well
known l. think they would have
doubted that we really did come in
from the outside world.

and sailed from Seattle, Wash, No
vember 27, 1897, just three weeks from
the date of her arrival from the North.
"Ten months later she returned
again to Seattle, bringing four crews
of wrecked whalers. and having fully
carried out all orders and accom-
plished all the purposes of the expedi-
ton without loss or accident of any
kind"
Hidden behind those few eloquent
words, is a remarkable story of endur-
ance, bravery and perseverance. The
ice had long since closed in on the Arc
tic Ocean. The Bear could not get
even near the mouth of the Yukon
river She had to land the three dar-
ing officers with a small quantity of
supplies at an Indian village near
Cape Vancouver on Nelson Island, and
then hurry away to keep from being
crushed by the ice.
From that point these officers trav-
eled by dog and reindeer sled for one
thousand five hundred miles, over
snow covered mountains. down the
frozen Yukon River to the coast, along
the shore Of the frozen ocean, across
more mountains, over blizzard swept
arms of the sea-and all the time liv-
ing off the country obtaining fur skin
clothing from an occasional native vii
lage. and driving most of the way a
herd of more than four hundred rein
deer which they used for their own
food, and with which they kept alive
the destitute whalers after they ar
rived at Point Barrow until the Bear
arrived there in the middle Of the fol-
lowing summer.
Lieut.. Bertholf received orders to
stop some distance this side of Point
Barrow and he estab blished a halfway
relief station at Point Hope. Lieut..
Jarvis and Surgeon Call went the en-
tire 1900 miles, and, with the assist
anee of one other white man. w. T.
Lopp, superintendent of the Govern
ment reindeer station and several ma
tives, drove the deer herd.

~ nee more the Bear, Uncle Sans
adventure ship Of the frozen

from a romantic quest above the
Arctic Circle. She is somewhere in
the vicinity OF Nome, after lodging
the ice fields about Point Barrow, the
northcrnmost projection of Alaska,
representing the Government of the
United States in that far off region
helping persons in distress and search
ing for a lost stone with a history.
BY wireless to Nome from the COM
mandant OF the Bear came this week
the news that Capt. Road Amundsen's
ship, the Maud, is in the ice near
Point Hope, north of kotzebue Sound,
and that the arctic explorer himself,
with Lieut.. Oscar 0mdal, aviator and
motion picture photographer, is. pre-
pairing to spend the winter at Vain
wright, near Point Barrow, apparently
having given up his proposed trans
polar fight for this season at least.
In June of this year the Bear es-
corted Amundsen's ship for the first
