If an Englishman can got within 120
miles of the South Pole a Yankee can cer
tainly k the whole distance.
Even the friends of Dr. Cook must
admit that Peary was a mighty good sec
oiul. Rut Mr. Peary seems quite averse
to playing second fiddle for this polar
bear dance.
Buttermilk bas taken the place of the
highball as a popular beverage In Ten
nessee. The principal point in favor of
buttermilk Is that it does not inspire the
drinker to sing.
Gov. Johnson, of Minnesota, died at
3:23 yesterday morning, after a brave
fight for life following an operation. In
his death the nation loses one of its most
distinguished cltlzenB aud statesmen.
Dn. Cook bas at least got number of
decorations in Europe which nothing
Peary can say will take away. But
European decorations are now too com
mon in America to make it likely that be
will be satisfied with these.
To votk a straight party ticket and at
the same time vote for or against the pro
posed constitutional amendment at the
coming November election, it will be
necessary for the voter to mark bis ballot
12 times. One mark will be required in
the square opposite the party name for
straight vote for all the candidates of (bit
party, and as there are 10 amendments
and a schedule, 11 more marks will he
necesnary. The voter who undertakes to
split his ticket will, of course, bare aa
many additional marks as there are state
and county offices to be filled.
E. II. Harkiman's will by which be
disposed of about $100,000,000, was short
and to the point. It reads: "I, Edward
H. Ilarriman, of Arden, in the State of
New York, do make, publish and declare
this to be my last will and testament;
that is to ssy: I give, devise, and be
queath all ot my property, leal and per
sonal, of every kind and nature, to my
wife, Mary W. Harrlman, to be bers ab
solutely and forever; and I do hereby
nominate and appoint said Mary W.
Harriman to be the executrix of this
will." Mrs. Harrlman is the richest wid
ow lu America.
"Iamb lawyer myself, and admire my
profession," said president Tafl In bis
recent remarks concerning the law's de
lay, "but I must admit that we have bad
too many lawyers legislating on legal
procedure, and they have been prone to
think that litigants were made for the
purpose of furnishing business to the
courts and lawyers, and not courts and
lawyers for the benefit of the people and
litigants." It is human nature for a rep
resentative to think of bis own profession
first in legislative matters, and as a ma
jority of the legislators are always law
yers, it isn't much wonder the Interests
of that profession are carefully looked
after, rightly concludes the Punxy Spirit,
"If you live until next spring jou
are going to witness one of the most
magnificent sights the heavens have ever
disclosed before your eyeB," says a well
known member of the astrouomlcl force
of the United States Naval Observatory,
This comet comes only once In a lifetime
and many persons are born, live and die
without ever catching a glimpse of its
marvelous dash of fire across the skies,
it was last seen in IS.J8 aim few persons
now alive can say they ever witnessed it.
The astronomical world is now on the
watub, and huge refracting and reflecting
telescopes are trained upon ths heavens
from many points ol the earth in a com
mon effort to locate tbe comet, which Is
approaching earth at a terrific rate. There
Is a friendly rivalry to see which will
pick up the comtnet with their mirrors.
The editor of the Oil City Blizzard nut
shells this whole North l'ole business,
so far aa Dr. Cook Is concerned, in this
single paragraph: "If the claim of Dr.
t rederick A. Cook that he reached the
North Pole Is eventually proved to be
untrue the man will go down In history
as the greatest fakir the world has ever
known. Not only that, but he will be
the greatest actor that has ever appeared
in the world, and in addition, as a colon
snl liar be will outrank the venerable
Huron Munchausen. So whother the
Doctor's story be true or false a pillar in
the Hall of rameawaits tils name as the
greatest discoverer or the greatest fakir
and actor tbe world has ever produced,
But as day succeeds day the doubts are
being swept away, and in the minds of
most people there now remains no more
question that he discovered the pole than
that Christopher Columbus discovered
America."

The President's Clarion Call.
President William H. Taft. the no
ccpted hrnd of the victorious Re
publican army, Is making a triumphal
Journey from the Atlnrtic to the
Pacific and back again, and Is receiv
ing the honor and homage due his
exalted office from the whole people.
A proud, contented nation Is Inspired
by his dignified yet wholly demo
cratic Fplrtt, and in one harmonious
cheer the whole people wish him and
his party th-; abundant success so
richly merited.
President Tuft's opening speech de
livered at Boston, at the commence
ment of his 13,000-mile trip, outlined
his reasons for making it. Ho wants
to meet the people fac? to face, to
see them and talk with them, thus
gaining a more Intimate knowledge
of conditions. He wishes to Inform
them as to the policies of his admin
istration. He finds certain western
ers advocating a contest between the
Enst and the West for the domination
of the country. He deplores all this.
He wants peace. He reasons that
this Is one great Nation and that It
cannot thrive as it should unices
there can be unity between the sec
tions. He would have the people, for
Instance, study the currency question
and get, together. He would not have
one State fighting against another
State over the currency, nor one fac
tion tearing at the throat of another
faction, but in perfect good order
he would have a currency measure
agreed upon.
Nor would he have the country
further aroused over the tariff ques
tion. He renllzes that we cannot be
at the revision business all of the
time, and that for the present the
existing bill ought to be allowed to
stand. While he does not contem
plate another revision of the tariff
during his administration, at the
same time he proposes to employ the
foreign tariff board in making In
vestigation upon which a revision
may, when demanded, be made. Wlwt
the President said at the homo of
Representative James A. Tawney, of
Minnesota, who has been threatened
with defeat because he voted for the
Republican tariff bill, left no room to
question what the President's position
with respect to the tariff Is. Speak
ing broadly, the President In that
talk stood out in all the strength of
his commanding position as the head
of the nation, and vouched for the
quality of tariff revision with which
the Republican party, of which he Is
also the head, had redeemed Its cam
paign promises. It was a great
speech and one not to he misunder
stood. The President said:
"What I promised was that there
should be many decreases and that
In some few things increases would
be found to be necessary; but that
on the whole I conceived that the
change of conditions would make the
revision necessarily downward and
that, I contend, has been the result
of the Payne bill. I did not agree,
nor did the Republican party agree,
that we would reduce rates to such
a point as to reduce prices by the
Introduction of foreign competition.
Thnt 's what the free traders desired,
That Is what the revenue tariff re
formers desired, but that Is not what
the Republican party wished to bring
about."
There are other great questions
that need attention and the President
has shown that he Intends to take
them up In that greatest of tribunals,
the hearts and minds of the people.
He has made it plain thus far In his
trip that corporate business must be
conducted within the law. He has
declared anew his belief In organized
labor and congratulated the leaders
of the movement that "they have set
their faces like flint against the
doctrines of Socialism." There are
to be amendments to the interstate
commerce and anti-trust laws If tho
President can have his way, but In
seeking to force honesty In business
affairs he alms at "nothing revolu
tionary, nothing disturbing to legiti
mate business;" but the laws have
got to be obeyed, nevertheless.
The President evidently desires It
to be understood that this administra
tion does not, intend to stretch the
Constitution nor break the law in try
ing to enforce the law. It will rely
upon the law to maintain its policies,
and If the law is not strong enough,
why, we will make It stronger. In
brief, it Is beginning to be under
stood that Taft's Ideas are not so
greatly at variance with those of
Roosevelt, only less excitable methods
are to be pursued.

Fulton celebration at New York, Post
