I can prove the truth of Dr. Cook's statements In regard to his discovery of the North Pole, from Peary's own official record of his last dart to the Northward. So far as I can learn, Dr Cook hap never made a confession In regard to his trip to the Pole In tho sense that he denied his first statemetis. lie ha merely said that in view of the great dtlficulty In determining the exact lo cation of the Pole he may not have been exactly upon the northernmost point of the world. Peary, under the pressure, at the Congressional In vestigation was forced to admit the same. , ' . For three hundred years, there has been a rivalry among civilized men to be the first to reach the north pole. I believe that the honor or haviug sue ceeded in the attempt should go not to Peary but to a man who reached tho Polo a year before Peary claims to have been there. Dr. Cook Is now In New York City, and I have talked with him several times recently. With the Information that I myself have gathered, I believe that he did really reach the Pole, or came so close to that point that he is entitled to the credit of the Pole's discovery. Among the reasons which Peary as signs for doubtlnr Dr. Look is one pertaining to the original records which Dr. Cook unwillingly left at Et ah. The leaving behind of these pap ers, according to Peary, was merely a scheme of Cook's part so' that he might claim they had been lost or de stroyed and thus escape being forced to produce them in substantiation of his claim. .Recently when I asked Dr. Cook about this, his reply was: 'This does, not sound very manly. If this was so on Peary 8 belief, why did he not bring them back? Here was ab solute proof In bis own; hands. Why did he ;bury it? ; The Yellow Press and sensation mongers will decry Dr. Cook for some years to com" but -tic explorers en dorse him today. Rear Admiral W. S. Schley, Gen. A. W. Oreely, Capt. Ron ald Amundsen, Discoverer of the south pole. Otto ' Severdrup and all the world's greatest explorers have en dorsed Dr. Cook. -.--. . ! -1 have seen Dr. Cook's original Field Notes hlB obeervatons, and the lmpor tant chapters of his book, wherever his claim is presented In such a way that the scientific world must accept It as the record and the proof of the great est Geographic accomplishment of the modern times. Putting aside the academic and Idle argument of pin point accuracy, the North Pole has been honestly reached by Dr. Cook 350 days before anyone else claimed to have been there.
