While I do not know the mnllmrnt of every ioir In the county, I think it Is a safe prediction that Mr. Taft will se rare two-third of the Republican vote of Marlon County aa against Roosevelt- This was the declaration made by r.nhert J. Hendricks today. He Is chairman of the Tart executive com mittee for Marion County, head of the f-mtesman Publishing Company and a rrsn who has ample opportunity to come In contact with a large number of the voters and to sound the sen timents of many parts of the county.

"Rut these Rooseveltlan tactics have died out. as they should die out. and t'ne people desire a sane, safe guidance in public affairs, rather than the busl rss unrest which Imperils the peace v-f i he people as well as their pocket books." The statement of Mr. Hendricks ee-ns to voice to a large degree the f-"etrnif of scores of others from many parts of the county who have bVen arked impartially as to their belief In the outcome. H. G. Mvers. chairman of the State Roard of Barber Kiaminers and a man who has alwsvs been strongly affiliat ed In many ways with union labor as a "bo."" barber, although this posi tion has excluded him from direct connection with the unions, declared todav that it also was his belief that .Marlon County would five nearly a 2 to 1 vote for Taft.

T find now that there Is a rood Roosevelt sprlnk Jtng. but when the votes are counted :m this county Taft will be the choice of the people. For this reason I am gisd that we have a Presidential pri mary here. The primary will be con ducted on the square and will.

Among all classes of people In Salem t he Taft sentiment Is wholesome and koen. Hut aside from the city preclnots. the sentiment extends into the coun try precincts. Farmsrra 1 aat Taft. Scores of rural voters have expressed themselves openly while In the city t. the effect that they are for Taft fur two reasons. One Is because Taft will make a President of the whole p- ople as be has done tn the past and m ill assure a general business prosper ity, which Is the greatest wish and the greatest asset of the farmer. The, other reason they desire Taft Is be cause they say they are opposed to Roosevelt becoming even a nominee again. They declare that the very fact that Roosevelt la a nominee, should he be so successful, will result in a depression at the time when it m ill -fee financially fatal to them this year and will tie thrm up as far as prfilts are concerned. Marion County has the second larg est vote of any county in the state and these statements are taken In a large measure to mean that ihe sentiment of other counties of the Willamette Valley In this immediate section will be xlmilar to the sentiment of the voters in this county.

Ignorant of these events, after fail ing to save our sick pony, my own party had reached the barrier, where the Ice. breaking under foot, forced us to retreat hurriedly, with ths grav est anxiety for our companions. My fears wera confirmed when Wilson, who had traveled out over land, re turned, having aeen with glasses ponies adrift on sea ice. An hour later Crean was seen approach In K, and learning his nem-s.

Working around tha bay we ap proached the barrier edge, and at ( P. 11-. by good fortune, discovered the missing party on a pack which had been drifting slowly northwest, and bad temporarily stopped, owing to the swell subsiding. With Alpine ropes the men wera rescued with difficulty. Paalea Loat lee. Working on through the night' we succeeded In saving the sledges and their loads, but could do nothing for the ponies, which were only SO yards away. At 4 A. M. the pack began to move again. We left the ponlea with full nose bags and rested till 8 A. M., when the pack was again stationary. Wo marched north, found the ponies and mad desperate efforts to save them. Bowers and Oatea risked a long de tour over the pack and led the animals over many jumps, while the remainder of tha party dug a trench to the lower part of tbe barrier. The edgea of it were far aboye tha water and were very uneven. Killer whales hung about within a few yards. The ponies falling at tha Jump wera Irretrievably lost. Hardships again marked the progress for many daya and the travel ing waa alow. Praaralas Are ewght. On June 17. middle Winter. Wilson. Bowers. Cherry and Gerrard started on a sledge Journey to Cap Crosier to observe tha incubation of Emperor pengulna at their rookery. Tha heavy surface of tha barrier forced the party to relay the work during the main part and a fortnight was taken on the outward Journey. The temperature was seldom above minus (V degrees and often below minus 70 degrees, the low est observed with a sling thermometer being minus 77 degrees. Behind a land ridge on the slopes of Mount Terror the party spent three daya In building a atona hut. which they roofed with canvas from this camp. The men had great difficulty In crossing tha huge barrier pressure rtdgea, in the dim noon twilight, to reach the rookery. They were sue cesful at a second attempt. Iloleat atarwi Cassee I si. . They found comparatively few birds at the rookery, but they had begun to lay even at thla early date. Fortunately 1 11 1; MOK.MXi OKKUOIA.. ItbSl.li, .ijih .

The same night a violent gale com menced and the ridge proved Inade quate shelter from the hurricane gusts which whirled down on the but. A tent and other carefully secured ar ticles were blown away and after straining for 14 hours, the roof of the hut flew to ribbons. For 30 hours mors the travelers were confined In their frosen sleeping beds, half burled beneath snow and rock debris. Forty- , eight' hours elapsed before the wind decreased and they were able, to get a meal. Searching for lost articles they were fortunate In finding the missing tent among some morainlc boulders, prac tically undamaged. The state of their equipment now forced them to turn homeward. Party Covered Mlk Ice. On tho return Journey they were held for two days by another storm, after which the temperature fell and re mained below minus to degrees. The party returned, after five weeks' ab sence. Incased In ice and suffering from want of sleep, but otherwise -well. Having regarded the darkness and extreme temperatures, thla first Win ter in tha Antarctic remains a re markable feat of endurance: It also shom-s the extraordinarily severe con ditions that obtain on tho great snow plain barrier during the sunless sea son. Sine the return of tho sun In August, considersble increass of wind haa been recorded. On September 1 Mearea and Mlmlntri, with dog teams, made their headquar ters at Hut Point, the dogs leaving for that depot in splendid form. At In tervals since our arrival, however, some obscure disease has robbed us of four excellent dogs. In every case tho dog attacked appeared vigorously healthy, but died in a few hours. It is thought the cause may be some min ute threadworm entering- the brain. Telepkoae la laatalled. At the end of the month telephone communication waa established with Hut Point through 15 miles of bare wilds. The telephone has already proved extremely useful for reporting the movement of parties, pending changes oC weather. With Bowers, Simpson and Petty Of ficer Evans, I traveled west September 15. Ascending Ferrard Glacier, we found, by stakes planted by Wrltsfit that the ice stream had moved SO feet tn seven months. Later, 45 miles north west of our station, we found part of the glacier tongue broken in March, with the forage depot left by Campbell Intact. Owing to work at the station ar.d the need of increasing exercise for the ponies, we have been unable to un dertake further Spring Journeys. The western geological party, con sisting of Taylor. Debenham, Gran and Forde. delayed by an accident, will leave In a few days for Granite Harbor. Posies Are Sacrificed. All plana and preparations for the southern Journey are now complete and. despite the accidents of last season, we have great hope of progress. The ne cessity of getting the utmost out of our remaining ponlea has decided me not to expose them to great cold. We shall therefore start later than originally in tended. December 10 found tha party In lati tude tl degrees, IS minutes. After the return of the motor party from latitude SI degrees, 15 minutes, we pushed stead ily south, hopeful for better weather conditions. A second pony was de stroyed at latitude S2 degrees and 10 minutes, a third at latitude 82 degrees, 46 minutes, and two more in tbe 83d parallel. None of these animals were ex ha us-tad, but were sacrificed on ac count of lightening loads and food for dogs. Laad Rarely Visible. As we approached the weather grew worse; snow storms were a frequent thing. The sky continually was over csst and land waa rarely visible. Un der the circumstances It will be most difficult to keep a straight course and maintain steady marches. The party made good speed and they were at latitude 85 degrees 7 minutes south, longitude 1(2 degrees 4 minutes east: height above. 8890 feet, four miles south. SO west, of Mount Darwin. Largely aa a result of the storm re ported In my last dispatch, the lower reaches of the glacier were Ailed with terribly soft snow. Men on foot sank to the knea at each step. It would - t a 4 have been quite Impossible to advance, had we not pulled on skis. Progress Is Tedious. As it was, the runner surface of sledges proved inadequate. The-y frequently sank to the cross bars, re quiring to be extracted with standing pulls. For four days we struggled In this morass, scarcely advancing five miles a day. although working 10 to 11 hours. It is difficult to pitch camp and load sledges on such a surface. On the fifth day the surface grew a little harder, and we were able to push on, still pulling on skis. We did not get abreast of Cloudbreaker Moun tain until the 17th. so that the snow cost us a week's advance. Since the 16th we have been able to make very good marches, working up from IS to 22 statute miles per day. By programme, I arranged to push on from the 85th parallell with eight' men and 11 units of provisions, but I hoped to reserve a margin over this. Everyoae la Good Healtk. As we stand we are only half a day's food short on programme and should have a good chance of getting- through if the weather continues satisfactory. We had to march without signs of land on occasions. Wo areV getting tnter mlttent fog In this most crevassed part of the glacier. Everybody is in the best of health and spirits. It has been most difficult to select the returning party of four which car ries this letter. Our position consti tutes our upper glacier depot. Com plete depota have been established on the homeward rotite. The track of the barrier is well marked with snow catrns. The members going, forward are: Scott, Lieutenant Evans, Wilson, Bowers, Oates, Lassley, Petty Officer Evans and Cream. Advamtasre Sooa Apparent. January S, 1812. latitude 87.32, height 9800 feet. After leaving the upper glacier depot, south of Mount Darwin, I steered southwest two days. This did not keep us clear of pressure ridges and crevasses, which occurred fre quently at first and gave us trouble, but we rose rapidly In altitude and probably the difficult places were more snow covered than further eastward. The advantage of this course was mainly felt on the third and fourth days. when, owing to our latitude, we got a splendid view of the distribution of land masses fringing the ice sheet and the arrangement of Ice falls. Since leaving the depot our marches have averaged over IS statute miles a day. On Christmas day we were close up to the 86th parallel and the pros pect of Christmas fare gave us an ex cellent march, 17 miles, but the effect was not so happy the following day. Sledarea Are Rebuilt. The surfaee grew more difficult as we approached the 87th parallel. On New Year'a eve. In latitude 88 degrees, 68 minutes, we depoted there a unit of provisions and rebuilt our sledges with new short runners, which remarkable piece of work waa performed by the seamen of the party under adverse con ditions. Although It cost us nearly a day's march, the .change amply repaid us. We have been unable to keep up our average and we are now within 150 miles of the pole. I am going forward with a party of five men. sending the three back under Lieutenant Evans with this note. The names and de scriptions of the advance party are: Captain Scott, R. N.; Dr. Wilson, chief of the sclentif'o staff; Captain Oates. Tnnesklllen Dragoons. In charge of the ponies and mules: Lieutenant Bowers, Roval Indian Marines, commissary of ficer; Petty Officer Evans, R. N, in charge of slcdses and equipment. The advance party goes forward with a month's provisions, and the prospects of success seem good, providing the weather holds and no unforeseen ob- TTTT O CI "I FOR THE NEWEST '. L. f 405 WASHINGTON The Store With staele arises. It has been very diffi cult to choose the advance party, as everyone was fit and well able to go forward. Those who return are naturally much disappointed.' Everyone has worked his hardest. The weather on the pla-. teau has been good on the whole. The sun has never deserted us, but the temperatures are low, now about minus 20 degrees and the wind pretty con stant. However, we are excellently equipped for such conditions, and the wind undoubtedly improves the sur- ace- t . . So far all arrangements have worked out most satisfactorily. It is more than probable that no further news will be received from us this year, as our return must necessarily be late. CHEAPER POWER IS AIM Electricity May Bo Made at Coal Mines in Near Future.
