A MOYAIILK XORTII POLE.
Captain Amundsen located tho mag
netic pole in some out of the way
place, and now an English theorist is
convinced that the north polo has
shifted from its supposed moorings.
That is to say. If tho calculations of
nil tho known explorers down to Peary
Lave been correct there is no like
lihood that a man extending his
tracks northward to tho limit would
strike the polo. This is because It has
been shifting eastward for years and
now keeps moving. Eventually he
thinks it will bo in Siberia. If it has
anything to do with sending blizzards
down the American continent wo shall
gladly make the czar a present of
this cold storage plant.
It Is doubtful whether this in
genious Englishman's theory will
cause a lessening of exploration par
ties. Men will bo Just as crazy to
prove that the polo Is not there as they
have been to prove that It is there.
Perhaps some daring party will make
a permanent camp on tho alleged route
of tho pole's travel and wait for it to
come around. It'is said that accumu
lations of ice are responsible for tho
shifting of tho pole. Eventually it
will occur to somebody to dynamite
tho mountains of Ice to make it flow
away faster and thus force the polo
to move on. Another Idea would bo to
concentrate powerful aerial currents
of electricity upon tho ice and melt it
Anyway, If the pole Is movable some
thing Is doing It, and the theory opens
up a beautiful field for speculation iu
the domain where old notions havo
long been exploded because nobody
could prove them.
A IIKIGHT SIDE.
All the money and blood of the
Goulds and Yuu.lcrbllts are not taint
ed by tho follies of the few repiv
soiitathes of these families. Helen
Gould has laid the foundation of uohlu
works which will be a monument to
bent back the vnes of scandal bet in
motion by the follies of her reckless
brother and sister. Now Consiielo
Vanderhlll, the Duchess of Marllior
oiigli, has turned from a dazzling ca
reer to engage in the work of uplift
ing humanity. Itcc-cutly she told the
rich women of New York and of all
America, for that matter, to cease
squandering money for luxuries and
devote it to the needs of their less for
tunate brothers and sisters.
Tho example of Helen Gould and
tho wise counsel of Consiielo Vander
bllt nre much needed by many women
.of wealth today. That form of vulgar
display iu the expenditure of wealth
which has grown amazingly the last
few years has no excuse for being. A
liberal use of wealth Is right, but lav
ish dissipation llnds imitators among
those who can 111 afford It, leads to
bankruptcy for tho many and Im
presses upon tho masses the false view
of llfo that smartness and vulgarity
are tho highest good. Human nature
is weak at best and needs no example
in high places to stimulate its follies.
Tho best type of high society Is that
of tho old New England regime which
holds wealth In stewardship to bo
devoted to uolilo ends for tho benefit
of large numbers). This typo Is not
now confined to any section, but It Is
a pleasure to tlntl n Gould and a Van
derbllt conspicuous among tho noble
workers for humanity.
JIT1ZKNS OF COOS AND CURRY.
A considerable number of tho citi
zens of Coos county having express
ed a iloslre that I should nlnco my
titautn hoforo you as a candidate for
th lkisltio.i of Joint senator and as
1 havo consented so to do, therefore)
make tho following declaration, if
olectctl It will bo my earnest en
4anvur to ailvancu nnd protect your
AntorostB without regard to private
idJ-juei or party alllllatlons,
H, D, HUME,
fly Charles Scnnlon, Field Secretary
of the Assembly's Temperance
Committee.
If more liquor Is sold where there
are no saloons than where there are,
would brewers, distillers and whole
sale dealers, who own about seventy
five per cent, of saloons, pay license,
rent, taxes, insurance, attorney's
fees, and contribute largo sums of
money to influence the press, to pub
lish and distribute literature, and in
other ways to obtain license, all to
lessen tho amount of their sales?
Would tho liquor men now be main
taining five national organizations,
at heavy expense, to oppose all pro
hibitory measures, if such measures
did not interfere with the traffic?
Would they keep an expensive lobby
at tho national capital to urge the
restoration of the canteen or army
saloon, and to prevent a prohibitory
clause in the Statehood bill for Ok
lahoma and Indian Territory if they
were not financially Interested?
Are beer wagons and "speak
easies" and "blind pigs" and liquor
agents alone, worse than all these
evils plus the open saloon? Do not
tho records of hundreds of towns
show that saloons do not lessen
these nuisances, but affords addi
tional temptation to drink, and is the
spawning place of the moat degrad
ing vices?
How do saloons help a town? Do
they make better fathers, husbands,
sons or brothers? Do they make
mothers, wives and children comfort
ablo and happy? Do they help to
build up churches and make it easy
for parents to keep children in
school?
Do not saloons mean drunkenness
and does not drunkenness mean less
steady and less skillful labor? Do
not sober men work more and retain
their earning capacity longer than
drinking men? Do not life insur
ance companies say that an abstainer
is from 30 per cent, to 40 per cent.
bettor risk than a drinker? Will
not the business of a town be deter
mined by the amount of goods which
its citizens can buy and pay for? Is
not the purchasing capacity of a man
limited to his earning capacity? Do
not sober men as a rule earn more
than drinking men, and do not their
families consume more and therefore
help business? Is the credit of a
drinking man as good as that of an
abstainer, if not why? Do not all
political economists agree that the
morals of a bread-winner are fully as
important a factor in his value to the
community as his physical and In
tellectual qualities? Can a man buy
beer and beef with the same money?
Who pays the license and all other
expenses of the saloon keeper? What
would go with that money if it did
not go for liquor?
If It Is such a disgraceful thing to
sell liquor that you do not want to
nssoclato with the man who does
it, is it a good thing for you to vote
for him to do a had thing? If it is a
bad thing to be a drunkard is it a
good thing to license men to make
drunkards? If a saloon is a good
thing why do those who patronize
it desire to ho shielded from view by
screens while they do so, and why
must it bo kept away from churches
and schools and out of residence dis
tricts? Is there anything In logic, morals,
reason, religion or common sense
which says that tho church should
throw down her arms and strike her
colors when sin forms a political al
liance? If Christ said ho came not
to regulate the works of tho devil
but to destroy them, Is It not enough
for church members than they he as
their Lord?
Is it right to voto for a thing
which no decent man ought to de
fined? Is it right to voto against a
man who advocates licensing a
saloon iu your home town and voto
for a man who advocates licensing
saloons throughout the State and the
Nation? Is it right to voto against
llconso when that is tho only Issue
and voto for license- when it is com
bined with other Issues?
Is not tho liconso system tho
strong tower to which tho traffic doth
resort in Its every tlmo of need? Is
It not "tho revenue which It pays"
which Is always mentioned by tho
"trndo" when this evil Is on trial for
Its llfo? Is not llcenso tho most dan
gerous and cleceptlvo expedient yet
tried to defer or defeat tho over
throw of tho trafflc? If a thing Is so
demoralizing that It must bo prohi
bited on Sundays and election days,
and so dangerous that It must bo for
bidden in caso of riots, fires or other
occasions of great excitement, ought
It to bo permitted at any time? If
Mayor Jones In Minneapolis, and
.Governor
Folko iu Missouri can
close tho saloons on Sunday, Is it
not proof that other executive ofllcors
can onforco tho law if they will to
do so?
Is tho govonimont moro Jealous of
rovonuo than of justico? Shall wo
".prohibit tho slaughter of buffaloes
