WILL THY AGAIN TQ FIND ICE CONTINENT Captain EJnar MlXlrdsen, who was ii Joint commander of the Anglo American Polar rpo(Wlon which sought to find an ndlscovered con tinent In the Beaufort sea. arrived from the north today on fhe 'Yucatan. Cuptoln Mlkkelsrn's vessel, the Duch ess of Bedford, was lost In the Ice puck near Flax-man (slant a year ago. He brings -with him a great fund of Information concerning the unexplored Beoufort sea and an nounces his purpose of fitting out another expedition to continue his search for land, rys a Seattle dis patch. Ernest de Ko Koven Lefftngwell, who with Captain Mlkkelsen. com manded the expedition, remained at Plavman island lo continue his scien tific work Captain Mlkkelsen start ed October IS from Flaxman Island and made the Journey along the northern shores of Alaska to Nome, arriving at the latter place Januar j 18 and Journeyed with dog sleds up the Yukon river to Fort Gibbon, and came out by the way of Fairbanks und Valdex. Captain Mikkelsen's expedition tra versed the continental shelf In the Beaufort sea and ascertained that if land d"es lie beyond the sea it Is an Independent continent. He has ob tained Information concerning ocean currents which will be Invaluable to him when he makes his next attempt to attain the unknown continent. Make ltafw Out or Sleds. Captain Mlkkelsen made use of a new Idea in polar travel by which he wns able to save 90 pounds weight on his sledges. In the tedious march over the Ice hummocks, the party frequently came upon open water. Captain Mlkkelsen had none of the native knryacks of which Dr. Nan sen made such good use, but Instead he made his boats when the occasion arose. He strapped a waterproof tarpaulin beneath his sledges and Improvised a raft which floated. The sledge expedition went further Into the unexplored Beaufort sea than had been planned by the royal geograph ical society of Indon and the Am erican Geographical society of New York, which directed the expedition. They found the continual shelf and had learned that beyond this shelf there wag water of great depth. It wns ascertained ' that the Beaufort sea was not a shallow basin, as had been supposed. The sledge expedition started from Flaxman Island March Is, 1907. They took 20 dogs. The trip occupied 86 days. During the Journey they en countered rubble Ice, which Is form ed by breaking up of thin Ice under pressure and freezing again, leaving the edge sticking straight up. For eight days of their Journey they ac complished only 14 miles. Captain Mlkkelsen has two piano to attain the polar continent One Is a boat and sledge trip from Point Bar row, taking only a small amount of provisions and trusting to finding the Ice-capped land, the shores of which he believes will support human life His other plan Is to fit out another ship which will be frozen in the polar pack as far north as Point Barrow as he can drive the vessel and to use It as a basis of supplies for his sledge Journey.

The local oil company, organized for the purpose of making a thor ough investigation of the oil pros pecta in this section, sent an order last week to Bradford, Pennsylvania, for tool and machinery with which to sink the wells, and they confident ly expect to begin active operations within the next 60 days. Leases for more than 14,500 acres of land in the Opal Prairie, Culver and Lamontu districts have been signed, and many others are expected to sign within the next two weeks. This was the information given out last Saturday by memtxM-s of the com pany residing here, says the Madras Pioneer. Only one will will he drilled to be. gin with. The tools mid machinery ordered will be used in connection with the big Lovelaod drill, and with new machinery the hole will be sent down lo a depth of several thousand feet If necessary. A thorough test will be made of the best prospect the company has on Its leased ground, and if indications Justify It, other wells will be sunk at once at other points. It has not yet been definite ly determined where the first well will be sank. The local company is backed by Portland capital, and say that they have plenty of money In sight to thoroughly prospect their ground for oil.

This device is nn invention of Mr. Drury, This rancher has also shown the residents of his section that alfalfa can be successfully grown and has .1 field on top of the Irlll near his straw berry beds, from which he cuts two good crops each year, and then gets good pasture from the tract. lralri Fire Swoop Dakota.

A FRANKLIN AUTOMOBILES Is Air-Cooling Practical? What does it do? What is the benefit ? Nobody tvor questioned thai if air-cooling will cool it is the ideal method. But the question still cornea up "will it cool '." Look into that fairly Last Augitst a Franklin Type D automobile ran from Chicago to New York in less than 4(1 hours, cutting the water-cooled record 18 hours and 150 minutes. A machine could not he "coddled" and make that record. It must he driven hard. In fact, this Type D leat the express train that carried the relay drivers he t ween three of the stops, else the record would have been cut still further. The 15-day run of a Franklin Type H automobile from San Fran oisco to New York in August two years ago, is also still untouched. The Franklin I) engine ran 7 days without stopping, in a hot Chi cago salesroom, and again at Cincinnati it ran 18 day-. :VM2 miles, over had winter mads. In this run the Franklin motor was kept going every minute and only stopped finally when the emergency hrake was pulled by mistake. Finally, 5828 Franklin automobiles are in daily use. Can anyone douht that Franklin air-coolinir is completely practical . You gain simplicity. Water-coolintr is a complicated system. It increases the liability to trouhle. If the water boils there will lie over heating. This can't happen to the Franklin motor. The temperature is more constant and more efficient. It eets more work out of the gas oline. You save the extra weight of water-cool imr apparatus. The pow er is not handicapped. Tt can do more. And with the Franklin shock-ah-sorriing1 construction the power can always he comfortably used. The operating expense is light : and you pet all the henefit of it. No other automobile weighing under 2000 pounds will do the work of the Franklin family touring-tar Type G which weighs only 1(100 pounds. Delivered in Pendleton, $1950. No automobile hut a Franklin will carry five people as far in a day and its comfortably as the Franklin 5-passenger Type D ; yet it only Weighs 2200. The average fi-passcnger automobile weighs a third, more. Delivered in Pendleton, $2950. The 6-cylinder, T-passenger Type II is the ablest and easiest tour ing car in existence,- yet it weighs onlv 2600 a thousand pounds leas, than the average 7-pasenger automohile.
