" ARCTIC EXPLORATION Scientists and darinj and hardy explorers are daily evolving more feasible and obviously more wise and nearly successful methods of reaching the North Pole, according to the opinion of a California exchange, which gires editorial sanction to a scheme set forth by one E. B. Baldwin, who has endeavored to enlist President Roosevelt in aid of his plan. This man Baldwin, it seems, intends to utilize. aa a mode of travel one of the immense ice floes that drift from the Behring sea across the Arctic ocean and eventually reach the coast of Greenland, which will consume about three years and a half. He expects to take with him a party not to exceed twenty five men, including scientists, naturalists and artists, and de signs the establishment of a portable camp and scattering of barrels of oil and logs, presumably to be used, if necessary, for fuel, over the floe. He believes that in this way it is not only possible to r.J,lr.:ii tl.e poie, Li.1 r'ro to ascertain scientific facts and make observations ar.d photorapL;! aitherto unobtainable. Many will lool; v?"m the scheme as Quixotic and worthy only of ridicule, bub two iati should be remembered before the sub ject is dismissed light'. Flxst, iv.vest'x:1''" i-as proved that these floe:', Ll-ning south of .)!ohrin i:-ait, Arit ia-a regular course across the Arctic, ant! i'; is know: lh:.t portions of the wrecked Joannette anr drift t v ki itarted i". ovr. fiat point have been picked up off the Greenli..u coast. Secona, ihe idea is in dorsed by Admirals Melville and Schley, both ol whom are ex ceptionally familiar with the Arctic conditions. The first was with the Joannette expedition and the latter rescued the surviv ors of the Greeley expedition. Mr. Baldwin expects to do by traveling on a drifting floe what DeLong expected to do on the Jeannctte, and he will not be in danger of having his transporting means crushed. And, after all, there is nothing more wild in the idea advanced by Baldwin than there is in the many dirigible balloon or airship plans that have been proposed by a number of Polar expedition enthusiasts. It is probable that the Baldwin plan will eventually be tried, for tho luro of the pole seems to be such that when once man is attracted he in some manner is able to put his ideas into execu tion. Still, to tho man who has been accustomed to traveling on jno-Vrn rress trains P"d etVer rapid means of locomotion, the idi of si. ting down on an ice floe and remaining there for three or . v.r cars to wait for it to drift along to the north pole or to son s otl er place, real or imaginary, may seem to be a trifle liumtmun and not calculated to create a great deal of excite ment, yet thore is not so much between that sort of thing and going up into the Polar regions, to be caught in the ice and re maining thore for one or more years. ' The whole matter of Arc . tio exploration seems to be somewhat of a joke to the average man and woman. ' ' 1 of the world. No doubt there are many persons m kingdom competent to rule and now these will doubtless be brought forward. The goveramen building will be commenced at once and the $50,000 Y. M. C. A. will fojjow closely. Now it would seem that a modern hotel building is about all that is left of Eugene's most pressing needs. A strong pull all together ought to assure that before many weeks roll around. BOY'S CONFERENCE TO BE HELD HERE THIS WEEK The big tobacco war has closed, with honors about even. There is not much chance for the trusts to fight long enough to work any considerable injury to themselves. They know when to quit fighting and come together for their own protection, and that is just what has happened in the present instance. In announcing his willingness to be 'elected senator by the Ohio legislature, "Private" Dalzell declared he had neither gold, silver, trust nor official pull. Now the practical politicians are wondering how he can figure that he has a ghost of a chance. Maybe the sugar trust does not put sand in its goods, but Uncle Sam has brought seven suits against it for monkeying with the scales, which seems to indicate rather strongly that the sweet bunch isn't entitled to a "good" tag. This mix-up beween Miss Elkins and a dago duke is rough on the other members of the Elkins family, but may serve a good purpose by lessening the demand for titles among American heri-esses. .

Ho read law In the office. of United States Senator Horatio Seymour, and was admitted to the bar In 1850. In 18.56 Mr. Stewart was elected a mem her "of the Ver mont legislature . He served as State senator In 1SC2, and In 1SG4 re turned to the house to become it3 speaker. In 1S70 he was elected gov ernor of Vermont, for a term of two years, and after another short term as speaker of the limine he was elec ted to Congress from the First Ver mont district In 1SS2. He was re elected to Congress for three suc cessive terms. Upon the death of Senator Redfteld Vroctor last March Mr. Stewart was appointed by Gov ernor Fletcher Proctor to fill out the unexpired term of the latter's father In the United States senate. Third Annual Meeting of the Oregon-Idaho Conference The Program , I'om Johnson, mayor of Cleveland, Ohio, has lost his fortune. The dispatches give out the information that he lost the money through his devotion to the affairs of his dead brother's estate. The real facts are that it was frittered away doing politics. John son is said to be an honest man, ,and we have no doubt of the truth of tho assertion. Under present conditions the strictly honest man seems to be out of place in office, for it is always sure to result disastrously to his private affairs. He is expected to give liberally to overy charity and public enterprise, and his salary is never sufficient to keep up to the steady drain. Besides all this he neglects his private business affairs for those of the public and the result is inevitable. . MAIiHS ASTOXISIUXG CI HKS.

So earnest and active have been thoso who have the details of the work in charge that something like $31,000 has already been pledged nd there is every reason to believe that the entire sum will be raised.
