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.

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. .

This morning's Oregonian says: "The citissens of Eugene
have set themselves to the task of raising $50,000 for the con
struction of a Y ,M. C. A. building. . So earnest and active have
been thoso who have the details of the work in charge that
something like $31,000 has already been pledged nd there is
every reason to believe that the entire sum will be raised. The
.example set in this manner by Eugene is one that might t$ com
inendably followed by other prosperous-valley cities. The Uni
versity town is certainly entitlod to credit for the public spirit
displayed this undertaking. Without doubt the dtOlred end
will be gained."
