Peary, who has planted the A m erican flag nearer the coveted northern goal than any other living man, is in New York m aking active preparations for another A rctic dash in the hope of solving the m ystery of the north, which for centuries has been the aim of daring explorers. The stanch steam er Roosevelt, which the Peary A rctic Club built for Com m ander Peary, and which carried him and his little party on his last n o rth ward journey, has been overhauled and put in better condition than ever for her expected battles w ith the ice barriers of the frozen north. The ship is tugging at her haw sers in the harbor of New York, ready to start when her com m ander gives the word. P eary’s present plans contem plate his departure from New Y ork about July 1, but lack of sufficient funds to finance the expedition m ay prevent the start. In fact, unless $25,000 is forthcom ing by July the project will have to be abandoned. A n auxiliary ship or collier will accom pany the Roosevelt as far north as E tah, where P eary’s coal depot in the last expe dition was located. E tah was the w inter quarters of Dr. H ayes’ last ex pedition and is located about 70 de grees north latitude.

C ITIZ E N S T A K E IN IT IA T I V E . Corrupt Practices Att Restricts Can Plan Bonds to Raise Money to Im prove Stuslaw Bar. , didates' Acts. Salem— The adoption of the corrupt practices act by the people at the elec tion dune 1 will make the next political campaign a vastly different one from those which have been seen iu Oregon in the last few years. For one thing, the advertising plan of .m aking a campaign, which Senator Bourne made popular in Oregon, will be less extensively used in the future. Two features of the corrupt practices act will tend to accomplish this cud—- one a lim itation on expenditures, and the other a requirement that paid ad vertising be so marked. Undoubtedly the measure will have a salutory effect in purifying elections, though some of its provisions seem unnecessarily se vere. Publicity in the m atter of Campaign expenditures is one of the most import ant requirements of tho law, and here after it will bo necessary for candidates and party managers to keep an account of all expenses and file it within 15 days after the primary or general elec tion, showing contributions to cam paign funds and the purposes for which all money was spent. Candidates are perm itted to use one page of a pamphlet to be issued by the state for the pur pose of giving the voters information concerning them, each candidate to pay for the space occupied, and in excess of th at each candidate may spend in a primary campaign 15 per cent of one y e ar's salary, and in a general cam pign 10 per cent of one y e a r’s salary though any candidate may spend a» much as $100 if the percentage should be less than that. A candidate for governor will hereafter be limited to an expenditure of $750 in a primary campaign and $500 in a general cam paign. _________ Posse Chases Horsethieves. Fugene.—The citizens of the Sius- law valley, cm the coast of Lane coun ty, are becoming tired waiting for tlie governm ent to im prove the bar at the m outh of the Siuslaw river so ves sels can pass out or in w ithout delay, and a plan is being discussed to raise funds for the undertaking in another way. It is proposed to bond that part of the county lying w est of the Coast range of m ountains for 30 or 40 years, and use the m oney thus raised in building jetties at the mouth of the river. It is thought by the prom oters of the schem e that $100,000 could lie raised easily in this way. and that with this sum considerable start could be made tow ard constructing the jetty. It is hoped by the time this sum is expended the national gov ernm ent would be ready to take up the w ork and push it to completion. To m eet the interest on the bonds each year, it is proposed to collect a toll of perhaps 25 cents per thousand feet on the lum ber and a proportion ate sum on other articles exported from the tow ns at the m outh of the river. L ater a sinking fund could be raised in the same way to pay off the bonds when they become due. In this way the expense of building the jetty would be borne by the indus tries directly benefited by the work. IN C R E A S E P E N D L E T O N PLANT. Wisconsin Company Negotiating for Woolen Mills.
