EKA PLAINDEALER Peary's Afro-American Companion in an Interview Says he Stood Side by Side With the Commander at the North Pole. The Peary-Cook north pole controversy has been doubly interesting by the straightforward story of Matthew Henson, Peary's indomitable assistant, who, according to the most authentic reports, made the following statement Sept. 16: "We arrived at the pole just before noon, April 6, the party consisting of the commander, myself, four Eskimos and thirty-six dogs, divided into two detachments equal in number and headed respectively by Commander Peary and myself. "We had left the last supporting place at 87 degrees 53 minutes, where we separated from Captain Bartlett. Captain Bartlett regretted that he did not have a British flag to erect on the ice at this spot, so that the photograph might show this as the farthest north to which the banner of England had been advanced. "Our first task on reaching the pole was to build two igloos, as the weather was hazy and prevented taking accurate observations to confirm the distance traveled from Cape Columbia. Having completed the snow houses, we had dinner, which included tea made on our alcohol stove, and then retired to rest, thus sleeping one night at the north pole. "We had figured out the distance pretty closely and didn't go beyond the pole. The flags were up about midday, April 7, and were not moved until late that evening. The haze had cleared away early, but we wanted some hours to take observations. We made three close together. "When we first raised the American flag its position was behind the igloos, which, according to our initial observations was the position of the pole, but on taking subsequent observations the stars and stripes was moved and placed 150 yards west of the first position, the difference in observations being due perhaps to the moving ice "Havng spent eighteen years with Commander Peary and a considerable partion of that time in the artics," continued Henson, "I have acquired a knowlepge of the dialect of the northern Greenland Eskimos, who are probably superior to any other. "When the flag was placed Commander Peary exclaimed in English, 'We will plant the stars and stripes at the north pole.' In the native language I proposed three cheers, which were given in the Eskimos' own tongue. 'Commander Peary shook hands all around, and we had a more liberal dinner than usual, each man eating as much as he pleased. The Eskimos danced about and showed great pleasure that the pole at last was reached. For years the Eskimos had been trying to reach the spot, but it was always with them 'tiquelgh,' which translated means 'get so far and no closer.' They exclaimed in chorus, 'Ting neigh timah ketisler,' meaning 'We have got there at last.' "At the pole," continued Henson, "we could see no open lead, and we went no distance beyond the flags. The ice near the igloos was at least ten feet high, and the flags were placed on a hummock twenty feet in height. 'he ice at the pole was about the same as on the journey up—all rafted in between with small floes. Nearly all the winds we had were from the northeast. Commander Peary had three thermometers, and the coldest day was 57 degrees F. Below zero. "The report is absolutely untrue that I did not go to the pole. I went the whole distance side by side with the commander and just as far as he did." VOLUME XI. Senator Curtis Shore HENSON WENT Peary's Afro-American Owl Says he Stood Side by Mander at the The Peary-Cook north pole teresting by the straightforward Peary's indomitable assistant, authentic reports, made the folly. "We arrived at the pole just consisting of the commander, six dogs, divided into two detached respectively by Commander. "We had left the last minutes, where we separated for Bartlett regretted that he did not ice at this spot, so that the farthest north to which the advanced. "Our first task on reaching as the weather was hazy and provisions to confirm the distance. Having completed the snow he cluded tea made on our alcohol, thus sleeping one night at the rye. "We had figured out the dog beyond the pole. The flags we were not moved until late that away early, but we wanted some made three close together. "When we first raised the behind the igloos, which, according to the position of the pole, various the stars and stripes was west of the first position, the due perhaps to the moving ice.

In the native language I propose in the Eskimos' own tongue. "Commander Peary shook more liberal dinner than usual, pleased. The Eskimos danced that the pole at last was reached, been trying to reach the spot 'tiquelgh,' which translated me. They exclaimed in chorus, 'Time. We have got there at last."

STUBBS’ ADMINISTRATION The people of Kansas may ever continve tv be proud of th: Hon. Charles Curtis then Unite States Serater who has slway championcd their caus £1 a square deal both ain st ty are nition, He cx oonte ¢f th hinder -arten admipsstration 0: Gov Stubbs’ cones as a bt seing to thet ape as ard fre hk mcd good fer the future. i will be an everlasting lesson t the voters of Kinsas ard teach them to not place men at the head of affairs who go about in a “skyrocket brigade’’ crying calamity and other fool rot about the tanpayers and consumers be- ing robbed, and saying clect them to office and the steal will stop. Now the real thing bas becn gotten at by Senator Curtis, who unearthed these pyrotechnic im- maginators of things that do not exist nor never will. The Gov- ernor fails to answer the charges Made agaiost his ad ninistration by Senator Curtis Fred Jewell resigned as deputy ‘oil inspector three months be- fore the expiration of his time and the abolishment of the office, yet the Governor appointed a man to fil out the time—doing nothing but drawing the tax- payers’ money. He dodged this question, The contingent fund. He asked six thousand dollars more than any other governcr, and to keep up the mansion he asked fora thousand more. Over five hundred prisoners were removed from Lansing yet the expenses continued, and a mom- ber of the prison board was so disgusted that he became ill, re- signed and went home. He fails to answer the Senator on the penitentiary question, in fact he does not answer any of the questions against his hindegar- ten experience The Governor charges Senator Curtis with being responsible fur the act of the legislature that elected him United States Sen- ator, Just as well hold him re- sponsicle for the election of the present governor of Kansas and the foolish mistakes he has made. We know the Senator was not responsible for the nomination of Gov, Stubbs, and believe he is sorry of the crime of voting for his election. Stubbs is not a Republican nor does he care what beccme: of the party so long as he is able to lead a few idle followers. He is wrecking the party in Kansasand if men like the Senator fails to come to its rescue there will be no Republican party in the Sun- flower state. | The New York committee who Kansas want is enough money to cerry on the affairs of the state but not to be hoarded up for some middle man to pocket. ‘The people of Kansas are for Curtis and so is President Taft and the White House. Tuk Topeka Capital sensibly remarks that itis a good time for President Taft to restore the wrongfully discharged soldiers back to the army. Iv 1s now up to Congressman Anthony and Senator Curtis to rescue the Republican party in Kansas fromm the hands of the pobltical pirates. | Tm voters cf Kansas should vot lose sipht cf our mary edu- ote ab nstitut ons aad public Seok ‘Lhe state upertotens dentof public instructions is. a posi nouf ge vein perience ard agord: anshould be in control Lhere has been eons terable tath abuut difluient men iorthe place, but roa eectns to suit the peo- ple os well ae Superintendent Faitebild, and if fe will consent to make the race the people wilt again honor him with their con- fidence.
