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.

SENATOR CURTIS EXPOSES STUBBS' ADMINISTRATION The people of Kansas may ever continue to be proud of the Hon. Charles Curtis, then United States Senator who has always championed their cause for a square deal both in state and nation. He exponent of the kinderorten administration of Gov Stubbs' comes as a blessing to the taxpayer and for much good for the future. It will be an everlasting lesson to the voters of Kansas and 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 taxpayers and consumers being robbed, and saying elect them to office and the steal will stop. Now the real thing has been gotten at by Senator Curtis, who unearthed these pyrotechnic imaginators of things that do not exist nor never will. The Governor fails to answer the charges made against his administration by Senator Curtis Fred Jewell resigned as deputy oil inspector three months before the expiration of his time and the abolishment of the office, yet the Governor appointed a man to fill out the time—doing nothing but drawing the taxpayers' money. He dodged this question. The contingent fund. He asked six thousand dollars more than any other governor, and to keep up the mansion he asked for a thousand more. Over five hundred prisoners were removed from Lansing yet the expenses continued, and a member of the prison board was so disgusted that he became ill, resigned 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 kindergarten experience The Governor charges Senator Curtis with being responsible for the act of the legislature that elected him United States Senator. Just as well hold him responsicle 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 becomes of the party so long as he is able to lead a few idle followers. He is wrecking the party in Kansas and if men like the Senator fails to come to its rescue there will be no Republican party in the Sunflower state. The New York committee who came to Kansas to investigate the primary election law said the party had been handed a gold brick. What the people in Kansas want is enough money to carry 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. THE Topeka Capital sensibly remarks that it is a good time for President Taft to restore the wrongfully discharged soldiers back to the army. It is now up to Congressman Anthony and Senator Curtis to rescue the Republican party in Kansas from the hands of the political pirates. The voters of Kansas should not lose sight of our many educational institutions and public schools. The state superintendent of public instructions is a position of great importance and a good man should be in control. There has been considerable talk about different men for the place, but now seems to suit the people as well as Superintendent Faithchild, and if he will consent to make the race the people will again honor him with their confidence. He is a dignified gentleman and scholar and has done more to advance the public schools of Kansas than any of his predecessors. He is a natural educator and knows his profession. The taxpayers and patrons of the public schools are demanding his re election. Who is the Most Popular Lady? Your Vote May Decide. CONTESTANTS Minn Hooley Bell Morris, Coffeyville, Kansas Mrs. B. A.
