McCall Magazine for Dec., 3. — ' PULLAR & NIVEN MEMBERS OF LAND | EXPEDITION WELL mer Fkblaw, of Dr. McMillan’s Party Writes Letter to Hovey, Chair- man of COrocker Expedition. New York, Nov. 20.—All the mem- . bers of the Crocker Land Expedition, headed by Dr. Donald B. McMillan, were well on August 29, according to a letter written on that.date by Elmer Ekblaw, geologist of the party. Part of Ekblaw’s letter was made public today by Edmund Otis Hovey, chair- man of the committee in charge of the expedition. The letter was written aboard K. Rasmussen’s motor boat in a raging sea just south of Cape Alexander. In it Mr. Ekblaw says: “By a strange freak of luck, as Jot Small and T were fleeing before a storm in our little motor boat we met Knud. Rasmussen’s boat on its way to Etah with our mail and supplies. Both motor Boats at- tempted to get by Cape Alexander, but unable to dc so, we have turned back to our camp. Since his motor boat must start back at once there will be no chance for our letters, cable mes- sages and mail to get back to us.” | “Evidently,” Mr. Hovey explained, “the storm which was raging when Mr. Ekblaw's letter was written, and the | fact that he was going back to= Etah, kept Mr. Rasmussen from continuing kis journey to the Crocker Land party’s headquarters. Mr. Rasmussen apparently felt obliged to put back to North Star Bay for fear of getting caught in the ice at Etah. - . FOR EVERY SUFFERER - FROM CONSTIPATION Rheumasalts Insures Quick and Safe Relief The safest. most pleasant and quic! way to relieve constipation and ai misery and ills that go with it, is to dis- solve a little Rheumasalts in water and drink it while it is effervescing. Rheumasalts is a scientifically blended and chemically pure carbenated lithia drink that cleans out the stomach and intestines, eliminates toxins and poisons and leaves the intestinal canal clean and Ewect. It you are bothered with constipation, headaches, sallow skin, coated tonguc, bad breath, indigestion, billousness, neu- , ralgla or rheumatism, thcn you need Rheumasalts. Fine for both adults and Infants. It is a uric acid solvent as well as a sa- line laxative. Instead of “doping” yourself with drug-forming, heart-depressing “lax- ative” pills and tablets, take ither:nasalts. It is delicious to the taste and acts quickly without griping or sea. IRheumhsalts is as pure as the natural laxciive salts from the Mineral Springs. The next time vou need a laxative, ask your druggist for about five ounces of Rheumasalts. If he hasn’t the original Rheumasalts, write to the Rheumabath Company, Minneapolis, Minn., who will ¥ i Cleveland | plan | wills. | available only upon the death of the | however, have already become avail- | quence an_ organization | osition, not an altruistic dream. | dangering the lives of scores of per- be glad to see that you are supplied. REMOVE “HIGH-BROW,” PLACE “DOLLAR MARK”™ Poitical Reform Organizations Must “Come Down to Earth.” Baltimore, Nov. 20.—Political re- form organizations must ‘“come down to earth”; they must remoge , ‘“the sign of the ‘high brow’ and substitute the ‘dollar mark," which alone appar- ently, is sufficiently potent to be ef- fective,” according to a report to the Nutional Municipal league today by its committee on Plan of Political Organ- ization. The committee has not completed its work, and the report is described as only an “interlocutory expression.” It was prepared by the chairman, A. Lea Weil, president of the Voters League of Pittsburg. Text of Report. In part the report is as follows: “A plan of political organization which relies for its support upon that class who have reached the elevation where they look down upon selfishness and are moved solely by altruistic considerations, must fail. The num- ber is tao limited. “It will not do for the so-called ‘high brow’ to inveigh against the complacency of the average citizen. This gets him nowhere. It will not do to assume that all voters are cor. ruptly influenced when they support political faction. This presupposes the preponderance of corruption. The trouble is, perhaps, that while the one form of organization follows the natural instincts of man, the other ignores them and relies upon a con- ception of citizenship as appeals only to the “idealists, the theorists, the purists and the dreamers. A plan of political organization, to succeed, to secure the following required to win at the polls, must be built upon the mainspring of human action, to wit: self-interest. Your committee be- lieves that it can be demonstrated (ex- cept where the contest is purely per- sonal, between men, not measures), that in the campaign for good govern- ment, as contrasted with the machine gavernment, the selfish interests of the citizen are at stake. Too much stress is laid upon patriotism, civic pride and the like, and too little upon what the continuance of poor gov- ernment or institution of good, means to the purse and the person of the individual citizen.” Many Failed to Vote. There was much justification, the report continued, in the charge that a large number of those who were found among the reformers, so-called, did not qualify by registration or other legal formality to exercise the rights of citizenship, ‘‘the mere voice of civic obligation not being loud enough to call them from their per- sonal pursuits to the performance of, their public obligations.” A general awakening ‘was going on, however, -and. there: was: an ever: in- creasing number who wanted good government out of purely seifish mo- tives. Notes C'cveland Plan. As to the financing of such political organizations the report noted the plan, and urged that it might be followed by other cities. ““In the city of Cleveland the president of a large trust company conceived the of getting some of its citizens of wealth to provide in their wills for bequests to foundation, devoted to the city’s welfare, and a large amount, running up into millions, has been already thus incorporated in such The money, of cdurse, will be benefactors. Some of these amounts, able through death,. and in conse- is being ef- fected in that city having fo: its pur- pose the general welfare of the city.” Makes Several Suggestions. The report concluded with the com- mittee’s appeal for suggestions, as: “How best to show that good gov- ernment nieans personal good to an individual. “How to inform the community that good government is a selfish prop- ‘““‘How to remove from suth organi- zations the sign of the ‘high-brow’ and substitute the ‘dollar mark,’ which alone, apparently, is sufficiently po- tent to be effective. ' “How to bring such organizations down to earth where they will ap- peal to inhabitants thereof.” NGINE RUNS WILD, Erie Locomotive Rushes "Into Cleve- land at Rate of Fifty Miles an Hour. Cleveland, O., Nov. 20.—An Erle railroad engine traveling at an esti- mated speed of fifty miles an hour ran wild into Cleveland early today, en- sons at grade crossings and resulting in serious injury to J. S. Hitch, en gineer, of Youngstown, who jumped to avoid what he considered sure dcath. The fireman succeeded in stop- ping the engine at 55th street, near the heart of the city. i -When ten miles out of Cleveland the throttle of the ngine failed to respond to the engineer, and: as the engine lurched forward the coupling was broken from the tender, which was followed by a long freight train.
