Has the North Pole been found ornot Dr Cook says he has discoveredit whllo Peary disputes this and saysthat the honor Is all his For our partwe do not know but one thing Is sureDr Cook has throughout the wholecontroversy acted a gentle-man while Commander Peary has al-

According to their sworn state-

It Is reported that Senator L WZlmm of St Augustine Is seriouslyconsidering becoming a candidate forCongress This Is conclusive evidencethat our esteemed friends health hasbeen completely restored since theadjournment of the last session of theLegislature for certainly no man notin the best of health would seriouslyconsider contesting with Frank Clarkfor the seat the latter now holds in

EDWARD HENRY HARRIMAN-

It true to say of Edward HenryHarriman that with all limit andfratlUtf The Wall Street Jour

he was ono of our created andin jt uitul citizen The evil thataitn do llvts after them the good isoft liurred with their bones but the

l uhicn E H Harriman may haveJane In the course of his long lightto attain supremacy in the railroadfield will not live for any long timewhile the good is patent to all men inthe great railroad system which hebuilt up and the great example whichle set for other railroads to follow-

It is too early to discuss at length-a career so complex and difficult butit may at least be said that E H Har-riman represented in his own personthe most Important movement for better methods in railroad managementwhich the United States has seenWhen the Union Pacific railroad wassold under foreclosure In the reconstruction period following the panicof theory held by a very consid-erable section of the financial districtwas that a railroad existed to be reconstructed by one or another of anumber of prominent financial Inter-ests about every ten years That wasnot Mr Harrimans theory of railroadmanagement

It is true that such as JhcIllinois Central and others

have a long record of probity andgood management but we are only-

a little way from the time when railroads as a rule were run with one eyeon the stock ticker However heavily-Mr Harriman may have been Interested In the stock market at timesIt did not influence his judgment inany way when he was building up thegreat properties which he controlled-

He needs no apology He dies at acomparatively early age for a man ofaffairs but he dies with the respectand admiration of men to whom hisname was a symbol for n very

class of finance not manyyears ago He shouldered an uglyburden where others shirked It at thetime of the life insurance Investiga-tions Men who condemned E H

Harriman then will admit now thatho was among the first to adapt himself to cleaner and wiser methods offinance

complished by individuals either act-

covered America It was one womanFlorence Nightingale that revolution-ized by her work in the Crimea sani-

tary and hospital service It was oneman Gutenberg that discoveredprinting

So with Dr Cook Ills expeditionwas not furnished by a government ora scientific society As compared withexpeditions so sent his was poorlyequipped yet he succeeded wher theyfailed This Is no reflection uponthose expeditions for Dr Cook un-

doubtedly profited by their experienceand the data they furnished Hint hehad the one advantage of having buthimself to consider In his quest forthe There was no conflict ofopinion about routes or methods oftravel and this fact with his scientificknowledge indomitable perseveranceand courage and favoring circum-stances enabled him to reach the poleand plant upon It the American flag
