METHODS OF TAXATION
AROUSE SECESSION IN
Citizens Desire that. State
Shall he Divided Tnto
Two Common wealths.
IS AN OLD COMPLAINT
WASHINGTON. Sept. 19 The re
cent threat of a body of citizens in
California to establish another state
within California borders, because of
dissatisfaction with taxation methods,
has attract'-d the attention of officials
here. The United States constitution
provides that "no new state shall In
formed or erected within the jurisdic
tion of any other state: imr any state
be formed by the Jure (no, of two or
more states, or parts of states, with
out the consent of the legislatures of
the states concerned as well as the
congress "
This constitutional provision togeth
er" with .ne manner in which Cali
fornia was carved out of other terri
tory are pointed to as reasons why
such a threat would likely never
reach more definite form. It Is not
the first time that the miestion of I he
division of California has arisen, for
taxation was a problem that started
suih an agitation as long ago as
1849. At that time, during the con
stitutional convention at Monterey
there was talk of overthrowing the
northern Influence In California, then
s territory and so to make possible
an ultimate division of the state, in
case the southern part proved bo be
adapted to slave life.
Not long before the outbreak of the
Civil war there was renewed "talk" of
division of the state and there have
been meetings In Iot Angeles and
Santa Barbara county and elsewhere
at various limes in a sporadic elTort
along this line.

KYHNKV, ,K. 1), .Sept. 19. New
light was thrown on tile controversy
over the discovery of the North pole,
today on the arrival of the steamer
T.vrlan, from liattle harbor, where
the correspondents learned from two
members of Commander Peary's ex
pedition that Dr. Frederick A. Cook
had met tin m at F.tah and had men
tioned nothing of discovering the pole.
When Harry Whitney, ticorge Nor
ton and Ijjined went to Ktah on the
Krlk, to bring provisions for Comman
der IVary, both Norton and learned
turned back and Whitney obtained
permission from Commander Peary
to remain at the Ktah station. Com

William Pritehard. assistant conk nf

Murphy Tells Ills Story.
Murphy, telling of his experience at
Ktah, said to the newspaper men:
"CommnnSyr Peary told me to go
ashore at Ktah to guard th,- stop's
which I saw taken from the Itoose
vi It and the l.'rlk. Pritehard was w ith
me. Some time last spring a white
man came into camp and Mr. Whit

did not stay long in camp and soon
