The First Anniversary.
1t is just year since the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul road inaugurated
its celebrated Pioneer Limited passen-
ger train service between Chicago,
Milwaukee, ST. Paul and Minneapolis.
This service marked n new era in the
railway world in the line of passenger
accommodations At a cost of q quar-
ter of million dollars that progressive
company furnished the travelling public
in its Pioneer Limited train, comforts
and facilities the best ever produced.
This train has been described many
times in newspapers and magazines,
but should be seen and examined to be
appreciated. In beauty of finish, rich.
ness and elegance of furnishing moth
ing equal to it has ever been attempted
by any other road. The car builders
were nearly year completing the
Pioneer Limited trains there are two
one leaving Chicago for the West
and the other leaving the Twin Cities
for the East every evening in the year.
and they stand to-day a monument to
the builders art. No regular passen-
ger train service in America is as well
known as the Pioneer Limited. From
the standpoint of passenger traffic the
past twelve months have been the
most successful in the history of the
st. Paul road, made so very largely by
the Pioneer Limited. The patronage
! of this service is a striking illustration
of the fact that the public appreciates a
| good thing. 1927

HE DEFIES THE PUBLIC
WHOSE INDIGNATION HIS MIS-
RAN WAR OFFICE AS ke.iTICAL MACHINE
Under him Corruption has eeen Rampant. Sol
diers Murdered by bis tmba'm med Beef
and Unsanitary Methods. He
Discredits imperial Policy.

London. July 1S.-The Times, in its
leading editorial article today, says:
"Alger has run the War Office as Il
political machine. Military posts have
been bestowed upon political friends
without regard to fitness or the interests
of the country. Dishonesty and corrup-
ton have been rampant wherever there
was public money to be handled. Amer
lean soldiers were killed by thousands
ON American soil by such agencies as
embalmed beef and scamdaious neglect
of elementary sanitation. As the head
is, SO we expect subordinates to be.
They were chosen without regard to fit
ness, but with every regard to political
service. Naturally they act as the poll
ticians they are. rather than as soldiers
and administrators, which they are not.
The new imperial policy of the United
States is thus discredited by associa-
tion with system OF more than common
corruptions. Mckinley, for some reason
or ether. is incapable of r:ddirg himself
of the incubus Of his Secretary, VINO,
evidently regarding himself as having
the President in his pocket, serenely
defies the public indignation that has
been aroused by his mismanagement."
