SHIPPING FINE
BULLS TO BRAZIL
Or. Francis of A. & M. College
experimenting the Loading
at Galveston.

DIR. Mark Francis, professor of vet
erinary science at A. & NJ College,
left yesterday afternoon for Calves
ton to be present at the loading OF
eighteen high-bred bulls which are to
be a part of the herd that will be on
the syndicate ranch in Brazil, of which
Murde Mackenzie is the head.
The eighteen bulls, which were
shipped yesterday from the college by
fast freight, were sent here to be in
oculated against Texas fever.
The steamship Willesden is now
loading at Galveston for this shipment
of cattle, and in addition will take 800
head from the King ranch near Cor
pus Christi and 80 head from Hoven-
kamp at Fort Worth. There viii be
80 COW ponies and 30 cowboys who
'speak Spanish. The humane society
and the insurance companies require
that in loading these cattle there shall
be allowed 300 cubic feet of space for
each 1000 pounds of live weight 1t is
estimated that these cattle will re-
quire 5000 gallons of fresh water per
day, and as this quantity can not be
stored aboard the ship, it is under
stood that engines have been pro-
vided to condense sea water so as to
provide the quantity necessary. The
ship will also carry 700 or 800 tons of
hay. The cattle are shipped to the
Brazil Land. Cattle & Packing Com
pany. The destination by sea is San
Paulo, Brazil, and from there they are
to go 600 miles to the northwest in
land, where the syndicate has a range
of 100000 million acres.
Fever ticks from the Brazilian
ranch have been sent to DR.. Francis
and he is now experimenting with
them to see if the fever in Brazil is
of the same kind that is prevalent
among cattle in Texas, and he is max
ing cultures to see il the tick is the
same as the Texas tick.

THORsoN FOR THE PEOPLE.

National Committeeman ThOrSon
of Canton, was notified last week by
Chairman Hilles of the republican
national com mittee, that his presence
Is desired at meeting Of the commit
ttee in Chicago, The avowed purpose
of this meeting is to bring to judg-
ment certain members of the commi-
tee W no have by word or act signitied
an unwillingness to support the Taft
candidacy. Undoubtedly Mr.. Thor
son will be severely castigated and it
is altogether likely that he will be
ousted from the committee. Mr..
Thorson will plead guilty to insubor-
dination and if we know Thorson
the man, he will make on apology.
Tom Thorson is one of those essen
italy dangerous persons who are
loyal to the constituency which elects
them to uffice. South Dakota's ma
tional com mitteeman entertains the
same political views as the ll,OOO
majority of South Dakota republi-
cans who named him as their repre-
sentative in the councils of the party.
He does not hold ''card" in the
National Union of Steam roller
Chauffeurs. In fact Tom Thorson
along with several others. went on
''strike" last June in Chicago and has
been listed as unfair" ever since be-
cause he kept right on working in the
interests of the II, 900 majority.
Let them kick Tom Thorson out as
they choose. Mr.. Hilles cannot GUST
the South Dakotan from the republi-
can party of course though he may
fancy he is doing so. Mr.. Hilles and
the national committee have nothing
left now to console themselves with
but the title they have preempted.
They think they are the republican
party. Let them think it to their
hearts content while the real party.
the republican voters, forge ahead in
their work of making of republican
ism what was originally contemplat-
ed.
South Dakota would think less of

satisfactory to the crowd which de-
sires to GUST him. His title to repre-
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1912-09-20

sent the republican party of South
Dakota is clear because he was chosen
by the republican voters for that duty.
His title TO represent Penroses, Barn
eses, Cranes, Guggenheims or Lorim-
ers will not bear scrutiny because at
Chicago last June the national COM
mittee ruled against seating national
committee men Of the future who are
chosen by the people.
So let them kick Thorson out.
Meanwhile. Mr. Thorson permit us
to congratulate you on the manner in
which you have incurred the displeas-
ure of the crowd whose chief COM
plaint appears to be that you have
acted on the square with your con-
stituents.-SiouX Falls Press
