With the new cabinet crisis thus

An Amsterdam dispatch quotes a
tung, as reported the forthcoming ap-
tung, as reorting the forthcoming ap-
ointment of Venizelos, allies strong

A Reuter- telegram from Athens as
serts the Greek Premier's resigna-
ton was accepted. This is contradict

request of King Constantine and an
expression of confidence from the dip
lomatic representatives of the en-
tente.

MOTHER RAILROAD
That Seems to be the Sure Pros
poets for Mexico-It's the Santa
Fe, and Not the Burlington.

A few days ago the st. Louis Re-
public contained the following:
The Santa Fe will enter st. Louis
in few months. st. Louis will have
another railroad, one of the greatest
and largest in America, with more
than IL 900 miles of road. The ben
efits from the acquisition of this pro-
digious system will be multifarious.
The Santa Fe is a distinctive rail
road, and it's territory, which is pc
culiarly Santa Fe territory, might
be designated by the worldwide
known and historic trademark of
the swastika emblem, bearing on the
horizontal crosspiece the name of the
small, old New Mexican town that
lent the big, modern railroad a win
ming, romantic, poetic title.
The averment that the Santa Fe
will enter st. Louis should be modi-
fed into the assertion that the Santa
Fe already is in st. Louis. While it
is true a connecting line must be con-
structed in Missouri, between Car
rollton and Mexico, before the sys-
tenn begins running it's own trains
into st. Louis over its own tracks,
the fact is equally true, altho but lit
tie known, that the Santa Fe has
been the proprietor of terminal land
in st. Louis for three months.
Real estate transfers have not de-
noted the deciding of property to the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Rail-
way, which is the official title of the
company. But the land has been
bought and is held in trust by agents,
who will convey it to the road, prob
ably soon after the first of the year.
So, the statement is justified by
transact rs so substantial as the ex-
change of money for land that the
Santa Fe already is in st. Louis.
The plan of the Santa Fe, and this
has been acknowledged by officers of
the company, is to build the con-
Meeting road between CarroIlton and
Mexico and operate trains into St.
Louis over the Burlington tracks
from Mexico.

Democratic and Republican parties
were elected, also a County Court,
who picked the election judges. Then
the clerks were chosen.

Eating.

Des Moines, Iowa, Nov. And
now it's corn meal that is being rec
commended by the State Food and
