It is too bad that a number Of
Duluthians were not born few
hundred years ago. They would
have graced the old Spanish In
QUESTION.
Old John Barleycorn seems to
have hooked up with reckless au-
tomobile drivers to do all the dam
age possible in Superior between
now and July 1. =.
Hidden Hands and Big Interests
are wrestling by proxy in the Fiji
ty-seventh legislative district,
'Chawley Adams and Hank Cheadle
holding the proxies.
Uncle Bob promises all his poll
tical influence to Magic for sher-
iff. What Uncle Bob lacks in in
fuence he expects to make up with
use of that mammoth Mormon car.
When it comes to renting halls,
a number Of Duluth patriots look
on a contract as "a mere scrap of
paper" This community is be-
ing Germanized entirely too rap
idly.
Representative women say that
it's fortunate for congressman
Miller that they cannot vote. If
they possessed that sweet boon,
they, would trot out a Jeanette
Rankin.
The daily papers declare that
Capt. EvSmith soon will be as
signed to command Of a war YES
sci. Personally, the captain ad-
mits that he expects nothing of
higher rank than first mate.
With bull-dozing Bob McKer-
cher debating to American citi-
zens as to what they may do and
may not do, Duluthians can form
some idea of what ignorant pea
SAINT domination means in Russia.
Honest John Lind strenuously
resents these wholesale charges
of disloyalty against the sturdy
people of Minnesota. These dis
loyalty charges, like curses and
chickens, very likely will come
home to roost.
If the dear old Commercial Club
would find out why the Mesaba
range towns hate Duluth and why
the business men buy so heavily in
Minneapolis, it might be about as
profitable as pulling the hair Of
the U. S. Steel Corporation.
Now that Superior is going dry,
there are rumors that cal" Wag-
ner thinks seriously of joining
Billy Sundays personal staff.
Pouring the Water of Life ought
to come easy to a man who has
poured oceans of booze and beer.
It's wonder that Minnesota s
kept-press does not try to make
John Lind out a traitor and blow
him off the map because he bucks
Burnquist the Little. That would
be some job, for John Lind is one
Of the biggest men in the North
Star state.
A farmer sends his sons to fight
the Huns. He buys Liberty bonds,
Thrift stamps and donates liber-
ally to the Red Cross. He also
raises the maximum acreage of
crops and sells them at prices
fixed by the government. Then,
because he refuses to vote for the
candidate of the Big Interests, he
is bounded all over his county on
a false, fake charge of disloyalty.
Is this Germany or free America?
Rev. FIR. Iciek either must have
over-indulged in Elk's milk or
else have been burning up with a
desire to be known as the Billy
Sunday Of Duluth.
It's wonderful how Millionaire
Hawkins neglects his delightful
task of cutting coupons merely to
save the peasants Of Minnesota
from themselves.

The German bombardment opened

directed especially against the Ameri-

intense, and at the end of two hours
the German commander sent forward

Reports That Pope Intends to Is
sue New Offer Believed
Propaganda

Washington, D. c., May 2.--Wireless
dispatches dated The Hague and
quoting Cologne newspapers as say
ing Pope Benedict intends to issue a
new peace offer on May 10 were ac-
cepted in official circles here today as
another bit of German propaganda.
Heretofore the state department has
been able to gather an intimation OF
the purpose of the pontiff to initiate
peace proposals, but not suggestion
OF such an intention has come from
any source recently. The statement
in the dispatch that the news of the
Pope's purpose had reached Berlin,
Where it has been received sympa
thetically," was taken here to indicate
German influence is being brought to
bear on the p0ntiff to intervene. AS
Stunning such to be the case, officials
feel that there might he some grounds
for believing the Germans now re.
cognize their efforts toattain military
decision in the west this summer are
doomed to failure.

commanders it was outside the real
immediate danger.
Mesopotamia Quiet.
The fighting on all the other fronts
except in Palestine and Mesopotamia,
was of minor character, in both
the latter theatres, however, the Brit
ish have returned to the attack and
gained important successes over the
Turks. Progress has been made north
Of Bagdad along the Tigris river and
in Palestine several positions have
been captured and prisoners taken.
German newspapers have taken
another tangent in their talk of peace.
1t is asserted by a Cologne Journal
that Pope Benedict on Whit-Sunday,
May 10, will put forward concrete Of
fers to mediate between the warning
factions. The reported intention Of
Pope is said to have sympathetic
reception in Berlin. There is no con-
firmation from any source that the
Pontiff purposes again to offer his
services in the direction of peace.

THREE AMERICAS
RAILWAY PROJECT
Proposed Scheme to Connect Two Con-
tinents With Great CONNER
cial Railway.

+ NEW YORK. Dec 3l-The phenomenal
development of trade between Latin Amer
ica and the United States during the past
four years has given rise to revival Of
the idea of a great railway running almost
the entire length of the Western Henri
sphere and forming the backbone of COM
mercial relations between the northern
and the southern continent. The idea of
such a railway is by no means new 1t
WAS the subject of much discussion thirty
seven years ago
The road was to be known as The
Three Americas Railway" 1t was to be
more than 1900 miles long, extending from
Hudson Bay, in a line as nearly equidls-
tant as possible from the Atlantic and
Pacific odlans, southwark through the
United States, Central and South Ameri-
Ca.
Under the revived impetus that is sure
to be given to business relations between
North America and South America under
postwar conditions, consideration is being
given once more to the problem of trans
portation facilities other than by water
lines, and Three Americas Railway
if it could be created, is presented as a
scheme for increasing communications with
Latin America.
The cost of trunk line such as is de-
scribed would be of course, very great,
but the project as far as the United States
is concerned is not fraught with as many
difficulties as would appear at first glance
The great trunk line would connect with
the transcontinental lines of this country
and with the existing railroads in Central
| America and South America
/ Such railroad would bring with il
not alone an enormous increase i'll trade
relations, but would increase social inter.
| communication between all of the Ameri-
can republics. Its political consequences
| in shaping the future of the Americas
would undoubtedly be great. 1t would
open up for cultivation thousands of square
miles, especially in South America, now
practically uninhabitable because of the
lack of communication with the outside
world.
