ROME, April ga dispatch to the
Idea Nazionale from Schenlco says
the evacuation of the Dslmatisn
Islands of Lesina and LISA last week
and the passing of the Islands into
Jugo-Slay control provoked heart
rending scenes, especially a. Citta-

Many OF the people, the dispatch
asserts, decided to leave rather than
live under the rule of their hereditary
foes. They carried away even the
coffins containing their dead and also

OIL TEST
HOLDS INTEREST

What may prove one of the most
unique tests ever undertaken In oil
fields of Natrona county Is now un-
der why in h well which tho Fargo
Oil company is drilling to tho deep
sands of h Poison Spider feid. Al.
ready this well has been carried
through the Dakota sandstone which
carried water in the held.
q. The sand which was encountered at
a depth OF $50 feet. was penetrated
with 15-inch casing. The size of the
hole permitted q tremendous fiow OF
water and for a time It appeared to
be an im~possibility to psnetrate the
formation because of the water pres
sure. After IS hours of steady work
ing however. the sand was penetrated
and casing set to shut of the water.
The hole at its present size. 15h
inches. win be carried to a depth of
1855 feet. the depth ut which lucra-
tive producing gas sands are encoun-
tered in the Sundance formation. At
this point the size of the hole will be
further reduced and n 1sh inch hole
will be carried to n 9,0oo-foot level
SO that an s-inch hole can be carried
to the Embar, Tensleep or Amsden
formations. to fully test the oil pro.
ducing possibilities OF these sands.
These lower horizons should be en-
countered in order between $500 and
1000 feet
Considerable difficulty has already
been overcome In drilling the Fargo
test because of tho size Of the hole
which is being carried to the lower
sands. Three fishing Jobs have been
surmounted although at times it
looked like It would be necessary to
abandon the hole.
With the difficult surface forma-
lions penetrated and smooth sailing
expected with the smaller hole it is
believed that rapid progress can now
be made in drilling the test. The
tools being - in furthering the
test after the first reduction in the
size OF the casing will weigh in ex-
cess Of a ton. This indicates that
rapid progress should be made in
pounding through the deep forma-
tons.

RAILROADS FACING CRISIS

A great loaI of interesting testimony was brought out in the investigation of railroad matters by the United States senate committee on interstate mmerce Some of the state mcnts by witnesses are well calculated to i'm press persons 'sirous of getting at the exact truth regarding the railroads. Senator Cum minS of Iowa. chairman of the committee and who has given long and careful study to the transportation Iroblem was moved to say that the present situation "chaIenges the peI1nan- encc of the private operation of raiways.'
 That is interpreted as hint that if existing conditions are not improved government owner ship and operation may be the outcome. It is hardly necessary to say that the government ownership idea is abhorrcnt to the over whcming majority of the American people, as it is to clcar-thinking statesmanship of the country But it is evident that the railroads are facing crisis, and that a large part of their troubles may be fairly attributed to prac- ticcs which marked the period of government control during the war The railroad com pIications call for patience and wisdom in bringing about an adjustment that will be equitable to all conccmed-Troy Times

THE ALASKA A PERMANENT WRECK

Divers have reported that the steamship Alaska, long a favorite passenger ship on the Alaska and the Portland-San Francisco routes, is wrecked beyond the possibility of salvage. She will be permanently added to the list of wrocks that have occurred along the Pacific Coast. Her grave will be among many that cluster about the entrance to Humbolt Bay, California. Of course the greater grief in con necton with the disaster is because of the two score lives that were sacrificed, but many an Alaskan will feel the loss of the ship itself as that of an old friend The Alaska Steam ship Company has been particularly mfort- unate in the loss of the Alaska and the Mari rosa. They were both finely adopted to the Alaska traffic and it is too bad that both are not yet available to obey call for service in these waters when more vessels shall be needed in the North.

CAN THEY GO THE DISTANCE

He who runs and reads can have no doubt but that Alaska is most of the time in the minds of the new administration. Nobody who reads can doubt but that the administration is going to start something in Alaska, and that they are working now for clear start When- ever and wherever the administration leaders speak of Alaska, and that is in many places and much of the time, they evidence their in tenton They differ little in details as to what is needed to "start' in Alaska, and the statement of Secretary Fall made in Seattle is the basis of all their statemcnts-what they need IS:
 '"Capital must be offered inducements that will get it into Alaska;
 "Fifty-seven varieties of bureaus cannot fuction-onc-man rule must be obtained;
 '''Thc laws relating to the territory must be changed and liberaIized if capital is to get into Alaska"
 Given onp-man control of Alaska, throwing the 'bridle" off the laws of Alaska, and cap itaI will he ready t0 move in and do the rest. They talk this talk so much that it Is evident they are going to put the program thru if the administration Is strong enough to do so. May be 1t is.
 No Alaskan with business sense would op- pose onc-man rule for Alaska PROVIDED THAT AN ALASKAN WAS NAMED AS THE MAN. Few Alaskans, and few people anywhere, would agree eff they owned all the wealth of the world) to have a stranger who did not know them or their needs or desires take full charge of all their wealth and estate and administer it without their approval and without consulting the original owner, espec- ally with the laws that may now protect such vested wealth so 'Iibrrazcd" that there l. (; Il and territorial interest of Secretary Fall in Alaska is best indicated by the fact that to date he has not answered letter addressed to him by Alaska bodies which are striving for the upbuding of Alaska. He has never seen Alaska and possibly never may, but he is ready today without experience or knowj- edge to tell Alaska and the world just what Alaska needs and must have-one-man rule, and that man $ name Albert Bacon Fall. Few commercial clubs would care to turn over th2i work to a man who will not even answer their letters on matters of business of the territory.
 They have already introduced three bills along the onenan rule line. The first coumd not get by, the second proved that it couldn I Withing ''fiXing' and the third, or ''fiNing'' bill is under consideration now. The first de manded more than it could hope to get, the second demanded little bit less, and the third demaids even less, but ''one-man rule' is the unchanged demand in all of them The one man would undoubtedly be satisfied with his great powers for good or ill for the territory and its vast resources, but the question with us s'"Would Alaska be satisfed?'
 Frankly, we don't believe it would. Also, we don't believe that congress will be allowed to give out such responsibility and risk to any man in the United States
