Sheep of Palestine

DAMASCUS, Syria. -P1- Modern

installed in the shade of the century
old cedars of Lebanon.
The French ministry Of agriculture
experts, under whose auspices the
new establishment is being made, are
firm believers in the Voronoff meth
cd, since several years of experiment
on government farms in Algeria es-
tabiished the possibility Of strength
ening, by its use, breeds of sheep
weakened by a too warm climate.
At the invitation of the ministry
Doctor Voronoff has just made a
tour Of Syria, during which he gave
practical instruction in his method
to the medical and veterinary stats,
and as q result the decision was
made TO open an official center for
more extended research work in the
Lebanon region, from which the
whole country will benefit. .

A railroad that would run from
Galveston, Texas, to Kansas City,
Missouri, and north as fasf as Min
nesota was the project that G.. G.
Forshey, a distinguished. engineer,
enthusiastically suggested to the
mayor of Galveston in July, 1866.
A reprint Of his recommendations,
in the form of a letter to the may
OF, published in the Galveston
News" for August 10, 1862, has
recently come to light among some
old records in the possession of the
Minnesota Historical society, and
it throws some interesting side
lights on the railroad history of the
North Star State. On: the reprint
is a notation in the handwriting
Of Albert M. Lea, who as a men,
Der of the Kearny expedition of
1885 explored and mapped the
region around the Minnesota lake
and town that now bear his name,
and who in the late sixties was liv-
ing in Galveston. e
In his letter Forshey pointed out
that although most Of the states
along the Mississippi had railroad
facilities "alI of them have a di-
rection nearly east and west" and
"none run from north to south. I"
He contended that the vast in
terror region to the west needed a
director. outlet to the Gulf" thru
Galveston. Definite plans for a
route were submitted; the road
was to run northwest from Calves
ton to- Houston, then north to the
great bend of the Missouri, and
finally it would sweep up through
Iowa and Minnesota" The plans
for the northern portion were only
tentative, but the promoter believ-
ed it might be we'll to have the
road go through DesM oines, then
to connect with the Minnesota Val
ley at Mankato, and finally to
make the terminus at st. Paul,s

Where Alligator Lies
in Wait for It's Prey

The rivers and estuaries Of
northern Australia spread out over
the country in great mud-fiats in
tersected by shallow creeks, while
everywhere as waterside growth
one finds the eternal mangrove.
Along the banks of these creeks
and across the mud-flats lie the
bfackfellOws' pads or paths, worn
and kept bare by the constant
passing Of feet; and in some reedy
bed or muddy pool beside these
paths the cunning alligator" will
lie waiting for its prey. Il.
1t will remain thus, quite mo-
tionless, for days, but let some un-
wary creature happen along-a
woman a dog, a kangaroo-and In
stantly it Is on the alert. With ex-
quisite judgment the foul brute
will await the exact second for
action; then great armored tail
lashes up out of the mud, with one
tremendous sweep, knocking the
hapless victim into the water.
Quicker than a terrier worrying
a rat the terrible jaws follow. up
the blow, and before the luckless
prey quite realizes what has hap
pened the great teeth crush
through flesh and bone and all Is
over. :.
Many white men have been
caught that way, and no expert
enced bushman will walk along
side or camp close to a creek or
waterhole, no matter how enticing
the place may seem. At night the
hungry brutes are apt to leave the
water, and it would be a terrible
awakening to feel the grip Of those
savage jaws as they closed on
ones body and dragged one off to
q hideous death.-Exchange.

Shipstead Says He Has
No Presidential Candidate
Attitude on the 18th Amendment
Will be Guided by Mandate ,
ls% From People

Minneapolis, Oct. 29.-Senator
Henrik Shipstead, repeatedly chad
lenged during the. past month by
Arthur E.. Nelson, his Republican
opponent, to state his position on
the prohibition law and the presi-
dental race. today gave his stand
on those questions.
Shipstead in speech over radio
station WCCO said that he would
not vote for a measure "that in
manner or spirit violates the
Eighteenth amendment without a
mandate from the people,"
Concerning his preference be-
tween Herbert Hoover or Governor
Smith the Farmer-Labor candidate
for reelection said his party had
no candidate in the field and he
would not dictate how the individ-
ual voters should cast their ballot.
"The Farmer-Labor party has
no presidential nominee or~candi-
date" Shipstead said, land the
question of which of the candi-
dates is to receive our vote is one
of individual decision.
81 consider it would be improp-
err for me to declare my. individual
choice for the reason that such ac-
ton might be construed as an at
tempt on my part to dictate to the
members Of my party"
~ While Senator Shipstead made
no reference to Nelson his state
ments were considered a direct re-
ply for the questions propounded
b. the Republican candidate. 3.
AT the same time Shipstead made
it clear that he was standing on
his own feet in the present cam
pa. gn, issuing his own statements
and speaking for himself. .
e This particular part of his ad-
dress was taken as an answer to,
tha challenge of Ernest Lundeen,
Farmer-Labor candidate for gov
ernor, to debate with Nelson on
Shipstead's behalf.

that distribution through the
Northwest of oil which will be

at the head of the barge line. He
indicated that this expansion will
be: from the storage facilities in

It is planned to terminate the
pipe line at a point in northern
Iowa on the river and to build a
large: refinery there. ~.':...
Plan Private Barge Line
From there to st. Paul, the oil
for distribution through Minneso-
ia, the Dakotas and Wisconsin will
be transported by a private barge
line. All of the oil for Northwest
distribution therefore, will be
brought to St. Paul and distribut-
ed from here.
Under the new barge sys-
tenn, all oil for northwest distri-
button would move by rail out of
St. Paul.

It was pointed out, also, that in
proceeding with this $4,000, 900
program, the company is looking
to opening of the St. Lawrence
waterway so that the movement of
oil from the end of the pipe line
ION the Mississippi river would be

Trainmen's Wages Raised
by the Emergency Board
Men and Companies are Given 80
Days to Act-Public Will
Pay Bill

Washington, Oct. 3O.-The emer-
gency board appointed by Presi-
dent Coolidge to investigate the
wage dispute on western railroads
has recommended a 61a per cent
increase in wages without change
of rules, or alternatively, a 71s
per cent increase if certain rules
are eliminated.
Further, the arbitration board
proposed that whichever alterna-
tive the railroads and train service
unions accepted should be put in
to effect retroactively, and the
terms made to apply as of MAY
I, 1928, date on which the con-
troversy developed.
The solution Of the controversy
suggested dealt with the discussion
