Mandan Fair to Have
Record Stock Exhibit

Never in the history OF western
North Dakota has such a demand
been made upon the directors OF the
Missouri Slope Fair for space IN the
livestock barns, sheep and swine pens.
Because of the number of cXhibi-
tors who wish to show high grade
livestock at the fair, July %. 70, 80
and 81, the directors have been forced
to limit some of the larger exhibitors
to less than the number of animals
they desire to enter. Preference has
been given to North Dakota exhibi-
tors. One California swine breeder
wanted Is pens to exhibit special
prize stock but the hog barns were
already crowded.
The situation in the livestock de-
partment makes imperative the addi-
ton of further buildings before the
1882 fair.
The big Doddson world fair shows
which will set up its midway at the
Slope Fair, this week, is appearing at
the state fair in Fargo and next week
will 60 to the state fair at Grand

West African Colony
of Liberia Flourishing

The free negro republic of Liberia
was established In West Africa long
before slavery was abolished in this
country. The American Colonization
society was formed in December, 1916,
for the purpose Of colonizing part of
Africa with freed negroes. The first
company of colonists. consisting of 8S
persons sailed in 1920, but on arriv-
ing in Sierra Leone many of them
succumbed to malaria. Colonization
under the auspices of the American
Colonization society continued until
1S47, when the society withdrew its
active assistance and urged the set
tiers to set up an independent form
of government. A constitution pat
termed after that Of the United States
was adopted in July, 1S47. At that
time the number of immigrants from
America and their descendants was
about 5000. At the present time there
are about 10000 American-Liberians,
of whom about half live in the city of
Monrovia the capital and chief port
The native population numbers about

Famous Botanic Garden

The Botanic garden in Washington
was established by the Columbian In
stitute for the Promotion Of Arts and
Sciences, incorporated by an act of
congress April 20, 1918. The present
site was granted by congress in 1920
and there is tradition that George
Washington contemplated the estab-
lishment of gardens In this locality.
Up to 1886 no improvements had been
made. The tract was q stagnant and
malarial swamp and congress was
prevailed upon to make an appropri-
alton Of $1,000 for improvements. The
real beginning, however, Of the Botan-
ic garden dates from the Wilkes ex-
ploration expedition Of 1888 to 1S42.
The staff included q botanist, w. D.
Breckenridge, who brought back from
an expedition to the South seas a
large collection Of specimens, includ-
Ing seeds and cuttings This formed
the nucleus Of the botanical collec-
tion.

Too Many Kind Things

generation of teachers and preachers

waster, after ALL Apparently, tho
United States Department Of Agricul
ture has been trying him out-an6
finding him out In the process. The
researches show that the maximum
speed of the bee Is % miles an hour
which motorists agree is pretty poor
and that, as rule, the insect doesn't
fly any faster than 10. But apparent
ly we must always have something to
set an example. Just as America
proves the bee laggard, along comes
Carmarthenshire (Wales) with a COW
that is bang up to date. This COW is
so much of an enthusiast for modern
methods that she refuses to be MIXED
by hand. If anyone tries to insult her
in this way she kicks the bucket out
OF doors. But she submits willingly
to the milking machine and gives a
good yield.

Crossing Behring Straits

1t Is only in comparatively recent
years that the origin Of man has been
thrust by geologists, anthropologists,
biologists and other scientists far
enough back into the misty past to
admit of common population of Asia
and North America because of land
connection between them, and their
separation by destruction Of this con-
Meeting link, thus rendering any cross
Ing OF the now separating waters un-
necessary. Perhaps no canoe ever
crossed Behring straits until Behring
himself crossed 1t and discovered the
Alaskan coast some two centuries
ago. Still more unlikely is 1t that the
broad Pacific was crossed In crude
canoes from island group to group,
the nearest group to America being
some 1000 miles distant.

Thompson Pushing Union
Case at Time of Death

Chicago (ILNS) - When Hope
Thompson noted labor attorney. died
on June 16 his death left as unfin-
ished business the case of the Inter
national Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers against the Western Union
Telegraph Company, which originat-
ed in Chicago in 1924 and grew out
of the refusal of members of the
brotherhood to work on building prof.
ects with the non-union employers of
the Western Union Company.
The telegraph corporation took
court action to compel the union to
recede from its position. Recently the
company obtained a favorable de-
cision in the United States circuit
court of appeals, and the union.
through Mr.. Thompson, appealed the
case to the United States supreme
court.

ANTI-INJUNCTION
Bills Signed By Pennsylvan-
las Governor
By STAFF CORRESPONDENT

Harrisburg, Pa. (ILNS) Pin
chot has signed the two anti-injun-
tion bills and the bill setting up strict
qualifications for deputy sheriffs
Pennsylvania, thanks to the forces
of organized labor and the progress
sives that battled for these measures,
sports cleaner face than usual.
At least, no longer will Pennsyl-
wanna Judge issue temporary injunc-
ton against union and let it stand
for ten years until more fair-minded
Judge throws it into the wastebasket
as has occurred in Philadelphia.
Under the new law preliminary de-
crees are good for only five days.
Then public hearing must be held
to make it permanent or worthless.
More than that, the employer must
post bond for costs to be paid
should his demand for "protection
against the union be found ridiculous.
ihio iSdCuES VI Tie law dlOHe is eX-
pected to lessen the rush of bosses to
the courts for strikebreaking DEGREES.
The new law also does away with
the un-American business of a mill
boss tipping off judge to contempt
of court committed by some unsus-
pecting picket, whereupon the Judge
cites the picket for contempt, presses
the charges himself, hears the case
himself and then pronounces sentence,
usually an irdeterminate one.
The third bill establishes the quail
fications of deputy sheriffs, the first
resort of panicstricken employers in
strike times.
1t provides that the sheriff of the
county must investigate all applicants
for deputies commissions. They are
required to have lived one year in the
county and to have no criminal record
for ten years back
This cuts off automatically the
stream of underworld characters
drawn to strike situations through
the employers demands for adequate
protection"

are generally bought by firms who

PUBLIC HEALTH PLAN
BACKED BY UNIONISTS

county health departments, preserves
local control, assures efficient medical
and nursing service and provides for
additional hospitals to accommodate
larger number of durable patients.
