PLANS FOOTBALL BOWL
Minnesota to Erect Monster Stadium
on Yale Lines
Minneapolis, Veb. 1C The University
of Minnesota is going to spend approxi
mately $385,000 on a new football
stadium.
The stadium will be modeled on the
plan of the Yale bowl and will have a
heating capacity between -10,000 and
00,000. The students want it on pres
ent Northrop field, while some Minne
sota heads want it moved out to the
farm school, nway from the campus and
an inconvenient plnce.
Instead of the university paying for
it the athletic association will hell life
seats to prominent members of tljc
alumni, to be sold at any price that
the alumnus cares to pay. To start
with the Gopher School ha? about
!M00,000 surplus in the treasury.

What Lincoln said
(From an addrmte bj? Abrhaat
Lincoln to tho Workmen's
Assocjafion in 18t4)
"Property is the fruit of
labor; property is desir
able; is a positive good in
the world .... Let not
him who is houseless pull
down the house of another,
but let him work diligently
and build one for himself,
thus by example assuring
that his own shall be safe
from violence when built."

When the talk turns from politics to railroads, and the
traveler with the cocksure air breaks in with, "There's
an awful lot of 'water' in the railroads," here are some
hard-pan facts to give him :
American railroads have cost $80,900 a mile road
bed, structures, stations, yards, terminals, freight and
passenger trains everything from the great city term
inals to the last spike.
A good concrete -and -asphalt highway costs $36,000
a mile just a bare road, not counting the cost of cul
verts, bridges, etc.
Our railroads couldn't be duplicated today for
$150,000 a mile.
They are capitalized for only $71,000 a mile much
less than their actual value. . Seventy-one thousand
dollars today will buy one locomotive.
English railways are capitalized at $274,000 a mile; the
French at $155,000; German, $132,000; even in Canada
(still in pioneer development) they are capitalized at
$67,000 a mile. The average for all foreign countries
is $100,000.
i
Low capitalization and high operating efficiency have
enabled American railroads to pay the highest wages
while charging the lowest rates. '
