A special feature of particular In-'

pointed out by Mr. Cnnvill In his:

It was stated ut the meeting by the
Oregon delegation that tbuy wouni
u.se iiuir luiiueuce in every manner
to help expedite the passage of the
remedial soldier legislation and all
expressed themselves as favorably In-
lined.
"While the representative from
Oregon was attending this meeting
members of. the legion from other
states were likewise waiting on their
congressmen and the poll of the
opinions there gained show that con
gress is overwhelmingly In favor of
Fome soldier legislation along the
tines of adjusted compensation. Con
siderable difference of opinion exists,
however, as to the proper means of
financing this legislation, and it ap
pears doubtful If immediate action
con lw secured. It seems certain at
this time, however, that the matter
will be adjusted before next winter,
when a large number of men will
ne'd the money."

Famous Drama be
Played Wednesday
'Shepherd of the H1U" on dt the
most popular plays ot the century ;
will be the next offering ot the ai
caiur Stock Company at the Antler
Theater. Wednesday. April 7th. This
it one of the most pretentious pro
ductions to be presented by the Al
caiar stock Company, each ot the
players have unusually strong parts
and the play Is of the calibre that
requires the full strength otf the
company In presenting this most re
markable drama of mountain life.
The story ot the play has to do with
the bumble people ot the mountains
who are In the state ot much bitter
feeling and with mauy unsolvable
mysteries that have kept theHe peo
ple In constant fear for many years.
There comes to these mountains one
day a stranger, who Is more or less
a cultured person, and accepts a
humble position at small pay. In
order that he may escape from the
vanities and conventionalities of the
big cities, dt which he has been
accustomed. Among these rough
mountaineers he finds much content
lives their lives and it Is not long
before he becomes friendly and' also
he adviser of many of these moun
taineers. The mysteries of the
mountains have terrified the people
of the mountains for years, and he
soon becomes master of the situation
and settles these mysteries in the
minds of all the people. The story
has Interwoven a slendld love story
that adds much heart -interest to
the play and then there Is much hu
mor, pathos, and tragedy to keep up
the interest lirom beginning to end,
hut the conclusion of the story Is
satisfactory to all the spectators.
