Samson at the Lyric
Tomorrow Night
When "Samson" was produced by
the Universal Film Co. it was con
ceded to be the most stupendous
production ever attempted by an
American picture company. The
production of this marvelous picture
required the investment of $100,000
and a caste of 2,000 people, many
of whom are the most popular favor
ites of the screen, inclnding J. War
ren Kerrigan, the one and only
matinee idol of the picture world,
and his sister, Kathleen Kerrigan,
of "Every Woman" renown.
This production in six parts is
without doubt the portrayal of the
most sensational story of ancient
t'.mes, and in spectacular effects is
equal to "Quo Vadis" and other
masterpieces of film production.
Unlike many spectacular produc
tions, however, "Samson" has a
.strong heart interest. Samson's de
sertion of his wife and his betrayal
by the beautiful Delilah, combined
with his breaking of the lion's jaw,
6laying 1,000 Philistines, burning
the corn fields and pulling down the
great temple, are all true to the
version and contribute to make this
feature one of the greatest film pro
ductions ever attempted. This film
has been shown in the largest thea
ters in the United States, including
the Republic Theater, New York
City, and all the principal cities of
the country. It was shown at the
Eaker Theater in Portland for one
week at advanced priren.
"Samson" will be at the Lyric for
one night only, Friday, December
11th. Admission, adults, 25 cents:
children, 15 cents.

Everybody Wants
to be City Marshal
What's the matter with candi
dates for city offices? They are as
scarce as hen's teeth. Outside of
the marshalship there seems to be
nothing stirring.
Dr. Edwards,
Judge Bowman
J. B. Shipp and
have been men
tioned for mayor but that is all.
Anyone of them would make a good
city officials Dr. Edwards is an old
hand at the business and knows the
ropes. Mr. Shipp is an experienced
councilman and is familiar with city
affairs. Judge Bowman will stay
put no matter where you place him.
Line 'em up on or before Wednes
day, December 16, so that the
names can be printed on the official
ballot.
Lake M. Bechtell and Dr. Hyde
are the only ones spoken of for city
treasurer and recorder respectively.
Both have served one year and have
qualified for another. The Ameri
can spirit of fair play generally
gives competent officers a compli
mentary term.
The dearth of aldermanic as
pirants is hard to account for. It
looks like an easy job with some
thing more than kicks in it. It
will be noticed that all councilmen
but one have cars. Councilman
Elkins has two. Now we don't
know whether there is any connec
tion between a councilman and a
car but if there is come out and get
an auto.
