ROADS ARGUING OVER CENTRAL OREGON LINES (Continued from pajfc 1) asked permission to proceed with its buildin unless the Southern Pacific would make additional concessions. The Southern Pa cific, in tiih. explained its unwill ingness to grant the conditions of the Oregon Trunk. The Oregon commission was asked to respond within 15 days to a request for a statement of its views, whereupon the interstate commerce commission will act up on the issue finally. The Oregon public service com mission in a telegram sent recent ly to the interstate commerce com mission at Washington, has re quested that no final action be taken in the Central Oregon rail road development case until such time as the local commission has been given an opportunity to be heard. "Press reports indicate," read the telegram, "that the. carriers are Tequired to file within a few days final reports concerning re sults of negotiations in the Oregon rail construction case. "On behalf of the state of Ore gon we request that we be furnish ed with copies of the reports and that no final determination be had thereon until we have; an oppor tunity for supplemental argument before the entire commission based on such reports abd existing record If our examination of such reports indicate the necessity. "We urge that such1 argument be had ijs soon after filing of re ports as practicable, ahd there be no unnecessary delay in this much needed rail construction." Governor Pierce joined in the telegram, with the result that the following reply was received at the executive department from Clyde E. Altchison, a member of the in terstate commerce commission. "Vmir 1oint wire of December 29 with public service icommission concerning Oregon rail construc tion cases has been received and will be given careful consideration In connection with any further proceeding in thene cases." The telegram was prepared by rhe public service i com mission when it was found that the Hill linnu and Southern Pacific com pany 'were unable to agree on-com- uon user privileges, ana mw ioe former corporation had requested permission of the interstate com merce commission to eonstruct an Independent llBo,frdui Bend to Klamath Falls. , :- .Members of the Ofegon public service coin mission explained to day that their only Interest, ia the case was to protect thje cltixens of Oregon, and obtain, for the state Mm railroad develoomient outlined by the eoimulssion mrc than two years ago.

The words are Madam's own; this is her spontaneous characterization of the Elsinore, which she loved in stantaneously and which, before many weeks, will bear her pic ture above the entrance to the lobby. Madame Kalich spent more than an hour yesterday afternoon ex ploring and exclaiming over the theater, on the stage of which, a few hours later, she made "Mag da" vibrate with the life of her own great personality. Madame Kalich has been; called "the Bern hardt of America," but there is a title that she likes even better, harking back to the days in the Bowery of New York city, and that ia "our Bertha." Madame was accompanied by her daughter, a piquantly lovely girl named Lillian. The two are inseparable. Lillian has received her formal education in New York city and at Bryn Mawr college. As we of the press waited in the ttc-ater lobby yesterday afternoon for the world's greatest dramatic actress to arrive for her interview, Madame's daughter divulged some thing of the exquisite companion ship that exists between them. She told of the Bernard Shaw it is their pleasure to know not ati all the "oere" the world has found Jiim; s,b.e cried out in ecstacy that the little stairway in the Elsinore's Gothic lobby reminded her of Lon don Tower; then when her mother came in. magnificent, electric, and full of grace, she sighed that it was a rainy day and Madame was only in stunning street clothes. "Mother is so gorgeous in fashion able dress," she confided, "I wish some day you might see her so." Madame's discriminating daugh ter believes that her distinguished mother is less like Bernhardt than sho is a combination or Bernhardt and Duse. "Bernhardt always had an artificiality and brittleness about her. Mother hasn't that. She has a tenderness and firmness instead." "To give and to give and to give is the important thing," said Madame, earnestly. "I want noth ing so much as to inspire the peo ple who hear me." Madame's crved is one of supreme generos ity toward mankind. She is an ardent devotee of beauty in any form. "All things good and beau tiful I love," she said, her eyes glowing as she heard the frag mentary story of the building of the Elsinore. "Such a man, such a poet, to dream a dream like this," she marveled, still thinking of George B. Guthrie. "Lillian," she said, turning to her daughter, "think what a won derful thing it is to leave New York city, that Paris of America, and away from all that sophisti cation, find out west, in a town in Oregon, the most beautiful theater in the world." "Magda," flawless from the standpoint of dramatic construc tion, carried through the entire first act before ever introducing the heroine. Another exception to the general rule was the consum mation of the climax off, instead of on. stage. Madame Kalich surrounded her self with a superb cast which was like a segment from life at the close of the 19th century. The action in the four acts all took place within the living room of the German home. The struggle swerved around the problem of an illegitimate child which was more precious to hte mother than any of the conven tions the stern, authoritative fath er upheld. She refused marriage to the child's father, maintaining only a great gratitude to him be cause he had raacre her a woman; in betraying her had caused her to struggle and realize all the power within her. Having been true to herself, she recognized no higher obligation, an'dfcher return home caused her father's death. Madame Kalich as the traged ienne is without peer, and a re turn engagement at the Elsinore is anticipated. Madame was greeted with a fur ore of applause which has been accorded no other artist at this theater. So insistent, and so re- NOBLE ANDREWS And His Sales Room Now Located At 217 S. High St: With E.

Out of the gratitude of her heart she expressed her love for Oregon, for the people of Oregon, who are children of suf fering and sacrificing pioneers; of her immediate acceptance of the Elsinore as the most beautiful theater in the world, and of the complete worthiness of Salem of this jewel. - For the first time In the history of the Salem theater Industry Portland drama lovers were at traded here for a distinctive per formance to see a magnificent woman In a magnificent role. The state settings were startl- ine in their appropriateness Schwartz, the father, and his wife, the step-mother, were "memorable figures who will be remembered alwavs In connection with "Mag- da."
