Carters' latest success, "The Eleventh Hour" will be the at traction at the Frazer on the 22d. In his latest effort Mr. Carter deals with life in and around Chicago. The theme is the old one of love, hatred and avarice as most plays are, but he has strayed from the beaten path of fiction and gives a story that we can see is profitable a fact that does not seem to strike authors frequent ly. The play is mounted in a gor geous manner, the last act costing 55000 to place upon the stage, which can be easily understood when it is explained that it is an exact counter part of the drawing room of one of the richest men in Chicago. With his consent photographs wereitaken and skilled artists were given full liberty to make a careful study of the origin al, so the counterfeit might be as near perfect as possible. Uncle Tom's Cabin Coming. Stetson's "Uncle Tom's Cabin" is the title of a really big company, which, under the management of Mr. Eeon Washburn, whose name has long been associated with up-to-date amusements, is to appear at the Fra zer on Tuesday, February 25th, 1902. The company comprises fifty people, including a dozen specialty artists, two quartettes, a supberb orchestra, and many colored comedians, who add to the big production not a little by their spontaneous wit and clever singing and dancing. Watch for the big parade. POSITION OF MOODY ON LAND LEASING. Favors No Bill That Would Not Pro tect the Small Settler. Congressman M. A. Moody iins made a statement of his positiou on the leas ing of the public domain, in which he says: The result of the enactment into law of section 7 of the bill would be compulsory fencing which would, for the small grower, be very expensive if not destructive. Fencing should be optional not compulsory, if permitted at all. I am not in favor of any bill which would not unquestionably secure to the small settler the use of a reasona ble proportion of the public range, nor which would in any way restrict the settlement of the country. This latter is a most Important feature. Within the present range area of Oregon there are thousands of places suitable for homestead, and any law enacted should be so framed as to stimulate settlement. Under my interpretation of this live stock measure, I can see no course open but to vigorously oppose it as 1 opposed similar measures last con gress; but I would appreciate a full discussion of the leading questions from those most interested.

Emil Oppenhoinier, a traveling man from San Francisco, who visits Pen dleton every month, expressed sur prise and disgust at the condition of things here at the present. time from liis standpoint. He said: "If this mar shal fight is kept up the town will be as dead as La Grande was when it nlnspil ilnwn cninhlinfr n. vnnr ntrn. Look at the streets. Why don't they !

"As I have said before. I regard wo man's right womon and the leaders hi tho new school of female progress as the worst enemies of the female sex," writes liis eminonce, Cardinal Gibbons," in the Ladies' Home Journal for Jan uary. "They teach that which robs womon of all that is amiable and gentle, tender and attractive, and which gives her nothing in return but masculine boldness and brazen effront ery. While professing to emancipate her from domestic sorvitude, they are making her the slave of her own ca prices and passions. She never feels at home except when abroad. When she is at home home is Irksome to her. She chafes and frets under the re straint and responsibility of domestic life. Her heart is abroad. It is ex ulting in Imagination in some social triumph, or reveling in some scene of gaiety and dissipation. Her husband comes to his home to find it empty, or occupied by one whose heart is void of nffection for him. Then arises dis putes, quarrels, recriminations, es trangements, and the last act in the drama is often divorce. I speak the sober truth when I affirm that for tho wrecks of families in our country, woman has a large share of its responsibility." Velotirs Calf.
