Mr. Fa rim m asked Mr. SanUchi when they were ready to play the fight scene which occurs in Striae's office. Mr. Sautschi replied that he was not and at the aine time a;-ked Mr. Farnum if he wanted to make it a real fight. Mr. Fanmm replied that he was very anxious to, so they went at it with tho result that you will jce one of the most realistic en counters that was ever put in a play. A battery of five cameras was trained on the pair and not an incident was lost. A whole mining town was bought and blown to pieces, thirty vessels were chartered, in fact every thing was done to make this one of the most realistic pictures ever staged. 'J he taming of a primitive man by a sweet, inno ccn' girl is the big crux of this romance that is car ried out with simple, sy Diathetic deftness, and the contrast between Cherry Mallottc and Helen Hester is another tremendously fascinatng force in the story.

Wlthycombe. i Dr. Smith is pledged in the strong est terms to defend the direct prim erly law against all unfriendly action. Dr. AVithycombe on the other hand is and always has been antagonistic to the law. He was an assemblyite four years ago and he is the same to day. He has so declared himself in public talks during this campaign. On the subject of economy in gov ernment Dr. Smith goes to the very root of the matter and says he will curb expenditures by the legislature in every manner possible and will veto every needless appropriation. His motto Is that state business should1 be conducted on the same basis private business is conducted. Dr. Withy combe talks very differently on this subject His view is that the gover nor and legislature should "work in harmony" and he has so expressed himself on the stump. He does not promise to veto needless appropri ations. It is a fair assumption that he will use the veto power sparingly if he uses It at all. Xo republican governor has every vetoed appropri ation bills. With reference to law enforcement the attitude of Dr. Smith is strong and pronounced. His bold stand for the dren's bureau of the U. S. depart ment of labor. When it is remembered that New Zealand has long been recognized as having the lowest infant death rate in the world, it only adds to the interest and value of the report lately issued; for the reason that a country noted for a low death rate would not be so likely to be among the first to In augurate an organized movement to still further reduce the mortality which already was so low as to give It an enviable reputation. An example of the work accomp lished by the society Is fouad in the single statement that through Its agency the infant mortality In Dune din, a residential city of about 60,000 Inhabitants, was reduced 50 per cent during the five year period of 1907 to 1912. It is Interesting, too, to note that the New Zealand society places the greatest value upon the publicity and educational side of its work. At the very outset of Its career the society adopted the method of giving the widest publicity to its suugestions and advice dealing with the health of mothers and babies. It at once availed itself of the courtesy of the enforcement of the law was the chief newspapers throughout the country, feature of his race for the democratic the editors of which co-operated nomination for governor. During that splendidly and gave liberally of space campaign he said: jin their publications for the work. "I think a governor who knew that j For example, the society maintained violations of the criminal laws wt-rein all of the weekly papers through being winked at w ould be derelect in ( out the islands a department known his sworn duty if he did iot exert as "Our Taby Column."

In is sincere in the stand he takes and he addition to this, literature in pamphlet is entitled to the support of those form covering every phase of infant who feel strongly the need of law and welfare work was printed and circu order. lated freely. And now, after these Dr. Smith is the logical man for years of intelligent and well directed governor.

The house has always been in thorough sympathy with the presi dent but the senate is less certain. It took hard fighting to get the cur rency law and other good measures through the senate. There was diffi culty in getting the senate to endorse the president's policy regarding Mex lco. Should Senator Chamberlain be defeated and supplanted by Booth with his well known reactionary views and corporation affllliatlonl the president's Influence In the sen ate will be hurt He will lose a vote and those who are opposing his pol icies will gain a vote. Those who have faith In Woodrow Wilson should show that faith by vot ing for a senator who will uphold the hands of the president not for a man who will work with those who strive to heckle, and embarass the admin Istration In every possible manner. It has been many years since the American people were asked to pray as a nation but the Former Dajs day of prayer that the Of Iray"r. Kuropean war be end ed will not be the first Instance wherein a president has ask ed for prayer. On the other hand It will be the eighth time such action has been taken. The dates and occanlons for the former national days of prayer were as follows: Mav 9. 1798 : To avoid war with France. Jan. 12, 1813: To avoid war with Algeria. Sept. 26, 1861: To end the war be tween the states. April 30, 1863: To end the war be tween the states. Aug. 1, 1864: To end the war be tween the states. June 1, 1865: In commemoration of Lincoln. Sept. 26, 1881: In commemoration of Garfield. Another historic day of prayer In this country was the first Thanks giving held by the Pilgrims at Ply mouth In thankfulness for the arriv al of the Mayflower with needed sup plies. However, that was not a na tional day of prayer Inasmuch as it applied only to Plymouth colony. Kx-Oovernor T. T.

St. Louis Post Dispatch. down that great statesman, Taft." thun.Iered the doctor. It is widely said that to declare that Mr. Taft in the White House now would be far better than for Mr. Wilson to be in the White House is an extraordinary claim. Four years of Mr. Taft all but ruin ed his party He became leader with the party invincible; he retired with Its lines broken and Its regiments shattered. What would have hap pened to It if Mr. Taft had served an eight year term Instead of a four year term? The split in the party was caused by the breaking away of the Lincoln republicans. They did not like Mr Taft's policies. They dIJ not like Balllnger and his plan of Quggen helming Xlaaka. They prefer the pol icy embodied In the Chamberlain act for an Alaska railroad that will for ever prevent Alaska and Its treasures from "being Guggenhelmed. The Lincoln republicans of the na tion did not like Mr. Taft's hostility to the Initiative and referendum, displayed In his fight on the Oklu homa constitution and in his veto ol the Arizona constitution, ' and in de nunciations of the plan in many speeches. They did not like it because Mr. Taft fought La Follotte, Cummins and all the other republican insur gents, a fight In which he took fed eral patronage from them as punish ment for their progressive Ideas. Mr. Taft is an amiable and estim able citizen. But the Lincoln repub licans bitterly disagreed with his pol icies. In Oregon, thousands upon thousands of them left the party to vote for Mr, Roosevelt and to vote for Mr. Wilson because of those poli cies. Mr. Taft only got 34.673 votes In Oregon, or less than 30 per cent of the vote of the state. Not a great many people believe with Dr. Wlthycombe that "the Am erican nation made a great mistake when it turned down that great statesman, Taft." IltlStl I.F.ADF.IC tOMI; TO .IMF.KH A I ' 't: ...
