8on in "The Hldricu Jav" at
Star Theatre.
That there la a hidden law of jus
tice which rewards virtue and puni
shes evil doing is a theme that dra
matists have ever been on the alert
to use because ot Its universal ap
peal. This basic idea has been treat
ed in a novel and ingenious manner
in the Mutual Masterpicture, De Luxe
lEditlon, "The Hidden Law," a five act
emotional drama produced by Hor
sley which comes to the Star Theatre
on Sunday with William Clifford aud
Margaret Gibson in the leading roles.
The story centers about John Carl
ton, a writer who has a play stolen
from him by an unscrupulous theat
rical manager. He is robbed of his
royalties, aud when he attempts to
obtain by force what he believes is
justly his he is arrested and sentenc
ed to prison. At the expiration of
his sentence embittered by his harsh
experiences he retires to the moun
tains where he engages in the life of
a "Dick Turpin." He falls in love
with Wanda known as the Princess
of the mountains. He guards her
from all intruders and she looks upon
him as a father.
She meets a young hunter from the
East and experiences her first sensa
tions of love. Carlton's life is
brought to light and seeing that, his
hope of marrying Wanda will not ma
terialize he returns East where the
success he was robbed of early in his
career comes to him as a final reward
after his years of struggle. Wanda
and her sweetheart stay in the count
ry of her childhood.
Pretty Margaret Gibson as the
mountain princess has a charming
and sympathetic role which she plays
with all her wonderful ability for
true screen characterization. Wil
liam Clifford as John Carlton displays
his keen sence of fitness to his role
and lends dignity and force to his in
terpretation. John Oaker as the ju
venile is well cast. The Bostock ani
mals figure prominently in the pic
ture.
We are offering one ol the best
residences in Heppner at a sacrifice.
If you want a good home and have
$600 cash we can do business, for
our terms on the balance will be your
terms. There is no better bargain in

Washington D. C, Sept. 20. "I am
surprised to read in the despatches
from Maine that William M. In
graham, Assistant Secretary of War,
claims that the Democrats are to he
iredited with giving the country the!
best Army bill that has ever been
passed.
"We republicans," said Represpn
tative Julius Kahn, of California,
ranking minority member of the
House Committee on Military Af
fairs, "have always contended that
the National Defense is not a matter
of party politics. Every patriotic cit
izen is equally interested in seeing his
country properly prepared regardless
of political affiliations.
"As a matter of fact many of the
provisions of the Preparedness law of
June 3rd, 1916, were written into the
measure by Republicans. This is es
pecially true of such provisions as
fhose providing for an enlisted re
serve corps, for an increased medical
corps, for training camps for civil
ians, for short term enlistments, for
the manufacture of tools and namjc--I'n
times of peace so that the supply of
ammunition can materially be in
' creased in times of war, for the cre
ation of the grade of Aviator which
jwfll enable civilians to be commis
sioned in the aviation section, and
numerous other provisions.
"S.i far as the increased strength of
,the Army is concerned, a Democratic
I House refused to authorize anything

minimum strength pf the Regular
Army. The Republicans constantly
insisted on a .larger Regular Army
and finally succeeded in raising the
strength to a minimum of 178, OOi)
men.
"The Republicans claim no especial
praise for having voted for these
splendid features. . They only did
their duty to their country and they
resent the attempt of Democratic of
ficials to claim credit for the legisla
tion as a Democratic partlsian measure.
