About "Gloriana"
There was a woman of great
wealth, aristocratic and austere, who
liked to believe that she was a great
philanthropist and leader in charita
ble movements. She devoted her
apare time of her life to her hobby,
but in all she did foreign missions
and charity for people of distant
lands was her sole purpose. Right
at her door there was the suffering
poor and needy, hut she held aloof
from giving aid and even denied one
of her own servants an advance on
her salary when complying meant a
matter of life and death.
There came into her home a lit
tle child, orphaned and adopted by
the man of the house against the
wife's wishes. How this little girl
brought light into the darkness of
this haughty woman's ideas of chari
ty will be told in an immensely inter
esting moving picture to he exhibited
at the Star Theatre on Saturday
March 31, in the Bluebird series un
der the title of "Gloriana" with little
Zoe Rae playing the. role of the child.
This feature is -one of the rare in
stances where a little child has been
made the star of a photoplay. Ow
ing to the nature of the subject an
exceptionally talented child was re
quired to carry the theme through
fire difficnle acta. The fact that lit
tle Zoe Rae was available made the
production possible, for a child less
clever than this talented youngster
could not be employed. In the sup
porting company are a doxen ma
ture actors and actresses. Including
Wm. CanfieM. John J. Cook. Virgin
ia Forts, Clarissa Selwyane, Irene
Hunt and Vary Talbot. There is a
little boy, Gordon Griffith, who plays
opposite to little Zoe Rae who leads
a coterie of javeatles numbering
more than a score.
In nnmeroas scenes these children
carry the entire action, and all thru
the play there are episodes in which
this remarkable assemblage of
youthful ctererness Tie with their el
ders in producing entertaining re
sults. As an attraction of strong ap
peal to women and children "Glor
iana could not bare a superior ; and
at the same time the plot is so in
teresting and well played that every
type and age of "picture tan" will be
immensely pleased with the combin
ation of fine acting and beautiful
photography.

If a small dairy herd yields a nice little
income, a larger one, with high-class breeds,
' will prove a source of considerable profit.
Rain or shine, small crops or large crops,
wheat at 50c per bushel or at $1.75 per bu

and butter-fat means a good, steady in

or improve it by adding some high-class

Above Partisanship?
The Nation will not be convulsed in
grief because Mr. Mann is not to be
elected Speaker of the House of Rep
resentatives at Washington. Mr.
Mann is not fit to be Speaker. He
does not represent adequately the pa
triotic impulse and purpose of the Na
tion in the present crisis. He is a
Parliamentary pettifoger, and he is
not able to rise above his training or
his partisan Bpirit. He is where he
is floor leader "of the Republican
minority because of the abomin
able rule of seniority.
The re-election of Champ'CIark as
Speaker will be acceptable to the
country, if it does not redeliver the
House to a machine-controlled, party
dominated, pork-inspired organiza
tion. There are now thirty chairmen
of important House commitees from
the South and but seven or less from
the north.
These thirty Southern statesmen
are all-powerful in the House be-
THE NATION WILL SUP
PORT THE PRESIDENT
Presidential orders have been giv
en for vigorous recruiting ot the navy
to the full authorized war strength
ot 87,000 men. The ill-advised mus
tering out ot the national guard after
its service on the Mexican border is
to cease; and the presidential orders
further call for the quick mobiliza
tion of guard regiments already de
mobilized. Let us hope and pray that the
president will adhere to that resolu
tion and cast off altogether the in
fluences of those unwise pacifist ad
visors who want him to let the ship
of state go drifting on when the world
realizes that it is menaced by dan
gerous tides and hidden rocks and
unknown undercurrents.
We have been in a state of war and
a condition of unpreparedness. The
fallacious plea has been heard, and
long controlled the administration
councils, that the tinted States should
avoid even the appearance of putting
itself on the defensive, lest thereby it
give offense to Germany, and precipi
tate hostilities.
That theory has been tried to the
limit and the consequences are ex
actly the converse of what was prom
ised by its advocates. It has merely
emboldened the German government
to greater aggressions and atrocity.
It has drawn us toward war, not
from it.
Now that the president has had an
awakening, it Is not conceivable that
he could ever again become suscepti
ble to the hypnotic influences of that
rapidly dwindling element that wants
peace at the price of national humil
iation and the dryng up of the well
springs of patriotism and American
spirit. That spirit is the very breath
of life of the republic. Once dead it
could never be resurrected. It is
more precious than wealth or ease ot
living. Its decay would be more ca
lamitous than wa.r. Spokesman-Review.
CAR OF HOGS BRINGS $3000.
Last Saturday the Jackson broth
ers, E. L. and C. M., shipped a car of
hogs that brought the largest returns
of any car ever shipped out of Her
miston. The hogs were sold to the
Pendleton Meat Co. f. o. b. the car at
Hermiston and netted $3112.92.
There were 97 hogs in the car with
the average weight about 231 pounds.
They were 7 to 9 months old. George
Strohm had a few head In the car,
but most of them were raised by
Jackson brothers.
The hogs were raised on alfalfa
pasture with a few artichokes. This
was the only feed until the finishing

the country has, or even the best the
Democratic party has, there would be
no great objection. But they do not.
They represent a system, and the sys
tem should be abolished. It is bad
enough at any time; it is a grave ob
stacle and handicap to the NationiW
welfare at this time.
It Is right for the Republican partj
to rise above partisanship. But the
country would be grateful for some
signs that the Democratic party is
doing the same. Oregonlan.
