icy. BY the George Fawcett Company at
the Biiou this week. This IS an old Sol
Snllth Russell play. in which that ia
nous comedian made one of the hits of
his career, and in the playing of it Mr..
taWcett himself as Hosea Howe, was
strikingly effective in every line. in every
act. in the whole play. His work in this
PLAY affords a startling contrast TO his
work in the Or. .Iekyll and MI Hyde
STOW. where every moment was tense
while this present play is intensely human,
and being intensely human is naturally
funny.
Peaceful Valley is one Of those plays
in which the heart interest is direct and

is none of the complication, none OF the
double plotting and criss-cross purposes

Amos Ewing. chairman of the county

work Mr.. Ewing will devote his entire
time to the campaign, and he is man
of tireless energy. In speaking Of con-
ditions, he said:
THE conditions are improving in this
county We are ready to begin work.

Not only will they be elected. but they
will have big majorities. In reference to

man in this county. It is my honest opin-
ion that he will carry the county by at
least 500 votes. Other men have stated
that ne will secure a majority of 200 in
this county, but I wish TO be conserva-
tive when I say that believe that he
will carry it by the figures mentioned.
We have had some little agitation in re-
gard to county affairs, but the feeling,
il there is any, will not affect the vote
on delegate to congess and legislative
candidates. BY election time, however,
we will be right in line with other coun-
ties in the territory on every proposition
that may come up"
