the high standard he insists upon for
all of his companies; hence, the thea

fine a performance the last season OF
a Savage play as the first. This season
Mr.. Savge is sending US what is con-
sidered the best all-round company
that has yet appeared in the play.
Among some of the prominent players
are: Miss Marguerite Snow, formerly

While banks of all the o.ner cities or
the northwest are paying their de-
positors with clearing house certif1-
Gates and cashiers checks. the institu-
tons in Walla Walla are paying their
debts to the people in actual coin.
From all present indications this policy
will be continued. If Portland, Spo-
kane and the cities on the Sound would
pay their debts to Walla Walla there
would be absolutely no difficulty and
If they refuse to pay their debts, and
continue to refuse. everything will be
all right anyway Walla Walia pays Its
debts regardless of what other cities
do. AS has been said before In these
columns, Walla Walla is the place for
Walla Wallans to invest their money.
Present conditions have established
this fact and impressed it upon some
local capitalists who have their money

Mr.. AIDE has written. The popularity
of this play continues to be practical

playing an entire year at the Garden

fourth year. Last season Mr.. Savage
