1.-The Shepherd King"

The great popular success Of
Wright Lormer's big scenic produc-
ton Of The Shepherd King has re-
suited mainly in its strong appeal to
the vast army of nonplay goers. That
it the men and women who do not, as
rule. attend theatres regularly but
who are attracted only when the Of
fering is regarded by them as convey
ing a lesson in. or study of moral
righteousness. 1t will, therefore, be
interesting to observe the effect of
Mr.. Lorimers engagement at the
Key,or, Grand where his bid for IA

esting and wholesome stage story.

that the secretary is fully in syE,-

regarding the declarations made In the
letter of President Taft to Secretary

that official from charges made by l..

the general land office at Seattle.
Former Governor Pardee was referred
to in the Taft letter as one of those
who had criticized the policy Of the
interior department.
Governor Pardee in his statement
says:
Having read with interest and care
the presidents vindication ofeSecre-

suggests itself to me is that about the
only persons who will rejoice over it
are those few who desire to monopol-

MINORITY REPORT

DE undersigned Members of the Com
mittee appointed by the Colonial Council
at its meeting of 18th November 1908 to re-
wise the Ordinance on Cotton plant diseases
do hereby submit the following minority
report.
While we agree in the theory of having
the cotton plants all destroyed or burned
off the land, in the course of May month
each year, aud thereby having the land free
from cotton during the month of June, as
proposed by the majority, we consider it
would be very difficult to practically carry
II out by law, as our seasons for planting
are SO irregular, in respect of the necessary
rainfall, and Insufficient supply Of labour,
also the interference w tn and management
of private Property rights which are inviola.
BILE according to our Colonial law.
