HooLleAN IN NEW york.

"Hooligan in New York." a melo-
dramatic comedy drama, will be seen
at the Auditorium on Wednesday Feb.
8. 1t is said to tell consistent story
and is as full of laughs and tears as
any ever staged. The author, Sam
Morris, has taken for his theme the
incidents made famous in cartoons Of
"Hooligan," and has woven around the
character story of metropolitan life,
that is unique in the manner of handl-
ing and presentation. Any story that
deals with the mysteries of New York
life has a peculiar element of interest
init. In spite of the newspapers, the
police courts and the city authorities,
hundreds Of crimes are committed that
are never heard of, hundreds of dra-
mas in real life are enacted proving
that truth is sometimes more strange
than fiction. Here and there In the
newspapers you may see a paragraph
tnat puzzles you. Could you solve the
mystery you might tell a story of hui
man passion and interest, of love and
hate as strange as any evolved by
dramatist Such story is "Hooligan
in New York." and the author has not
gone far-a-field in plot and situation,
to tell his tale. The local is laid
among the Tenderloin places of
Gotham and some of the equally no
torious landmarks of the seamy lower
east side, which includes the one
dreaded Five Points, Chinese Opium
Den, Cherry street at night showing
a view of the Brooklyn Bridge illum-
mated, and thieves den; exterior of

The New York Sun does no
like the presidents Statement
somewhere in the northwest tina
he would recommend increased
appropriations for reclamation
service. The Sun calls attention
to the fact that when the plan
was originated the statement was
made that it would not cost the
government anything, but that
the improvements do not keep
up with the expenditure and it
makes big leak in the treasury
and it spreads to the states where
appropriations are wanted for
retaining swamp lands.
There is just this much to say
about it. There may be delays
in selling the land, there may
be delays in getting back to the
government the first money ad
vanced, but it is certain that il
will bring ample rewards in time
as anything can be certain in
this uncertain world.
In the meantime every new
home established on land that
is being reclaimed, whether it be
arid land or swamp land, adds
one more unit to the producing

SO much more, he would realize
that whether it was right to use
governmental money that way or
not, there were ample rewards
in increased taxable property, as
well as in the direct return OF
the money.
In Idaho we suspect there are
a million acres of land that have
been put under water in the last
few years. That land before the
moisture was produced was
worth 1925 to $4 an acre. Now
it is worth from $50 to $500 an
acre and the taxation must be
increased accordingly.
So it is like throwing money
away to make some slight i'm
provements upon a river that
will sweep all the improvements
away with the next freshet.
Rather it is redeeming from the
desert vast tracts OF land and
converting them into a region
much more sure of crop than
the east is, and sure of crop
that is better in flavor and in
quality and in amount than can
be produced anywhere in the
east.

of individuals by a government.
