Brandeis. the working mans friend"
as many have styled him Brandeis
as solicitor general of the United
States, will have charge of all matters
appealed to the Supreme Court of the
United States. The position is re-
garded as one of the most important
in the department. AS both men, Mr.
Reynolds and Brandeis have been
publicists of the most approved type,
it can be expected, that the public
during the next four years will learn
more of the workings of the depart
ment of justice in prosecuting bad
trusts than during the past four years.
At present the department has forty
four trust suits, pending, most of
which will be carried on appeal to the
Supreme Court of the United States.
There are a number of civil suits in
addition, especially in southern and
Pacific Coast states, concerning gov
eminent lands.

Murrette.

A two reel subject entitled ''The
Stronger" showing a remarkable story
of romance and adventure depicted in
the Alaskan wilderness is being
shown at the Murrette today. The
story is of two young prospectors
whose attention is directed towards an
old shaft in a mining camp. Upon in
vestigating they find an old miner at
the bottom of the shaft and the brok-
en- wjndlass tells all too plainly of a
fatal mishap. Dying, the old miner
asks the boys to care for his only
child "Babbie' which they promise to
do. In after years both boys fall in
love with her and become rivals for
her hand. The love scenes are beau
tifully worked out and the climax is
very interesting. THE Cause" a
famous Nestor drama is also shown.

The Portland Evening Express publish
ed an interesting report last week to the
effect that Senator Charles F. johnson
has recommended the appointment of for
mer Gov. Frederick w. Plaisted as col
lector at the port of Portland. Now Oba-
diah Gardner returned from Washington
some weeks ago with the assurance, as
generally reported and believed, that he
was to have this office to console him for
his failure to secure a seat in President
Wilson's cabinet. And further he was
credited with having sufficient influence
at the White House to prevent Hon. W.
R. Pattangal from securing the office of
District Attorney for Maine. and recog-
nizing this fact Pattangall withdrew
from the contest. The Express says:
eff President Wilson shall appoint Mr..
Gardner, it is no secret that this will be
in opposition, not only to Senator John
sons wishes but to the wishes of many
