COLUMBIA TO SHOW
FALL OF POMPE||
Picture Drama of Lytton's Fa.
nous Novel Will Be Display
ed Twice Daily.

'eThe Last Days OF Pompeii'' will be
brought to the Columbia tomorrow
night by George Kleine, to remain
throughout the week, with matinees
daily except Monday.
Without doubt the most dramatic
event in the history of the world was
the destruction Of Pompeii in 70 A. D.
by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius.
Fifteen years previous this delightful
city on the shore of The Bay of Naples
was rudely shaken and partially de-
stroyed by an earthquake, and the in
habitants were just recovering from the
effects of II and rebuilding their public
buildings and beautiful homes when
the rage of Vesuvius was vented upon
them
Lord Bulwer Lytton, in his famous
romantic novel, THE Last Days of
Pornpeii," inmortalized the event and,
using data obtained from scientific re-
search and Investigation. peopled it with
his imagination. George Kleine, with
his photo drarnatization of Lord Lyt-
toms novel. will do even more to recall
II to modern amusement lovers. His
pictures of the eruption give a most
impressive and vivid idea of the awful
magnitude OF this world-famed catas-
trophe- .,.. =

proposed amendments to the state

amendments were accepted, and they
required after legislation to make
them effective.
'In this connection the same old
question comes up as to whether a

"The last general assembly was
burdened with more obligations when
it began its regular session than any
similar body in this state in the past
60 years, and had it not carried out
its instructions, it could have been
properly classed in the same category
of unfaithful legislatures that previous
bodies of Republican faith have been
pub by by the people. When a legis-

fleet the views Of the people that
elected it, no blame should be attach

The voters of this state know per-

sociation movement is financed by pub
tic service corporations and insurance
companies in its efforts to break down
the legislation in the interests Of the
masses of the people which was passed
by the legislature last winter under
the leadership of Governor Cox, and
they will deal with 1t accordingly. Gov
ernor Cox has the deserved confidence
of the people of Ohio-the Green work
mems compensation act alone would
command that And then the people
love a fighter who does not wait TO be
dragged into the open but who goes
out and boldly meets and smites his
adversaries. The end of the fight be

AN AMENDMENT TO BE BEATEN
columbus Dispatch)

Voters should not forget that there
is at least one constitutional amend
ment, upon which they will be asked
to give judgment next month, that
proposition to cut the size of the leg
islature to fifty representatives and
twenty-one senator's Now every one
of the eighty-eight counties In the
state has at least one representative.
Under the proposed arrangement that
would be no longer true, and the bas-
Is of representation would be so high
that in many cases several counties
would be combined to make one leg
islative district. The Legislative
power Of the country districts would
be reduced and that of the cities
would be increased. The cities, in
short, would rule the state, the coun-
try districts furnishing in the general
assembly only small minority of
ineffective protest.
There Is no certainty that the legis-
lature Is too large as it is. At any
rate. 1t would be most ungracious
for the cities, now that they have
been granted home rule, to seize also
the rule of the whole state. When
the cities have learned to rule them,
selves. 1t will be time enough to put
further burdens or responsibility up,
on them. But even then, there should
be some consideration of fairness to
the less populous portions of the state
and to the steadying influence OF
thought and opinion where life is less
turbulent.
The Democratic banner. (Mt. Vernon, Ohio) 1898-192?, 1913-10-21

The Republican press is very siren
uous and Jealous in efforts to make 1t
appear that the Democratic general
assembly which passed every law re-
quired to give effect to the constitu-
tional amendments the people adopt
ed was an enemy to society and that
the old organization which used to
purchase legislation and was caught
trying to buy referendum elections
is a friend of the people. A hard
dose to try to crowd down the peoples
shroats.
