"The Spoilers Will

Rex Beach's great American ro-
nance, The Spoilers" indicates that
fiction may have as high or higher
aim than fact, for, in addition to tell
ing a gripping and absorbing story.
he has reflected certain phases Of civ
ilization's advance that will never
come again. Undoubtedly this west
ern world has experienced the last Of
the great gold rushes. These pictuT-
esque and frenzied pilgrimages that
commenced with the Spanish inva-
sion were continued with the Journeys
OF the Argonauts over the great
plains and the mountains of our west,
in the days of 40; and concluded
with the toilsome rush to the Klon-
dixie, or the sailing over seas to the
Attic shores of Nome. These were
potential and picturesque periods n
the big advance that made a conquest
of the unknown to crafty mems nev-
er-ending thirst for gold.
In providing the big properties
for this stage that uns hundreds
of miles up and down the Pacific
coast, from Washington to Alaska,
il was necessary to charter vessels
for voyages. The steamship Ohio
and Santa Maria were engaged for
this service, and half a hundred yes
sells were leased to give life to the
foreground or background of he
water scenes. Special railway trains
we're secured; locomotives were leaS-
ed to serve the desperate ventures OF
strong men fighting for their all to
