THE GRAND SAT.

Manager Miller Of the Grand The
atrc has an offering of unusual merit
for Saturday Of this week. A new
epoch in the development of the mo-
ton picture industry is marked by
Henry w. Savage's initial film offering
"The Country Chairman" by the Gel
ebrated humorist George AIDE
The play is a blending of quaint
characterizations and wholesome ro-
nance. The story deals with a rural
political campaign for the office of
prosecuting attorney, with a tender
love story running through the struc-
tural web. The central character is
Jim Hacker, "The County Chairman"
whose junior partner in law practice
is Tillford Wheeler. All the action
occurs in the fictitious town Of Antioch
but the principles of the drama apply
equally to New York and Chicago, for
one touch of politics, like that Of ma

prosecuting attorney Hacker storms
the convention of his party and Sc
cures the nomination for Wheeler with
out the latters knowledge. Jim's youth
full partner is engaged to Rlgby's
daughter, Lucy, but despite that fact
he is forced to make the race by the
county chairman. Wheeler, however,
promises the girl he will not make a
personal fight against her father, and
lives up to that agreement until Rigby
publicly assails him at a political meet
ing. In IN outburst of anger Wheeler
mounts the platform and vigorously
denounces Rigby. AS a result of this
action the engagement is broken.
At this juncture Hacker discovers
proof that Rigby is a thief with which
he is about to expose and disgrace his
enemy when Rigby's wife twards

with him not to publish the facts of
her husbands guilt, and Jim's death

county chairman and his political pro-

with a gratiied vengeance, and the
latter with his office and his bride.
