GOING TO REPEAL 1T.

The smaller contractors of Denver
have won in their fight against the i'm
position OF an annual license fee OF $50
each by the city council the commis-
sioDers having elected to repeal the or
dinance rather than to submit it to n
referendum in accordance with petitions
recently filed by the builders, and have
passed an ordinance on first reading to
that end
This petition was signed by 1885
voters and was certified to the council
by the elections commission last week.
The petition bearing names of more than
10 per, cent of the total number Of
voters at the last election, the council
either had to submit the ordinance to a
vote of the people or repeal it, and the
commissioners chose the latter course
ut their meeting to save expense of an
election. The principal objection to the
ordinance was that IL worked decided
hardship upon the small contractors to
the benefit Of few wealthy ones.

BICKEL AND WATSON
 IN KLEINE COMEDY
Will be Seen at Strand in "The Fixer," an Adaptation of
 Hello BilP'

Bickel and Watson, that famous team of comedy artists who did so much to put the early Ziegfield "Follies' on the theatrical map, will make their pre-
 mier appearance in film in George Kleines latest five-part comedy, "The Fixer," which will be shown at the Strand this week. They are supported by an unusually capable cast, which includes Ben L. Taggart, Snitz Ed
 wards, Alma Hanlon and Ruby Hoff- man. s
 "The Fixer'' is founded on Willis NJ. Goodhres famous stage farce, Hello Bill" and is clean straight through. free from vulgarty, chock full of sniclers. Slapstick comedy is not em- ployed and the usual hodge -podge of comedy subjects is not drawn upon to produce the laughs. It is real comedy, and will be appreciated as such.

THE ESCAPE" SHOWS CORRECTNESS OF THE

A Wonderfully We'll Told Story of a Young Girls Fight Against Odds Told at The
 Strand

The seven-reel photodrama, 'The Escape" which is to be one of the of ferings at the Strand. the south's most beautiful photoplay house. this week is a drama without a precedent. It has all the popular values of thrilling scenes. wonderful symbolic episodes, a remarkably realistic police fight in a den of kidnapers, and incidents of a thrilling nature far too numerous to mention At the same time, it make q mental appeal for it is human document showing the justice of the eugenic theory and the absolute neces- sity of wiser selection in the mating of human beings.
 The introduction of the drama Is so unique that it is really entitled to a few words of explanation. It is scien- tific and shows the propagation of the lowest forms of animal life. Progress ing upward, 1t shows the care men take in selecting the finest horses and other domestic animals for breeding purposes. Then going to the human level. it shows the terrible conditions

 From this basis the drama is con- structed, The play shows how this mismat ting of human beings leads to hopeless tragedies The two principal characters In tho drama are two sis ters--the fit and the unfit.

More or less trouble with the
Hessian fly in winter wheat
may ae looked for in at least 10
counties in iowa this coming
spring. That is the judgment
of R L. Webster, entomologist
at TIE agricultural exper ment
station at Iowa State College.
These counties are Audubon,
Cass, Cedar, Fremont, Harrison,
Henry, Linn, Louisa, Mills,
Montgomery, Monona, Page,
Pottawattamie, Ringgold, Scott,
Story, Taylor, Warren, Wapello.
In each of these the pest was
reported during 1914. and I'm
doubted!y it will make it's sp-
pearance in other counties in
the spring.
Just now the Hessian fly is

do the damage. my old wheat

Iowa Doubles Its

Motor Strength
Des Moines, Ia, Feb. 28.-Sta-
tistics of Iowa's motor car
growth, just issued by the state
insurance department. show
that the motor car population {
the sta e has almost quadrui!-.
ed in 3 years, that it has more
than doubled in 2 years, and
that the increase of 1914 over
1913 was more than $4,000.
The registration for Iowa in
1911 was 28.l31; in 1912, a.
628; in 1918, H,7l7; in 1914,
1O6,OS7.
Every indication points to
larger motor car sales in Iowa
in 1915 than in any previous
year Iowa people never had
so much money in their pockets
as now. Last years enormous
crops, which, according to the
Iowa department of agricul-
ture, were worth 1851, 1880,
are $50, 100000 more in value
than the crops of 1913 and
$89, 900, 600 in value over the
crops of 1912.
Much of last years crops is
still on hand and moving at
war time prices.
War conditions have had no
bad effect on Iowa. The in
creasing price of food stuffs are
just what the Iowa farmers
want, for it is foodstuffs that
they have to sell and the result
is that Iowa prosperity is great

previous time in the history of
