With the Movies

interest to Movie patrons at the Bis

plays have been booked, among them
being "Salomy Jane" on Monday

But with the case Of "Salomy Jane
a different story is to- be, told The
picture is clearly the work OF %eXper-
fence. Bret Harte wrote the original
"Salomyg James kiss On which the
picture is based. %&& ~ ~ h., as@
Paul Armstrong converted the
story into a play and from that it
was adapted to the picture, which
Alex e. Beyfuss has directed Bret
Harte had a clear concise idea of: the
West, and no man was better quail
fed to write about it than he. ~
That the director was blessed with
an artistic nature, will be obvious as
soon as the picture has been seen.
There is hardly a scene which is not

All the exteriors were taken in the
giant redwood forests of California,
and no more artistic backgrounds
could possibly have been found. They
would have been completely lost,
however, unless they were not sup
ported by excellent photography.
Beautiful light and shadow effects
have been caught in almost each
Gene. Photographically the whole
production is Of the highest order.
The story hardly needs relation,
but suffice it to say that it is SO far
above the average WESTERN that it
will stand out like a bright star from
it's more mediocre consultations. In
ajfew places the producer has caught
such beautiful and extensive, scenes
with the camera, that he has been
tempted to lengthen them, so that
their length seems unnecessary, but
this fact may be obliterated before
the picture is released as when he

LAWS INTENT.

With the. usual .colorless attitude

matters concerning the welfare of the
state, Thomas. Hall, secretary Of
state, has proceeded to certify the
referending Of. three laws passed by
the last legislature.
"A majority Of the signatures are
without notification. The frst s,22s
signatures, the number necessary to
refer a law, come from more than a
majority of the counties, when the
constitution provides that they must

come from "A MAJORITY" of the
counties or twenty-seven counties.
Mr.. Hall has been lodging respon.
sibility so long, however, that no one
expected him to take a firm stand in
the matter of these petitions.
The petitions to refer the immigra.
ton bill show that signers came from
all but two counties-Sioux and
Slope. This means that S,272 sigma
lures came from 49 counties, instead
OF coming from q as the .aw plainly
contemplates.
Secretary Of State Hall, however,
would have been warranted in repudl-
ating every signature not properly
verified.
Has he checked up to see if all the
signers are legal voters?
Has he ascertained whether the sig
natures coming in by mail are bona
fide?
Has he secured a ruling from At
torney General Linde as to the sutti'
cheney of the petitions both as to
form and the manner in which the
signatures we're secured?
Has he secured any legal opinion
as to the nummber Of counties the
first S,22S signatures should come
from?
II he has no n knows it.
The prohibition forces and those
interested in promoting immigration
doubtless will make the inquiries
which MI. Hall as q public official
lodges.
Hellstrom's campaign was the worst
tiasco any state has witnessed.
The gullibility with which Mr.. Hall
accepts these petitions, however, ex-
cceds that fascO.

THAT EQUITY SUIT.

Farmers of North Dakota should
not become confused as to the pur'
pose Of the suit started by Attorney
General Linde to ascertain the finan'
cial responsibility of the Farmers
Equity Cooperative Exchange.
1t is not a blow at the Equity so
5ciety. 1t is not to discourage cooper
alive marketing. 1t is not to pull any
chestnuts out of the fire for the Min
neapolis Chamber of Commerce. 1t
is merely TO protect the farmers
against fraud and Misrepresentation
The Tribune presents this morning
the first Of a series Of articles deal
ing with the Farmers Equity Coop
eratixc Exchange, which is a corpora
ton organized for profit and should
not be confused with the American
Society of Equity. #
Interest will be conferred next week
upon the hearings before Judge Pol
lock at Fargo to prove the alleged
insolvency of the Equity Exchange. A
mass Of testimony has been gathered
some of it interesting in the extreme.
as rejecting the loose business meth
cd OF the corporation, which is seek
ing the confidence and also the dol
lars of the North Dakota farmer.
If Attorney General Linde can
prove that the Equity Exchange, di
rectly or indirectly, has sustained re
lations with the Minneapolis Cham
Der Of Commerce, he will have dis
closed the worst type of hypocris,
and double dealing that has ever
sought to victimize the farmers OF
North Dakota. ..
Judgment must be suspended in the
meantime. .t,....

NORTH DAKOTA SECOND,

Interest will be centered in Mime.
sofa and North Dakota next March,
as these states will be the first in the
nation to give expression of their
choice for president Of the United
States. Minnesota will vote, March
IA, and North Dakota follows the
neighboring state just one week later.
Minnesota for the first time will
hold a presidential primary, while
the 1916 primaries will be North Da-
kota's second experience in selecting
delegates and i%nstruc;ing them as to
q candidate for chief executive of the
nation. "+&" VIZ 10" 4"
The day of uninstructed delega-
tons to national conventions is grad
iuully passing. Despite the fact that
primaries do not always represent the
concensus Of opinion in a state, the
voters have seen fit often to delegate
their power to a minority.
Three years ago North Dakota az
forded the first indication of public
opinion toward the presidency. La
Toilette was endorsed largely because
there seemed tonbe no alternative be
tween him and Taft. This state reg
istered the first protest, not SO much
against Taft as against his policy Of
reciprocity.
Next year the Wilson administra-
ton, if put to the tariff test, must also
be repudiated by the North Dakota
voters. The Underwood tariff has
dipped deeper into the farmers peck.
cts than Taft's reciprocity program
ever could have. The first two years
Of the Democratic administration
showed Il marked decline in prices
paid for agricultural : products. If
war had not interviewed to bolster up
the price. Of wheat and other farm
produce, the depression would have
continued in an even more marked
degree. ''~'' Is,
All the North Dakota farmer has to
do is to run over the average prices
paid during the Wilson administra-
ton with the preceding period to be
convinced.
From now on there will be consid-
cradle political hysteria due to the at
titude Of the administration IN the
European conflict. Already there, has
developed a tendency in several state
papers to a%potheosize Wilson.
The Tribune believes that the chief
executive is entitled to the patriotic
support of the public and press in
his European policy because it is not
q political issue. TO make it one
would be disastrous.
However, voters of North Dakota
should not be blinded to the defects
OF the administration because of their.
ecstatic patriotism.
