Will
be Candidate

The Press understands that
Judge w. G.. Crawford will
be a candidate for reelection
as Judge of the Tenth Judicial
Dictrict. This is as it should
be, and we believe it would be
a distinct disappointment to his
constituents had he announced
,ouherwse. During the past few
years Judge Crawford has been
mentioned in connection with
higher judicial offices and has
been urged to accept tender
ed promotions. He has per-
sistently refused all sugges-
tic,ns, however, remaining con-
tent 10 fill his present office
and continue to make the city
of Dickinson his home. Judge
Crawford is one of those few
big n,en who are thoroughly
qualified to dispatch justice
fearlessly, impartiallyand from
qualified to dispense justice
resnlessly, impartie'I!y andfrom
the standpoint which he thinks
right. His splendid ability
has been recognized upon
several occasions by the sup
RENE court of the state, when
he has been called upon to Of
fioiate upon the supreme
bench. 1t is with satisfaction
that the people of the Tenth
Judicial District hear that he
expects to be a candidate to
succeed himself. - Dickinson

Balmy Weather Results in a

All this week a balmy Chi

has been assailing the legions
of winter SHOWS. As a result

places are sheets of water. and
coun'try roads formerly inn

able because of the water.

days of continued warm
weather will witness the dis
appearance of the beautiful" /.
In the city, the thawing of
she packed and frozen snow
which impeded the pedestrian
in his peregrinations about the
city has given many property
owners the opportunity to
clear their premises and walks
of the accumulation, which in
many instances was as much
as two to four feet. The walks
in all but a few instances are
now clear. ".
In order to facilitate the
clearing of the streets of the
rapid accumulation of water,
Chief of Police McNiece. act
ing in his dual capacity of
street commissioner. has had
a force of men busily engaged
with pick and shovel remov-
ing snow from the curbs, in
order to make a free channel,
and clearing away the ice
which closed the sewer inlets.
As a result. the water is being
rapidly taken off through the
sewer to the outskirts of the
city. A vast amount of water
is being daily taken off, and
with a continuance of present
weather city streets will soon
be in fair condition.
AS the ground froze with
about five feet of moisture, the
intmense amount which will
be available for the coming
growing season augurs splen-
did crop conditions.

The Feast Of The
Little Lanterns
Chinese Operetta by a Home
Talent Cast Of twenty-five
Was a Brilliant Success.

Talent Cast Of Twenty-Five
Was a Brilliant Success.
Probably the most preten-
tious homie tal-n nt production
occurring in this end of the
state took place at the opera
house yesterday evening when
The Feast of the Little Lam
terms a Chinese operetta in
tv'o acts, was given by a bevy
of twenty-five fair maids of
the city schools, under the
capable direction c'e Miss Al
ice kohlars, Of the English de-
partment.
The production revealed ex-
cellent histricr';c talent on the
part of the performers, which
was especially evident in the
IISplendid fashion in which the
main characters, Irene Eide as
'rincess Chan; Eleanor Wall
as Mai ku; Lilas McColeman
as Wee Ling; and Freda
Prault as Ow Long, handled
their difficult parts. Each
proved herself a youthful pri-
n2h donna in the making.
They were supported by a
chorus ensemble of twenty-one
dainty Chinese" n4aids, and
all were arrayed in picturesque
Chinese costume. Individual
make-ups were perfect, even
to the oblique eyebrows and
peculiar hairdress, giving
most realistic effect. Each
;m,ember of the chorus carried
a Chinese lantern and fan,
which were waved in rythm;c
unison in the chorus response.
|All played their parts with a
rare zest and SYMPATHY espe-
J cially praiseworuhy. The stage
was appropriately decorated
i'm Oriental style. Fosters Or
chestra rendered several num-
bers and accompanied the
chorus.
The operetta was the direct
result of much real ard con-
scientious work on the part of
both directress and cast.
Following is the prologue in
brief:
THE ancestral estate Of
Prince Chan is held in truss
until the night of the Feast o,f
the Little Lanterns. when it
shall be given over to any two
surviving children. Princess
Chan, having lost her brother
and sister when they were all
children at play in the noun
tain sur,mer-home of the
Prince, is in great sorrow at
the thought of losing her home
which, however, is saved for
her.
The first act opens with
the celebration of the Feast of

legends being woven into the
Itext of the songs. The Gov

fairs of children in China, and

mistress. cause some amuse-
ment and entertainment
Then the surprise for the
Princess is introduced in the
person of the little Japanese
juggler girl, who pleases them
ncightily until summoned to
the palace. The chorus de-
parts and the curtain falls
with the sorrowting Princess
alone in the garden.
In the second act the Prin-
cess is discovered still alone

FIVE RAILROADS LINE UP WITH

With five railroads already lined up
and six more still holding out, the

way to win their strike for union
conditions today.
Three of the five gave in late yes

their business agents be given the

men before and after working hours
in the freight depots. Trouble arose
when this right was refused. ..

ToTHER GIRLS SUE PAPERS

Suits for $4,000 were today fled
against the Post, Examiner, Herald

This follows a suit for $4,000, filed a
few days ago against the Post by
Miss Lucy TOther, a sister.
The charge is that pictures Of the
Tother girls were printed in the pa
pers being sued as being the Burn

duty for the post arrived on an as
