Fellow EeeIinu.

Mr.. Landry, wealthy though miser-
~ man, was one day relating to a
Quaker a tale Of deep distress and
concluded by saying:
: 81 could not but feel for him."
"Verily, friend" replied the Quaker,
''thou didst right in that thou didst
feel for thy neighbor, but didst thou
feel in the right place? Didst thou
feel in thy pocket?''

The OPERA HOUSE

Tomorrow, Monday, Sept. 18th, re-
turn engagement of that wonderful
picture THE Two Orphans" featuring
an all star cast, Theda Bara, William
Shay, Jean Sothern and others. A
great many people are asking why are
you playing return dates on so many
Of your pictures? That is question
that is easily answered. In the first
place, business is better, the patrons
enjoy good picture better the second
time, and those who haven't seen it
realize that it is something out of the
ordinary and must have merit to stand
return date, and accordingly they
make their plans to see it.
Only pictures of merit can stand a
return date, and there are no disap-
pointments. In the picture Thursday
the management has booked another
gem. CDR. Rameau." William Fox

PROHIBITION FIGHT
MAY be COMING NOW

ATLANTA, Ga, Sept. 16.-Political
prophets who see a year ahead are
making the prediction that the next
session of the Georgia legislature will
witness another hard-fought prohibit
ticn battle, the issue being whether or
not the present Georgia laws shall be
referred to the people.
John w. Bale, of Floyd county, who
introduced local option bill in the
general assembly of 1915 and who
fought the prohibition bills in the tenn
perance committee of the house and
on the floor of the house, has been re-
elected to the house from Floyd county,
Notwithstanding the fact that Seaboarn
Wright, one of the old war horses Of
prohibition in the United States AMI
Georgia, resides in Rome, and is CON
sidered strong factor in Floyd coun-
ty politics.
In view of the fact that Hugh NJ.
Dorsey was the only one of the four
gubernatorial candidates who strad-
died the fence on the prohibition issue,
his position being that he favored no
change in the law without referring
the question to the white voters" it is
expected that Dorsey's election will
be made the pretext for an assault up
on the prohibition laws.
This assault will probably take the
fern of bill to refer the whole mat
ter to a vote of the people, which was
one of the numerous proposals ad-
vanced in the legislature of 1916 in
an effort to block the passage of the
laws. In denouncing this proposal on
the floor of the house, one of the pro-
hibition leaders declared it was moth
ing but a scheme to let the liquor inter-
ests and breweries into the state with
prodigious slush fund to debaucn
the purchasable vote.

the proclamation of Mexican indie
pendence by Hidalgo at Dolores in
1910 was observed with with elaborate
ceremonies throughout the republic

larger part of the tremendous list of

leges in or near the capital. A field
was laid out for track and field events,
BASEBALL games, basketball and associ-
alton football matches. General Car
anza donated thirty thousand pesos TO

"The ne'er- Do-Well," by Rex Beach,
the Selig spectacular drama filmed by

Wheeler Oakman and Kathlyn Will

The hero is Kirk Anthony, a college
graduate and veteran football player
and since graduation the coach of his
university team. On the evening fol-
lowing a football victory the last Of
the season, Kirk and others start out
tG celebrate. Late that night he finds

During the voyage, Kirk becomes ac~
Qrainted with a woman-a Mrs. Steph-
len CONTAMINATION he learns to ad-
mire very much. She is really diplo-
matte agent of great influence. One day
while Kirk is out hunting he meets in a
forest bower, a Spanish girl who Is
known only at "Chiquita." He falls des-
perately in love with her, and tries
yainly to discover her identity.
The story of his making good of his
winning of Chiquita despite the coun-
ter-plottings of Mrs. Cortlandt, of the
clearing of his name, and of the final
decisive Intervention in Panamanian
affairs of old Darwin X. Anthony, is
strongly engrossing and varied by
many richly humorous episides.
Chiquita is by far the most charm
ing feminine character Rex Beach has
drawn. and Kathlyn Williams as Edith
Cortlandt, is an exceeding, convincing
and fascinating type.

MORE PAVING WILL Be
DONE ON CITY STREETS

AS soon as the work on the paving
between Lamar street and the S. A. J..
yiaduct on Lee street is completed, the
authorities will begin the work of ex-
tending the paving along the same
street to Dodson street. This action
was agreed upon by the city council
late Friday at a called meeting.
A petition to pave Taylor street from
Lee to Horne, under the same arrange
ments as already agreed upon for Lee,
was passed by the city council. This
work will follow the Lee street paw
ing.
A short stretch on Church street be-
tween Lee and Jackson will then be
paved, giving Americas additional paw
ing.
Church street will not be begun for
scme time, because of its being a thor
oughfare for cotton coming into the
city from the southern and eastern Sec
tons of the county.

notable, in recalling the returns as

A mayor having to do with the
daily lives of our two millions Of men,
women and children has an unlim-
tied field. A man who understands
the Joy of service can keep himself
busy every hour he is awake-mak-
ing life happier for those millions.
Constructive work? Why, Bill,
there's no end of it.
And the secret of it all is, not to
rule the people, but to help them to
rule themselves.
But the politicians you surrounded
yourself with have been using you
and your administration to govern
the people of Chicago in the interest
of factional Republican politics. In
the end you'll be the goat-for you
can't shift the blame to them. You're
mayor and you don't have to follow
fool advice.
Do you know that the people are
coming to believe that Lundin is the
real mayor and that you are only a
pUppet in his hands? Firing Dick
Folsom, your lifelong friend,
strengthened that opinion amazing
Iy. The people think Lundln forced
you to do it.
You had the Deneen-West-Tri-
bUne-NeYs outfit licked to a FRAGILE
which was a good thing for Chi
cago. Now they're coming back
and on your mistakes.
l think some of the cunning poll
ticians in that outfit have ben secret
ly helping you to get in bad with
Jake Loeb's fight on the public
school teachers. Your enemies
wanted you to lose the prestige you
had gained with labor in the mas
terly way you handled the street car
strike and arbitration. Loeb's a
Democrat, but the blame for the
fight falls on you. What does Jake
care what happens to YOU? Or
what do the Illinois manufacturers
care?

The newspapers that supported

your election in spite of their Oppo-
sition. Anyhow, the publishers of
Chicago like to be political bosses.
They like to be in position to send
for mayors, judges and other public
servants to come to the editorial
rooms and get their orders.
Nobody wants you to make good
but the people-and the politicians
who hold jobs under you.
If you get my attitude right it may
help me to help you. I'll be frank
with you. I have no interest in you

cept that I'd like to see all of them
get closer to the people. I'll do all
I can to help any official make good
as a public servant, and l don't care
a darn what party he belongs to.
Your political pals will pat you on
the back, but they won't tell you the
truth II 1t is unpleasant. Ill tell you
the truth, no matter how much it
hurts.
And the plain truth is, Bill, that
you're in bad. You were not elected
mayor because you were a RepUbi-
can, but in spite of it. The plain
folks thought you were human
and because you were supposed to be
liberal and known to be a good anna
teur sportsman-ex-footbaII player,
yachtsman, etc. They knew you
were big, rather fat and kind of lazy,
And that didn't hurt you a bit. For
they thought there was red blood in |
your veins, while they knew most re-
formers were so cold-blooded they |
would sweat ice-water in August.
Anyhow, you were elected. You
