ALMOST READY TO MOVE

In a few days Thomas the jeweler,
will move into his palatial quarters
in the Finch building.
When completed and the stock in
position it will be the "show place" of
the town. One thing an important
move of this kind proves, that Mr..
Thomas has boundless belief in the
growth and possibilities of this city,
nothing else would prompt a man to
open, equip and stock such big prop
osition.

BLANCHE SWEET IN MINING DRAMA AT
 THE ROYAL TODAY
Vigorous Play to Be Exhibit
 ed also Tomorrow. A Lasky , Production, Called "The
 Blacklist"

Blanche Sweet. the beautiful and popular star of the Lasky Company, will be seen at the Royal theatre to day and Friday in the Jesse L. Lasky production of the thrilling drama, Tho Blacklist" by Marion Fairfax and William C. De Mile, the two noted dramatists who wrote this production especially for Miss Sweet.
 The thoughts of The Blacklist struck terror to every miners heart for once his name was placed in its columns, it meant no more employ ment with a mining company. How Blanche Sweet, as a school teacher in a small mining town, forced the big corporation to abandon this pro cedure is presented in the story which is as thrilling as it is unusual.
 In the cast supporting Miss Sweet are such well known players as Charles Clary, Horace B. Carpenter, William Elmer, Jane Wolf, Ernest Joy and other members of the Lasky all star stock company.

 Producer Thomas H. Ince and Direc- tor Scott Sydney utilized nearly 1000 men in the battle scenes. Besides these men, several hundred women and children appear in the production as peasants fleeing from their homes. In one scene. a battle in which sev. eral regiments of infantry are in a hand to hand battle, is depicted. Later the retreat of an army under the heavy fire of the enemy is shown.
 Equipment for the army, including cannon, motorcycles, aeroplanes and all the paraphernalia of modern war fare are a part of the properties Of the Inceville studio. Many former soldiers who had served in the various divisions of the United States army were employed during the making of the scenes.

King states in his communication
"that many officers and men are re-

is probably right. But Mr.. King is

ing that he never received more than
about half that salary or wages in his

King wants to know, also, if it ever

sixty married men who have applied
for discharge are let go and an equal
number Of recruits are not secured
to take their place that company
will, be dropped from the regiment
and that one captain and two lieuten-
ants will be looking for employment
elsewhere.
MIR. King says:
'It is true that this regiment is
sorely in need of recruits and it is a
disgrace to the state of Montana and
speaks little for it's patriotism when
that fact is admitted"
Montana should blush, indeed! We
should hang our heads in shame at
