AN AUSPICIOUS EVENT

The formal inauguration of Dr.. E.
I'D. Holland as president of the State
sCollege OF Washington is an aus
spicious event in the history of Pull
han. Never before have so many
distinguished visitors from all sec
! lions OF the country been assembled
IN this city. Today Pullman is the
educational Mecca of the United
Plates 1t Is a great privilege for
tny community to entertain these
leaders in educational thought and
work Their presence is an inspira-
pom. Their words of wisdom are a
tlmulant to broader and better
thinking. Their manifest friendship
or and interest in President Hol-
ana are a gratifying and convincing

Pullman, Wash, Friday, March "a, 1916

agricultural counties will have very
little influence in the election next
fall. The last legislature passed a
law requiring the registration of Vot-
ers in the country as we'll as in the
city precincts. BY the provisions of
this law registration officer is APP
pointed in each precinct who shall
designate a place where the regis
tratiOn books will be kept. The
books cannot be taken from the
place designated and all voters must
90 there TO register.
There may be some doubt as to
the intent Of the trainers OF this
law, but there is no doubt as to the
effect, The vote in the country pre-
cincts will be greatly reduced. The
books have been open for registra-
tion for several weeks, but in no
precinct have more than a small
fraction of the voters registered. If
they do not register before spring
work begins, they are not likely to
do it at all
The last session of the legislature
was controlled by the machine politi-
clans and the liquor interests had
large representation, though probab-
ly not a majority. 1t was the vote
of the country that put the prohibit
ton law on the statute books of the
state. The more this vote is re-
duced, the better chance there will
be of amending or repeating the law.
1t is, therefore, easy to see why the
wet representatives and senators
were in favor of requiring registra-
ton in the country precincts.
In order to sign initiative or refer
endum petitions voters in the coun-
try precincts must now be registered.
1t is, therefore, easy to see why the
opponents of direct legislation want
ed to require registration of the
farm voters.
The country vote has always been
thorn in the side of the machine
politicians. They have been strong
in the cities but weak in the agricul-
tural districts. 1t is therefore easy
to see why they favored any meas
ure which would tend to reduce the
voting strength of the tillers of the
soil.
The law imposes a needless incon-
venience upon the farm ers in requir
ing them to register. 1t cannot be
justified on the ground of preventing
fraudulent voting, for this evil has
been confined to the cities. 1t is lit
tie trouble for the city resident to
register. He has but to walk a few
blocks to reach the registration Of
flee, for in the large cities the reg
istration books are taken into each
precinct. But in the country dis
tricts conditions are different. Many
farmers have to drive miles to reach
the registration office in their pre-
cinct. During their leisure season
the roads are often impossible, and
during the busy season they can not
spare the time.
But, unfair as the requirement
may be, it is now the law, and the
only question is whether or not the
country voters will permit it to have
the effect which its hackers hoped.

War Brides does not pretend to

which actually surpasses anything
done on this continent to show actual
war conditions. This was a huge
trench. four stories deep, in which
the life Of the soldiers is shown and
the sudden and unexpected manner in
which whole companies may be killed
without even seeing the eremy.
"Nazimova as Joan, the widow of a
young officer. and Gertrude Berkeley
as the officers mother have two
roles which for emotional intensity
probably never nave been equalled on

INC one who previously saw War

that 1t could be produced as q mo.son
picture with hundreds Of striking
scenes to make it filrs event. But
this has been done, and has been man
aged so cleverly that never during the

Nazimova must be mentioned that Of
Gertrude Berkeley. who, as the moth

she might almost have been said to
eoual the star at times.
"The picture all through shows evil

firing effort The mastery Of detail,
which might seem at glance to be q
little thing, but which is in reality so
important, is ingeniously handled
There is never sign of a let-down
during the entire picture, which grad
ually works up to a climax.
"When the real crux Of the picture
was shown the sheer mastery Of it
swept the audience off its feet, and
for a moment pandemonium reigned
and there were calls for Brenon all
over the house.
Sometimes it is difficult to dis
criminate between masters Of modern

agreed that the man who shows the
finest sense of proportion, who keeps
the interest Of his audience continu-

has a careful care for psychological
