"The Sentimental Lady" the latest
master production in photodrama
which is TO be presented at the Ma
jestic tomorrow, affords Irene Fen

tional chance to demonstrate her
adaptability to screen work. The plot
in which she portrays Amy Cary, "a

a compact, stirring tale of Ameri-

edy that appeals strongly and imme-
diately. In it Bob Nelson, young

of virility, courage and action that
leaves a pleasant impression and
brings out in striking contrast the

TENTATIVE AGREEMENT
ON NEW ARMY BILL

Washington, May 3.-Conferees of
the senate and house on the army bill
have tentatively agreed to the organi-
zation plan of the army as proposed
in the senate bill, both as to general
divisions and the various units of these
divisions, except the field artillery. The
house units for the field artillery it
is said. will be accepted by the sen
ate conferees.
Champions of the senate bill believ
ed tonight that acceptance Of their
method of organization would lead to
final approval of a regular army OF
10000 fighting men in time Of peace
capable of expansion to 100000 men
in time Of war, or threatened war. All
of today was devoted to discussion OF
organization, but tomorrow the con
fereeS expect to reach the federal vol
mteer reserve and national guard fea
lures. which will preciptate prolonged
debate
Under the organization scheme as
tentatively agreed upon. there would
be added to the present strength OF
the regular standing army thirty-four
infantry regiments, ten cavalry regi
men;s. fifteen field artillery regiments,
five regiments OF engineers, ninety.

Palace Today.

Palace oday
Yes, there is real venom sometimes
in the making of movies. And il
helps the director to make the movie
move.
For example, in William Fox's mas
terful production, "A Wife's Sacri-
fee" which is shown at the Palace
today. the villain Peppo (Stuart
Holmes) gives a coin to hand or
gan grinder, who has a real monkey
to attract attention and coins.
Now little Jane Lee, one of FoX's
tots, hates monkeys. But she hates
villains more. Holmes makes such
a capital villain that little Jane can
not prevent her hatred from showing,
just as the children land some grown
ups) cannot help Kissing the bad
man in the melodrama.
1t chances that little Jane in "a
Wife's Sacrifice" has to show her
hatred for Peppo (Mr. Holmes in the
fesh). She does it by kicking at him
end sticking out her tongue, the
worst insult little girls know. One
even notes in the picture that there
is real hatred in it. And there IS.

What Germany Risks.

Convinced that a considerable part
of the English people in the early
days of August 1914, We're opposed
to war with Germany, Dr. Bernhard
Dernberg admitted that it was
blunder, though probably. not a crime
for the imperial government to pur-
sue course that compelled all loyal
Englshmen TO unite in support Of
their government when war was de-
clared. In its reply to the presi-
dents last word in the submarine
controversy. Germany has the op-
portunity to repeat that blunder or
TO avoid IL.
There are many naturalized Amcri-
cans or born Americans of the Ger
man race who have given their sym
pathies to Germany in this war. That
friendship and support might be Of
even greater value after the war
when it could be manifested in many
ways less culpable than the methods
some German-Americans have adopt
ed during the continuance of hostili-
ties. Yet should Germany refuse
compliance with our demands and
persist in lawlessness until rup-
ture of relations was followed by war
she, would drive every man of the
German race In this country to de.
clare himself either for Germany or
for the United States. This nation.
said Abraham Lincoln, can not en-
dure half slave and half free. 1t
neither could por would remain one
twehtieth Prussan after war began.
The greater part of those who have
sworn allegiance to our government
would support it. All who did not,
for their own comfort and the free
indulgence of their preferences,
would be compelled to go elsewhere.
After the war Germany would find
that she had no friends in this coun-
try.
Many costly ships belonging to the
great German navigation companies
are in our harbors. In war they
would be taken for our use-not by
confiscation, for we have given them
asylum, but to be paid for after the
war. But. much as she might need
money, Germanys direst need then
would be of means to rebuild her
ruined and prostrate sea trade. Her
rivals will be leagued against her,
perhaps. and she would be without
the vast commercial fleets that have
made Hamburg and Bremen busy and
rich cities. She would be in sorry
plight, and precious years would be
lost before she could begin her fight
for her vanished commerce. The loss
of her ships, though, would be but
one item in a dolefully long account
If the men of the admiralty have no
head for figures, Or. Eernberg can
tell them what it will mean for Ger
many if at the end of the war She
finds herself without a friend on
earth save the weak nations that will
have shared her defeat.
Senator Hustng is right. If Ger
many's friends in American want this
country kept out of the European
war they should address their pray
ers and protests to Count Won Berr-
storff or to Won Bethmann-Hollweg.

"THE CHANCES ARE"

The political prognosticator has had
his work cut out for him in this cleo
ton campaign. Colonel Harvey with
his two excellent and accurate guesses
is predicting Hughes by safe margin.
The betting interests agree with
Harvey as the wagers of big money
10 eight on Hughes. But neither the
conclusions of Colonel Harvey or that
of the betting contingent is an election
count.
a number of votes" count in this
election. the progressive vote and the
vote of German Americans and other
so called hyphenated votes. Moreover
the woman vote is to bear an impor-
tant part in the final result And the
labor vote.
THE chances are in favor of the re-
publican nominee. In the first place
the republican party has not been de-
feated when it was united within the
last quarter century. 1t appears to be
well united party this year ma
tionally. If the apparent cohesion Of
the party proves true on election day
It will win as it ought to win.
The chances are for republican
victory.

CERTIFICATES OF CHARACTER.

WallaceS Farmer comes forward TO
bear witness to the character OF Ed
Meredith, declining to discuss issues
but .impelled and actuated by sense OF
fair play. And this is part Of what it
says of Meredith;
We have known Mr.. Meredith ever
since, as a farm boy of twenty, he
came 10 DeS Mo!neS TO help his grand
father publish the Farmers Tribune.
Insofar as we have both been engaged
in publishing farm papers in the same
territory for twenty years or so, we
have been business rivals. And dur
ing all of that period, we have been
adherents of different political parties
We can fairly claim, therefore, freedom
from the suspicion that what we nave
to say Of him is Influenced either by
business or political friendship
Mr. Meredith was clear eyer.
clean-cut young man, full Of energy,
and ambitious TO succeed in business
way. He has succeeded, but he has
been a fair competitor He has never
tried TO build up his own business by
tearing down another Wallace's
Farmer cheerfully bears testimony to
the effect that he is a man iof his word,
who says what he means and means
what he says, and who has served the
agricultural interests to the very best
Of his ability. 1t is not necessary that
we should deal with the specific at
tacks which have been made upon him,
further than to say that in our opinion
they are not justified, and give who'll

as a man.
AS for Mr.. Harding. we have no per-
sonal knowledge except such as we
have gained from his record as a pub
lie officer in the Iowa legislature. and
we assume that our readers are ia
miliar with this record
Wallace's Farmer, refusing to dis
cuss political issues refuses to remain
silent; the Des ,Moines Capital. refus-
ing support to both candidates also
was !mpelled to come forward to res-
tify as to the character and ability and
public spirit Of Meredith.
But all the neutral newspapers of

legislative record.
Meredith's record is written in a
splendid business career, successful,
public spirited and honest that brings
his competitors forward to certify to
his high character and fitness for high
office of trust.
Mr. Harding's legislative record is
in black and white on the records of
Iowa assemblies.

fact is they are not doing it.

If Harding is elected-as we believe
he will be-then we may hope to nave

Are the brewers and distillers and

VINO BEARS FALSE WiTNESS7

The Sioux City Journal. sponsor and
apoligist for the Sioux City candidate
fer governor Of Iowa says:
The saloon is an issue in Missouri,
Nebraska and South Dakota. In all
these states the liquor interests are
putting UP stiff fights to defeat pro-
hibition. $ > Wet sympathiZers, re-
Gardless Of partisan politics, are rally
ing about candidates for political office
who are known to favor retention OF
the saloon. Tens Of thousands Of dol
lars are being expended by statewide
organizations in each Of these states
to bolster up the political interests Of
the saloon. Obviously the money has
been contributed by distilleries, brew
cries, wholesale houses and saloons
having a direct financial interest in
continuing the legal sale Of intoxi-
cants. In the Iowa campaign
there is no local option league" or
prosperity league or any other or
ganization working in the interest OF
the liquor traffic Not a dollar
not dime--is being spent in the in
terest Of the wet cause, either directly
or indirectly, in Iowa.
Midas Criterion, published in Chi
cago the official organ Of the Ameri-
can wine and whisky industry in
its current issue editorially under
the head Paradise Lost or Regained''
says:
The fight against prohibition is by
70 means confined to these states
where the issue is to be put to the
voters. States that will consider the
proposition of aridity are not whit
more important to our cause than
