GREAT PICTURE IS
SEEN BY CROWDS


The Birth of a Nation was given
again before an immense audience.
That it surpassed the greatest expec-
tations is putting it too mildly. The
magnifcence and bigness of the spec
smallest detail. the greatness of it. the
dramatic strength of it, the beauty of
it startled spectators.
Now GREATNESS with the intensity of
the thing, now in tears. only to break
into laughter from some clever touch
of relieving humor. the spirit and fire
of the silent drama finds echo in the
rousng cheers Of the enthusiastic on
lockers. During the three short hours
every conceivable emotion is register
ed on the screen with such vividness
and realism that 1t is reflected in the
hearts Of all who see it. The immen-
sity and scope Of it are simply over
whelming.
Here are hundreds of scenes with
thousands of actors. Now a great
army is pushing it's way across wide
valley, and the next instant we are
enthralled in the pains and sorrows
of a southern lass.
Now we see the great Lincoln brood
ing over his emancipation proclama-
ton, and the next instant he is en-
thralled with saving the life of some
doomed soldier. We are in the theat-
err, and the assassin is making his way
from his awful deed. The film un-
folds, and we see beauty of scene and
face and expression, beauty of action
and emotion.

The realism of this work Is astonish-
ing. Where there is a battle scene,
the work is SO perfect and the detail so
minute, that there is no disillusion-
ment. The charges are made. The
trenches refllled. This is real war. The
hordes Of the Ku Klux Khan make
their silent, nightly raids.
You see them riding high on some
hill. silhouetted against the rosy sky of
early morn. The effect is wonderful.
The scene changes from a magnificent
spectacle to one of an exquisite cameo
like daintiness.
THE Birth of a Nation" is a chron-
icle of human passion. 1t is true to
fact and thoroughly documented.

is brilliant, thrilling masterpiece of
historical fiction.
Always the story is told with every
device of suspense, preparation, relief

There is not human emotion that is
not included somewhere in this story,
from the greatest national problem. to
the smallest whims of a petulant girl;
from the lowest depths of villainy to
the utmost exaltation OF patriotic IDEAL

SPEAKING OF SOLIDS.

MT. Hughes and some of his sup porters sought to make headway in the late campaign by attempting to revive the old sectional issue against "a solid south"
 Take your map and look at the re- sult
 MT. Hughes was turned down not only by the solid South but by the sol id West. In fact, nearly the whole country was solid against hin. except the corner around New York and in New England, there being just a speck in New England that voted for Wilson to balance a speck iu the Far West that voted for Hughes.
 All in all, as judged by the election, it is solid country against a solid Northeast.-Courier-Jonrnal.

THE PRESIDENTS message is a disappointment to many people who looked for an expression of opinion on vital matters at issue. No men, tion was made of a food embargo so favored by certain sections of the country; no mention was made of any plans to stop speculations in food stuffs; no mention was made of pl e. paredness legislation; no mention was made of curtailing the ativities of spectators in cereals; the issue between the United States and Mexi- co was not touched upon. and very few matters of interest to the prole- tariat were mentioned.

NEW ROAD FOR
 REGION WILL BE ASKED

SEATTLE. Dec. S.-Lieut. Col. Wilds P. Richardson, U. S, A., chair man of the Alaska Road Commission, will urge the war department to con struct trunk line road to, open up the Seward Peninsula, according to a number of Nome residents now in Seattle. The proposed road would run from Nome to Candle Creek, and cost approximately $200,0O0, says the Times.
 The Nome Chamber of Commerce will start letter writing campaign, which will notify every Senator and every member of Congress that the road is essential to the success of the mining development of the region. At present the inhabitants of Candle Creek and other mining centers on kotzebue Sound are compelled to de- pend on the mosquito fleet plying Boring Sea during the summer.
 Last season because of heavy gales. many of them were compelled to re- main in during the winter or make the 3O0-mile trip over unbroken trails to Nome. The construction of trail will enable them to get out by auto mobile or team.
 A comprehensive road system for the Seward Peninsula has been out lined by the Nome Chamber of Com merce and as soon as the Candle Creek road is constructed another will be run along the coast to the Cape Prince of Wales district, where the miners also are dependent on the storm tossed mosquito fleet for trans portation.
 The Alaska Bureau of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce will be asked to urge the proposition at Washing ton.

A TIME FOR FAIR DISCUSSION.

The American Federation of Labor announces its unalterable determina- tion to fight any attempt to enact laws in this country which shall for bid both sides in labor dispute from beginning labor war until there has been an inquiry on behalf of the gen. eral public and an impartial deter imitation of the merits of the quarrel. The Federation declares that any such law will impose form of in- voluntary servitude.
 This is merely an attempt to make an argument by calling hard names. Nobody who favors compulsory me- diation thinks of making any man work for nothing and nobody seeks to compel individuals to remain in an employment indefinitely against their wills. The proposal is that men who have chosen certain work for them- selves and desire to continue in that work, but at higher pay or under i'm proved conditions, shall not all walk out at once and shall not be locked out to the harm of the third persons whose rights are as sacred as the rights of those engaged in the dis pute. That is something very differ ent from involuntary servitude.
 The subject of compulsory media ton is one that must be fully and fairly discussed in this country. We were brought to the brink of great railway strike few months ago and that was averted by the passage of a law which seeks to force upon the railroads certain buroens which they are unwilling to bear. The railway trainmen accepted a law of that character in their favor and are pro- ceeding to act under it. The Fcder- ation's attempt to close all argument and start fight now before the sub ject comes up for general discussion is not wise and fair.-Exchange

of modern progress. An entry on this page concerns one Dorion who con- structed a notable machine for the slaying of men, which, in the hope that 1t would necessitate peace, he named "The Ender of War"
 How many humane inventors have since travelled on the road of Dorion: : And how many machines have since been constructed to slay men, but no end of war in sight through all the ages that have passed since Dorion's s day. The very doctrine of present decadence, which is the universal be lief in our modernity we used to call fin de seicle, turns out to be of i'm measurable antiquity. The only ex tant bit of written human speech, a rapyrus, discovered some time since. the age of which is reckoned at sixty centuries, is vail at the sad falling Off of the then modern world. As suredly there are a great many cid 'hings undec the sun.
 There is a subject, however, upon which Solomon, with all his wisdom, was not qualified to say the final word. It is a resanoble assumption that man who had thousand wives had more than his share of mortal joys and tribulstions. The freshness of life does not lie in the complexity of accumulations of civilization, iE books (of the making of which there seems to be less end than ever) or even in the latest products of inven- tion and science-telephone wireless telegraphy, flying machines and the rest. It lies in the heart and soul of man and each of us may be as young today as the first primeval man or yet the sprightly and cheerful brother, the anthropoidal ape.
