"The Scarlet Road" George
Kleine photodrama, released through
KleineJ Edison Features, will be shown
at the Bismarck theatre today. This
is said to be one of the most forceful,
interesting picture plays ever Ipro-
duced in the Kleine studio, where SO
many Of the acknowledged best pic
lures of the country had their incep,
ton. "The Scarlet Road" is staged
with intimate care to details, the cast
featuring Malcolm Duncan, Anna @.
Nilsson and Della Conner, is far
above the point of mediocrity and the
technique Of the film itself is perfect
"a combination that certainly should
spell success. The plot deals with
the story of young man, Harry Ire
maine, an accountant with an invent
i've turn of mind, who in spare mo-
ments has invented an aeroplane in
which he has great confidence, but
lacks capital to develop it. His moth
ers dearest friend, Mrs. Holbrook,
whose daughter, Alice, is engaged to
Tremaine, offers financial aid, but her
prospective son-in-law will not permit
her to risk her money in his VEN
lures. Accidently young Tremaine
gets glimpse of cabaret life in the
night festivities of New York and it
interests him nightly. About this
time his father dies and Tremaine
is Unexpectedly left fortune of $780,
900. Although his wedding day with
Alice has been set, Tremane, now a
devotee Of Betty Belgrave, a cabaret
dancer, begins to neglect his fiancee.
Finally the rupture is complete and
Tremaine follows the gay life, pluck
ed by the Belgrave girl and bled by
parasites whom she sponsored. Ire
maine at last is broke financially and
is quickly forsaken by his ''fair day
friends. He recalls letter left for
him by his father, suggesting that,
when his fortune is gone, he visit his
fathers hunting cabin and there he
will find a way out of his troubles.
He does so and finds a hangman's
moose dangling from the ceiling.
Quickly then the story leads to a pow
erful climax, but not until it is told
how Tremaine "braced up complet-
ed his aeroplane, made fortune and
is reunited to his first betrothed,
Alice. The explanation of the hang
mans moose and the shower of gold
that followed Tremaine's effort to de-
stroy it, is graphically portrayed and
completes wonderfully fascinating
film story.

The story Of the World Film pro-

House Peters and Barbara Tenant
in the leading roles, will be the at
traction at the Grand theatre today.
The picture opens with two New
York physicians congratulating each
other upon the almost certain discov-
cry by DR.. Annersley of cure for
cancer. Julia, the doctors sister, en-
tiers and states that she left Girls
void, an admirer, at the door. Her
brother explains to her that the rea-
son he did not enter was because
for some time he has owed him a
debt of honor and has failed to pay
it.
DR.. Annersley writes Griswold de-
handing payment within "a hours,
threatening physical violence in the
event of his failure to pay. A short
time later Griswold is found murder
ed in his apartment. The threaten
ing letter from DR.. Annersley and the
doctors pistol are found in the room.

tial evidence fastens the crime upon

PAVING SUIT.

Little or no showing is being made
by the opponents of paving. In view
of the fact that no materials have
been selected, the protestants are
merely guessing at the costs. The
Tribune is publishing today some au-
thoritative costs upon paving, which
show how ridiculous and extreme are
the figures advanced by those oppos.
ing the Improvement.
Now that legal issues have been
raised, there will be no delay in get
ting the real facts before the court:
It probably is just as we'll to fight the
out now and clear the
boards early, so that future progress
can be expedited.

MERELY A RATIFICATION,

1t was to be expected that the meet
ing of the Republican state central
committee yesterday would be more
or less in the form of ratification
Of the June primaries. The voters of
the state went on record emphatically
for certain issues; most of which
have been incorporated in the Repub-
lican' platform. f11 ~
Lynn J. Frazier and his associates
were in the saddle as Tar as all vital
matters were concerned. 1t was his
privilege to select chairman of the
committee and to have an important
part in framing the platform. For
those disappointed in the results last
June to oppose his wishes regarding
campaign arrangements was uncalled
for.
If the platform were distasteful and
the officers of the state central COM
mittee hostile to the Republican can
didates, one would have been repudi-
ated and the others ignoNd.
The solution yesterday was the best
under the circumstances. Mr.. Frazier
and his associates have endorsed Mr..
Hughes, Mr.. Fairbanks and Senator
McCumber. They have subscribed to
the National Republican platform. In
fact, the entire Republican ticket,
state and national, will be supported,
regardless of any utilization with the
Non-partisan league
There is nothing to do now but to
work for Republican victory.
While there may be strong differ
ence of opinion upon the merits OF
certain issues, nothing can be gained
by reviving the acrimonies of the re-.
cent primaries.

THAT PACKING PLANT.

Surely the North Dakota Society of
Equity is not going to commit blum
der by locating the proposed packing
plant at Fargo, situated on the east
ern boundary line, far from the stock
and grazing center of the state. Pack
ing ventures have been tried at Fargo
before and failed because of it's unfa-
vorable location.
Most of the stock is raised on the
Missouri Slope and in the Mouse
river district. IMandan or Minot az
locations are infinitely superior to
Fargo. The Tribune believes Mandan
is ideally located for the plant be.
cause of its excellent drainage, good
water supply, transportation facili
ties and its proximity to the stock
producing areas of the state.
A plant located at Fargo would
come into keener competition with
South st. Paul than one at Mandau
or Minot. If the committee is locat
ing this plant under the guidance OF
business considerations, Mandan
should be selected. Sentiment or DO
litical pressure should not be permit
ted to enter into the decision. Farm
ers of the state are not going to buy
stock in plant unless it is favorably
located.
II the committee is deadlocked OF
packed in favor of Fargo, the entire
matter should be put up to the Equity
convention when it meets this winter
and let the delegates settle the loca
ton. g..
