..THE BARRIER"

From the first showing Of "The Bar
rier," by Rex Beach, from his famous
novel, at the Broadway theatre, New
York, this wonderful picture has
proved an amazing success. 1t cap
tured the big audience at the very
start. It held them breathless thru
scene after scene of swift, stirring &C
ton. 1t called forth waves OF ap-
plause as the thrilling climaxes were
reached. And all because "The Bar
rier" is a great picture greatly pro-
duced-the highest development OF the
photodrama.
A unique phase of the New York
run is that the press has been abso-
lutely unanimous in praise of "The
Barrier" which is being presented un-
der the auspices of Lewis j. Selznick.
The entire production was made un-
der the direct supervision, of Mr..
Beach himself, who organized the Rex
Beach Pictures Co., to produce in NOV
ing pictures his many popular novels.
"The Barrier" will be seen at the Prin-
cess on May 80 and 81.

MAY OPERATE O-W.
AND N. P. AS one
Plans for Unificati0n of Railway
Lines in Yakima Valley Are
Being Considered

Altho as yet no definite plans have
been announced for the unification OF
the railroads operating thru Kenne-
wick it is not improbable that within
q short time the Northern Pacific and
the O-W. will be operated locally as
one line.
Concerning the plans for the unifica-
ton of the railway lines in the Yaki-
ma Valley, the Yakima Daily Republic
says:
Plans for unification of the Northern
Pacific and O-W. r. & N. lines in the
Yakima valley have been worked out
to such a degree that they are fairly
definite and on their way up to the
regional government railroad officers
for final consideration, so some consol-
idation Of the two systems is likely to
take place within the next few weeks,
according to unofficial information on
the subject. 80, ~ r
Official sources of information are
closed in regard to this matter. !.
General Superintendent /. B. Rich
ards of the Northern Pacific and N. j.
Buckley, of the O-W., accompanied by
General Superintendent ]. 81. O'Neill,
of the Great Northern, were together
in this city for a part of a day this
week. Their visit primarily was for
other purposes, it was claimed; but 1t
is reported that some consideration
was given to the unification problem
and that inquiries were made among
local railroad and business men as to
the feasibility or desirability of such
a move.
When unifcation is undertaken here
it may go to the extent of a practical
merging of the O-W. with the N. p
from Walllula to Yakima, the whole to
be operated as part of this division
of the Northern Pacific.
Railroad men take the ground that
efficiency, and the utmost service to
the nation will determine what is to be
done. They point out that under this
theory the O-W. with its better grades
between Kennewick and this city
would be used for all westbound
freight traffic at least, while the Nor.
thern Pacific tracks would be used fol
eastbound trains.
Wherever possible, it is predicted
the business over both lines will bt
handled at one station. This would
be possible, it is claimed, at all sta.
tions of both lines from Yakima tt
Granger, and at most of the stations
east of Granger.

in BED AT COMMERCIAL
Was Not Ill but Complained of Feel'
ing Tired When He Retired :.
Body Awaits Burial - /,

A. C. Cessna, salesman for w. I.
Tracy, Percheron stallion dealer, was
found dead in his bed at the Commcr-
cial Hotel Sunday mor,Ing. Mr.. Cess
M. returned Saturday evening from, a
trip by auto to Walls. Walla. Cpon
arriving at the hotel he complained
Of being exceptionally tired and spoke
Of a pain in his chest which he thought
had probably, been caused by muscles
strained in cranking the car. Death
was undoubtedly due to heart failure.
It is thought he must have been TAX
en- ill while undressing, as when found
he was only partly undressed and was
lying on top of the covers with the
extra bed comfort over him.
! Little is known Of Mr.. Cessna's for
mer life, or of the whereabouts of his
relatives. He was about sc years OF
age and is thought to have wife and
, married daughter living in Oakland.
California, but all efforts to locate
them have been unsuccessful. He had
been in the employ of Mr.. Tracy for
about four years.
No funeral services have been held
and the body is at the Mueller under

of further efforts to locate his rela-
tives.

PEOPLE ARE URGED TO
CUT DOWN ON WHEAT
Food Administration Asks that No
Wheat be Used Where Such al
/. Plan is Possible A. -

. Be is resolved by the, county, food
administrators of the state of Wash
ington: -
That in view Of the present world
need, the saving of wheat for human
food be urged upon all citizens;
That a special appeal be made to
all who can do so to use no wheat for
food until after the next wheat har-
vest;
Z That the county commissioners OF
the several counties be asked to pro-
vide the legitimate local expense of
the county food administration under
the head of their police power;
That the giving of banquents at un-
usual hours be- disapproved except
where no foods are used that need to
be conserved;
That the attention of the farmers be
called to the rule forbidding the use
OF millable wheat for animal feed;
That the appeal for food .conserva-
ton be broadened into general ap-
peal for increased economy.
With the adoption of the above
resolutions, and also vote to continue
the use of $3.50 bread in hotels and
restaurants, county food administra-
tors of Washington outlined a def
mite program at meeting in Spokane
Wednesday, with Federal Food Ad-
ministrator Hebberd.
Every county was represented and
questions and discussions took a wide
range, but reports nearly all showed
that the organizations are in good
shape, the people taking food conser.
walton in good spirit and many said
they were having no trouble. The ad.
ministrators present were men and
women who have taken leading part
in their counties in war work, there
being two women administrators.
A question of paying for the wheat
to be returned now was brought nI
and Mr.. Hebberd said the grain cor
poration would pay for it, if the deal
ers did not care for it. - ssz 3,
The question of continuing the bak-
ing of $3.50 bread came up at the
close Of the meeting. Some favored
the Oregon policy Of 1890, but quite
a few of the administrators urged that
the bakers were getting in a position
to make $3.50 bread, and strongly
opposed any change now.
